This #Xenophobia attack on Nigerians in South Africa is saddening. Our brothers and sisters do not deserve this no matter what.

Hey South Africans, the recent acts of #Xenophobia are so disheartening. Please let us all live together as Africans. I can assure you that South Africans in other African countries live in peace. I hope this ends 🙏

Dear President @MBuhari, this is beyond your Minister for Foreign Affairs and SA Diaspora. You need to summon the South African Ambassador to Asorock immediately. Your citizens are being killed.
For once, act like a President! #Xenophobia

Felt like going to Shoprite this week, but in response to the outbreak of #Xenophobia in South Africa, I won’t be going. I will also avoid all South African owned businesses for a week, at least.
Fortunately, I am not an MTN subscriber.
A message has to be sent, somehow.

It’s sad that blacks have evolved to being the greatest advocates of racism. There is no love and unity again! #Xenophobia

Nigeria cannot even vex and ask her citizens to return home. Nigerians in diaspora will rather face hell abroad than return to Nigeria.
Harsh reality of a failed nation. #Xenophobia

These attacks have been on for a long time, Nigerians in SA have cried, others home have wailed..Yet no definitive action have been taken…We are tired of all these political statements…Nigerians need to see actions, the govt. need to hold the govt. of S.A accountable.

@MBuhari I hope you are seeing all these being done to Nigerians in SA, this is not a tribal matter so please don’t point fingers now, we need you to take action since you claim to be a man of action, #Xenophobia
