After being invited, representatives of AfriForum today attended the South African National Civic Organisation’s (SANCO) protest against various issues, including farm murders. Kallie Kriel, CEO of AfriForum, was present and delivered a speech at the Union Buildings about AfriForum’s support for SANCO’s contribution to the fight against farm murders. Kriel told the crowd: “We want everybody to be safe, and the way to fight for it is to take hands and say: no more farm killings!” His statements against farm murders were met with applause by the crowd.
“AfriForum has decided to accept SANCO’s invitation. AfriForum feels it is important that farm murders be condemned by different groups in the country. SANCO’s condemnation of farm murders is definitely something we can support.
“Millions of citizens grew up in the countryside or know somebody who lives on a farm. One can therefore expect that AfriForum doesn’t stand alone in our fight against farm murders,” concludes Kriel.
