Jacinta Ngobese Zuma Announces Another Protest at Moore Road in Durban

• March and March leader Jacinta Ngobese Zuma announced plans to return to Moore Road in Durban on Thursday
• The group has vowed to hold weekly protests until the government acts on undocumented foreign nationals
• Her post came days after the group's Che Guevara Road clean-up turned violent, with injuries and arrests reported

SOUTH AFRICA - Anti-illegal immigration activist and March and March leader Jacinta Ngobese Zuma called on her supporters to join her at Moore Road in Durban on Thursday, 11 September 2026. She posted the rallying message on 9 September 2026, pushing back against accusations that the movement's actions amount to xenophobia.

"Tomorrow we are back on Moore Road. We will not allow our government to gaslight us into believing that it's xenophobic to demand for this to end!" she wrote.

Moore Road has become a flashpoint in the ongoing tensions around undocumented foreign nationals in Durban. A large number of foreign nationals have set up camp along the road amid escalating unrest in the city.

What March and March is demanding

Jacinta went further in her post, challenging what she described as a double standard applied by authorities. She argued that if undocumented individuals are permitted to live on the streets while NGOs shield them from removal, then the same freedom should apply to South African citizens. Her message was blunt: the law, as it stands, is not being enforced equally.

The group has committed to staging protests every Thursday until they believe the government has taken decisive action on undocumented foreign nationals in South Africa.

The planned return to Moore Road follows a turbulent week for the movement. Last Thursday, March and March's clean-up operation at Che Guevara Road in Durban descended into violence. Several people were injured and arrests were made, drawing national attention to the group and reigniting debate about the methods being used.

March and March plan second June 30

Briefly News aslo reported that the March and March Movement announced 30 September 2026 as its next national day of action targeting illegal immigrants in South Africa. The organisation said the upcoming protest will be bigger and better organised than the June 30 demonstrations held across the country. The movement announced this while protesting outside the SADC summit in Durban, calling on all regional heads of state to act against illegal immigration.
