Gun Free South Africa is launching a Gun Destruction campaign today in front of the City Hall on Darling Street between 12 at noon and 2 in the afternoon.
The campaign will call the South African Police service to put more effort in the removal of guns from wrong hands.
According to Gun Free SA, this country has one of the highest gun related murder rates in the world, the GFSA will today show the community how much they don’t want guns in the society. They believe that gun violence is the threat to the right to life ad bodily integrity.
Thembani Dyule from Gun Free South Africa said,
“As yesterday was Gun Destruction Day, we are asking our government, departments that work with the police force and the army to destroy more guns.”
“We believe that if we by destroying one gun, many lives are saved and by destroying more guns, communities are going to be safer and the so does the whole country”
