Before telling other Africans to leave SA, it is worth remembering that over 100,000 South Africans live, work, and run businesses across other African countries, and there are also SA companies operating widely across the continent. What applies to others should apply equally to them. We are also waiting for the 30th of June!

@tarapoconnor @CyrilRamaphosa You don't understand we don't want poor people but skills poor people must stay at home and not be a burden on us.

Africa’s brightest are shunning SA because South Africans - especially officials think it’s ok to disrespect them, to exploit them, to harass them! Shame on SA. The rest of Africa welcomed South Africans with open arms during apartheid…@CyrilRamaphosa

I have stopped going to South Africa for any international conferences for mainly 3 things. 1. Border police rudeness: Some years ago I was invited for a conference on conflicts in the Horn in South Africa. I showed email invite to the border policeman at the desk. He rudely asked: "but why can't you people hold your peace conferences in your homes. Why always come to South Africa?" - I think he had a point. Why must we? Second time it was worse - "But why are you Zomallis and Ethiopians always here." I reminded him I was actually Kenyan, and I was only in the country for 2 days for an international conference Reply: "Sheh, um, eh. But what is the difference" 2. As soon as locals figure out you are a black person, possibly African from another country, the automatic assumption is that you are an illegal migrant. You see immediate hostile reaction. Honestly, I found SA one of the most miserable places on earth in terms of peoples' attitude to foreigners. The visceral hatred towards fellow Africans is unnerving. Still one of the most beautiful geographies in Africa. 3. The state bureaucracy and departments filled with people who actually know very little about the outside world. Most of the best people who made South Africa an outward-looking African power are gone. All remaining are small-time apparatchiks stealing from the state and fat toads serving as diplomats. I feel sorry for South Africa.

Lungi, a South African woman living in Germany tells a story of Zimbabweans who use fake South African passports and claim to be South Africans in Germany.
She met Privilege a Zimbabwean woman who allegedly got into Germany with a fake passport and could not renew her South African passport.
Lungi blames the Department of Home Affairs for allegedly selling the country to illegal foreigners.

South Africa is a xenophobic nation. South Africans are xenophobes. This is well known globally.
No amount of PR or clean up can wash that away.
@CyrilRamaphosa and his acolytes must be brought before the ICC the same way he hauled @netanyahu before the ICC.
The Border Management Authority SA@TheBMA_SA
[UPDATE FROM THE INTER-MINISTERIAL COMMITTEE ON MIGRATION!!!] We also need to vehemently correct the false narrative that South Africa is inherently xenophobic or unwelcoming to people of from outside our borders. South Africa has historically welcomed and continues to host people from diverse countries across the globe. Our nation remains deeply committed to the African Union Agenda 2063, which seeks to promote a better, more integrated Africa for all. As a constitutional democracy, we fully comply with international migration frameworks and remain a committed signatory to numerous global conventions that promote human dignity, equality, and the rule of law.

Mmusi Maimane said South Africans are lazy and unemployable because of lack of skills.
The same Mmusi Maimane was unemployed for 7 years until South Africans decided to vote for him again.
Today he is speaking nonsense about us!!!!!

Official immigration statistics from @SundayTimesZA and @StatsSA.
The vast majority of migrants into SA are from 3 of our 6 neighbours: Zimbabwe, Mozambique & Lesotho.
Virtually nobody from our other neighbouring countries: Namibia, Botswana, or Swaziland.
Newlands, South Africa 🇿🇦 English
@Kaypoisson1 Tunisia bo, yes we are better economically that's why all of you are jealous and want to be South Africans you don't understand that you can come and live here LEGALLY but you are still a FOREIGNER

Dear Xenophobic South Africans 🇿🇦,
For those of you who foolishly think you don’t have your people in other countries, and that even if you do, they are all staying there legally,
On March 1, 2026, 63 South Africans were deported from Ireland to South Africa.
This operation was carried out by the Garda National Immigration Bureau.
10 (~16%) of the deportees were convicted of offences in Ireland.
This is how civilised countries handle illegal immigration.
The country doesn’t allow citizens to behave like animals, go around beating up anyone who doesn’t speak their language, loot their shops, and dehumanise them, as is happening in South Africa.

The next FIFA International Break is on the 21 September to October 06.
Bafana Bafana will be participating in Round 1-4 of AFCON 2027 Qualifiers
There is not enough time for a completely new coach who does not know our league & players.
SAFA has two optioms:
1. hire José Riveiro, or
2. Extend Madala's contract till December 31.
Otherwise we will find ourselves struggling to qualify or on the backfoot...
