Limpopo Premier Targets Housing Enablers | Johannesburg News
Description
Limpopo Premier Dr. Phophi Ramathuba is sounding the alarm on South Africans renting out backyard rooms and housing undocumented immigrants, calling them “enablers of criminals” and accusing some RDP homeowners of turning government-subsidized houses into illegal rental havens. Following a major crackdown in Polokwane that netted 339 suspects—including a murder suspect and multiple housebreakers—authorities vow to expand operations into rural areas, partnering with traditional leaders to tackle undocumented stays in villages. Ramathuba also hinted at possible corruption links between protest organizers and undocumented immigrants, stressing that immigration laws must be followed and that unchecked influxes are straining public services like healthcare. Police confirm ongoing raids and urge communities to report illegal activity.
