SA Closes Consulate In Lagos After Anti-xenophobia Unrest. by donshaddow(m): 8:56am On Apr 22, 2015 |
Protests were held outside the consulate and at the South African High Commission in Abuja. South African consul general in Nigeria, Sam Monaisa, said in an email to the South African business forum in that country that the closure would remain in force until Thursday. The situation in Durban had calmed down, but he was concerned about the Nigerians that were being repatriated, he wrote. He said Nigerians were using social media to blow an already tense situation in South Africa out of proportion and stoking emotions. This was why Nigerians maintained that their compatriots were being killed daily in South Africa, he said. South Africans becoming targets He warned the forum’s members to stay alert and not move around unnecessarily. South African businesses and citizens became targets of threats and acts of retaliation whenever xenophobic attacks occurred in South Africa, he cautioned. Meanwhile, in Zimbabwe 15 people who were part of a first group of Zimbabweans returning home in the wake of xenophobic attacks in Durban have “disappeared” in Musina, state media reported on Tuesday. The Herald newspaper said in an online update: “Fifteen victims disappeared in Musina where they reportedly claimed feeling safe because there were no xenophobic attacks reported.” There were no further details. Zimbabwe is repatriating up to 2000 of its citizens who have asked to be evacuated in the wake of the attacks. The first six buses carrying 407 Zimbabweans left Durban on Sunday.

Zuma is Zulu and Zulu is Zuma. He thinks like them,the reason he couldn't control them.Nigerians in SA should leave because when there's life,there's hope.I blame our government for neglect over the years.There's need to create a conducive Nigeria to accommodate all Nigerians.The task of rebuilding Nigeria is a task that must be done. |

On an interesting note, have been monitoring this xenophobic news day and night. The aftermath effect will dawn on South Africa when by the end of the year, they have lost so much foreign income. South Africa has a very large investment outside their shore, and this investments are owned by the whites and some by their government. Zimbabwe is closing its border, Malawi, Namibia, Mozambique, even Ireland is closing some of its business, Nigeria, and a whole lot of enterpreneurship which are owned by foreign nationals and giving jobs to South Africans. Now, they will have a very big economic recession. I'm sorry to say, South Africa is the way of Zimbabwe. 2 Likes |

Bureau of statistics was filled up with Igbos. Even the Hausas/Fulanis in military have never done this above show of shame and pure tribalism. And Igbos were quiet all through that administration cos others were marginalised. |
