DA chief whip Siviwe Gwarube said the party would not be deterred from its march to Luthuli House.
“We are moving, we are undeterred. We are not fighting, we are sending a message. We are saying to them, it's time you bring back our power or we will take yours,” said Gwarube.
The DA believes the ANC's corruption and cadre deployment policy are responsible for South Africa's energy crisis.
