• A viral video of a Mozambican national defending South Africa’s right to deport undocumented immigrants has sparked massive engagement
• The man urged fellow African nationals to stop fighting to stay in South Africa and instead channel their energy into fixing their own countries
• His unfiltered critique included mocking football remarks towards Zimbabwe and Malawi, which won him praise from local viewers

A Mozambican man took a bold stand in defence of South Africans who want undocumented foreign nationals out of the country, advising them to stop fighting to stay in Mzansi. The video shared by TikTok user @fayamen91 on 15 June 2026 gained massive traction, with viewers praising the man for his raw honesty and logical perspective on the country's ongoing immigration debates.

Before addressing the serious political issues, the man kicked off with a few spicy sports-related questions aimed at South Africa's neighbours. TikTok user @fayamen91 called out Malawians for mocking Bafana Bafana after a recent defeat to Mexico, asking if Malawi had ever hosted a World Cup or even had a stadium. He also questioned whether Zimbabwe has ever qualified for a World Cup tournament, telling critics that they needed to "use their minds" before mocking South African achievements.

Fix your own countries

The man argued that foreign nationals have no right to be angry at South Africans who are trying to fix their nation by removing illegal immigrants. Rather than fighting to remain in Mzansi illegally, he urged African immigrants to return home and confront their respective governments the same way South Africans are doing. He emphasised that if citizens from neighbouring countries used the same energy, they would spend less time surviving abroad and demand accountability from their own leaders, and their home nations would improve.

The man’s video is shared during a highly volatile period for immigrants residing in South Africa. The Department of Home Affairs is currently monitoring mobilisation reports showing that activists from the March and March movement are planning a massive nationwide demonstration on 30 June 2026. The march is aimed at forcing the immediate deportation of undocumented individuals. According to a BusinessTech report, these rising tensions have prompted many immigrant communities to panic, with many choosing to leave the country voluntarily before the looming deadline arrives.
