A dramatic video circulating on social media has sparked widespread debate after a group of alleged illegal Zimbabwean miners were confronted in Bergusfort, Limpopo. The men, believed to be operating without proper permits, were reportedly apprehended by local vigilantes who accused them of illegally mining chrome in the area. In the viral footage, the group — popularly nicknamed the armpit gang — can be heard shouting “uyaniburara,” a plea that quickly caught the attention of online users across South Africa and Zimbabwe.
Authorities are said to be investigating the matter as concerns grow over rising tensions between illegal miners and communities affected by uncontrolled mining activities. Many online users have called for proper law-enforcement intervention, while others have urged communities to avoid taking the law into their own hands. The incident has once again highlighted the complex challenges around undocumented mining, safety, and cross-border economic struggles.
