A Zambia based South African farmer, Erasmus Vleikop (52) is trending after he sent a racist voice note on a farmers whatsapp group.
The Sowetan newspaper reports that Vleikop was livid after his Randfobtein home was robbed while he was away in Zambia where he works as an electrical contractor.
In the voice note, Vleikop gives out his full name, phone number and home address and makes claims that he has previously killed a black person and will do it again.
The Whatsapp group administrator removed Vleikop from the group after he posted the voice note.
A local farmer told the newspaper that Vleikop is one of a group of farmers who are die hard racists.
The farmer said Vleikop uses black people who work for him as he pleases and then dumps them.
When the Sowetan visited his home, Erasmus denied being racist and said he was heavily medicated for Malaria at the time he sent the voice note.
Erasmus told the newspaper that he is not racist and has many black friends.
