GAUTENG – Residents of Dunnottar in Ekurhuleni have expressed mixed views on the presence of foreign nationals in their community. While some residents say they are willing to live alongside documented migrants, others have called for stricter action against those they believe are in the country illegally. Last week, community members staged protests, urging authorities to verify the legal status of foreign nationals and inspect businesses operating in the area.
Some residents claim undocumented migrants contribute to challenges such as crime and lawlessness, arguing that it is difficult to trace individuals who may be involved in criminal activities. Protesters say they do not oppose foreign nationals in general but want law enforcement agencies to ensure that all migrants are properly documented and comply with South African laws.
