Newly launched BMA seeks to ensure that the country's immigration laws and regulations are upheld
The newly launched Border Management Authority seeks to ensure that the country’s immigration laws and regulations are upheld and enforced. That is according to President Cyril Ramaphosa speaking at the BMA launch in Musina, Limpopo earlier on Thursday.
“A more secure border is important for curbing illegal migration, human smuggling and trafficking. It will help in combating cross-border crime. The Constitution declares that South Africa belongs to all who live in it. All citizens have the right to enter, remain in, and reside anywhere in the republic. As is the case in every sovereign country, foreign nationals who seek refuge or wish to live and work in South Africa are subject to immigration laws and regulations.
Meanwhile, Zimbabwean President Emmerson Mnangagwa says as the two presidents are continuously meeting, the border authorities on the sides of the countries should have improved working relations.
