Sassa pensioners march to Parliament
August 27, 2025
|Cape Argus
LONG queues, system breakdowns, unpaid grants, discrimination and poor treatment saw 150 pensioners and supporters march to Parliament yesterday, demanding a full review of the SA Social Security Agency (Sassa).
Organiser Pat Lee said the protest was about more than individual cases.
“This is not for just a specific group of people, but for everybody who is a Sassa pensioner, (people) from all walks of life, colours, and creeds, and we know that our voices will be heard,” Lee said.
The march started on the Grand Parade at the corner of Lower Buitenkant and Darling streets, before proceeding up Buitenkant Street and turning into Roeland Street, where participants gathered outside Parliament to hand over a memorandum.
Among the marchers was 68-year-old pensioner Joy Pinn, who recounted a case at the Sassa office in Wynberg that left her shaken.
