Trump VS SA: Zuma's Party Opens Treason Case Against Afrikaner Lobby Group by RandDigital(op): 4:17am On Feb 11, 2025

The MK Party (MKP) has opened a case of high treason against lobby group AfriForum following a diplomatic storm that led to US President Donald Trump's decision to cut USAID funding to the country.

On Monday, the MKP lodged a criminal complaint against the group at Cape Town Central police station.

Former Western Cape judge and incumbent MKP deputy president John Hlophe told journalists that the party vehemently condemned the "treasonous actions of AfriForum, which has deliberately lobbied foreign powers to act against the sovereignty and economic interests of South Africa".

"Their betrayal is nothing less than an act of economic sabotage, a direct assault on our nation's independence, and a dangerous attempt to undermine the will of the people," he said.

Hlophe added that AfriForum's direct appeal to a foreign government, which has resulted in economic retaliation against South Africa, aligns with many legal precedents.


He said:

AfriForum has a long and disgraceful history of opposing South Africa's democratic transformation, shielding the racist economic interests of the privileged European settler elite while disregarding the suffering of the oppressed majority.

"Their latest act of treachery – lobbying the US government to impose punitive economic measures on South Africa – is a deliberate attempt to weaken our state through external pressure."

Hlophe stressed that AfriForum had declared itself an "enemy of the South African people".

"Their divisive and anti-democratic agenda can no longer be tolerated," he said.

Trump issued an executive order on Friday, cutting all funding to South Africa and announcing refugee status for Afrikaner farmers.

He said he was punishing South Africa for what he claimed was discrimination against Afrikaner farmers and for taking "aggressive positions" against the US and its allies.

He offered resettlement for Afrikaners seeking to escape persecution and expropriation without compensation.

However, no farms have been confiscated from any farmers in South Africa.

AfriForum CEO Kallie Kriel said the charges were "absurd and will not cause sleepless nights".

"It is the duty of civil society and organisations such as AfriForum to shine a light on legislation and actions that threaten the welfare of citizens and the country. We cannot keep quiet about the injustice that is being committed at the expense of South Africa, its citizens, and the South African economy," he said in a statement.


"False allegations that AfriForum has spread 'misleading information' about the Expropriation Act and that this is the reason for the USA's action against South Africa are blatant lies."

Kriel insisted that AfriForum has constantly put forward the facts, as contained in the Expropriation Act signed by President Cyril Ramaphosa, and blamed "the ANC's reckless and radical domestic and foreign policies [as] the real reason for the unstable relations with the USA and the USA's recent actions against South Africa".

"Their action against the interests of the citizens of the country is evident in, among other things, state capture and other corruption, as already pointed out by the Zondo Commission and the failure of the criminal justice system to act accordingly against individuals who are responsible for state capture and other transgressions," he said.

"It is moreover hypocritical and ironic that it is Jacob Zuma, the leader of the MKP, who, in his time as president of the country, was responsible for state capture, [and] is now the leader of the party to bring in a charge of treason against AfriForum," he said.


Police spokesperson Colonel Andrè Traut said: "A case of high treason was registered at Cape Town Central police station this afternoon [Monday] after a complainant reported an incident. The circumstances are under police investigation. The identities of the parties concerned cannot be disclosed to the media," he said.

Too late 😂😂😂 We fought during apartheid and won even though we only had stones and they had the might of state weapons behind them. Today we're in power. Don't you know history, Mr First to Comment? What an embarrassment!

You talking bout the land they're crying is being repossessed. Yes we're taking back the land, it's true it's the law now. We have the right to, every country in the world has land laws. So what you wailing about?

We'll now charge them with high treason and see them rot in jail for decades. You'll then wail some more.

Trump may cause wars around the world if care is not taken.
Few days after taking over,
He is fighting the entire South America, Fighting Denmark and EU over Greenland, renaming the ever standing Gulf of Mexico, threatening to chase Gazans out, dissolved USAID, sanctioned almost the entire Earth.
This is happening so fast and could trigger a war.

🙄🙄🙄 Rolling my eyes, am i debating kids? A 7 month old coalition. Who's been in power for the past 30 years? And the whites need the coalition more than we do coz EFF and MKP are ready and waiting to replace them once they pull out. They're in a vulnerable position. We call the shots. Read a book once in a while.

Well, those who illegally allocated land to themselves will fight tooth and nail to keep their loot

Even their children will fight you.

Until you ask them how Dutch settlers who are less than 8% own 80% of the land in a country while the natives who form 80% ownless than 7% then social arguments start.

Well, they did the same in Australia, Liberia and Isreal
Re: Trump VS SA: Zuma's Party Opens Treason Case Against Afrikaner Lobby Group by santaclaws:
Elon Musk is probably the main culprit here. The guy appears to be a white supremacist. Despite growing up in SA, he seems to hate them with a passion. grin

On twitter, calling black people "Nigga" is now allowed, but when you insult white people the bots detect it.

The USAID termination also affects S.A. the most in Africa cos they have the highest HIV rate in Africa (9.2 million) for a country with just 60 million population, that's 15% of South Africans living with HIV.

Anyways, I really don't pity the xenophobic S.A. One was telling me on Omegle that their country isn't really African cos they have white people living there... I wish I recorded the black fool😹😹😹
Re: Trump VS SA: Zuma's Party Opens Treason Case Against Afrikaner Lobby Group by franchasofficia: 5:31am On Feb 11, 2025
I will personally write Donald Trump and Elon Musk on x to consider creating a two state in South Africa as a way of settling this issue in South Africa.


South Africa is ripe for division into two separate countries; one for the White South Africans and the other for the Black Mzamzi SadAfricans.

Let's see how the black SadAfricans will develop their own country to be like France using xenophobia and without White South Africans they are hating and denying their vital role in making South Africa a bit developed.

Should i say Trump stylishly evicted Indians and Non Hispanic whites Illegal immigrants to take White immigrants from South Africa as refugees.

He chased Mexicans and south Americans out of America and start begging whites in South Africa to come over to America and stay permanently 😂 😂

Asumming he got tired of those ones he already evicted or he just has a change of heart and wants to take other immigrants, why not take Palestinians from Gaza strip and give them refugee status in America? Gaza strip is just like 2million people, not much will be spent on them. But the whites in South Africa he's asking to come over to US as "illegal immigrants" are nearly 5 million people. It will be more cheaper to take the people of Gaza than the people of South Africa.

Trump take the people of Gaza to America, they need it more than the whites in South Africa

What's the big deal with the word nigga?

A word where only blacks can use it but when a white man use it, it is tag as racism.
Very funny.
It's not racist when a black man use it on another black man.

It's a slave name and was invented by whites as a racial slur. The blacks calling themselves niggas shows the effect of slavery on generations of blacks... If you offend a racist white person, first thing they call you is "nigger" cos they know the real meaning.

If you still don't see anything wrong with it, when you travel to America or Europe, tell your white friends and colleagues to call you nigger... I'm sure you'd be their favourite slave friend.

I disagree with you on that cos the meaning of "Aboki" is entirely different and the word itself is an Hausa word for "my friend", it's not a racial slur by definition and by origin.

"Nigger" on the other hand was invented as a word by white people to denigrate blacks, so it is way different. Those who live abroad and faced racism know better.

The point is, why is it that as black man, you don't take offense when another black person calls you that but get offended when a white person does.


Is it that only blacks can insult themselves with the words but white can't because it was use to insult the black during slavery?

It's funny how till date some people still allow some unimportant thing define them.
