FF Plus calls on Ramaphosa to act on farm murders
FF Plus MP Dr Corne Mulder says the incident underscores farm attacks
The Freedom Front Plus (FF Plus) political party is urging President Cyril Ramaphosa to address the issue of farm murders in South Africa. This comes after the death of 55-year-old Hannetjie van Zyl, who was allegedly attacked on her farm near Ottosdal in the North West province on Monday night. She later succumbed to her injuries while en route to the hospital.
The FF Plus believes that the inclusion of a video by US President Donald Trump featuring white crosses honoring white victims of farm murders may bring attention to the issue and prompt resources to be allocated for curbing farm attacks. The party's Limpopo leader, Pimani Baloyi, discussed the memorial with the FF Plus, highlighting the gravity of the situation.
FF Plus MP Dr Corne Mulder emphasized the need for President Ramaphosa to condemn the song "Kill the Boer, Kill the Farmer." He requested the president to acknowledge the reality of farm murders, express condolences to van Zyl's family, and unequivocally condemn the song.
