As protests against illegal immigration rage on in the country, KwaZulu-Natal Premier Thamsanqa Ntuli has issued a stern warning to locals and businesses that continue to harbour illegal foreigners.
Speaking on the sidelines of the Africa Day commemoration in Durban on Monday, Ntuli warned that businesses and locals who are providing accommodation and hiring illegal foreigners would be arrested.
He reiterated his government’s dismissal of assertions that protests that are taking place and led by Zulu regiments are xenophobic.
Ntuli said the marches that emanated from his province and spread to other provinces are directed at illegal immigrants who are undocumented not against those who are legally in the country.
