Thousands of people march through the city centre, to the South African Parliament, waving South African flags and banners, to call for the South African president to step down on April 7, 2017, in Cape Town. The protest comes after South African President Jacob Zuma dismissed widely respected South African Minister of finance, Pravin Gordhan in a cabinet reshuffle.
