They Killed Him to Start a Race War - It Almost Worked | Chris Hani Africa Unsolved | Ep 3

Easter Saturday. April 10th, 1993. A man steps out of his car in a quiet Johannesburg suburb after buying a newspaper. Four bullets later, South Africa came closer to a full scale race war than at any moment in its history. Chris Hani wasn't just a political leader. He was the man South Africa's most dangerous extremists feared more than anyone else - including Nelson Mandela. So they made a plan. Compiled a hit list. Stole a weapon. And sent an assassin. But the conspiracy ran deeper than the two men convicted for it. A missing diary. Tampered evidence. A police investigation that was deliberately shut down. And questions that were never fully answered - even after thirty years. In this video, we tell the full story: Who Chris Hani was and why the apartheid regime considered him Public Enemy Number One The political conspiracy behind the assassination and who really supplied the weapon How South Africa came within hours of a full scale race war The speech that saved a nation - and who gave it The missing diary pages and the unanswered questions that remain ⚠️ All content is based on verified court records, Truth and Reconciliation Commission testimony, and documented historical sources.
