700,000 IDs blocked 

I wish the South African government can focus on the wellbeing of South African Nationals and stop entertaining criminal behavior of illegal foreigners.

The new Minister has taken over a badly run department, give him a chance to find out where the problems lie. Involving the courts should have been done when the ANC was making the mess. The backlogs go back years, Dr. Schreiber cannot get it fixed in a month.

Home affairs must give us a number ...just a simple system where we can report Foreigners using ids fraudently

Something wrong never block ur I'd for nothing

Human right for who?

Once those ID's are unblocked,there will be 700000 new SASSA applicants

Lawyers for Human Rights are very concerned about foreigners in our country but very little concern for the citizens of this country that are yearning to enjoy the full rights as liberated South Africans. Yes, and Delivery Service should be offered to South African citizens first!!!

We South Africans applaud home affairs for this, we can not be told by a Mozambiquen foreigners how to handle our country affairs

If they have 14 days to provide documentation to prove their case, why are they not doing it?

Tooo many foreigners in South Africa. With these amounts of foreigners they can overthrow a government.

South africa is tiring everyone has rights except citizens 😢 judiciary is also not make sure now with DA mister, it's doomsday

Blocked them, so everyone cms 4wrd n will be unblocked

Thandeka with this accent 😂, we are in trouble

If you're a foreigner in this country & you're not here on a work permit, study permit, tourist visa or family tie - you should be in a refugee camp at the border that is fully funded by your country's government.

What about a person who are declaire dead and is still alive.

Human rights can go fight for the rights of these people in their own countries

Too many foreigners in our country I think we should have a limit of how many foreigners we should have in our country.... Borders needs to be properly sealed please God we are tired of being manipulated that we xenophobic.... Please God protect us because our Government is failing

but home affairs wont just block IDS there is something off with those IDS

Let it be blocked they mumust come forward and clear their status.

If it is blocked that means fraudulent information was given simple.Who are these 700k people from where and age?

Chalked are you from Mozambique lady

Thandeka Chauke from Mozambique?

The DA now has control of Home Affairs. All these issues will be solved in the next 24 months. This disaster is 100% because of the ANC management of Home Affairs. Don’t worry my fellow South Africans help is on the way

IDs should not be the only form of identity that is required your finger print and person information must also be part of it...

South Africa for South Africans first, I’m sorry but it’s simple. I know people will reference that many freedom fighters were in exile, in other African countries but, they all returned home to fight for what we have today. People need to go home and fight for liberation, look at Kenya they all took to the streets to protest about the financial bill. I have never met even one Kenyan in South Africa. They’re building their country.

Zimbabwean workers who never leave. In Mafikeng they get RDP houses, anti retrovirals and chronic medicine causing a shortage for the elderly and citizens receiving anti retroviral treatment. I believe this a problem affecting all the Northern provinces. At the end of the day it is South African tax payers money that is being wasted. The situation is so bad up to the point where I think SANDF must intervene because of failed political parties border management.

Thandeka udabuka kuphi wena??

Home Affairs can basically be closed and a new one open doing the processes correct from day 1. Current one so broken and it will take years and many billions of rand to get fix so will be much easier to start a new one and will costs much much less.

This is a 1 Sided story, Invite Home Affairs. Where are most of those so called victims coming from.

It a shame,my friend is mentally not well,he is a qualified teacher but he relies on collect a can to eat because of Home Affairs blocked his ID as he was not using it because of illness now he cannot even earn Sassa grands, people just speak sometimes

Saw a Nigerian named Tshepo with a green ID book on Border Security Canada trying to enter the country. Our country is done.

Why can't this human rights organization go and fight for those people in their homeland??? We all know what has been taking place at Home Affairs office around South Africa.

Nope thandeka wait for Mr Groeneveld

Aw chauke from Mozambique is telling us how to run things in SA 😩

This ID story is true and sad. People need to follow each respective countries rules. A complete overhaul is needed. Start afresh.

We owe zombies accountability sies. Viva PA

Block fake ids

This lady(guest) is trying hard to speak with her nose, and it is irritating. She keeps switching to her natural accent and back to her twenging thing. 🤣🤣🤣🤣

To all foreigners: Don't ever, ever underestimate South africans not even in your weirdest dream!!! Our youth didn't die for nothing in 1976..Tata Mandela didn't go to prison for 27yrs for nothing...don't ever, the word xenophobia doesn't work for us anymore..enough is enough..Abahambe🗣🗣🗣

🇿🇦🇿🇦 Is very nice to speak English with small letters not with capital letters 😅 🇿🇦🇿🇦

The biggest worry for this lady should be why this I'd s are blocked, but instead she is worried about wrong things, very suspicious

Lekwerekwere la masepa, they bought those ids😂they should be revoked, this lady is also a foreigner, the nerve of these people

This one is a foreigner

But how can a court say something that's illegal must be legal if documents are illegal how is it possible to say it's legal, why is it blocked?

where's the guest from?😂😂😂 South African?

I was in Cambodia a girl asked where i was from i said South Africa she then said he friend married a South African i said wow she then showed me a picture i can tell you that man was a Nigerian 😢

Thandeka why u zombies force yourself on us in Sa

She is not south african

This new DA minister of home Affairs , please rago kopa to continue mo Aaron efelletseng.

