WATCH: ANCYL protesters target ABSA Ballito
This is a developing story. Stay tuned for updates
More than 200 ANC Youth League protesters are expected to gather this morning at the Ballito Junction ABSA bank.
A leaked preliminary public protector report allegedly found that ABSA illegally received a R2.25 billion bailout from the apartheid government.
The ANCYL embarked on a campaign to get ABSA to pay back the money which they say can be used for community development and education.
The league has started protesting in different branches in Durban and plan to do so until the bank pays back the money.
Local authorities are on scene.
According to the protesters, they are only ‘warming up’ and many more people are expected to arrive.
