ICYMI [VIDEO]: The EFF has called on the government of Rwanda to pull out of the asylum seekers and refugees agreement with the United Kingdom

The U.N. refugee agency also voiced opposition.asylum seekers and refugees agreement

EFF Spokesperson, Leigh-Ann Mathys, “The Rwandan government is forcefully entered into this immoral slave trade arrangement in exchange for millions of pounds. The EFF calls on the Rwandan government to cancel the agreement with the UK and allow the former colonial masters to address the question of immigration on their own.”

“We must ensure that the only route to asylum in the UK is a safe and legal one,” Johnson said in a speech in Kent, southeast England, where thousands of migrants in small boats landed on Channel beaches last year. “The deal we have done is uncapped and Rwanda will have the capacity to resettle tens of thousands of people in the years ahead,” he said.The plan drew strong criticism from opposition parties, with interior minister Priti Patel’s Labour Party counterpart, Yvette Cooper, saying it was costly, “unworkable and unethical”.“People fleeing war, conflict and persecution deserve compassion and empathy.

Patel signed the partnership agreement in Kigali on Thursday, and she presented it at a joint news conference with Rwandan Foreign Minister Vincent Biruta. The migrants will be housed temporarily in facilities, generally hostels or hotels, in Kigali while their asylum claims are looked into, Rwandan government spokeswoman Yolande Makolo told Reuters.

What right does he have to go to say that.

The So-called EFF should close their stinky mouths out of other countries affairs. EFF should focus on South Africa issues. The EFF are killing white farmers across South Africa on a daily basis, no one is talking about it.

That's what's up all over the world now. Countrys are now Putting their Citizens first!! So those skilled Africans must come back to Rwanda, then go back to their own home countries and fight their own governments for developments. This One Africa slogan is Dead!
