Trending: Dangerous Trump rejects heading our way

There is a fear that violent criminals – illegal immigrants in the US, which is now deporting them to eSwatini as they their home countries have refused to take them back – will cross over in Mzansi and join the ranks of criminals here at home:

@Oriana_RSA Basically, the US is treating eSwatini as its dustbin for criminals? The worst part is that these criminals will obviously end up in South Africa. We’re doomed

@AdvFanele I work near the eSwatini border and a good 30%- 40% of our resources go towards eSwatini citizens, but we foot the bill by paying insane amounts in tax. While I’m an advocate of free healthcare for all, I think billing the countries of origin for the immigrants would lessen the burden on the locals.

@_sethuzuma The US dropping off immigrants in eSwatini is frustrating, because they’re most likely going to relocate to the nearest economic hub for opportunities.

@motsohi_thabang South Africa must now decisively intervene to control wild and irresponsible decisions by this mad despot (King Mswati) in eSwatini.

@_tume1o Not to be dramatic, but this is a security issue for SA. It doesn’t look like there’s any guarantee that they will remain in eSwatini.

@Wealth98478302 So, should we allow lawlessness from Lesotho, Botswana or eSwatini just because we might be relatives?!

@KennedyWandera_ ‘These criminal illegal aliens are so uniquely barbaric that their home countries refused to take them back,’ a US Department of Homeland Security spokesperson says. The Trump administration has also sent migrants to El Salvador and South Sudan.

@Cecilia_Mthwane As a SADC region, we need an urgent meeting with eSwatini. They need to tell us if they are on Nyaope or something. Labantu badinga iNduku straight.

@Sello_Libram eSwatini cannot stop its own citizens from crossing illegally into South Africa, but is now accepting illegal Nigerians, Zimbabweans, Muslims, etc that America is deporting.Basically illegals are being sent to eSwatini so that they can later cross into SA.

@mztvar As a citizen of eSwatini, this is one of the reasons why I will teach the younger generation to despise US foreign policy with every last drop of their blood. Why should a first world-state, with all the instruments to deal with crime, send hardcore criminals to a third-world state?

@TheSituationZA WTF! So, eSwatini is a dump site.They will be crossing over to SA.

@Truthonothing While South Africans are caught up with ‘mabahambe’, a new issue is emerging – get ready to receive more illegal immigrants, courtesy of the Trump administration. Meanwhile, African media remains disturbingly silent.

@SegopotjeNkadi3 eSwatini govt is so smart! They accepted violent foreign criminals from Cuba Somalia, Yemen, Venezuela, Vietnam so they can get financial aid from Trump but they won’t host them for long – they will secretly dump them at the border at night, then they will come to SA.

@SS_Mogashoa The disrespect to eSwatini!
The disrespect to Southern Africa!
The disrespect to Africa!

@RediTlhabi You know what this means akere? Hardened criminals, (rapists, paedophiles, murderers, robbers) unwanted by the USA and their home countries, being dumped in eSwatini, will end up in one place....

@MotsaZakhele What the hell is this? eSwatini government is a mess. This is really bad. Extremely bad. Deporting convicted criminals to us is appalling. Extremely appalling.
