Right-wing Afrikaner groups celebrate US president's ambush of President Cyril Ramaphosa .

But many South Africans are angry with right-wing groups, saying they have shown a lack of patriotism by lobbying the U.S. to take a tough line against the country.

South Africa has a government of national unity - made up of 10 parties from across the racial and ideological divide to tackle the nation's problems.

Some Afrikaners feel they can no longer live in South Africa , and Trump has offered them refugee status.

Nearly 60 of them have been resettled in the US .

Trump has given a boost to the right-wing, with some of them gathering outside the US embassy in Pretoria .

Land reform minister Mzwanele Nyhontso : "There is no genocide in S. Africa ".
