STATUES IN SOUTH AFRICA BEING VANDALIZED

This statue of Queen Victoria in Port Elizabeth, South Africa was vandalised on April 9, 2015. The statue in front of the public library was covered in green paint. Queen Victoria was targeted on the same night that the University of Cape Town removed its statue of Cecil John Rhodes after weeks of protests by students. The Horse memorial also in Port Elizabeth, the Anglo-Boer War memorial in Uitenhage and the Paul Kruger statue on Church Plein (Square) in Pretoria was also vandalised. – Selwyn Milborrow
