YOUR PASSPORT IS NOW A CLICK AWAY—AND CRITICS SAY IT’S A NATIONAL SECURITY NIGHTMARE
Gone are the weeks of waiting, the stacks of paperwork, the endless bureaucratic delays. Now, with a single online form and just ONE HOUR, a former South African citizen can be welcomed back into the fold. The Department of Home Affairs calls it “convenience.” Security experts are calling it a DISASTER waiting to happen.
This isn’t just streamlining. This is a TEAR in the fabric of our nation’s sovereignty. A one-hour digital gateway, with embedded video verification, that could allow virtually ANYONE with an old ID number to waltz back in. Where is the deep-tier vetting? Where are the thorough background checks for those who’ve spent decades abroad? The system’s own promotional screenshots show a shockingly simple interface—a red flag for how easily it could be manipulated.
So who wins here? The politically connected rushing to return before elections? The wealthy ex-pats seeking a cheap retirement loophole? The silence from top officials is DEAFENING. Meanwhile, the man on the street faces hours in a queue for a simple ID renewal. The message is clear: convenience for some, vulnerability for all.
They’ve turned the sacred bond of citizenship into a fast-food transaction, and every single one of us will pay the price.
