MultiChoice Africa Condemns Xenophobic Attacks



The global outcry following xenophobic attacks in South Africa is yet to subside with African nationals and global leaders condemning the recent attacks while also calling on the South African government to stem the ugly tide.

MultiChoice Africa is the latest to respond to the unfortunate attacks on foreigners in South Africa. In a statement sent by its media minders, MultiChoice Africa condemned the attacks positing that Africa’s potential can be achieved through peace and unity.

“MultiChoice Africa is appalled by the acts of violence being perpetrated against our fellow brothers and sisters in South Africa and strongly condemns these acts.  As a multi-cultural African organisation we respect and embrace diversity, and all the different traditions and religions across the continent. This is demonstrated through by our multinational staff complement, rich African programming and channels on both our DStv and GOtv platforms.

“MultiChoice Africa advocates equality and freedom for all and condemns such acts as we believe Africa’s potential can be achieved through unity and peace. Our condolences go to the families and friends of those who have been affected or lost their lives in these unforgivable acts of violence.” The statement read in full.
