Earlier this week violence broke out in an informal settlement north of Durban where over 200 foreign nationals were allegedly attacked. Some fled their homes.
Speaking to the SABC’s Ukhozi FM station in Durban on Saturday, the President condemns the attacks on other Africans. “A few days ago we found out that it’s us South Africans who are attacking foreigners; that portrays us as a country that does not want to be part of other African countries. Because it shows the rest of the world that there’s xenophobia in South Africa and that’s not true. There’s no Xenophobia in this country.
“As South Africans we have never been Xenophobic and have never discriminated people from other countries. From the report I’ve heard from comrade Sihle Zikalala this was an act by criminals who decided to attack foreigners.”The President has also called for an end to public violence during protests. He says the burning of shops and factories is not the way to air frustrations and grievances.

ANC must be blamed for this,how can so many people enter the country with no papers
SABC is not the ANC marketing agency..or rather it shouldnt be. The reason we see these politicians looting and making declarations about Eskom is because we do not separate what belongs to the state and what is fincaned by their membership fees
Medicine after death. He incited it in the first place
