While the Mainstream Media desperately flounders to salvage the narrative depicting the Rainbow Nation as a beacon of multiculturalism; downplaying anti-white farm attacks or outright slandering those who drew attention to these atrocities as ‘conspiracy theorists’ or ‘white supremacists.’

Furthermore, freedom of speech is apparently under attack in South Africa.

The National File reported on an incident where The Nelson Mandela Foundation wished to have somebody criminally prosecuted over a tweet containing the country’s previous more Eurocentric flag.

Now, there has been a wave of ‘xenophobic’ attacks.

The South African police have been criticized of inertia, incompetence, and disinterestedness in face of the rampant lawlessness currently plaguing many parts of the country.

President, Cyril Ramaphosa, has condemned the acts of violence.

According to Al Jazeera:

South Africa‘s President Cyril Ramaphosa has condemned “acts of wanton violence” against foreigners as crowds of people plundered shops and set fire to buildings for a second day in the country’s commercial capital, Johannesburg.

Police fired rubber bullets and arrested seven people in the township of Alexandra on Tuesday morning, a day after clashing with looters who local media said targeted foreign-owned businesses in several parts of the city.

“I’m convening the ministers in the security cluster today to make sure that we keep a close eye on these acts of wanton violence and find ways of stopping them,” he said in a post on Twitter.

“There can be no justification for any South African to attack people from other countries.”

So. When anarchy hits in SA. How long will there be food in the stores?

Yesterday, a horrific video showing what was allegedly a Nigerian worker burning alive did the rounds on social media. This video is, unfortunately, too disturbing to include here.

TimesLive reports that two South Africans were killed in Coronationville as violence continues to unfold in Johannesburg.

Four South African police officers were arrested last week over the killing of a Nigerian worker, according to Sahara Reporters.

The Financial Times reports that Nigeria has warned South Africa over the violence directed at foreigners. Nigeria has threatened ‘definitive’ action to protect its citizens from ‘wanton’ violence.

Boko Haram has even been called to respond to the anti-Nigerian acts of violence.

In mid-July, it was reported that some 118 Nigerians had been killed in South Africa in what have been described as ‘xenophobic’ murders. Thirteen of these Nigerians have been killed by police.
