EFF to march against the 'existence' of Orania
Orania is a white separatist town founded by Afrikaners located along the Orange River in the Karoo. Provincial chairperson commissar Shadrack Tlhaole told SABC News that despite discussions between the Freedom Front Plus party and leaders of Orania, the march would take place because the EFF wanted to see other races living in the town. 'We believe that segregation is what destroyed our country ... what we raised with the community of Orania and its leadership is something that we must stand against and defend the interest and sovereignty of this country,' said Tlhaole. The party called on the government to review Orania's existence and for the dismantling of the town which was 'brewing' racism, segregation and trampling on principles. TimesLIVE
