Did the Constitutional Court just change South Africa’s asylum laws? When will @ParliamentofRSA do the right thing?
Here’s what the judgement actually says.
#ConstitutionalReform
Minister Mmamoloko Kubayi: "This is factually incorrect. The Ghanian national who was fatally wounded was attacked at his place of work on Monday (not on protest day), in an incident that the police believe to be extortion related. It is concerning that Ghanian authorities continue to communicate false information about South Africa regarding developments on migration. No fatalities have been recorded during the day of the protests. The spread of false information to perpetuate the false narrative that South Africa is xenophobic is unacceptable"
3 Nigerians have been arrested after one of them opened fire on South Africans who were peacefully marching.
The Nigerians drove towards the marchers, rolled down the windows, declared war on South Africans & just started shooting.
Fortunately no one died, but the marcher who was shot is in hospital get treated.
Following the shooting the Nigerians ran away and left their car, thats when the marchers retaliated by destroying the car.
Nigerians must account.
Nigerians must be dealt with.
media houses like ENCA, Newzroom, SABC, and others will never report this story💔 fortunately SAPS has confirmed the story
Do you understand why Palestine is in the state it's in today? Outsiders arrived as immigrants, settled permanently, took control of the land, and gradually displaced and oppressed the indigenous population. Exactly what we are seeing right now in South Africa.
The legacy media and @GovernmentZA have embarked on a psychopathic propaganda campaign to discredit March and March, @JacintaNgobese, and anybody who dares complain about illegal immigration, while shielding illegal foreigners.
In this investigation, I cut through their lies and distortions while providing harrowing evidence of the reality that these illegal immigration supporters do not want you to know.
@IOL@News24@SABCNews@Our_DA@MYANC@EFFSouthAfrica stop misleading the public! The time has come to share the truth.
Apartheid government partnered with governments in the SADC region to send their labour to SA in an effort to isolate and weaken black South Africans, the ANC government continued with this practice hence the crisis we have today.
Let us pose a question that demands an answer. Now that Europe has passed a bill to deport and reject asylum seekers, will African countries Ghana, Zimbabwe, Nigeria, and the rest boycott European companies the way they boycotted South Africa? Will they call for sanctions against France, the UK, Germany, and the Netherlands? Will they march against TotalEnergies, Unilever, Shell, and Barclays? Will they flood Twitter with hashtags condemning European "xenophobia"?
Because here is the truth, European companies are everywhere across Africa extracting oil in Nigeria, mining gold in Ghana, drilling gas in Mozambique, building dams in Ethiopia. They pay little tax, repatriate vast profits, and leave behind environmental destruction and labour exploitation. Yet not a single African government has threatened to expel them. Not one activist has called for a boycott of French perfumes or British banks.
But when South Africa a fellow African nation dares to enforce its borders, suddenly we are the villains. Suddenly we are xenophobic. Suddenly we are betraying the continent. Meanwhile, Europe is deporting Africans en masse. The EU just voted 418-218 to make deportations easier. Patriots chanted "send them back." And Africa? Silence.
Why is South Africa held to a higher standard than Europe? Why are we the only country expected to absorb the world's failures while every other nation secures its borders without apology? Why do African leaders rush to criticise us but refuse to criticise the very European nations that exploit them daily?
We are not the enemy. We are not the coloniser. We are not the exploiter. We are a sovereign nation with our own poor, our own unemployed youth, our own collapsing infrastructure. If you will not boycott Europe for deporting your people, do not boycott us for securing our home. The hypocrisy is deafening. And we are done pretending otherwise.
BREAKING: Malawians are on strike. They are now protesting and allegedly attacking ordinary South Africans that are minding their own business. I told you that their televised departure was just a huge publicity stunt.
ATTENTION South Africans
@ParliamentofRSA has reopened public submissions on the Constitution review.
SACR is collecting inputs via our Google Form to ensure public voices are included.
While legal opinions are still being considered on the previous process (which we are reviewing for possible legal action), we won’t sit on the sidelines. we will continue engaging and participating actively.

She raises very valid concerns. Local traders are being squeezed from every direction. On one side, many South Africans are struggling to compete with foreign-owned spaza shop networks. Their buying power, supply chains, and market dominance have placed immense strain on local traders. On the other side, big corporations are quietly moving into spaces that were once occupied by ordinary entrepreneurs. What do you mean Woolworths is expanding into schools now? That’s how local economic opportunities disappear.
Then there’s government. They speak about empowering small businesses, yet they still haven’t properly accounted for the R500 million spaza shop support fund. The same government that is supposed to protect local economic opportunities cannot explain where the money went. Corruption has become so normal that accountability feels optional.
