NATIONAL NEWS - The families of Frik Potgieter and Peter Huxham will be holding a peaceful protest at Africa Energy Week in Cape Town, tomorrow, Tuesday 5 November.
The protest aims to appeal to representatives of Equatorial Guinea, who will be in attendance at the conference, to consider clemency for the two men who have been unlawfully detained in Equatorial Guinea since 9 February 2023 (over 634 days on Tuesday).
The families will also be appealing to South African Minister of International Relations Ronald Lamola, and his UK counterpart, Secretary of State for Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Affairs, the Rt Hon David Lammy to find an urgent solution to Potgieter and Huxham's ongoing detention in Equatorial Guinea.
Both ministers are in Cape Town on Tuesday, and Lamola will be speaking at the conference on Wednesday.