Home Affairs should alert ID holders before blocking their IDs. Can you imagine you applied for a job and later rejected because you were not aware someone is fraudulently using your ID.

Block them fake ID

I wonder how many have voted in the 2024 election.

What's her ID number? It must be blocked as well

UNBLOCK THOSE IDS BOSATANE.🤬

The new minister needs to work with operation Dudula and other stake holders such PA, Action SA even HS foundation to address fraudulent acquisition of IDs, we need to protect the sovereignty and security of this country, Europe is doing the same, there is a rise of nationalism to protect their countries sovereignty and security against immigration

June 😂old news

The only comment to this video is that, the reason for all that confusion to happen, it is because of the government by putting that kind of important public service under the control of the private sector care, which the community thought it was a very much stupid, irresponsible, unknwlagable of the government while it didn't make any sens at all, because the employees of such companies most of them were their employers families who doesn't know absolutely nothing about that kind of job, as they were illiterate, as a results those employees didn't even care, as they didn't know the importance of that department or its services, because what was important to those employees, was to earn money and go back home. PERIOD.

Looks like she was stung by many bees on her mouth or allergic to Tabasco !!

Yesterday I was at Orlando home affairs going to check the results about my blocked ID since I produced all my documents that they asked me to bring, I go to counter no7 that man say sorry they still busy with it and he don't know for how long after we go and ask for help to one of the lady I think they are the one that are in charge to check the problems that we are facing with our ID book or birth certificate and she is the one helped me I explain that is now 8 months now since I produced my documents that they asked but even they said is still on the investigate while we find out that man is lying my documents they were never been submitted I have to start afresh they take my finger print again no no home affairs people they don't do they are work really

Here is what I dont understand about @NewsroomAfrika , why are your journalists already taking sides?? Like if home affairs suspects criminal activities, why would a news channel advocate for the opposite?? Even the questioning here seems like a paid for advertisement?? WTF is going on with this news channel?

I also have problems with my husband's case with the state

ayikho into enzima when they block your ID ulanda amaphepha wesibhedlela ozalwe kuso ulanda amaphepha weclinic bowu hamba kuyo ulanda amaphepha.wesikolo bowufunda kuso yini into enzima lapho abantwana basekhaya abazali bese bashonile baziyela bayothatha ama.ID ngaphandle kwama lawyer ngaphandle kwethu

She is struggling to hide her Nigerian accent by all means neccessary .One of the Ramaphosa ID recepients . Iigol wise .You cant hide Nigerian accent.

Thandeka and your organization must think twice to blame the home affairs all the time

Now begin to clean up SASSA.........!!!

Those lawyers are sick really they must go to hell they don't care about us here in the country.

She’s making me to not breath…she’s blocking my nose 😂

Credit bureaus too

Now government will help you 😂😂😂😂😂😂Tjauke

inyerviewer not asking right questions

I'm here to see who see who is going to blame EFF for these NPO actions

Wait Zimbabwean laddy our DA will help you

Please unblock my iD

I hate how she speaks it's annoying

Lawlessness of the country GNU it will works 💪 . How can defying count order 😊

News Afrika, government is not crazy and steps were taken to ensure that those id's were not issued correctly.

Thandeka Chauke... remember the name if you are SAn....

Yho People voted for the MK , Da and other nonsensical parties now they cry instead of Gayton.

Can you see that the mess done in the past 30 years is huge. I somehow trust the analysts that identified that 700k population. Let the analyst categorise types of frauds in that population and prioritize categories for further Investigations. The Minister of Home affairs has a lot of work. To succeed in fixing HA, hire ethical IT Specialists and Investigators. HA needs latest IT systems.

Malema's people...

And me to

Nonsense...sars can take your money without telling u

How is it possible for people born during 50's 60's etc who used to carry dompas bo lekwalo la mosepele during TVBC , kwaKZN & kwaNdebele born prior 1994 have their id's blocked. Remember apartheid government were very strict at the borders .This id mess started after 1994 .How does this affect south africans who have been around for more than 40years & over...Some sort of big mess & confusion is cooking in home affairs...How. many more countries in the world are blocking id's without notifying people to come forward to correctly re -identify themselves rather than told by banks ,license dept etc about blocked id's

Mine is blocked or duplicated. How do I fix this?

What I have seen is about block id, but mine is twine ID and the person who used it. I know him, but I can not open a case against him. I made my id 1997 and their made his id 2007 using all my information, id number, name surname and date of birth

Sars should not pernalize people for not submitting tax returns.

Maba hambe!!

700000 potential Anc voters ID'S blocked 😅😅

Is the ANC capable of doing anything properly. Suggest most ANC ministers resign and then capable ministers be appointed

Just another bugger up...nothing new ,old news.

I heve my aunt,she have two ID NOW she is straggling to apply for an old grant,she made the other one because the old one was starting to lose some papers,then she go and make another one,then those guys in home affairs didn't erased the old one now it shows up when she apply a grant,what can she do because its been a year now,those guys in home affairs doesn't want to help her,,,,,,,,,please any help.

Let anyone in.Open borders.
