March and March describes itself as a “citizen-led movement advocating for stronger immigration enforcement”. It seeks to protect opportunities for South African citizens, it says.
“I plead with you Zulu nation; I request you, let no blood be spilt. Don’t beat them (foreign nationals)”, said the King.
King Misuzulu revealed that he had spoken to the leaders of the march, including Phakel’ umthakathi, real name Nkosikhona Ndabandaba and Ngizwe Mchunu about maintaining peace.
‘Let no one be beaten’
“Let no one be beaten,” King Misuzulu repeated.
“No one wants to feel pain,” he added.
The King said that people are always looking for greener pastures for the sake of their families. Some are in South Africa out of desperation due to poverty in their own countries, he added.
