Operation Dudula has announced several plans to intensify its campaign against foreign nationals in the country.

Operational Dudula has confirmed it’s in talks with lobby group AfriForum to discuss a possible collaboration on several issues.

Advocate Mthuthuzeli Vimbi, who represented the Gauteng health department in the court interdict to prevent Operation Dudula members from blocking and intimidating patients at Kalafong Hospital in Tshwane, said he was willing to take the matter back to court and force police to act.

Operation Dudula members called for the police district commissioner in the West Rand Fred Kekana to step down.

Operation Dudula wants all foreigners to leave SA, while Nhlanhla Lux only wants to “get rid of” illegal immigrants.

Operation Dudula claims foreigners are taking jobs from South Africans and contributing to crime in the Western Cape.

The group launched its North West branch in Rustenburg on Wednesday just weeks after KwaZulu-Natal.

Organisers say Rustenburg which is home to mining and agricultural industries is plagued by drugs, prostitution and human trafficking and they blame this on illegal migrants.

Operation Dudula commended its supporters for not responding with violence when they were “provoked” during their march in Durban on Sunday.
