Zulu
king Goodwill Zwelithini
whose remarks incited Xenophobic attacks after saying "All foreigners
must leave South Africa" has appealed for calm. Speaking with his
subjects today April 20th in Durban, the king said his remarks were
taken out of context.
"This violence directed at
our brothers and sisters is shameful. My speech ... was directed at the
police, calling for stricter law enforcement, but that was never
reported. The public was instead given another side of my speech, which
had been twisted and misrepresented." he said
He pleaded with South Africans to stop attacking foreigners.
