South Africa’s Minister of Justice and Constitutional Development, Mmamoloko Kubayi, denies allegations that Malawian nationals are being “dumped” in Johannesburg rather than deported, according to reports. The minister responds to claims of alleged mismanagement connected to the repatriation process and the handling of vulnerable people during a complex migration environment. In her statements, Kubayi seeks to address concerns about how affected individuals are processed and where they end up following removal actions. The dispute centres on whether Malawian nationals are being delivered to authorities for deportation or left stranded in Johannesburg. The reports frame the controversy as part of broader scrutiny of government procedures and accountability in cross-border movement, including how cases involving vulnerable populations are managed. While the allegations focus on alleged failures in execution, Kubayi maintains that the approach used in dealing with repatriation is not as described by critics.
