My fellow Zimbabweans 🇿🇼in South Africa🇿🇦, please note that South Africans owe us absolutely nothing; what owes us everything is the ZANU PF government that has destroyed livelihoods back home and forced you to become illegal immigrants.
The fact that you are hungry and sleeping on pavements in the cold is not South Africans’ problem but it is our own ZANU PF government’s failure to provide you with transport on time and process you to come back home before the 30 June ultimatum that you were given to pack and leave.
ZANU PF is sending bribed Zimbabwean celebrities with fake sympathy to provide humanitarian aid and transport so they appear as saints while they are the real devil’s advocates who want to make our South African neighbors appear as evil for demanding their country back.
Please come back home, let’s suffer together so that we get the courage to confront the source of our problems, which is ZANU PF.
Let’s stop the blame game, instead let’s thank South Africans for being very kind to us during our time of need. We have clearly overstayed our welcome! Let us not be ungrateful visitors!
There are over 20,000 Ugandan people staying in South Africa illegally.
The distance between Uganda and South Africa is roughly 2,500 miles. To reach South Africa illegally, a person must bypass at least four international borders.
If over 20,000 people are making that trek, imagine the sheer scale of migration from South Africa's immediate neighbors, who only have to cross a river or jump a fence.
The African obsession with South Africa has become deeply exploitative. We are seeing South Africa being treated as a universal safety valve for the governance failures of the rest of the continent. It is an unfair burden on a single nation's infrastructure and taxpayers.
The dream of a Borderless Africa sounds noble in a boardroom, but in reality, it would be the final blow to the few working economies left. You cannot have open borders when economic disparity is this vast. It doesn't create unity, rather, it imports poverty and collapses systems.
We are currently witnessing a massive immigration crisis that threatens South African schools, hospitals, and social stability.
Before we talk about visa-free travel, we must discuss economic convergence. Other nations must become livable so their citizens aren't forced to flee.
South Africa cannot be the refuge of last resort for 1.4 billion people. Protecting South African borders isn't anti-African, it is an act of national survival.
Until the continent stabilizes, the romantic idea of a borderless Africa remains a recipe for total collapse.
