“We Want You Here”: Afrikaner Man Didn’t Relocate to America Due to His Arm Issue, SA in Stitches

• A local Afrikaans-speaking man had Mzansi entertained with his witty reply on a topic that has been the talk of the country
• The guy read out a question asking why he didn't join the 49 Afrikaners who left SA for the US as refugees
• His hilarious response had online users rolling with laughter, with many saying he was too beloved to be let go

A local farmer took a jab at the 49 Afrikaner farmers who left for the US on a charter flight organised by the Trump administration, because they believed that their lives were in danger.

He shared his video on his TikTok account @rianvanskaap, making social media users roll with laughter and praising his sense of humour.

The man explains why he didn't move to the US

In the clip, the man stands in front of a long mirror holding his phone as he reads a question aloud. The question was about why he wasn’t at the airport with the 49 Afrikaners who had left for America as “refugees” via a US-chartered flight.

Instead of a serious answer, he jokingly said he couldn’t go because the people who left were known to be hard-working. Pointing to his arm, he said, It didn't want to work, and the rules stipulated they didn't want people with disabilities.
