  "account": "South Africa, acting as Chair of the Southern African Development Community (SADC), will host a regional migration summit, announced Minister in the Presidency Khumbudzo Ntshavheni during an interview with SABC News. Prior to a Bi-National Commission meeting between South Africa and Zimbabwe in Pretoria, Ntshavheni revealed that Presidents Cyril Ramaphosa and Emmerson Mnangagwa will address migration during their bilateral discussions. The minister clarified that the summit is not solely due to recent protests over illegal immigrants in the country, but rather an ongoing issue regularly discussed between the two leaders. SADC has a protocol in place for the free movement of people as part of regional integration, making migration a key topic during their deliberations. Ntshavheni emphasized that the migration issue is not isolated but has broader implications for safety, security, and communication within the region.",
