Communities and civil society groups in South Africa are holding marches and protests across Gauteng province, demanding greater police accountability following the discovery of the bodies of nine murdered women in less than two months.

NotInMyName International has called on South Africans, particularly men, to speak out against violence against women, saying silence amounts to complicity. The organisation says communities cannot claim to love their mothers, sisters and daughters while remaining passive in the face of violence against women.

Lulu Gaboo spoke to Channel Africa’s Reporter Michael Mbewe.

Residents in Niger State, Nigeria, took to the streets overnight to protest after at least 33 detainees were found dead in the custody of the Nigeria Security and Civil Defence Corps (NSCDC). The detainees were among suspected illegal miners arrested by NSCDC operatives on September 15 and 16 during raids on illegal gold-mining sites.

Authorities initially suspected that a disease outbreak may have contributed to the deaths. However, they later said the cause of death had not yet been established and would be determined through medical examinations.
