Go back to your province — weeks after anti-immigrant crackdown, South Africans turn on fellow citizens

Go back to your province — weeks after anti-immigrant crackdown, South Africans turn on fellow citizens

A video circulating on social media has sparked widespread reactions after it purportedly showed a man from Limpopo, South Africa, telling telecom workers from another province to leave, describing them as "foreigners" in his province.

In the viral clip, the man is heard ordering the Zulu-speaking workers to return to their home province and seek employment there, insisting that they do not belong in Limpopo.

The incident comes just weeks after protests and campaigns in parts of South Africa targeting African immigrants from neighbouring countries, with some groups demanding that foreign nationals leave their communities.

The latest video has fuelled debate online, with many social media users suggesting that, following the anti-immigrant actions, some individuals are now directing similar hostility toward fellow South Africans from different provinces.
