Watch: EFF leader Julius Malema wants Zimbabwe billed

EFF leader Julius Malema has suggested that Zimbabwe should be billed for the services provided to its citizens in South Africa, sparking further debate on the country’s immigration and service delivery policies.

We cannot continue to provide free services to people who are not our citizens while our own people are struggling to access basic amenities.

Malema made these remarks during a recent public address, emphasizing that the financial burden of supporting foreign nationals should be addressed through formal billing processes to the respective governments. He argued that South Africa’s resources are being stretched thin by the influx of migrants and that the government must prioritize its own citizens.
