South Africa’s immigration crisis has a problem hiding in plain sight: corruption inside Home Affairs.
Gareth breaks down the allegations, the officials dismissed, the convictions, the visa bribery claims, and why the anger over illegal immigration should also focus on the people controlling the paperwork.
The Special Investigation Unit has uncovered systemic corruption involving visas, permanent residence permits and citizenship documentation. Since 2024, 65 Home Affairs officials have been dismissed, 16 suspended and nine convicted, according to the figures discussed in this interview. Gareth Home Affairs.txt
The bigger question is simple: how do people who should not be entering or remaining in South Africa obtain the documents needed to do so?
Gareth also examines how corruption inside South Africa’s immigration system affects ordinary South Africans, including those applying for visas to travel overseas. The discussion looks at Home Affairs, border control, bribery, illegal immigration and the uncomfortable questions South Africa needs to confront about corruption.
