Claim: Home Affairs Minister Leon Schreiber is a Zimbabwean foreigner
Fact-check: Not ours: Wiki edits responsible for Schreiber being Zimbabwean  - FactCheckZW
Verdict: false the claims that 'home affairs minister leon schreiber is a zimbabwean foreigner' have been rated as false. while there is nothing wrong with being a south african born in zimbabwe, or vice versa , in this case, the claims are being used to exclude schreiber from being qualified to hold a south african cabinet post. although these claims might seem innocent enough on the surface, they are fueling the xenophobic undertones that have characterised debates on zimbabwe-south africa relations on social media. schreiber is not a 'zimbabwean foreigner'.
