Xenophobic Violence Now Turning South Africans Against Each Other

A family in Mossel Bay, Western Cape, is mourning the death of 19-year-old Nhlamulo, who was reportedly stabbed during recent unrest and protests in the area on 31 May.

According to a social media post shared by his sister, the family believes Nhlamulo was targeted because he was Tsonga and living in a predominantly Xhosa-speaking community.

The grieving family described the incident as an inhumane act and is calling for justice to be served. They have also appealed for an end to xenophobia, hate crimes, and tribalism.

“We will not be silent,” the post reads

🚨 BREAKING: COURT BATTLE OVER EDGAR LUNGU’S REMAINS INTENSIFIES 🇿🇲🇿🇦

​The legal showdown over the burial of former Zambian President Edgar Chagwa Lungu reached the Supreme Court of Appeal in Bloemfontein today, exposing deep-seated political tensions.

​Advocate Tembeka Ngcukaitobi, representing the Lungu family, argued that the Gauteng High Court erred in granting the Zambian government the right to repatriate Lungu’s remains.

​Key Highlights from the Courtroom:
​Lungu’s Explicit Wishes: The court heard that before his passing, Lungu explicitly stated he wanted current Zambian President Hakainde Hichilema (HH) to have absolutely no involvement in his funeral arrangements.
​The Airport Dispute: The family raised serious concerns over a request by President Hichilema to spend 40 minutes privately with Lungu’s body at the airport, accompanied by only four people, calling it a breach of initial agreements.

​Family Rights: The widow, Esther Lungu, and her children maintain they will not be dictated to by the Zambian government and demand the right to choose whether he is buried in South Africa or Zambia.

​"The family does not want to be dictated to by the Zambian government about where the body ought to be buried." – Advocate Tembeka Ngcukaitobi

​As Zambia approaches the first anniversary of Lungu’s passing on June 5, his final resting place remains unresolved.

South Africans don’t realize one thing.

In South Africa, they got _freedom_ — not _independence_.

There’s a difference:

*Independence* is being self-sufficient and autonomous. It means you don’t rely on others for support, resources, or governance.

*Freedom* is the ability to act, think, and express yourself without restrictions or interference.

The colonizers knew what they were doing. They gave them freedom to march, burn, cry, blame A or B, and say “I have the right to express myself.”

But in truly independent countries, people may have less “freedom” to riot or destroy, but their rights aren’t infringed. No matter how angry you are, you still abide by the law. You can’t burn a school because you’re mad at the principal.

I feel for black people of South Africa. Many think we got it all — but _lutho_, nothing, zero.

They were given freedom to yell in the streets daily. But check it: they are not independent. That’s why most rely on government grants. Everything is still controlled by someone else.

The Border Management Authority (BMA) says it has arrested three people after intercepting a drug consignment worth nearly R1 billion at the Beitbridge border post between South Africa and Zimbabwe.

Zimbabwe 🇿🇼 has banned foreigners from small-scale gold mining with immediate effect.

Mines Minister Polite Kambamura said the sector is now reserved for Zimbabwean citizens and fully local-owned companies.

Foreign operators must move into large-scale mining or leave by January 2027.
