'Repatriate them or else': March and March flexes legal muscles

March and March, an anti-illegal-immigration organization led by Jacinta Ngobese-Zuma, has issued a formal demand to the eThekwini Municipality to remove foreign nationals from Che Guevara Road in Durban within 14 days. The group claims the presence of these individuals has negatively impacted local businesses and increased crime rates. They also urge the municipality to collaborate with foreign governments to repatriate the individuals. While acknowledging the humanity of the foreigners, the organization argues that genuine refugees should be relocated to camps and emphasizes the need for South Africans to have safe access to public spaces. The organization also highlights concerns about rising homelessness in Durban, stating that the situation undermines civic dignity and contradicts constitutional principles. The city's mayoral spokesperson dismissed the demands as misplaced, noting that immigration issues fall under the Department of Home Affairs.
