DA calls ANCYL 'clowns' in spat over load-shedding march

The ANCYL said the governing party was part of millions of South Africans calling for an end to load-shedding.

“We want to issue a stern warning to the DA that should they continue with their planned march, they will find us there,” the ANCYL statement read.

The league said it would lead the DA to Eskom, “where we must all get answers and solutions to end load-shedding”. It blamed minister of public enterprises minister Pravin Gordhan for some of the power utility’s failures, adding that he should be released from his duties.

EFF leader Julius Malema said the DA should avoid marching to Luthuli house.

“A party shouldn’t march to another party. In case you are not good with direction, the seat of power is at the Union Building, not Luthuli House. Be warned,” Malema said.

Meanwhile, some social media users have been posting an old video showing ANC supporters beating up people in red T-shirts outside Luthuli House. Here are some of the comments on social media:
