PAC once again calls for the 21st of March to be officially renamed Sharpville-Langa Massacre Day

The leader of the Pan Africanist Congress , Mzwanele Nyhontso, has again called for 21 March to be officially renamed Sharpville-Langa Massacre Day.

Other political parties who also had their programmes in the same vicinity also paid tribute to those who lost their lives in 1960. Other parties who commemorated the day alongside the PAC lambasted the government for failing to recognise the day. Others said that 30 years into democracy, government has done little to nothing to change the lives of people 30 years into democracy.

ACT leader, Ace Magashule said, “The ruling party doesn’t want to recognize this day. They don’t want to recognize the PAC and the giant of Africa, Robert Sobukwe. You can see what they do on the 21 March when their president comes in they fix the road.”
