It is profoundly heartbreaking to witness another surge of xenophobic violence in #SouthAfrica this week. Hundreds have marched on Parliament, thousands of families have been displaced, and lives have been tragically cut short. These include at least five Ethiopians killed earlier in the attacks, and five Mozambicans who died in Mossel Bay. Thousands more are now fleeing for their lives. To see South Africa turn to xenophobia is a tragic betrayal of the country's struggle for independence and freedom. African nations stood united to dismantle apartheid. Ethiopia proudly supported "Madiba," Nelson Mandela, in 1962 and issued him a passport so he could travel the continent. Other countries helped in many ways, including with political and financial support. Disagreements and grievances must be addressed by the justice system and the rule of law, never through vigilante violence and collective punishment. South Africa deserves better. Africa deserves better. Stop the hate. Protect the vulnerable. Uphold our shared humanity.

The released suspect exposed the truth, which means this official @SABCNews brief was nothing but a scripted cover up. @RSA_IPID Acting National Commissioner Puleng Dimpane and WC Commissioner Patekile must answer for lying to the nation about Nhlamulo Sambo's murder.

A mother said her son was killed because he was Tsonga. The world doubted her. Grief + suspicion is a cruel combination. Now new reports say: He was attacked by a mob. He ran into a shack for shelter. He took his last breath there. The owner allegedly called for help with others. The suspect has been released. If the police narrative was wrong, then we owe that mother more than an apology. We owe her the truth. Full truth. No spin. Nhlamulo was not a statistic. He was a son. He spoke Tsonga. He ran for his life. He died for being a Tsonga. Whether he was killed by hate for his language, his origin, or his presence — the result is the same: A mother buries her child. South Africa, we cannot keep burying our sons and calling it “crime”. When a man is chased because of how he speaks, that is xenophobia. And xenophobia is a fire we all get burned by. To Gogo Sambo: Your tears were not lies. A mother’s voice matters. We see you. We stand with you. To Nhlamulo: Lala ngoxolo mfo. May your name force this country to look in the mirror. Justice is not revenge. Justice is truth + accountability. #JusticeForNhlamuloSambo #StopXenophobia #Amandla @Mzanziawake

South Africa is once again confronting difficult questions about migration, identity and economic opportunity. Can the country ease rising tensions while preserving its vision of a Rainbow Nation? 🔗 Read more: eu1.hubs.ly/H0vSY-P0

Never be scared of dominant public opinion. We have been here many times before with; Abortion, Corporal Punishment, GBV, women’s equality, Homosexuality and tribalism. But logic, justice & the power of truth always wins. Xenophobia will not win! Love, Law & Order will!

@TheFigen_ @grok is this real

Secretary‑General @antonioguterres is deeply concerned by reports of xenophobic attacks & acts of harassment & intimidation against migrants & foreign nationals in parts of South Africa, including in KwaZulu‑Natal & Eastern Cape Province. Full statement: un.org/sg/en/content/…

I will never take a platform to denounce Africans.. Zimbabweans and the rest of African countries thank you for creating more jobs to South Africans.. After watching this you have to think twice before you shout out Abahambe.

Zimbabwe's talismanic allrounder, he's their highest run-scorer and their second-highest wicket-taker in T20Is! A happy 40th birthday to Sikandar Raza 👏

Xenophobic attacks: The South African High Commissioner must be answering to us why South Africans must continue to stay in this country - Solomon Owusu, Director of Communications, United Party youtube.com/live/sbeeCcFJI… #AMShow | #JoyNews

South African “justice” can sometimes make you cry!How can an accused person who did not prosecute himself be blamed for the congestion of a court building??😭😭 Why didn’t the State transfer the matter to the High Court or some other venue which is not busy?🤷🏾‍♀️🤷🏾‍♀️ #MustAppeal

Senegal reminding the world who really won AFCON before their friendly today 😂🔥

@Mazitundeeednut I am proudly South African but Patrice Motsepe is unfit to remain CAF President. Senegal remains AFCON CHAMPIONS 🏆 until CAS rules otherwise as the highest decision making & final arbiter on sports related disputes Motsepe is in the pockets of Morocco FA yesses, disgusting!
