A Civic Movement Progressive Forces of South Africa (PFSA) is picketing outside the High Court in Pretoria ahead of the case between the Zambian government and the family of the late former president Edgar Lungu.
The matter concerns the repatriation of Lungu’s remains to Zambia.
He died in June last year at the age of 68 after developing complications following surgery.
The Movement’s President, Mthetho Ngcukayithobi, says, “As black South Africans, we are still fighting the displacement during colonisation and apartheid, and graves play a very significant role in the process of claiming the land, and we don’t want the Lungu descendants to claim land in the future used by their grandfather.”
Ngcukayithobi says, “The Zambian community and government want to repatriate their president and give him a befitting burial, so we are in support of that.”
