Hundreds march in Durban to protest against undocumented foreign nationals

Loading player...
Various civic organisations, backed by a few political parties and labour unions, took to the streets of Durban on Monday to voice their concerns about high illegal immigration levels in the country. Scores of marchers, the majority of whom are youth, said they are standing up because South Africa’s future is in their hands, and they want the government to take action against undocumented foreign nationals. They said that the high number of undocumented foreign nationals has a significant impact on unemployment levels, safety, security and the socio-economic well-being of South African communities. Phemelo talks to march organiser, Jacinta Ngobese-Zuma.
