Tembisa residents joined the call for illegal immigrants to leave South Africa ahead of the June 30 deadline imposed by March and March and other civic organisations.
South Africa’s security authorities say coordination has been strengthened ahead of planned nationwide demonstrations set for June 30, following a high-level engagement between SAPS, PSIRA, and private security stakeholders.
The anticipated demonstrations come amid ongoing public concern over illegal immigration, with communities in several parts of the country previously voicing calls for stronger government intervention. The planned action follows a series of demonstrations in recent days in some areas, where residents have raised safety and service delivery concerns linked to undocumented migration.
Acting National Police Commissioner Lt Gen Puleng Dimpane said the meeting was aimed at improving joint planning, communication, and operational readiness.
“We have just concluded a successful and constructive engagement between the South African Police Service, PSIRA, and representatives of private security companies from across the country,” she said.
