South Africa introduces 'deportation buses'
3 hrs ago | Views
The Minister of Home Affairs, Leon Schreiber, announced on 11 December 2024 that the department has introduced deportation buses for illegal immigrants who do not comply with immigration laws.
Clearly, this is targeted at African immigrants as Europeans can not reach their destinations using buses.
Newzroom405 posted a video of Schreiber addressing the media at the Lebombo Border in Mpumalanga. Schreiber said the bus has already deported 290 illegal miners back to Mozambique. He said the buses are meant to show South Africans that the rule of law is applied in South Africa.
"We welcome any traveller, investor, tourist and skilled person who wants to follow our laws and help us build South Africa. You will find no more hospitable country on earth than the people of South Africa. But that is different from people who violate our laws and don't want to comply with our rules," he said.
