IFP makes election threat

This Day in History: 15 March 1994
Officials of the Inkatha Freedom Party (IFP) announced that they would not present their list of election candidates to the Independent Electoral Commission (IEC) unless their constitutional demands were met. Following indications by opinion polls that the African National Congress (ANC) would win free and fair elections in KwaZulu-Natal, IFP leader Chief Mangosuthu Buthelezi cautioned that a liberation war was imminent if elections proceeded without him.
