'Nearly 200,000 Zimbabwean nationals are totally insignificant to the more than 60-million citizens in the country.'

Nearly 200,000 Zimbabwean nationals are totally insignificant to the more than 60-million citizens in the countryIt is regrettable to note that the government has decided to let go of Zimbabweans, particularly Zimbabwe exemption permit holders. One of the reasons expressed is to try to create jobs for locals.

The government must realign its policies to attract investors, promote entrepreneurship, curb corruption and take advantage of the skills possessed by Zimbabweans and other foreigners. No country would want to lose such skilled people. The US and many other developed countries have grown by taking advantage of the foreign skilled labour force. After all, nearly 200,000 Zimbabwean nationals are totally insignificant to the more than 60-million citizens in the country.

Haai what skills are they referring to? Are they saying we do not have a skill to cut hair, sewing shoes et al.. they are mad maybe they are referring to putting kids in the oven!!🤷🏽‍♂️

How did you manage to count all the illegal Zimbabweans?

Stop irritating us with yr lousy emotional blackmail. SAns need those jobs too. We have our own SAns who are equally skilled and can occupy those jobs. Go and use those skills to build Zim and stop lecturing SAns on what to do in their country. Naze nayisicefe bo!!🙆🏾‍♂️🙆🏽‍♀️

This article is...

Mabahambe noMalema wabo laba! We don't need them and their f!cken skills. Selling sweets and tomatoes isn't a scarce skil!

The twisted notion that these reprobates possess 'skills' is way past its sell by date and what I have seen are thieving roaches given to acts of brazen criminality, astonishing acts of corruption and the belief that they are somehow entitled to special treatment.

Advantage of what skill? Why must we take advantage if you can go and use it in Zimbabwe?

There are as many as 12million illegal undocumented foreigners here, 200 000 expired permit holders are a drop in the ocean. Put Sa first is calling for deportation of illegal immigrants. There are millions. Any case 200 000 x 4 people are 800 000 SAns that will have food.

We don't need those evil skills of fraud,hijacking, spiking peoples cars on the road,robberies, killing people etc..... Not forgetting theft of our infrastructure SIES

If so then why are they so desperate to Stay? Go home, Zimbabwe desperately need that skill than SA

Take advantage of their skills... Crime is a crime not a skill.

Times what narrative are you pushing? Anti patriotic? Anti SAfrican? We need to look after our own FIRST. So wtf are you trying to push? dudula PSAF

If there that skilled I'm sure Zimbabwe needs them more than South Africa. So go home with your skills and rebuild your country.

They can win us the election next year. Deport them as soon as possible. We need more men here

What skills? SA has been functioning well before you all coming to destroy Railways, Streetlights, Hijackings, Atm's bombings, being cheapest labourers by taking off the gains of SAns for living wages etc. SA has all the skills you can dream of

Their Zim articles don't have authors anymore 🤣🤣🤣

Ya'll are obsessed with Zimbabweans, can't you just go there and open your media house so you can properly protect them?

You are so biased bcos u are employed by the RSA government. Dr Tonderai Manyau

I though Zim needs their skills more. Besides they can apply for work visas just like every other foreigner. They don't have to be treated different and special to other foreigners who want to work in SA.

What the meaning of insignificant?

Dr Tonderai Nyamau

'The government must realign its policies to attract investors, promote entrepreneurship, curb corruption and take advantage of the skills possessed by Zimbabweans and other foreigners'. Curb corruption in Zim,the corruption of our government was letting zimbos in

It's overzealous for a fully grown man to believe that 200,000 Zimbabwens that are in South Africa are tantamount with 64 million of the country's population. Time will prove that only 1% of SA population will get jobs while 99% remain unemployed.

Ekunyeni

I so hate this blackmailing and sense of entitlement,Zimbabweans must go and provide these skills in their country

Wa tseba le bolela nonsonso Fela.

Even 1 zimbo is too much

Tsek wena we need those jobs......you can cry a river we don't care as along South African will benefit...you can still go with them though...

I believe Zimbabwe needs those skills to rise from the 'death' ,I'm sure you would agree..

Tell Dr. Tonderia Movoetsek from Zimbabwe who penned this letter in desperation that we South Africans are saying 'voetsek go back home with your skills'. PutSouthAfricanFirst

From being arrogant, entitled, insulting etc. to now appealing, excuses, pleading. We are heading to begging soon.

Kodwa mainstream media, you're a curse for Mzansi people

😂

Zimbos have made me to be very much cold & hardened over the years due to their criminality, lawlessness & destructive behavior just like all these other illegal foreigners. They must all pack & go!

your organization is full of foreign journalists that is why you are writing such boring articles..... Wake up buddy

Zim needs you.

Migrants in SA are many times less qualified than locals with hordes without matric. U think 200k jobs are nothing then u won't understand that only 8million are unemployed (60m is irrelevant). Complex calculations for the properly educated. Spot a fake PhD from the waffling.

Wa gafa😙

Ba re take advantage of our skills🤣🤣🤣🤣 ninya nonke

200 000 not 3 million?

These bastards must go back home nd stop annoying us ger

The skills that they're bragging about is needed more in Zim... they must voetsek.

Take your skills back zim NOT HERE,you OVERSTAYED 🐊 🐊 🐊 🐊 take your transport back zim go use your skills back zim

We don't need their skills we need our citizens employed. They must gonuse their skills in Zimbabwe stop forcing illegal foreigners down our throats we not giving in and you should follow them since u so concerned for them and not citizens of this country

Zimbabwea is a broken country, I think it needs their skills 😀. So they must go

Nywe Nywe Nywe you leeches and parasites. I am tired of Zimbabwean people always complaining as South Africa 🇿🇦 is their mother. We have all those skills at our disposal in SA. Majority (178 000) on ZEP don’t have skills, They must fokoff, bayeke ukutefa yerrrrr

Not sure.🤔

Those 200 000 are taking the jobs of South Africans. It will make a huge difference to 200000 South Africans.

Thanks but no thanks, now we will be taking advantage of our South Africans.

Take advantage of your skills and build a better Zimbabwe for the current and future generations. The media won't succeed in guilt-tripping South Africans. It's time to go...

We've made up our minds and have decided so you can write millions of times about zimbabweans but the ending point is that they're leaving our country,their skills are highly needed in their country as we have our own here.

WTF is wrong with this publication trying to advocate for Zimbabweans everyday, what the hell is going on here, if u so concerned about Zimbabweans then follow them home in December so u can make sure they comfortable in their country of birth.

We don't want any 'Zimbabwean skills' as there is no such thing. There's not a single Zimbabwean in SA or anywhere in the world with a rare skill. Stop peddling this nonsense, they must go back home and use whatever 'skills' they imagine themselves to have.

Good away with your skills we also have, you are in this country to escalate crime.
