Lusanda Bill

The South African Communist Party in Gauteng has strongly condemned the attempts by the Johannesburg Housing Company to stop its weekly protest action.

Residents have been holding weekly pickets at the JHC and interdict against the picket was issued by JHC. 

SACP Provincial Spokesperson Lucian Segami said this attempt by the JHC to stop the pickets will not work. 

Segami said it is in our right to demonstrate and call for the return of the stolen building out of which thousands of poor people were evicted. We also support the right of the new town housing cooperative residents to return to their property.

SACP’s Lucian Segami added that today the Congress of South African Trade Union will be protesting outside the JHC.
