Operation Dudula Plans National Shutdown Over Government’s SAPS Deployment Threat

Operation Dudula Plans National Shutdown Over Government’s SAPS Deployment Threat

Operation Dudula has announced plans for a national shutdown in protest against the government’s intention to deploy the South African Police Service (SAPS) against citizens it claims are “upholding the law.” The group made the announcement on Sunday in a statement shared across its social media platforms.

In the statement, Operation Dudula accused the government of shielding undocumented foreign nationals while targeting South Africans who speak out against illegal immigration, crime, and unemployment. “We cannot remain silent while our own government threatens to use state security forces against citizens demanding the enforcement of existing laws,” the statement read. “Operation Dudula will lead a national shutdown to resist this betrayal.”

The announcement follows reports that the government is preparing stricter measures against civic groups accused of taking immigration enforcement into their own hands. Authorities have reportedly placed SAPS on standby to prevent what they describe as “vigilante actions” in certain communities.

However, Operation Dudula insists its actions are lawful and aimed at restoring order, fighting crime, and prioritizing South Africans for jobs and housing. “They label us vigilantes, but we are law-abiding citizens stepping in where the state has failed,” said a regional coordinator. “If SAPS must be deployed, it should be against illegal businesses and drug dealers, not against people demanding justice.”

The movement has called on other civic groups, youth organizations, and unemployed citizens to join the shutdown, expected within the next few weeks. Specific dates and protest routes have not yet been announced.

Political analysts warn the move could heighten tensions between the government and grassroots movements, particularly in urban and township areas where frustration over crime, illegal immigration, and unemployment runs high.

While the police department has not officially commented on the planned shutdown, authorities are reportedly monitoring the situation and will act to prevent unlawful gatherings or public disruptions.

Critics argue that Operation Dudula’s methods often veer toward xenophobia and could provoke violence. Human rights groups have urged the government to address the root causes of public discontent—such as poverty and joblessness—without scapegoating foreign nationals.

As the shutdown approaches, South Africa faces a potential flashpoint that could further strain the balance between constitutional rights, civic activism, and government authority.
