FULL TEXT: EFF Statement On China’s Treatment Of African Nationals

South African opposition party, the Economic Freedom Fighters (EFF) has condemned the racial discrimination against Africans in China by Chinese citizens.

In a statement, EFF National Spokesperson Vuyani Pambo called on the African Union (AU) Chairperson, who is also the South African president, Cyril Ramaphosa, to ensure the safety and well-being of all Africans across the globe and the unconditional repatriation of all Africans from China.

Below is the EFF statement in full:

The Economic Freedom Fighters condemns the inhumane treatment the Chinese government is subjecting African Nationals to.

According to the reports, Africans in Guangzhou city are targets of suspicion and subjected to forced evictions, arbitrary quarantining and mass coronavirus testing on the basis of being African.

The racist motivated evictions on African Nationals in China has forced some to live under bridges, shops and restaurants owners turn Africans away from buying food from them.

We condemn in the strongest possible terms the abuse and racist mistreatment of Africans living and working in China, particularly at a time when we should be supporting one another to recover from the Coronavirus pandemic.

As the international community, we must come together to fight the spread of COVID-19 instead of engaging in racial discrimination based on unfounded claims that Africans are spreading the virus.

We call on the African Union (AU) and the Chairperson of the AU Cyril Ramaphosa to ensure the safety and well-being of all Africans across the globe and the unconditional repatriation of all Africans from China.

  1. This is not a black thing it is against all foreigners, do your research, they are doing this to Americans, British etc. So stop playing the victim, typical eff trying to make it about race. They are too small minded to understand what’s actually happening but only want to turn it into a race thing. These guys need to be dealt with

  2. China has the greatest most fantastic most impressive country in the universe and they want you to prostate yourselves as you should before their wonderfulness or you should be diciplined and reducated

  3. This covid thing exposes China,
    They are given first investment opportunities in Africa but Western countries donates more to Africa,its definitely food for thought!!!!
