Summary
Large crowds marched through Mthwalume in KwaZulu-Natal on Thursday as Jacinta Ngobese-Zuma led the second leg of anti-illegal-immigration protests.
Ngobese-Zuma said the group was back on the streets because the government had failed to act on its concerns, and vowed to intensify efforts to remove illegal foreigners.
The renewed march follows last Thursday’s nationwide “shutdown,” staged after the group gave illegal foreigners a June 30 deadline to leave South Africa.
The protests come as the government says it is working with leaders from some African countries to coordinate the safe repatriation of foreigners who chose to leave.
