SA opposition party clarifies stance on immigration

Date: May 23, 2024

South Africa's (SA) opposition Economic Freedom Fighters (EFF) Member of Parliament Mbuyiseni Ndlozi has clarified the party's stance on immigration.

Ndlozi's comments come amid criticism from South Africans that the EFF endorses an open border policy.

The former EFF national Spokesperson says that his party's stance includes that of regional integration which involves a collaborative effort among neighboring countries, their governments and people.

"South African people should know that we are not part of that nonsense of irresponsibly opening borders encouraging un-documentation.

“We will document people, regional integration is going to be gradual with the consent with other governments of the continent which is important because if there are centralized data base systems you won't commit a crime in SA and run to Mozambique.

“If there is regional cooperation we've got access to whoever it is in the continent. Their DNA and so on and so forth. You can't mess up with the hope that you will go somewhere and not be found."
