KwaZulu-Natal premier Thami Ntuli commemorated Africa Day with a march and gathering at the Durban Playhouse on Monday.
The premiers office said in the wake of a prevailing climate characterised by social movements calling on the immediate deportation of undocumented immigrants and recent developments in KwaZulu-Natal, Ntuli remained committed to addressing the issue of undocumented foreign nationals using all legal systems at the disposal of the provincial government, including the laws that govern immigration.
Members of March and March, Operation Dudula and the Amabhinca Nation have increased clean-up campaigns, mainly in KwaZulu-Natal, in the past month. The groups have increased their focus on forcing undocumented migrants out of the country, claiming they rob locals of jobs, threaten the economy and are responsible for criminal syndicates.
