Good evening South Africa. Stop murdering fellow African. Violence is not the way! "Through violence you may murder the hater, but you cannot murder hate."~ Martin Luther King Jr. #XenophobicAttacks #PretoriaCBD

With these #XenophobicAttacks, I am never going to South Africa except as a diplomat

We spent billions of dollars to finance most of the leaders of the ANC in their struggle and they can't even protect Africans in the same SA where they were mauled like dogs under apartheid?
