“I’ll be travelling to other African countries to encourage citizens to hold their governments accountable and build better nations" – Leader of a South African anti-migration group, Phakel’umthakathi

The leader of a South African anti-migration group, Phakel Umthakathi, says he will be visiting other South African countries to encourage African nationals to hold their leaders accountable and build better nations so that they’d have no need to migrate to other African nations for greener pastures.

Phakel said this at a press conference on Thursday, July 2. Addressing his ‘’African brothers”, he said

‘’I am going to visit you, my brothers and sisters, in your countries to revive the spirit of Africa. You must fight for your country. If they k!ll you, they must k!ll all of you. You can’t be scared of de@th”

Phakel led the South African anti-immigrant campaign that has seen many undocumented African nationals, including Nigerians, leave their country. 

Over 800 Nigerians have fled South African following the anti-immigrant protests. Aggrieved South Africans accuse foreigners, including Nigerians, of taking the job opportunities meant for them and introducing crime into their community.
