Five ANC youth league supporters were shot at with rubber bullets by the SAPS when the SANCO sanctioned march to the Nelspruit Golf Club got underway this morning.
The march was also supported by the EFF led by its provincial chairperson, Collen Sedibe.
There was chaos when a police officer told the youth league that he was calling off the march because of the tyres incident, but youth league provincial chairperson, Tim Mashele, provincial secretary, Pholoso Mbatsane and other officials negotiated with the officers to proceed to the gate.

The leadership, Mashele Mbatsane took responsibility to take care of the situation. The memorandum was delivered by the youth to Mathonsi and golf club management and the EFF also delivered their own memorandum.
