Political leaders in KwaZulu-Natal and across South Africa are raising alarms over a critical shortage of immigration officers, with estimates of over one million undocumented foreigners in the province and fifteen million nationwide. The Department of Home Affairs has only eight hundred thirty-two officers to manage borders, workplaces, and document checks. Politicians call for massive recruitment drives, while refugee groups dispute the numbers and warn against fueling xenophobic tensions. President Ramaphosa acknowledges the problem and plans to boost border security and recruit new labor inspectors, but enforcement gaps remain.
