The South African Communist Party Gauteng Province has postponed its planned march which was due to take place tomorrow (07 April 2017), but will now take place in the next two weeks.

This follows a correspondence received from the City of Tshwane declaring our march illegal based on clear directive it received from National Treasury which strangely refused to receive our memorandum of demands. Having considered all the options, we have since decided not to defy but to abide.

We are however deeply shocked by the collaboration between National Treasury and the DA controlled city of Tshwane to attack our constitutional right to march.

This will not deter us from intensifying our struggle against rampant corruption, day light theft and unashamed looting and corporate capture of the state by a parasitic network of corrupt elements.
