South Africans are losing their citizenship - and don't even know it. DA fights little-known rule

Dr Rory Jubber, leader of the Democratic Alliance Abroad, explains how South Africans of all demographics - and many medical professionals and healthcare workers - are finding well-paid jobs elsewhere but it comes at the price of SA citizenship. The DA has taken on this issue in court; a judge is expected to rule in the next month or so. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
