Watch Jacob Zuma's full anti-xenophobia speech in Parliament here

[nstrhainana]

SA must be sanctioned, it happened once and they still cant contain it....

[argosy]

Neighbouring countries will stop trading, they wont be containers, no cars, no tobacco, no pharmaceuticals, no clothes and all this will cause trouble in this country, people will be unemployed and the government will be to poor. Countries will cut the exportation of electricity  and blackouts as you know today, will just be a joke. So please do something. The army should be involved if it has to, all measures should be done not only to save foreigners, but to save the country.

JZ reads so slow cause its the first time his reading it....

im very sad and shocked to see how south african treated fellow africans, As an Ethiopian, i never expected to see south african would burn his/her brother alive, this is inhuman act.

[cameroon]

SOUTH AFRICA NEED's TO BE BOUND FROM ALL INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE INCLUDING SPORTS FOR AT LEAST 10years. FIFA TAKE NOTE COS ENOUGH IS ENOUGH AND JACOB ZUMA AND HIS KING NEED TO BE ARRESTED AND CHARGE BY THE ICC COURT FOR CRIME AGAINST  HUMANITY.

[NicoSibanyoni]

Now i agree with CIC Malema. The president's speech lacks passion and is uninspiring. His body language and tone does not communicate the urgency of the issues. I doubt passionate xenophobic zulu people will be moved by such a cold and weak reading of a prepared statement. It is as if he wants to get done with this thing as soon as possible

[addishiwottadesse]

shame on you, thief people. It was Ethiopia who stand beside Mandela during your horror time. It was Ethiopia who dared to give Passport to Mandela. Furthermore, it was in Addisababa where Mandella took his military training. It was King Haile Silassie who made a speech about you in front of the league of Nations. Now you paid us. how on earth Africans burn their African brothers alive? I used to love your country. your country is now more than hell. I was sick of seeing people burned being alive. How come the entire villagers be thugs and humans without a brain. so sad. History will never forgive you!!!

[WayneModz]

So even in this matter he cant speak using his brains.... still using that letter printed by the guptas

MR. JACOB ZUMA: your rhetoric is not contributing to halting the monsters from taking bloodbath of our fellow African compatriots. Your words about Africanism are beautiful; but not beautiful enough to save you from going to the ICC.  Do not act like an angel hiding your bloodstained hands behind your back.
 QUESTION TO AFRICAN LEADERS:  Who are you siding with?  To the Zulus or to your own people?  While the black South Africans are not shy to slaughter their African brothers and sisters who went to their country in search of a better life, it is so amazing to see African leaders being too shy to tell Jacob Zuma that he is the primary responsible for the atrocities being committed during his tenure.
ETHIOPIANS: despite who we ae and what we did to the black South Africans, we are officially BETRAYED!
We were the same people who issued a falsified Ethiopian National Passport to Mandela to help him escape the Apartheids. We were the same people who trained and armed Mandela when he was being hunted like a wild animal.  We were vocal critiques of the Apartheids in every available diplomatic arena.  If this is the black South African’s preferred way of paying back our favour, payment is accepted! We will remain happy that we did you that favour during your hard time.
 MESSAGE TO ZULU KING GOODWILL ZWELITHINI:
It is nobody else but you and yourself who instigated the massacre of unarmed innocent civilians. You are matured enough to understand the end result of your hate speech.    We will follow you to the gate of hell and take you to the ICC for every single drop of innocent African’s blood.

[vincesmash]

Y'all we'll never know what is like being a South African, we accept your critical criticism, but please keep your nose out of another's mess. As if your presidents or countries are better!

[merhawiberhane]
