“This is in implementation of the directive of the national body of NUSA that all chapters should actively campaign against crime.
“NUSA thanks everyone who contributed to the success of the march and uses this medium to reiterate our stance against crime, that NUSA has zero-tolerance for such crime.
“It’s the tradition of NUSA to partner with any cause that will make the Republic of South Africa a better place for all. NUSA has ZERO tolerance for crime #NOTINOURNAME,’’ Salihu said.
