Pastor Bert Pretorius from the South African Community of Faith-Based Fraternals and Federations says while it may not be illegal to sing this song, doing so harms the nation.
He says such liberation-era songs perpetuate division and hostility in a society where the nation is striving for unity
"It is time to move on. While these songs hold a historical significance, their relevance diminishes in the context of a democratic South Africa," he says.
