South African government refused to give foreigners documents to foreigners and later they turned and say we are illegal immigrants which is wrong . Hw can u allow the citizens should take the laws into their hands as a democratic country.

It's a sovereign Ghana decision about not meeting our President, we also have a right to respond however we see it (a sovereign decision too). There are some hateful nations on the continent, exposed completely, their animism against SA, their utter, despicable hatred & jealousy against SA. SA must never accept that, no matter what. We must remain principled that is who we are. We must remain independent; we must always be vigilant. Our enemies are many. But we have always been the Rainbow Nation of God, we will pull through this, as South Africa.

At this point, no president should visit another president whose people are fighting each other. Common sense dictates that.

Jacinta Ngobese Zuma and Dudula leaders were allowed to start their Political Careers. If the South African government was strong enough they would have intercepted march and march political party.

Africans should not be divided

The guest was bringing a point but time was not at his side

Why should we be apologetic for enforcing laws that count in YOUR countries? Going to any country illegally is a crime, go home and come back legally, case closed

See madam journalist, no one supports illegal immigration but even Ghana is dealing with it but how are they fighting it? Do uou see Ghanaians on streets beating people, asking them about their papers? No because is the job of the immigration officers in the country and that is what Ghanaians know. You cannot mistreat foreign nationals this way under the umbrella of illegal immigrant and expect this nationals president to be cool with you? Blame your authorities for bribes because that is what the south africa system has become. They take money to give hope of renewing their papers so they also have contributed to this problem and you guys are not fighting the authorities rather foreigners that is so sad and shocking. If all africans do the same thing against you do you know the economic impact! You better be civilised in this area because the madness is too much.
