ANCYL march for economic freedom heads to JSE

The ANC Youth League's march for economic freedom, which will culminate in the handing over of a memorandum to the presidency on Friday, is underway.

Just over 5 000 supporters, who have gathered from all over the country to support this action made their way to the Johannesburg Stock exchange in Sandton, where ANCYL representatives were expected to hand over a memorandum. The youth league have advised that details of the memorandums will be made public, once they have been handed to the respective institutions.

Over a thousand JMPD and SAPS staff have been monitoring the march and so far there have been no incidents . From Sandton the mass action supporter will make their way to Pretoria where an overnight vigil will be held at the Caledonian Stadium. A representative of government is expected to take receipt of a memorandum at Union Buildings on Friday morning.

I only have one thing which is we made it as the first black youth leaders out of dark ages that our fore fathers fought we managed to get our vision and objective mission across without a single outcry of violence as discipline young people from all different poor corners that we decided to desert for two days and walk for better tomorrow for us and the those that are coming,i am proud even if i dont live to hold this in my hand and certain that they will enjoy what i have walked for my kids.
