White South African Ulrich Janse van Vuuren says he has no intention of taking up Donald Trump's refugee offer.

The 38-year-old Afrikaner has more than one million followers on social media.

Trump offered to help resettle 59 white South Africans who have left South Africa for their new life as refugees in the US .

But he insists that none of them are refugees, but rather "opportunists".

Ilse Steenkamp, 47 , and her family have applied for the programme but have not received feedback.

She said they were forced to abandon their farm after it was invaded by people who "took over the whole farm" She said the decision to leave "was very difficult because you're... leaving a whole way of life" But prominent Afrikaner groups AfriForum and Solidarity Movement have reiterated their intention to stay in South Africa .
