"Eintlek, so far, the only neighbours who are not giving SA a headache daily might be Namibia and Botswana. We must check properly."

Penny Lebyane alleged that the Eswatini people have been problematic on the down low, and not showing it, unlike the other nations.

"Swaziland/Eswatini has been very problematic, has been hiding in plain sight, and they talk nonsense just like Zimbabweans. Lesotho is up to no good day in, day out; Mozambique is a huge problem," she claimed.

Lebyane continued, "As much as the love is deep for all of them as people shem they don't respect SAns at all. Very entitled lot and very condescending at times, it can be hard to keep some of the relationships on a personal level. South Africa's story is like a pretty girl that everyone wants to be like but hates her at the same time cause they're not her and could never be her. Only she can protect herself."

Penny's solution to illegal immigration

The conversation around illegal immigration has been ongoing for some time now, with calls to have them deported mounting. Organisations like Operation Dudula and March and March have been making headlines for their protests.

Penny reckons that if the locals were willing to do the hard labour done by foreigners, it could weed out the bad ones. She also advised the middle class to conform to the SA labour laws and pay people their legal minimum wages.

"If we could all do our own laundry and clean our own houses, do our children's hair, gardening, etc, just as a start, then we could solve some of the issues we have. Be willing to pay minimum wage and comply with SA Labour laws, and we could be on our way to restoring order. But not the "middle class" very complacent bunch, is always part of the problem, but never wanna take responsibility."
