Johannesburg -An international migration agency says it is helping Zimbabweans who hoped to find a better life in South Africa to head home.The International Organisation for Migration arranged a bus trip for 33 people on Wednesday to return to Zimbabwe from Johannesburg's Central Methodist Church.
The church is crowded with hundreds of Zimbabweans who have fled their troubled country.
Zimbabweans have arrived in South Africa seeking jobs, food and medicine. Those who left on Wednesday had been unable to find work or better shelter.
South Africa officially entered a recession this week and some see Zimbabweans as competition for scarce jobs.
Zimbabweans have been victims of anti-foreigner violence.
