Sho Madjozi's commentary has been commended by many South Africans who went as far as saying she's doing more than the country's president about the ongoing xenophobic attacks.
President Cyril Ramaphosa was silent for a majority duration of the protests, nor has he commented about the number of South African women who have been murdered by men in the past few weeks.
When he eventually made a statement yesterday, Ramaphosa said the xenophobic attacks were "not justified."
EFF leader Julius Malema released a video condemning the attacks, too, stating that fellow Africans aren't the enemy.
