HA NOOLAATO SOMALI NATIONAL PARTY CONCERS ON SOMALIS IN SOUTH AFRICA AND CONDEMN
XENOPHOBIA KILLINGS AGAINST SOMALIS IN SOUTH AFRICA
The HA NOOLAATO Somali National Party notes with serious concern the recent
attacks on Somalis in South Africa. We call on the South African government and
the South African people to take a firm stand against such violent acts and
treat them as crimes against humanity.
The HA NOOLAATO Somali National party sees the killings and constant attacks on
Somalis as an assault on the values of the brotherhood and harmony between South
African people and Somalis. We believe that our country has played an important
role in the South Africa's liberation. And after the liberation, our community
in South Africa contributed hugely to the South African economy through
investment, job-creation and revenue contribution.
But on the other hand, there have been coordinated attacks on the Somali
community for many years. Killing, looting and torching of their shops became
constant and the attacks against Somalis have been out of proportion to their
numbers.
HA NOOLAATO SOMALI NATIONAL PARTY is very disappointed that none of the
perpetrators has been arrested in any of these incidents.
Our party believes that Xenophobia is against the values and spirit of the
African Charter for Human and People's Rights which says in ARTICLE 4 "Human
beings are inviolable. Every human being shall be entitled to respect for his
life and the integrity of his person. No-one may be arbitrarily deprived of this
right".
We believe that the freedom of South Africa was achieved by a collective effort
by South Africans and other African countries. Therefore, we would like to urge
you that to remember the kindness you received in the African countries. It's
important to recall that your African brothers and neighbours were collectively
punished by the Apartheid regime for harbouring the cadres of the ANC. You have
to remember that the Somali people and other Africans that you are killing are
those who hosted your families and children, who treated your injured and ill,
and who supported you in any place in any time when you were victims of
apartheid.
Our party promotes and supports Pan-Africanism and harmony between Africans
regardless of their nationality or races and we want to live together in peace
and harmony. We also call on the South African government to take tough actions
against acts of xenophobia in any form.
We want to repeat again our unambiguous condemnation of such xenophobic acts
against the Somali people reside in South Africa.
