There was drama outside Addington Primary School where parents demanding their children be enrolled blocked all the exits of the school, refusing to allow pupils to leave while profiling them according to their nationalities.
The unpleasant scenes at the Durban school began when anti-foreign nationals marchers staged a protest outside the school demanding that their children be admitted.
What should have been a peaceful march turned nasty when protesters unleashed their anger on pupils, alleging that they were not South Africans. They erupted in the song Ungayijahi impi iyabulala, loosely translated, Do not rush the war it kills.
