South Africans 🇿🇦🇿🇦will be Free in their own Country and Control the Local Economy.

South Africa is the only country in the world where you can enter as an illegal immigrant ,get a tv interview and threaten the citizens without any repercussions.Worse you can open a shop have a bank account and no one will bother you .But us the citizens we can’t even qualify to get a shop in JHB CBD .SARS checks are everything we pay tax.

There is young talent who was in Big Brother Mzansi

Who still waiting for their first breakthrough in the industry…

And there grannies who are already successful in life who wanna come for everything even in PPE tenders they’re do Taka inkwaso…😩😭😭

[ChrisExcel @ChrisExcel102]

The most effective way to fight now is to approach the landlords who rent their houses to illegal foreigners

You show us the documents of your tenants

Because we march today tomorrow it’s business as usual

Holding landlords accountable will solve 80% of this problem.

The problem with SA discourse: when a man from kasi says migrants are affecting his dignity and livelihood, the response isn't 'let's engage that seriously.' It's 'you're xenophobic' or 'you're being manipulated.' That's not debate. That's dismissal dressed up as intellect.

[Tshepo or Vusi @Mikedotcoza]

A South African is expected to provide previous records, proof of residence, medical information, a birth certificate, and parents’ documentation, yet an undocumented immigrant gets to access the school system without any of that.

Ethiopians and the Somali are having a turf war in Johannesburg, and gangs of Tanzanians selling drugs on the streets are resisting arrest and fighting law enforcement.

Happy Freedom Day South Africa♥️🇿🇦

[Thembisile Q II @ThembisileQ21]

If you're renting your house or shop to illegal foreigners, you're part of the problem too.

@OgbeniDemola There in Africa, not here in South Africa.

[Melchizedek @kras52336471087]

@OgbeniDemola You will never hear a South Korean telling a Chinese person that an Asian will never be a foreigner in Asia,

Only Africans from the failed state like Nigeria say such things

[Simplio Mdawiñez 🇲🇽 @SimplyMdawini]

I was in Ethiopia in 2023. It definitely felt foreign to me. The weather is different, the people look different, the languages spoken are completely unintelligible to me, the writing script. The music. The food.

[ChrisExcel @ChrisExcel102]

Brother

Imagine your parents working hard under the apartheid government

Risking their lives. waking up every morning not knowing they gonna come back home alive

Try make raise you so you can be a man that you are today

And you thank them by being a Step father 😭😭😭

I found it so arrogant that schools would forbid the black child from wearing isiphandla but the Indian child could wear the Bindi on their forehead AND wear a hijab. I truly hate the racism in multiracial schools 🙂‍↔️🙂‍↔️🙂‍↔️

Good, now let’s talk about Nigerian celebrities that are not speaking up against bad governance 🎤

[sirhighbreed @sirhighbreed]

So if someone sees you as loyal, trustworthy, emotionally stable, kind, respectful, mature, accountable, and nurturing you feel insulted??

Yeah our generation is cooked🕊️

[Big Willy @bigwillySZN]

@sirhighbreed it can feel like an insult when someone calls you something you are not

[Phumzile Van Damme @zilevandamme]

Oof. The DA’s first tender scandal in GNU. The tender was awarded in April 2026 to Lighthouse Publishers, a Cape Town-based company with no publishing history registered 3 days before tender applications opened.

[Nkele Mogono @MogonoNkele]

30k Nigerians to be deported from Germany but guess what?
They blue ticked this and instead they focused on South Africa.🇿🇦🇿🇦

[Patriot 🇿🇦 @PatrioticNews24]

The continent has really disappointed South Africans.

You people got independence in the 60's yet you want asylum in a country that got independence In the 90's.

[Kekeletso Mohatle🇿🇦 @MPOLAI8]

This is Tumelo Gailele, after receiving multiple threats to close his spaza shop in Jabulani by the Somalians he was shot one Friday night while closing his shop.💔 No one was ever arrested for his murder. For some of 6 personal. #JusticeForMazwi
