ICYMI: President Cyril Ramaphosa has called on South African companies not to employ undocumented foreign nationals to avoid tensions with citizens in the country.

Ramaphosa says this is against South Africa’s values and warns that such actions could lead to vigilantism. He was addressing residents in Koster in the North West during the official commemoration of Human Rights Day.

“We should not allow ourselves that those who come from other countries, see ourselves being at war with them because it is unSouth African. The challenges of unemployment that we are facing should never mean that we should go and wage war against those people from other countries because once we do that, we just immediately promote this spirit of xenophobia that now we hate them, that they must go.

What is being done about foreign nationals operating businesses and not paying a single cent in taxes?

Close the borders you so gracefully flung open to the masses, Cyril. No visa, I guess no passport in many cases too.

Day by day you nearing being Zuma my G, like why don't you just deport the niggas, cz niggas are here to be employed, unless you want them to go help unFIX PRASA for a living. Level 5 Mmusi OperationDudula

Bathong! Not because it's against SA Labour laws?

Wow

So, it is not because it is illegal but just to avoid tensions ..... This country is cursed.

Forward

wanyela... who said we want that.. we dont want them to employ foreigners at all.

Do an audit of government employees. You will find illegal immigrants at the highest levels.

Mxm as if he cares about citizens of this country 😒😤

NakhokonkeDube good!!

CyrilRamaphosa tell your counterparts to come and fetch their people here coz they're causing unnecessary tention.

Tilly_Tetelo Is that all he can do wow what a president we have

Bad leadership.

Ninon_DeLanclos But this is simple; deport undocumented and/or illegal foreigners 🤷🏾‍♂️

For crime like murder and rape the death panelty that will make criminals think twice and no perole that's the only way peace and justice will prevale for our next generations.

All foreign nationals. All Documents are fake

There is a war going on in SA, crime! Mama Mhlungu! & you talking about 'tension'? Heibo wena, you giving me a 'tension'headache!!!!,😠

It started long ago, go to all the Pakistan's, Indians, Chinese, Somalians, Ethiopians you'll see how much they foreigners is paid. If you a woman they have sex with you in the shop for work- disgusting

What.! . To avoid tensions

And all those employed who cannot get work permits who had work permits who have been in factories for over 20 years who are paying SARS allowing the regime to draw fat cat salaries. No...this was instituted by Mbeki and enhanced by Zuma. Try this with Nigerians.

I hate when politicians speak like they making suggestions c'mon youre the flipin president ACT !

The commander in chief is begging private sector not to employ illegal immigrants (correct headlines)

But I thought Julius said Africa is Africa and there are no borders. We must allow the Brothers and sisters from North in and welcome them with good jobs.

Sandile_K14 To avoid tension ? Heban

Thank you Mr President for doing the right thing 🙏🏽

He didn't talk about labor laws no one dare to touch labor laws, why?

It shouldn't be a call to employers it must be a command to your agencies to enforce the laws.

Open the refugee center for extension and other services.👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏

As if they will listen to him😏We deserve better than Cyril

The issue has been around for a minute, he's only catching up to it trying to score some points...

Tatani mboweni yanani akaya vatami swekela tihove not anyone kweeee kikikiki matele malembe lawa talekaya tikahle

It should not be just a call but dept of labour should get on the street to search and restore order, companies doing that are just under their noses
