Thousands of South Africans took to the streets in support of the #AntiZumaMarches today.
The march was joined by political leaders, religious leaders and celebrities all in the quest to save the “country from the president”.
The Democratic Alliance populated Johannesburg CBD, while African National Congress members gathered and demonstrated outside Luthuli House.
Congress of the People president, Mosiuoa Lekota joined protesters at Church Square, stating that he is marching with them to the Union Buildings to support their call for President Jacob Zuma to resign.
