Embassy Prepares for Return of South African Permit Holders HeraldZimbabwe: Zimbabwe
The Zimbabwe Embassy will be conducting an outreach programme across South Africa to engage citizens. On Monday, the embassy released a two-week schedule during which officials will hold meeting with ZEP holders in all nine provinces of South Africa.
The Second Republic has pledged to help the citizens so that they can get home with their possessions and settle well. The special permits were granted to about 180 000 Zimbabweans working, studying and living in South Africa. As part of the preparations for the return of ZEP holders, the Zimbabwean Embassy in South Africa between February 2 and last Friday conducted an online mapping exercise to identify citizens who may require Government assistance as they prepare to return home.
Ambassador Hamadziripi said embassy officials are still collating data on the number of citizens who registered online to be assisted in returning back home. "In that regard, an in person/physical mapping exercise will be undertaken across all the nine provinces of South Africa from 12 to 31 March 2023, to identify and register ZEP holders and their dependants who may require assistance or facilitation to return to Zimbabwe."
In North West province further meetings will be held at Mocoseng Sundown Resorts from March 25 to 27.
