The content of this video is believed to be the beginning and cause of the xenophobic attacks and violence currently happening in south Africa. The King of Zulu,King Godwill Zwelithini addressed a gathering in the presence of Police Minister ,Nathi Nhleko and Provincial MEC willies Mchunu saying it was time foreigner pack and leave the country,he accused them of messing up the country by hanging their fake clothing brands on the street.
“Now when you walk down the street you can’t recognise a shop you used to know because it has been taken over by foreigners who mess it up by hanging up rags,” he said.
When confronted over the remark due to the outburst of violence,and ask to apologize,his Spokeman Prince Thulani Zulu,replied that the King has nothing to be sorry for,that he meant every word he said that foreigner must pack their bags and get out of south Africa.
“I think the people who’re complaining are misinterpreting his speech. He didn’t say foreigners must be attacked or harassed. The king was talking about foreigners who are here illegally. Some are involved in serious crimes like drug and human trafficking. We don’t need such people in our country so the king is right.”Prince Thulani said.
