Anti-illegal immigration group March and March has weighed in on reports of an imminent arrest of its founder and leader, Jacinta Ngobese-Zuma, and the Acting Chief Executive Officer (CEO) of the South Africa First Forum, Xolani Zuma.
On a Facebook post this morning, Zuma, of the SA First Forum, said that he had been advised that a warrant of arrest had been issued against him and Ngobese-Zuma.
The movement said it views, what it calls a reckless and politically motivated move, as a deliberate strategy from the Presidency to plunge the country into chaos, intimidate civil society, and avoid the political embarrassment faced by the former ruling party ahead of the November elections.
“We are being intimidated for fighting for what is just and noble. We will continue to expose government failures in border security and systemic corruption that prioritises foreign nationals over South African citizens,” part of the statement reads.
The movement has also called for the immediate deployment of the South African National Defence Force (SANDF) to neutralise illegal mining syndicates operating in various parts of the country.
It has also reaffirmed its resolve to proceed with its scheduled Thursday peaceful marches, which it says are aimed at putting pressure on the government to prioritise South Africans, secure borders, and restore law and order.
