Xenophobia

The majority of people have reacted with horror at the violent death of Elvis Nyathi, stoned and burned to death by a murderous mob in Diepsloot. The MWP condemns this act of unbridled barbarism. We express our sympathy and solidarity with his family and indeed the entire Diepsloot community amongst whom he had lived in peace.

Full responsibility for the outbreak of xenophobic violence must be laid at the door of the Ramaphosa ANC government.
