How many were Zanu that fd up their own place and now puts a burden on ours.?

CommanderNFF After the Zimbabweans have left will everything be sorted, like crime will go to zero and everybody will be employed and services delivered including reduction of corruption in government systems, Or are we kicking a cat when a dog bites us..Just asking ..

Zimbabweans are just the scapegoats of Black SANs fear of white minority.

THAT would be good if not Great news.

Let them go back to Zimbabwe they belong there .

How are they going to work in formal sectors without work permits?

They're hard workers am sure they will not struggle in Zimbabwe.

Let them go in peace 🍀🍂💯

Not the parasite I know, they would rather stay illegally, you really don't know what is happening right now. Maybe you are talking about different Zimbabwe not the one I know.

Christmas is on the way. There will be voluntary candidates for Lindelani

What about Nigerians? They are huge problem those ones

How irresponsible SA gov is shem 😵😵

As they should

They must not come back here they overstayed their welcome After swazi,s win against mswazi they must not go there this cowards they must rebuild their currencyless Zimbabwe fock

And that's a problem because....?

Mnangwagwa has been posting photos of his country making good progress. Let them go home we'll talk via Skype

Why should they work here entlk?

Please, they should go.

This should not apply only to Zim, but to Nigerians, Pakistani's and all other countries

South Africa doesn’t have enough jobs to offer its own people yet Zimbabweans have taken over all the little available jobs at hotels, schools and restaurants

90 days and then 12 months to change over to the new visa

In later news: 5 Zimbabweans are sent home...

An awesome days indeed! Finally I’m out of debt. I’m highly grateful for this wonderful recovery and help you’ve rendered to me and my family, I’m forever grateful charlesmainafx

Vele they must go home all of them we use to have ama weekend jobs when I grew up and during school holidays now all been taken by this illegal foreigners

They do have options...

They must go!!!!

I feel for these Migrants as the vast majority are hard honest people trying to better their lives . What I don’t understand is how most political parties hold up what is happened in zims as a model of what should happen here , I’m sure if things ok in Zims they would not be here

Zimbabweans are easy targets.......we have Pakistani,Bangladeshi,Somali,Ethiopians,Eastern Earopeans,Chinese,.......the list is endless.....all who contributed 0 to the struggle and yet benefit

It’s a good move.

A good decision though it's too late.

Please ensure that the work permits are ONLY for scarce skills and not general. So many South Africans are unemployed with foreigners in jobs that they can do. We need to give our people a chance to show they can work hard and succeed.

You busy crying of only a mere 200 000 Zimbabweans,While millions of South Africans are Unemployed, part of them being 3 Million South African graduates!

Does the gvt has the capacity to enforce the laws?

But in reality they need not to run away they must go home and vote for change instead of being exploited in a foreign country as cheap labour

Yesterday I over heard 4 Zimbo they were going to work at (they took a taxi in Bree str) wearing a black and white uniform written BBW&Co I googled it's a restaurant they said 'if you don't steal you will never survive, use every chance we get....

They not going to just go home..😂😂😂

sepedirock And millions more must leave. They are here making demands to our government but would never dream of doing that to theirs

They will just remain in the country and work as normal

What about Nigerians, when will they be deported?

Ppl fir that place please fix your country. At one point your schooling system was among the best. Pity now I can’t take my kids there

When are we deporting them I’ll volunteer

White people punching the air

I'm certain there will be a grace period right? Its not like they will just switch it off on Monday? Right? I know our government isn't' the sharpest one but they not that stupid, right?

SA's decision not to extend exemption permits leaves Zimbabweans 'facing precarious future'The South African government's decision to do away with Zimbabwean Exemption Permits (ZEPs) for thousands of people has been met with criticism. This is just kicking the can down the road, as some point patriotic Zimbabweans must confront the evil regime back home. South Africans will help you Mnangwanga is waiting for them atlo ba trapa habatla ka masepa ko Zim its time they mst go home It is the right decision. SA has its own problems and besides, those eligible for genuine permits must apply and be judged on the merits. There's absolutely nothing wrong with the decision.
