The government has been quiet for too long about this matter and the only thing that they were engaging was that South Africans are xenophobic.<\/p>\n<p>It took ordinary citizens to bring this matter to their attention and now they are being called thugs by the EFF. However, that does not mean anything because the people are more determined to continue with the fight than ever before.<\/p>\n<p>Now the government has divided to talk about this issue and when they do, they still don\u2019t make any sense at all. They still leave people with more unanswered questions. The government highlighted 8 points and they will just amaze you.<\/p>\n<p>According to what the government is saying, South Africa is a multicultural society that promotes interaction among people of different backgrounds. But they must also know that illegal immigrants in this country are not welcomed. According to this government, the Constitution protects the rights of all people living in the country, South Africans and foreigners alike. This point is just painful because South Africans can not have the same rights as illegal foreigners or just foreigners fir that matter, and it seems like the government is determined to protect them at all costs. When one reads all those points, no point shows that the government is prioritizing its people. They keep on mentioning foreigners in the same sentence as South Africans, and this just shows that the people are not a priority.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.ghanamma.com\/za\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/1336b1653e214c82ac732a98682d3a29\"\/><\/p>\n<p>They are more concerned with playing charity games, but we do have charity organizations like the Gift of the Givers. We can also see that the ANC now wants to turn itself into a charity  as they want to donate millions of money to Cuba, while South Africans are hungry and going hungry on daily basis.<\/p>\n<p>We are also told that foreigners living and working in South Africa should have valid visas and work permits. One just wonders what was the point of this statement by the government because South Africans are fighting those people who do not have all these right documents. It looks like we are not led as South Africans. There is a leadership vacuum in this country and the somber we accept the better.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">South Africa belongs to all who live in it.
