ANC MP Rose "Hitler" Sonto, also the head of the South African National Civic Organisation (Sanco) in the Western Cape, this week repeated unsubstantiated allegations that foreigners are buying government- subsidised houses and forcing South Africans to live in shacks.
Speaking at the Human Settlement Summit in Cape Town on February 29th, Sonto (Hitler) accused foreign nationals of owning "three-quarters" of RDP houses in Du Noon. Hitler (Sonto) also mentioned several other townships, Phillipi, Samora Machel and Delft, from which foreigners were later chased away.
In his speech Hitler (Sonto) accused "non-South African nationals" of "taking over". "With no apology, I must say, in what many would regard as being xenophobic, when laying bare the dangerous problem that is creeping into our democracy … many houses in various localities are owned by foreign nationals whose refugee status is unknown to us as citizens of this country," he said.
"They buy these houses to stay in them or to rent them out to needy South Africans," Hitler said.
He used Du Noon as an example of how "foreigners are taking over". "Three-quarters of Du Noon is owned by non-South Africans. Phillipi is another area -- Samora, Delft and many others are areas where government delivery is turned into misery for those who are supposed to be recipients.
"What this means is that government resources -- that were meant to restore dignity to our people and rid the country of slums and informal settlements -- go next door and as citizens we are at the mercy of foreigners.
"It might be undermined now, but later our democracy will suffer serious setbacks as we will become foreigners in our own country in the not-too-distant future. If we keep on hiding the truth behind xenophobia as we do, we will wake up one day being slaves of other people in our own country," Hitler said.
Rose (Hitler) really knows a business opportunity when it presents itself. First you engage in a little rabble rousing... then set the rabble on the amakwerekwere.... then have the cheek to charge them R13000 per person to return - and an R200 a month "protection money"! Haai sies - a nazi can only blush and feel inadequate when they see your tactics and the way that you hope to profit from the misery you have caused. All together now - "Sieg Rose Sieg Rose!!!"
