Speaking at the celebration of the business news channel's first year anniversary, Gary Alfonso, COO of CNBC Africa, said the channel's management and all staff in all regions universally condemn any acts of xenophobia or violence against foreigners living in or visiting South Africa.

Alfonso emphasised that CNBC Africa hoped companies would take up the offer and would respond generously and help combat xenophobia and its debilitating effects. CNBC Africa also challenged other broadcast media companies to do the same.
