By A Correspondent- Economic Freedom Fighters leader Julius Sello Malema has called for the government of South Africa to consider the plight of foreigners who live in the Southern neighbouring country.

Malema who was delivering a Fre3ddom Day speech on Monday said the interventions implemented by government must not segregate based on one’s nationality.

He added that South Africa’s solidarity to all poor nations must go beyond our narrow boarders.

Read an excerpt of his speech below:

The food parcels and all the grants are meant for South Africans only. Even the small business grants are structured for South Africans only.

When financial and economic relief was communicated by President Ramaphosa, there was no mention of the continent and all the African migrants who live amongst us

The migrants, even those who are registered with permanent residency will be overlooked, excluded and probably even deported during this covid19 crisis.

This is the reason all other countries in the world will never see a black lives as worthy of dignity, respect and remorse; we do no not feel remorse to each other right here on the continent , we do not feel solidarity for each other.

Do you think small and big businesses of British citizens will not get tax relief from SARS? Do you think they will not get payment holidays from SBSA? Do you think the British Citizens in America will not get financial help from the USA government?
