THE Freedom Front Plus has vowed to take "all possible legal steps" to retain Pretoria's name.
"The civil rights initiative, AfriForum, will meet with senior advocates in Pretoria tomorrow morning (today) to consider legal steps with which the registration of Tshwane as place name can be set aside," FFPlus chief executive officer Kallie Kriel said yesterday.
