Nigerians in South Africa are living in fear once again after renewed Xenophobic attacks.
The new attacks which started in Pretoria West at about 4 am Saturday, has seen natives looting Nigerian-owned businesses and a church.
Ikechukwu Anyene, president, Nigeria Union, said intelligence report suggests that that there will be more xenophobic attacks against foreigners on February 22 and 23, and already he has advised members of his union to take precautionary measures.
“As we speak, five buildings with Nigerian businesses, including a church have been looted and burned by South Africans.
“One of the buildings is a mechanic garage with 28 cars under repairs, with other vital documents, were burned during the attack.
“Also, the pastor of the church was wounded and is in the hospital receiving treatment,” he said.
Anyene said the union had informed Nigerians in South Africa to be vigilant in the face of renewed xenophobic attacks.
Anyene called on the federal government to persuade its South African counterpart to protect Nigerians in their country.
“These attacks should not be allowed to continue because it is a big setback,” he said.
