I find it very insulting that Minister @mmkubayi can talk about the plight of artist to the public without talking to me first. I know nothing about SA artist gigs being cancelled. We can’t be held hostage because of gigs, Abahambe 🤛
SAPS Arrests Nearly 1,900 Illegal Foreigners In One Week Under Operation Shanela
@SAPoliceService
The South African Police Service (SAPS) says it is intensifying nationwide efforts to combat illegal immigration and related criminal activities through its ongoing high-density crime-fighting initiative, Operation Shanela.
According to SAPS, a total of 1,891 illegal foreigners were arrested during the past week for contravening the Immigration Act.
The arrests were made during intelligence-driven operations, tracing operations, roadblocks, stop-and-searches and multidisciplinary law-enforcement initiatives conducted across all nine provinces.
Police emphasised that these operations form part of broader efforts to combat crime, maintain law and order, and address challenges associated with undocumented persons operating unlawfully within communities.
Since 1 January 2026, SAPS has arrested 29,371 illegal foreigners nationwide, highlighting the scale of ongoing enforcement efforts.
Police also revealed that between 1 April 2025 and 31 March 2026, a total of 76,588 illegal foreigners were arrested across South Africa.
Operation Shanela remains one of SAPS’ flagship crime-combating initiatives and continues to deliver results in the fight against serious and violent crime.
In addition to targeting illegal immigration, the operation has contributed to the arrest of wanted suspects, the recovery of unlicensed firearms, the confiscation of drugs and the disruption of criminal activities in various communities.
Acting National Commissioner, Lieutenant General Puleng Dimpane, reaffirmed SAPS’ commitment to enforcing the law without fear or favour, while ensuring that all operations are conducted within the framework of the Constitution and applicable legislation.
Police have also urged communities to work with law-enforcement agencies by reporting criminal activity and to avoid acts of vigilantism, intimidation or violence against foreign nationals.
SAPS says it remains committed to maintaining peace, stability and the rule of law, and that Operation Shanela will continue to be intensified as part of efforts to improve safety and security throughout the country.
TolAssMo was accused of rape and was acquitted in court. All the women who were on the show where the alleged rape happened, attested that he couldn’t have raped that lady because he wasn’t there on the day of the rape. He was home. To this day, no one has apologised to him.
Kanye West WILL headline Wireless festival this summer after the head of the festival backed him in a new public statement 🚨
"I am a deeply committed anti-fascist and have been all my adult life. I lived on a kibbutz for many months in the 1970’s that was attacked on October 7th, am pro Jew and the Jewish state, while being equally committed to a Palestinian state.
"Having had a person in my life for the last 15 years who suffers from mental illness, I have witnessed many episodes of despicable behaviour that I have had to forgive and move on from. If I wasn’t before, I have become a person of forgiveness and hope in all aspects of my life, including work.
"What Ye has said in the past about Jews and Hitler is as abhorrent to me as it is to the Jewish community, the Prime Minister and others that have commented and - taking him at his word - to Ye now also.
"Forgiveness and giving people a second chance are becoming a lost virtue in this ever-increasing divisive world and I would ask people to reflect on their instant comments of disgust at the likelihood of him performing (as was mine) and offer some forgiveness and hope to him as I have decided to do"
My brother, I know I don't know you... but, as a man, I know you're fighting battles that most don't know about.
Please keep your head up & don't give up on yourself.
You're not alone. ✊🏽❤️
