Nigerians in South Africa face mass
deportation
— February 5, 2016
Go home Nigerians, we hate you and your
country
There are strong indications that a massive
deportation of Nigerians resident in South Africa
looms as the government is on the brink of
deporting thousands of Nigerian Citizens in the
country.
On Wednesday February 3, 2015, South African
Police rounded up Nigerian nationals living in
Kempton Park in an early morning raid However,
the incident which began like a script from a
movie has taken a sinister dimension as the
detainees have been transferred to Lindela
Prison.
Reports monitored in Lagos revealed that the bulk
of the detainees are citizens of Nigerians
numbering in their thousands .
The Prison located in Krugersdorp, West
Johannesburg is a deportation centre which in
theory is the last address of anybody brought
there before they are deported from South Africa.
In August 2014, a High Court in Johannesburg
ruled as unlawful and unconstitutional, the
detention of foreign nationals at the Lindela
Prison.
One of the wrongfully detained Nigerian who
spoke to Sunday Sun from Lindela Prison,
disclosed that the bulk of the detainees are
Citizens of Nigeria with a sprinkling of
Zimbabweans and Congolese nationals.
“We are beaten and dehumanized by the South
Africa Police who told us that they hate Nigeria
and her Citizens.
“They have refused to renew our papers , our
lives are in serious danger because they have
resorted to drugging the foods they bring to us.
“As Nigerians, we face constant police brutality
and hatred. It is sad that we are going through
this harrowing experiences because we are
Nigerian nationals.”
A fortnight ago, a similar action by the South
African police led to the untimely death of a 33-
year-old Nigerian, Daniel Chinedu Timothy.
