South Africa police arrest 87 people in the last 12 hours across the country over public violence ahead of planned protests
Marxist Economic Freedom Fighters opposition party has been demanding resignation of President Cyril Ramaphosa.
The EFF has called for a national shutdown to protest crippling power cuts and demand the resignation of President Cyril Ramaphosa. “On the 20th of March, we have to shut down this country to show the whole world that we are concerned about the state of affairs. We can’t fold our arms,” Julius Malema, leader of the EFF, said in a video message on the weekend.
Ramaphosa warned Thursday that the EFF’s planned protests were not a mere shutdown but an attempt to overthrow the government.
