Watch video: Tension rises in SA as Amdudula scatter mapostori church service

An Operation Dudula member orders open air church congregants to leave the site and not return

Operation Dudula members scattered an open air church service of Zimbabweans in South Africa this weekend.

Twitter user, Bongi Kaunda revealed the incident with a video which he tagged: “NOT FOR SENSITIVE VIEWERS: Zimbabweans have been chased away by angry Operation Dudula members for praying on an empty field. Children were almost hurt in the process and the poor churchgoers were left traumatized by the ordeal”.

In the video Amadudula can be heard telling the churchgoers to go back and continue their disgusting habits in their home country. They also threaten to break and burn the congregants if they catch them at the spot again.

It is not clear where this occurred but some comments show that the open air churches may be prevalent in South Africa.

“I fully support what Dudula is doing. I drove to Vereeniging two weekends ago. The bushes after Southgate to Kiblerpark all the way to Walkerville were littered with these witches. It can't be allowed. Viva Dudula, Viva!” wrote stateLessMan @ Gen_Masuku

Another comment implied that Zimbabweans have been fighting back.

“Also Zimbabweans apparently shot undiscrimatly SHOT, let me say it again SHOT unarmed people ur hypocritical reporting is so obvious, wrote @MrsBK2019 using another Twitter post as evidence for her assertion:

“Unarmed Operation Dudula members at Sekhukhune branch were attacked this morning by a gang known as Thobejane that is believed to be Zimbabwean nationals. Multiple shots were fired and one patriot was killed,” @SANDILE_PANTHER tweeted yesterday.

“They must be stopped. This is our country. Foreigners are not going to dictate to us,” agreed QueenOfSwords @Khumbuz98119386.

Operation Dudula is a violent South African social movement that is aimed at expelling foreigners from the country.

There are around 180 000 documented Zimbabweans in South Africa with an estimated half 600 hundred thousand more illegals.

SA became a haven for many African nationals who flocked to the country over the past few years in search of greener pastures as the countries’ economy and lifestyle standards were the envy of the continent.

Zimbabwe is currently detaining 550 Malawians caught while trying to cross illegally into South Africa. There are also a number of Somalis who use Zimbabwe as a transit zone to get to South Africa.

Over the years Nigerians have also been objects of social attacks as a deepening economic crisis is plunging the once vibrant SA economy into the doldrums.

SA is currently facing a debilitating load shedding schedule which recently created disruptions at

Operation Dudula Members are blaming foreigners, especially Zimbabweans for high unemployment and inflation in SA.
