Over the last one week, there have been murderous attacks on Africans living in South Africa as armed gangs go about attacking them in cities like Durban, Pretoria and Johannesburg.
With South Africa’s economy in a downward spiral, locals have taken their frustrations out on fellow Africans and dozens of migrants have been murdered in the streets in cold blood.
During the attacks in January, the Minister of Small Business Development in South Africa said “Foreign shop owners must share their trade secrets with people in townships where they operate to curb violence and looting”
Meanwhile, the Nigerian foreign ministry has announced that the evacuation of its citizens in South Africa will begin on Monday, 20 April. Nigeria’s high commission in Pretoria has said that Nigerians who feel endangered and do not have the fare back home to quickly make themselves available for evacuation.
