Nigerian singer and songwriter, Tiwa Savage in reaction to the xenophobic attacks in South Africa have cancelled her scheduled performance in the country.

She described the attacks on Nigerians and other nationals in South Africa as “sick” and added that this is the reason why, she would not be participating in the festival.

 

Savage’s reaction to the xenophobic attacks comes a day after talented Nigerian artiste, Burna Boy, vowed never to visit the country.

The self-acclaimed ‘African Giant’ took to his Twitter on Tuesday to vent over the recent attacks, stating that he had also had his fair share of xenophobic experiences in South Africa.

According to him, although his dream had always been to see a united Africa, that dream may no longer be feasible until the government takes decisive measures against the situation.
