Ramaphosa Dismisses Musk, Trump's Claims of Afrikaner Persecution

South African President Cyril Ramaphosa has strongly rejected allegations of persecution against white South Africans, labeling them a 'completely false narrative.' His comments were a direct response to claims made by tech billionaire Elon Musk and former President Donald Trump, who have accused the South African government of enabling violence against the white Afrikaner population. Musk recently reiterated these claims on social media, citing a controversial song performed by the Economic Freedom Fighters (EFF) as evidence of anti-white sentiment. Ramaphosa urged South Africans to dismiss these narratives and to not let outside events create division among citizens. While farm attacks do occur, experts emphasize there is no evidence of systematic persecution against white South Africans. The discourse has sparked significant backlash, with many locals accusing Musk of spreading misinformation about the situation in South Africa.
