March and March leader Jacinta Ngobese-Zuma address accusations of xenophobia amid growing tensions over immigration in South Africa.
Jacinta Ngobese-Zuma, leader of the anti-migrant movement March and March, has once again dismissed claims that the organisation is xenophobic, saying the group is “tired” of defending its position.
"Whoever thinks we're xenophobic, it's up to them. We're tired. We can't explain the same thing. It's been over a year now of explaining one and the same thing," Ngobese-Zuma said.
She was speaking on Thursday in uMthwalume, on KwaZulu-Natal's south coast, where the movement launched its weekly anti-migrant marches.
Last week, the organisation announced that it would stage protests every Thursday until the government demonstrates that it is taking the group's demands seriously.
