Safari ya Kombe la Dunia ya Bafana Bafana Yaanza

Siku ya Jumapili, tarehe 7 Juni 2026, kundi lingine la raia 331 wa Ghana walifikishwa Uwanja wa Ndege wa Kimataifa wa OR Tambo na Ubalozi Mkuu wa Ghana kwa ajili ya kurejeshwa makwao. Kufuatia taratibu za kuingia, wasafiri walienda kwa Uhamiaji wa BMA kwa ajili ya kushughulikiwa.
Miongoni mwa walioshughulikiwa, wasafiri 117 walikuwa wakitumia pasipoti za kawaida za Ghana, huku 90 wakisafiri kwa Hati za Dharura za Kusafiri zilizotolewa na Ubalozi Mkuu wa Ghana huko Pretoria. Zaidi ya hayo, watoto 37 wadogo waliozaliwa Afrika Kusini pia walishughulikiwa kwa kutumia Hati za Dharura za Kusafiri.
Maafisa wa Uhamiaji wa BMA waliwashughulikia zaidi watafuta hifadhi 25 waliowasilisha barua za kujiondoa kwa hiari ili kufuta maombi yao ya hifadhi. Wakati wa mchakato wa uthibitishaji, wasafiri 170 walipatikana kuwa wamezidisha muda wao uliowekwa wa kukaa Afrika Kusini kwa siku 30 au zaidi na hivyo kutangazwa kuwa hawafai kwa mujibu wa Kifungu cha 30 cha Sheria ya Uhamiaji, ikisomwa pamoja na Kanuni ya 27(3)(c) ya Kanuni za Uhamiaji.

Mwishoni mwa mchakato huo, abiria 341, wakiwemo wasafiri 10 waliohamishwa walioletwa na Idara ya Mambo ya Ndani kutoka Kituo cha Kuhifadhia cha Lindela, waliruhusiwa kuondoka. Msafiri mmoja hakuingia, lakini wengine 340 walipanda ndege ya kukodi iliyopangwa na Serikali ya Ghana kupitia Ubalozi wake Mkuu huko Pretoria.

Kurejeshwa kwa raia hawa wa Ghana kunaonyesha ushirikiano mzuri kati ya Serikali ya Ghana, kupitia Ubalozi wake Mkuu huko Pretoria, na mamlaka za Afrika Kusini zinazohusika na usimamizi wa uhamiaji na usalama wa mpaka.

Kamishna Dkt. Masiapato aliipongeza Kamati ya Usimamizi wa Bandari na maafisa wote waliohusika katika kuwezesha operesheni hiyo. Alihimiza zaidi misheni za kigeni kuendelea kufanya kazi kwa karibu na idara na vyombo husika vya serikali ili kuhakikisha uwezeshaji laini na halali wa harakati za urejeshaji.
"Ushughulikiaji mzuri wa harakati hizi za urejeshaji unaonyesha umuhimu wa juhudi zilizoratibiwa kati ya misheni za kigeni na mamlaka za Afrika Kusini. Ushirikiano k**a huo unachangia usimamizi mzuri wa uhamiaji huku ukihakikisha kufuata sheria za uhamiaji za nchi," alisema Kamishna Masiapato.

On Sunday, 7 June 2026, a further group of 331 Ghanaian nationals was brought to OR Tambo International Airport by the Ghanaian High Commission for repatriation. Following check-in procedures, the travellers proceeded to BMA Immigration for processing.

Among those processed, 117 travellers were using Ghanaian ordinary passports, while 90 were travelling on Emergency Travel Certificates issued by the Ghanaian High Commission in Pretoria. In addition, 37 minor children born in South Africa were also processed using Emergency Travel Certificates.

BMA Immigration officials further processed 25 asylum seekers who voluntarily submitted withdrawal letters to cancel their asylum applications. During the verification process, 170 travellers were found to have overstayed their allocated period of stay in South Africa by 30 days or longer and were consequently declared undesirable in terms of Section 30 of the Immigration Act, read together with Regulation 27(3)(c) of the Immigration Regulations.

At the end of the process, 341 passengers, including 10 deportees brought by the Department of Home Affairs from Lindela Holding Facility, were cleared for departure. One traveller did not check in, but the remaining 340 boarded a chartered flight arranged by the Government of Ghana through its High Commission in Pretoria.

The repatriation of these Ghanaian nationals demonstrates effective cooperation between the Government of Ghana, through its High Commission in Pretoria, and South African authorities responsible for migration management and border security.

Commissioner Dr Masiapato commended the Port Management Committee and all officials involved in facilitating the operation. He further encouraged foreign missions to continue working closely with relevant government departments and entities to ensure the smooth and lawful facilitation of repatriation movements.

"The successful processing of these repatriation movements reflects the importance of coordinated efforts between foreign missions and South African authorities. Such cooperation contributes to effective migration management while ensuring compliance with the country's immigration laws," said Commissioner Masiapato.
