South Africa’s jobs crisis has reached a boiling point and today civil society organisations lead a major march to Durban City Hall.
Protesters are demanding urgent government action to protect employment and revive collapsed industries, with many accusing authorities of failing workers.
Our reporter Mlondi Radebe who is in at the Durban city hall has more.

Jobs must be re advertised in all government for South African. Foreigners legal or illegal with SA ID must be removed. Those Jobs are not scarce skills. Foreigners tuck shops must be boycotted.
Shout out Jacinta🎉, she is always for the people ❤
Honestly our government has no idea how people are suffering these days. I much feel sorry for the disabled and homeless people who don't get the help they deserve..
Who do you want to create those jobs for you?
Real
Foreigners are taking ur jobs
OK, do you the youth of sa only want a 30% education given to you by this pathetic anc government and do most of you understand what I'm asking you?
If the sheep keep voting for the ANC nothing will change until you stop voting for those clowns.
We talk about the samething as sa citizens everyday there's a problem in our country with no action
Protests today weekend comes and the drink together
Hahaha love this. They voted for this and fighting. Hahaha talk about fighting your own brain😂😂😂😂😂😂
Indigenous people are house slaves still begging for European aliens to hire them
I don't see youth there. More youth must take part in this protest, for the sake of our future
The same way they put SANDF on the street during COVID,they must do it again for deportation of illegal immigrants
This is what we need from South Africa. What's happening in higher institutions of learning needs to be stopped, prioritizing foreigners is madness!
Crazy how SABC is part of the false narrative. It's not a joblessness protest/march and you bloody well know it. There is nothing noble about protecting illegal foreigners who are damaging our country. Out here mislabeling what the outrage is about.
WRONG! THIS IS A MARCH AGAINST ILLEGAL IMMIGRANTS
Ramaphosa hates black south africans
Keep voting anc
Big up to yo selves 🙏🏾 comrades for taking a stand south Africa must wakeup amandla 💪🏾✊🏼
They will still vote for ANC and come back toyi toyi when the things got sour 😂😂😂
Every week there's a protest but nothing happens. It's because these protests aren't real protests. It happens today and tomorrow it's over
There must be a total shut down. Not only for just a day but if possible for the whole week. Because honestly these protests do not really impact the economy that's why they'll never take us serious
Jobs are destroyed by importing goods that we could be making by ourselves. Chinese imports have killed industries.
No this is all wrong , they are just using foreigners as a scape goat. The reason for the high crime isn't done by immigrants

Lol just iamgine budget was tabled on the 12 of March,till today they are playing swing with it,what a joke nation.
The problem is simply speak with the government to cancel the R350 and take the same money investe in companies the job is done . Malema did say that stop buying everything from china .bring all this companies here we creat jobs for non employments .just imagine is they can open companies like make tyers wheel 🛞 shoes 👟 brand like Nike adidas puma many jobs will be open this is how you open jobs
No one with connections was here. 😂
There is only ONE reason for the high levels of unemployment…It is called BBBEE…This racist policy will never be abolished by the racist government, because that is their conduit for theft, graft, nepotism and self-enrichment …. Expect unemployment to escalate much more, tax base to dwindle and government to run out of money for handouts….Things are going to get much, much worse before they get…even worse than that….BBBEE afraid…BBBEE very, very afraid…
Keep voting ANC. Viva joblessness
Honestly we are being failed by our government
Blame the black government. They let illegals in and have jobw now. Must be the white man's fault as usual
What is the colour of the border patrollers skin……no surprise
Blacks will create their own problems and still blame whites
Do not fight against your own compatriots! Africa, unite.

Why are you protesting,isn’t this what you voted for?
The problem here is not the immigrants but the companies and government itself. Companies will continue to exploit as there is a high demand of jobs but really aint no supply for those jobs, its economics. They will issue out entry level jobs and disguise them as internships just to pay a graduate 6k meanwhile they want some graduate with experience most of the time.
Even with the Restaurant jobs like waiter, Should be a students job to make a living not people outside that age group, but then again they want want those typa people with "commitments" because they "need" that job per say. This is where immigrants come in because if you dont take that job, they will.
Their mandate is not to secure the future of South Africans and when they eventually do, they apply this racist race quota nonsense too. How much longer must the rest of South Africa wait in queue for a job. No, these employment policies are against human basic rights.
The solution is in who you vote forTime for change. .
Goom gooms can't run or maintain a society
And they could never create one
After 35 years ago apartheid is still to blame for poverty?
The country is burning and the president is smiling-a clear sign of mental retardation-30 y in power and the country is rotting-shameful and disgusting
