00:55We will not be fooled or influenced by social media campaigns that spread misinformation, fake news, and lies about people
01:06who are in our country.
01:07We must be concerned that anti-foreigner sentiment is at times accompanied by tribal and ethnic slurs, insults, and attacks
01:21aimed at other South Africans.
01:25This is not acceptable.
