A car dealership in Malvern, Johannesburg, has been dealt a blow after rioters torched its vehicles. News24 spoke with the two dealers who sell vehicles in Jules Street. The two, who asked to remain anonymous, said their garage was torched on Saturday night and 32 vehicles were destroyed. This after riots, which started in KwaZulu-Natal, reached Gauteng overnight in response to former president Jacob Zuma's imprisonment. News24 earlier reported riots erupted in the Johannesburg inner city.

Sections of the M2 highway were also closed after rioters blocked the road with burning tyres and rocks on Saturday night.

"Last night [Saturday night], I received a call from somebody. I saw a missed call - I called back and was told to quickly come to the garage. And as I arrived, all my cars [were] gone," one of the dealers said. "We don't know where to start from and what will happen. And these cars are for people who brought them to the dealership for us to sell for them. "They are going to be on our necks and we don't know… It's tough, the only thing is for us to go back to our country."

The two men, who are from Ghana, said the incident had left them confused and traumatised - more so because they were not insured.

They have been in the business of selling cars for more than five years, adding they had not expected such an incident to happen.
The other dealer said: "We lost 32 cars - I am so [hurt]. It is really a shocking situation and we don't know where to start. There is nothing we can do now…" The two men added they were unable to clear the debris because the rioters were still in the area. They added it was difficult to estimate the amount of money they had lost, but the vehicles were priced from R90 000 (N3.6 Million) . One said the cars were badly burnt and would now need to be taken to a scrap yard. Riots in the city have also resulted in certain services being cut.

The news report is quite funny because it said the victims were from Ghana as shown in the bolded text, however the language (Yoruba) of the guy talking says otherwise. Perhaps, they were trying to make the guys anonymous or trying to do some silent cover-up to douse the recurrent xenophobic tensions between Nigeria and SA.

South Africans will blame Nigerians for their woes.

I am very sure if the white population in SA leaves today, the rest will devour themselves and turn that place into an arid desert before the year runs out.

You're crying over one Nigerian outlet. Thousands of SA businesses have also been destroyed. This is not a time for your "xenophobia" nonsense. Don't be an idiot.

Black south africans just keep proofing to the entire world that no matter how close they may live and interact with the whites, their blackness and the monkey-mentality in them will always be unveiled tongue

South africans no better pass us one bit...The only difference between we and them is that they have only got little access to modern day technology prior to the whites residing in SA.....

That's one reason why apartheid go always be a lucrative business in SA lipsrsealed
