Black First Land First has said it's "taking over" the Sodwana Bay Lodge in KwaZulu-Natal as a precursor to the party's programme to revoke "apartheid-styled" land leases.
Sodwana Bay Lodge's current manager, Herman Combrinck said in a statement an interdict has been obtained against the BLF members who have
been at the lodge since last Friday.
"At least four people affiliated with BLF are at the hotel," Combrinck said.
BLF Leader, Andile Mngxitama denied that they are illegally occupying the lodge. Mngxitama also responded to the interdict saying: "It's a sillyand stupid interdict which got nothing to do with the lease agreement."
"A lease agreement, legitimate exist between BLF and the landowner, now you have this Jan van Riebeeck people who are trying to do Jan van Riebeeck things - trying to claim that they own a property that they don't," Mngxitama said.
BLF has taken over the operation of the hotel. See the statement by Sodwana Bay Lodge below.
