Lumka Maqhubela calls on the government to step in if police cannot protect women in Ekurhuleni.

“It's clear that we are not safe, we cannot be told by the police to be more vigilant. They should be doing more to make our communities safe – what else are we expected to do? We are not safe anywhere, not in our homes, not in the streets, it needs to stop.”
