South Africans Call For The Shutdown Of Foreign-owned Spaza After The Death of Two More Children
Lerato Matji reports on the township communities' call for the shutdown of foreign-owned spazas. The calls follow the death of 2 children in Soweto. The owners are accused of selling food that has expired and in some cases, poisonous. In total, six children have died since the start of the year.

Easy for us to say “stop shopping there”. These shops cater to poor people who have many mouths to feed with very little. These shops price their goods very low making them the preferred place to get food for disadvantaged families.

@@hopes9451 it is the issue, I don't know where you from but you need to understand most locations in Africa don't have shopping mall at a walking distance. So shop like this are needed.
All foreign-owned spaza shops (convenient stores) are illegal, registered or unregistered. Small business enterprises like that are only reserved for the locals according to the constitution. The people who register these shops should also be arrested because they are corrupt officials. Furthermore all foreign-owned businesses need a minimum of $250k (~R5million) start up capital to be considered at investment and get registered according to the constitution. Anything below is just hustling, likely not gonna employ locals and going to be in direct competition with locally owned small to medium business enterprises. I'm actually surprised to see so many comments of people agreeing with South Africans because previously we'd be accused of xenophobia
