PETITION TO PARLIAMENT OF THE REPUBLIC OF SOUTH AFRICA
Calling on All Members of Parliament to Support a Motion for a National Referendum on the Mass Deportation of Illegal Foreigners
To:
All Members of the National Assembly and the National Council of Provinces
All Political Parties Represented in Parliament
The Speaker of the National Assembly and the Chairperson of the NCOP
The President of the Republic of South Africa
We, the undersigned citizens of the Republic of South Africa, hereby petition Parliament to support and initiate a motion calling for a National Referendum, in terms of Section 84(2)(g) of the Constitution and the Referendums Act, 1983, on the following question:
“Should South Africa implement an immediate and coordinated mass deportation of all illegal foreigners residing within the country?”
WHY THIS REFERENDUM IS NECESSARY IN MY OPINION.
My opinion is that South Africans are facing unbearable pressure on jobs, housing, healthcare, education, policing, and social services. Illegal immigration has escalated to a point where it threatens national stability, economic security, and the safety of communities. Despite endless debates, political promises, commissions, and legislation, the crisis continues to grow.
Parliament has the constitutional duty to uphold the rule of law, protect national sovereignty, and ensure that South Africa’s borders and immigration systems serve the interests of its citizens.
A referendum is a democratic tool available under our law. It gives ordinary citizens—not politicians, not lobbyists, not foreign interests—the power to express a clear mandate on a matter that directly affects their daily lives.
The Referendums Act of 1983 (as amended) remains the applicable mechanism for conducting national referendums, and Parliament has the authority to table a motion requesting the President to call such a referendum.

WHAT THIS PETITION DEMANDS
We, the citizens of South Africa, call on every Member of Parliament, regardless of political affiliation, to:

1. Support the introduction of a motion in the National Assembly calling for a national referendum on mass deportations of illegal foreigners.
2. Publicly declare your stance on whether South Africans deserve the right to decide this question directly.
3. Commit to democratic accountability by respecting the will of the electorate expressed through such a referendum.
4. Ensure that the referendum process is transparent, lawful, and overseen by the IEC, in line with the Referendums Act and constitutional principles.

MY OPINION WHY PARLIAMENT MUST ACT NOW

• Illegal immigration is overwhelming public services meant for South Africans.
• Communities are increasingly unsafe due to criminal networks operating without documentation or oversight.
• Corruption in immigration and border systems continues unchecked.
• The public has lost confidence in Parliament’s ability to resolve this crisis alone.
• A referendum will provide a clear, undeniable mandate for decisive action—whether for or against mass deportation.

Democracy gives people the right to speak. This referendum will allow South Africans, once and for all, to express their will directly.

OUR CALL AS SOUTH AFRICANS
We are not calling for the targeting of legal immigrants or refugees.
We are calling for the enforcement of South Africa’s laws and the protection of its sovereignty.
We ask Parliament to stop avoiding this national issue and to return this decision to the rightful owners of the Republic: the PATRIOTIC SOUTH AFRICAN CITIZENS
