'Zuma must go march': Protestors want Zuma to be held accountable
Updated | By Anelisa Kubheka
President Jacob Zuma must be held accountable and lead by example.
The sentiment emerged at the 'Zuma Must Go' march in Durban yesterday.
Similar events were held in Johannesburg and Cape Town.
Protestors marched along Pixley KaSeme Street, formerly West Street, to the Durban City Hall where a press briefing was held.
Siphokazi Mkhize, who coordinated the Durban leg of the protest, feels Zuma's actions boil down to corruption.
He believes civil society has the right to call him out for this.
"Our tax is being misused. That must stop. People need service delivery, but because the money is being misused in some sectors and corners of government, people are denied services and no one is accountable to anybody," he said.
The South African First Forum's Vytjie Mentor who march in Cape Town believes the country's facing a constitutional crisis.
"The judiciary is under attack, the judiciary is a saviour when all fails as a country but also the issue of service to the people and not to the politicians themselves because we know service delivery is getting worse and worse," she said.
