LIFAH calls on young Malawians traveling to SA to have proper documents

Light of Hope for Africa (LIFAH) calls upon young Malawians who go to South Africa SA to have skills and proper travel documents to curb challenges they face abroad.

LIFAH whose primary goal is to be active in research concerning factors associated with cross border movements has noted with great concern that Malawian young men are facing challenges when they go to South Africa and make the highest number of inmates at Lindera.

According to Phinstard Ali Duwa, founder and director of the organisation, “Malawians who travel using uncharted roads and without proper travel documents put their lives in danger as most of them are prone to xenophobic attacks and exploitations.”

Duwa therefore has urged government of Malawi to put in place measures that will ensure the country is exporting skilled labor to South Africa.

Base in South Africa, LIFAH also strives to harness positive factors like cross border trade, economic growth and cultural diversity.
