The UAT criticizes the expropriation law as insufficient for land justice

The United African Transformation Party (UAT) says the expropriation law, which was signed into law by President Cyril Ramaphosa this week, falls short of addressing the historical injustices of land expropriation.
The political party said the law, presented as a solution to South Africa's land crisis, reinforced unequal patterns of land ownership that were established through colonialism and apartheid.
Said the new aligned law himself with Section 25 of the Constitution, which prioritized compensation for expropriated land.
“This approach fails to address the root causes of landlessness and dispossession in South Africa. By restricting restitution to land lost after 1913, the law excludes previous expropriations that began with the Arrival of European settlers in 1652,” UAT stated.
He said this exclusion denied justice to generations of Africans whose land was seized long before the implementation of the 1913 Land Law.
