Law enforcement agents, including the Johannesburg Metro Police Department and Gauteng Crime Prevention Wardens, are on standby for any disruptions.
"Inside here, is our president of Operation Dudula, Zandile Dabula, and deputy national organiser. They are all inside, a with few community leaders, to meet the officials of UBC and the management of UBC because we need to know about this system of registering these illegal immigrants so it must stop," said Operation Dudula’s Davis Magolego.
Community members are hurling insults as they turn back a foreign national who came here to register their business. Some of the community members can be seen throwing rocks at the car. pic.twitter.com/XtvBw8e9F9
