Former Johannesburg mayor Herman Mashaba launched his new party, ACTIONSA, during a virtual event on Saturday.
“This party stands for an end to illegal immigration, and we will never be silenced by anyone. We are a country and, as such, we have borders. We are a country that has not met the expectations of its own citizens and, therefore, cannot try to meet the expectations of the citizens of other nations as well,” said Mashaba.
He said SA had a right and legal obligation to its citizens to determine who may enter the country and for what reason. “These are our laws, and the laws of most self-respecting nations. I stand against xenophobia and there is no place for this or any hatred in this party or in our country. So, let me be clear, we want the people of the world to come to SA to work, vacation and invest.
“But, when people enter SA they must meet two very reasonable requirements. First, enter our country legally and, second, when here obey our laws. If we make this negotiable, we are not a country,” said Mashaba Mashaba said his party believed that South Africans must vote directly for the president, MPs, premiers and mayors.
