Minister Ronald Lamola challenges the blame game against migrants, arguing that South Africa’s real crises—poverty, unemployment, and inequality—are the true drivers of social unrest. He calls for honest, compassionate dialogue rooted in history, urging regional cooperation to address root causes like conflict and economic desperation. Lamola insists that managing migration and upholding human rights can—and must—go hand in hand for a stable, united continent.
