Inkatha Freedom Party has vowed to challenge no-go areas wherever they
come across them and especially at Clermont Township. The party adopted
this position yesterday at the meeting between its eThekwini District
Executive Committee and the leaders of its Inner West Constituency, at
Pinetown Civic Centre. At that meeting, some leaders of the IFP at the
Inner West (Pinetown and surrounding areas) recounted acts of
intimidation and harassment that supporters of the IFP have suffered at
the hands of ANC supporters at Clermont Township.

The IFP Spokesperson in eThekwini Joshua Mazibuko said: "It is very
unfortunate that fifteen years into democracy, we still hear stories of
intimidation and harassment of South African citizens for no reason
other than expressing their political preferences which happen to be
different from preferences of those who see themselves as owners of
Clermont. As the IFP leadership in eThekwini, we are going to devise
strategies to put an end to no-go areas wherever they are found, as well
as to all such undemocratic behaviour."
