Craighall Park residents gather along various intersections on Jan Smuts Avenue to show President Jacob Zuma their lack of confidence in his leadership.
“I’m marching because I’ve had enough and this is a beautiful country,” said protester, Penny Bramwell-Jones. “It’s time everybody stands together and speaks up. I’m tired of Zuma stealing from us. Zuma, you are stealing from us, from our children, from our grandchildren. All of our tax money has been fiddled away for your own selfish ways. We’ve had enough of you and have no respect for you. Zuma, you are junk.”

“I’m so unhappy with Zuma; he’s not my president,” said Jabane.
“I don’t want us to end up like Zimbabwe. We are the best part of Africa. I cannot just sit and complain on Twitter. And I’m not immigrating for this.”
