South African president, Jacob Zuma has pulled a massive shocker
after announcing an immediate ban to all citizens from Southern Africa.
Effective immediately, citizens from these countries will no longer be
allowed in South Africa in what Zuma called a temporary freeze : Angola,
Botswana, Lesotho, Malawi, Mozambique, Namibia, Swaziland, Zambia, and
Zimbabwe.
The news was met with resistance from various stakeholders and
diplomats from the affected countries are said to have called an
emergency meeting. Speaking form the parliament, Jacob Zuma said the
countries in Southern Africa are responsible for the rampant job loss
among local South Africans.
“I want South Africans to have jobs before others but it’s the other way round. Why should my child suffer while my neighbor’s child eats in my field?”, Zuma said.
Another reason that Zuma highlighted was the alarming crime rates. He said foreigners from neighboring countries commit crimes and run away from their countries, mostly illegals.
“All foreigners currently in South Africa from the affected countries will be vetted and if found to have contravened, they will be sent home immediately”, Zuma announced.
There was no word on how the affected countries would respond to Zuma’s shock announcement.
