About 35,000 people have left South Africa through the Beitbridge Port of Entry in Limpopo.
The acting commissioner of the Border Management Authority (BMA), Major General David Chilembe, says more than 35,000 foreign nationals have left South Africa through the Beitbridge Border Post in Limpopo.
He provided an update on South Africa’s repatriation programme on Thursday.
Chilembe was focusing on the Beitbridge Port of Entry in Musina, where most repatriation activities are now taking place following the closure of the Durban Repatriation Centre.
“We are today here at Beit Bridge, which is a border between South Africa and Zimbabwe, where we are busy with three processes: deportation processes, voluntary repatriation, and the normal facilitation of movement of people and goods,” he said.
