The demonstrators walked from their homes in Alexandra to the regional municipal offices in Sandton on Monday.
JOHANNESBURG - Protesters from the Alexandra total shutdown movement have decided to head back to the township after Johannesburg Mayor Herman Mashaba again failed to accept their memorandum.
The demonstrators walked from their homes in Alexandra from the regional municipal offices in Sandton earlier on Monday. “We’ve realised that this issue of Mashaba not coming to Alex, he is simply disowning Alex. I don’t know whether Alexandra falls under the City of Johannesburg anymore. They’ve isolated us as ANC. I don’t understand if they’ve checked the membership forms of the people to prove that fact.”Democratic Alliance premier candidate Solly Msimanga has blamed the African National Congress for conditions in Alexandra.
