--:--

How difficult is it to cross the South African border illegally? Reporter Lindokuhle Xulu took his journalistic endeavour to a new level to prove the porous nature of border control in South Africa. Imagine you had woken up from a 2019 coma in 2020! It seems the Pope is into Brazilians... who can blame him?
