The Sustainable Infrastructure Development Symposium (SIDSSA) 2024

Good morning, and welcome to The Discourse. In recent months, a shadow has fallen over international human rights standards as a series of secret agreements between the United States and several African nations have come to light. Under a high-stakes migration strategy, the U.S. government has begun deporting non-citizens-many with no linguistic, cultural, or familial ties to the continent-to countries like Eswatini, South Sudan, and most recently, the Democratic Republic of Congo. In the kingdom of Eswatini, the arrival of these 'third-country deportees'-individuals originally from nations as far-flung as Vietnam, Cuba, and Yemen-has sparked a fierce legal and ethical debate. Peter Ndoro spoke to  Mzwandile B. Masuku, a human rights lawyer, co-founder of the Swaziland Litigation Centre, and the lead applicant in the legal case against the Eswatini government for accepting these deportees.
