South African Minister of Sports, Arts and Culture - Gayton McKenzie - says he feels "insulted" that Justice Minister Mmamoloko Kubayi talked publicly about artists’ plight without first consulting him.

McKenzie was reacting to Kubayi’s warning at Sunday’s Inter-Ministerial Committee on Migration media briefing that continued tensions around migration were beginning to have economic consequences, revealing that at least one local artist had all her performances across Africa cancelled.

“The majority of South African artists perform on the continent, and many of them are seeing their gigs being cancelled. That's another impact, because they benefit quite a lot, they perform at live performance events and everything.

“We can’t lie about it, the backlash,” Kubayi said. “One artist reached out to me to say all her gigs on the continent had been cancelled. This is an income loss for a South African.”

She said the creative sector was particularly vulnerable, as many South African artists rely on live performances across the continent for their income.

McKenzie has repeatedly come under fire for not caring about the Arts and Culture part of his department after he slashed funding for key arts festivals.

He came out defending himself, saying that festival organisers cannot expect to grow old with the government as their "mother and father and your everything" forever.

"What about the new promoters? We are opening up the industry. Luckily for me I don't care what they write about me. That's why they cannot shame me into writing about me. I thrive from bad news," he said.

He is currently facing criticism after DA MP Leah Potgieter recently raised alarm, stating the FIFA trip could amount to a R19.2 million expenditure.

McKenzie has vigorously defended the inclusion of 20 fans and 20 artists on the trip to watch the World Cup, explaining that sport and music go hand in hand.

How do you resolve what is not the "source" of the real problem which is plaguing the country, which is corruption, government ineptitude and slow economic growth.

You send those Malawians back and, in a few months, they will be back. You might be able to reduce the numbers but for a while but if the real problems are not addressed this will not go away unless of course we want to go the extreme end and start unaliving people.

If you watch us (human beings) well, you will see that there are no final solutions. Even real solutions, you’ll rarely find – because the solution to any problem creates new problems. So what we do, realistically, is to exercise those options we believe will create only problems we're prepared to handle. The option for South Africa, as I see it, is to tighten border controls and deport people. So some of them will come back. Then have a programme of regular deportations – like Donald Trump has.

Asking that people with dysfunctional home governments stay away from South Africa won’t help. People, skilled and unskilled, have a right to aspire to live in another country. And that country has a right to keep them out.

The world is moving forward with time, South Africa is moving backward
against time 🏃🏃🏃 ✈️✈️✈️ .

I helped a brother to pursue, and kill a Big snake in his Backyard but on the following day, when he saw the babies of the snake, he said am the one that is planting them in his backyard.....

This is exactly the definition of the kind of treatment the local South Africans are issuing to the foreign black Africans ....

Let them not worry, soon the little snakes will grow and become big snakes, let's see how they will kill them alone....

Lol... which worldcup?
Don't tell me you're about to spend that money on the Fifa26WC you're about to crash out of spectacularly...

I usually phrase this problem under the difficult argument of "citizenship rights vs human rights. Which should take precedence over the other," as it exists within most western styled democracies/constitutions.

I find myself conflicted at times, jostling between the two concepts and notice that this debate is intensified when there is a perceived lack of abundance of resources.

As you say we all have inalienable rights, but when one right is "deemed" to be infringing on the rights of the other, that in of itself becomes the conundrum to resolve.

You never see anything

Yes sir
I support the motion
They must go
Na so Ghana must go happen for Nigeria
E reach our turn now beank cake turn to stone

Make Dem pursue everybody commont

Country wey dey okay say Dem no want some people, abeg shey no be their choice or right ni?

Because ah no understand Nigeria complaints o

Dreal1247:
The bigger truth is the whites want them to send away black brothers who are supposed shield them from their evil plots and plans. Apartheid is coming back in a more brutal way. Unfortunately, Nigeria won't be there as a big brother to help them in overcoming their white fellow South Africans. Then, they are going to reap whatever they showed. The days of mass bitter tears are coming. I wish, the xenophobic attackers themselves experience it and not their descendants.

which big brother?
U wey never solve your own problem finish for Nigeria here, u wan be big sister
Lots of illegal people from niger are flocking in for banditary in the northeast everytime u dey here dey cry about south Africa decision

You too u will reap what you sow
Na so Nigeria do Ghana must go that time
Una dey crase

SA government is made up of several parties. Gayton's party (Patriotic Alliance) is notoriously anti-migration. Have you heard other parties speak like this?

At this moment, we dont care.

All south africans support this evil by their silence/ inaction.

Karma is just around the corner

Lemme share a story which correlate this SA imbroglio.. yr 2000, we lost our dad, coincidentally that year, my elder bro won some bet, then pools was the main thing...
He started partying, going to clubs coming back late nights..
We stayed at one of the apartments at university quarters, during that period we experienced theft alot mostly fuel siphons theft.
One of the occupants or should i say our neighbor accused my elder bro that he was behind it, don't know why she said that.. maybe due to him keeping late night..

2001 we moved out to our own apartment, guess what... The theft was still happening and worse than before...
The idiot woman that accused us of the theft was embarrassed when confronted.. later she also lost her husband.
Why am i saying this, if Nigerians or other foreign nationals are the sole pepertrators of drugs, crimes and other evil acts , it will stop after june 30th.
But if not....

A foreigner must have slept with the wife of this Mckenzie guy. He seems very desperate to have South Africa all to himself only.

Pierocash:
Can you now see that the xenophobic attack is government sponsored. I kept saying that , the government of south Africa is sponsoring their citizens to attack other black Africans and pretend like they know nothing about it. You can hear him saying "they must go".

South Africa will pay for their sins and evil against their fellow black Africans , either now or later, but anytime soon.

let's be watching

What kind of an unintelligent analogy is this? A government should be united as one, party affiliations notwithstanding. How can the President of SA be saying one thing and his Minister of sports be saying a different thing? It's like Wike saying something different from what Tinubu is saying. It makes no sense bro. A minister is an extension of the President in any democratic setting. The government of SA is the one behind these xenophobic acts. Simple!

you should be directing these empty threats to your bandits, they're the ones chopping the heads of your innocent people and kidnapping your girls, not South Africans.. you're barking up the wrong tree here.

You are no different from them, you should know that already without anyone telling you. Bandits are killing innocent people and collecting ransom, black South Africans are killing black immigrants and taking over their shops.
