'Return land or we'll take it back' - BLF
Cape Town – A protest march to Remgro in Stellenbosch on Friday was a warning to billionaire businessman Johann Rupert and others, Black First Land First (BLF) said.
"This is just a warning that we are coming for the land," said Western Cape convenor Ncedisa Mpemnyama outside the office park (see memorandum here).
They were preparing members to take back land in Franschhoek, where they believed Rupert owned at least 14 farms.
"We are also coming for Christo Wiese and Whitey Basson, because white monopoly capital is an integrated system where they control everything."
Mpemnyama said that all of South Africa's problems could be solved with land because it provided jobs, security and "all those things that make life worth living".
