South African Activist Says Every Citizen Could Get 1 Million Rand Annually Without Working

South African Activist Says Every Citizen Could Get 1 Million Rand Annually Without Working

A viral speech by South African activist Phakelumthakathi has sparked fierce debate across the continent. He claimed that South Africa could award each citizen one million rand every year without requiring work. He compared the proposal to the UAE’s reliance on foreign labour. Some listeners praised his vision, while critics argue it overlooks economic realities and could inflame tensions around immigration. The discussion has refocused attention on migration, employment and regional cooperation. Share your respectful views on this idea.

Maybe the government could pilot a smaller universal grant first, then measure economic impact before scaling up to a million rand.
