Malema Criticizes Ghana’s Hasty Evacuation of Citizens from South Africa

South African politician Julius Malema has criticized Ghana’s decision to evacuate its nationals amid reports of xenophobic tensions. He argues the timing was poorly chosen and could reinforce negative perceptions between the two countries. Malema warned that the move might deepen divisions instead of fostering dialogue. He suggested that documented Ghanaian migrants should seek protection from local law enforcement rather than be airlifted home prematurely. He cautioned that Ghana’s response risks sending the wrong message about South Africa’s treatment of foreign nationals and could undermine diplomatic engagement.
