  2. I think this guy will be bad luck of him.because he deid whl he has stealing a bread
    and many people somalian serve because of him

  3. Foreigners are all over our country.now they have right to kill in SA hell now.its time for them to live our place.we will burn each and every single foreign couse they are doing in our economy

  4. this is just too brutal, we should look at things from a distance. Yes they are foreigners but that doesn’t give us the othourity to be judges, imagine this somalian killed only one person and now the whole SA is in danger. what if the waters were not poisoned and its only now that they’ll be thinking of it since we pushed it in to their minds, does that mean they will flush the waters everyday? its a pity cause some of us were not involved now we suffering for other peoples life’s. we should also be wide awake this people are clever and we cant stand their fight lets just stop what ever is happening before things really gets out of hand we don’t know what they feel and it makes us look like dummies, his soul is out and it is not coming back. So things are just heavy in our locations( Im just worried what if this people bomb’s us****)

  5. fellow SA, this people are not here to stay you should be noticing that they don’t stay in one place for three years they give each other chances to boost their busineses. the only reason that they are here we all know Somalia experiences wars the only reason that they here is to provide for their families back home im an African but sees it useless to fight them all just for one guy that poped out a soul, I myself know nothing about the scene but I imagine myself going to work at America then something like this happens this is too much for our safety lets let things go there’s nothing we can change…and we making things worse by doing this by the end of it many will be sorry, even with us when you go to Swaziland you’re a foreigner that’s just how it is
