Ilizwi Lamafama Small Farmers Union (ILSFU) represented 3000 members from 44 villages in Buffalo City, Ngqushwa, Amahlathi and Nkonkobe Municipalities. They supported the repeal of the BAA. However, their major concern related to the many problems that will continue even after the repeal of the Act. Those problems include: the powers of Chiefs as legislated by the TLGFA. ILSFU presented experiences of its members with regards to elections of traditional councils. For example, the AmaNdlambe Tribal Authority elected the 40% component of the traditional council from the 60% submitted by the Chief Makinana. They submitted that if parliament repeals the BAA, communities will still remain with the very problematic BAA structures. They therefore urged parliament to repeal the BAA as well as its structures.
