This video examines the diplomatic tension between South Africa and Ghana over migrant populations, where South African journalist Jacinta Samuel claimed Ghanaians should leave South Africa within 24 hours, prompting Ghana's Foreign Affairs Minister Samuel Okudzeto Ablakwa to demand South Africans leave Ghana. The video presents both perspectives: South Africans argue migrants steal jobs and contribute to crime, while Ghanaians counter that they are skilled workers who support their home countries and that South Africa has historically benefited from African solidarity during its liberation struggle. The content highlights how economic competition, misinformation, and historical alliances can fuel xenophobic tensions between African nations.

🚨Popular South-African Journalist Gives All Ghanaians 24-Hours to Pack Out and Leave South-AfricaAdded:
legally staying in South Africa and performing Qatar and these are the people we don't want any other day and one person that has been pushing this notion South African energy she used to be the kind of say journalist she's a failed journalist now she's been pushing the idea we are fighting illegal I mean migrant in South Africa and all that and we know the former first minister of Ghana Samuel Osei Tutu when you are less less just give you a rundown of how everything started and so there is a video of a year Queen King sorry whatever that is happening in South Africa it is because some Nigerians and some ghanaians and other people illegally staying in South Africa and these are the people they are trying to pursue out of the South African country now so apparently we are seeing something else but then before you enter video of when this King what is a tutor What is government doing about that?
If they really taking South Africans seriously they need to act.
They need to act and um I would just like to to reassure you your Excellency that we really do not have problems with Nigerians.
In fact I I went to school with different different cultures.
People coming from different countries.
It's just the people who are here who are doing criminal activities that we have a problem with.
>> [music] >> So that was King the they are just sucking people that do not have legal documents to stay in South Africa but the reason why we are saying yes there is a video of African ghanaians and in Nigerians South Africa the reason why South Africa for is because they are lazy they are into the blacks from Nigeria Africa Colombia Congo whatever and what time and I can see this whole because they are even bumping into people's apartment refusing blacks from having medical attention and all that now and they that's one more I have I have I have a master that taught me at school in Ghana.
So we be seeing we be seeing them all around here with their fathers drinking together.
And then at times I used to please why can't you give me this boy to train him to become a mechanic? So ah and I can't I don't have time for that.
The bottom line is laziness people lazy people don't want to work simple as that. As a foreigner when I come to this country and I read what is going on here and I see this is free to get a certificate and get a job I got a skills already I come to this country what what must I do? I have to go and get a certificate and get a job.
When you get a job they say you are foreigner you don't have ID they chase me out.
When you grow what are you going to do to support yourself?
You understand? We haven't taken anybody's job. I'm telling you if you like let's leave this place for them 1000 years nobody can work here. Nobody can work here. If you don't have a skill you can't work.
There are many people that have ID but they can't work.
You understand? There are poor people that have got ID book but they can never do nothing in that company. Right in the city center you keep unemployed people so what do you expect them to do because they need to eat they need to sleep they need to survive they need better life.
You know so they have to come and steal on those who are working.
This man is the owner of this garage why can't they come here and please I have a son who is 15 years or he's 14 years I want I want to I want to give you this boy it's like a school all that you are doing here we learn it at school.
I would say I'm going to go to South Africa and South Africa they don't know anything about South Africa for when we are abroad we will send you my show on the school work open in South Africa hairdressing tailoring mechanic if anything aluminium fabrication near the idea South Africa for the women bike to take to be a and after that nobody then they start pushing the notion said they are taking their jobs and they start hitting on them that is what has caused all these attack xenophobic attack about South Africa preaching said they are doing Africa for and yes I know because they don't even have what it takes to go and work in the various organizations and I said various places and what say now in view of that a lot of people are asking who is this Jacinta Samuel fire no that is the lady the lady or no pushing that agenda meaning they are both journalists I mean people claim they are failed journalists. One more agenda now all what they are doing is to make it look like they are sucking illegal immigrants and I say illegal migrants but then that is not what it is because which one for the video these are people that are not ready to make ends meet for themselves in Kenya or say Samuel Black the failed journalist allegedly how people tag him on social media in Nigeria.
Her ignorance and bigotry is most alarming.
Look first of all when you listen to this lady she clearly does not know that Ghana is hosting currently as we speak by official records 3194 South Africans who are living here.
If you check our NIA data the number of South Africans who have registered as non-Ghanaians to obtain the Ghana card 3194 3194 >> 3194 official statistics.
So to make the claim that if you travel out of your country then you are there's you are probably out of your mind you don't want to fix your country.
Is she aware that there are over a million South Africans living outside South Africa?
I mean this these are official statistics.
And then this claim that you want to blame foreigners for for crimes.
So 65% Crime should be handled as crime.
Perpetrators should be punished. You don't distort it and and use the unfortunate high crime in South Africa which we all empathize with with with South Africans. I know many ghanaians who have been victims of crime in South Africa but you do not because of bigotry because of hatred blame that on foreigners.
But you see this lady has to be taught some history.
Mhm.
The Africans you are targeting today are the very people responsible for your liberation.
It is it is it is it is us who came together joined forces. Indeed if you read Nelson Mandela's book and I've got a copy here long walk to freedom the Madiba Nelson Mandela who led the liberation struggle in South Africa against apartheid acknowledges the role of Ghana and many other African countries in supporting the ANC that led to the liberation of Jacinta and all of these people.
And this is not how you show appreciation. I would say the foreign affairs minister what church is in South Africa and I mean it out of shared ignorance because we share the history lane how South Africa came about any idea the contribution of other African countries and even right now how some some ghanaians go to the South African country with their own skills a South African country with their own skills.
and people have legal document to live in yet still There are people the foreign affairs minister Samuel Okudzeto Ablakwa said with immediate effect They all need to go. Now, there are some video where the projection is being made that South Africans living in Ghana their time is up. They need to leave.
South Africans living in Ghana South Africans living in Ghana, can you people leave our country?
South Africans in Ghana Can you people leave?

And Samuel Okudzeto Ablakwa who happens to be the foreign affairs minister now and I'm a man for the air targeting and say with immediate effect Now he
