Thokoza, also referred to as Tokoza, is a township located in the Ekurhuleni municipality of Gauteng, South Africa. It is situated southeast of Alberton and lies adjacent to Katlehong. The area is notable for being the site of the now-defunct Palmietfontein Airport.
Historically significant as the first black township established in the South, Thokoza became a focal point of political conflict during the early 1990s. During this period, it served as a primary location of unrest between supporters of the African National Congress (ANC) and the Inkatha Freedom Party (IFP).
