One protester stated they had formed a National Rural committee that was supposed to meet with the Police Minister Bheki Cele to speak about the farm attacks, however, farmers and farm workers are still under attack.
The protestor went on to say that farm attacks affect food security in the country, reports eNCA. The protestor added that he travelled from East London to Cape Town to have his voice heard about the farm killings.
