President Cyril Ramaphosa has sent a firm warning that no violence will be tolerated during the National Shutdown planned by the Economic Freedom Fighters (EFF) on Monday.
Ramaphosa was speaking to the media following the Tanzania-South Africa state visit taking place at the Union Buildings in Pretoria.
“Security forces of our country are going to defend our people. They are going to make sure that intimidation, anarchy and disorder does not prevail but those who want to protest by all means protest peacefully. But if you are going to restrict the rights of other people, if you are going to coerce them, if you are going to intimidate them, the security forces of this country will defend the people. This I must make clear.
