President of the Nigeria Union South Africa, Adetola Olubajo, had said that recent attacks began on Sunday morning in Jeppestown area of Johannesburg.

Mr Olubajo said in a statement on Monday that the mob “looted several shops that were around the vicinity suspected to be owned by foreign nationals.”

Reacting to the development on his Twitter page, Murray-Bruce said;

“I am saddened by the stories and videos coming out of South Africa.

“I’ve also read reports that the Nigerian embassy in South Africa denied entry to Nigerians who visited to register their displeasure.

“These incidences are unfortunate. Our citizens deserve better!.”

Action they say speaks louder than Voice

If Nigerian Embassy in South Africa can deny Nigerians entrance into the embassy in order to lay their complaints...

Forgive me to say this.... Our Nigerian Embassy in South Africa are just like Joseph's brother who sold him to Egypt.

Which way Nigeria? angry

You hit the nail on the head

Are Nigerians in SA ready to leave?

Government can't do anything if they are not ready to leave.

Buhari is supposed to meet with SA President And Discuss Big Issues As This With Him But He Chooses To Rather Tour With Our Resources Than Give Attention To His Job, Protecting His Citizen...
ITS SOO UNFORTUNATE To Have A President Like Him, Standup For Your Country, Protect The Interest Of Your Citizen...

All our leaders know how to do is go on Twitter and rant. It doesn't change anything. Let them put in work and less of talking.

Which resources?

Re: “Nigerians Deserve Better” - Ben Bruce On Xenophobic Attacks In South Africa by BobiNick(m): 8:47am On Sep 03, 2019
Ok. Now if you look properly we all know that more of the Nigerians in SA doing businesses are ipob. This same PMB that they insult every time is still the person that is pursuing the issue for them all as Nigerians and not as ipob.

My question is what is the leader of ipob doing for his people in SA in regards to this issue. I was thinking that by now he would have channeled his energy to helping his people fight for their lives. But NO he is waiting for an opportunity to attack PMB. I still feel so much pity for those who still takes the Cownu man seriously.

May God save all Nigerians in SA.

The so-called South African companies in Nigeria are only South African brands with Nigerians owning the majority stake.

You Must Be Joking, We Are African, We Supposed To Be United... We Have Their Major Companies Here And Their Citizens Here Aswell But We Happily Take Allowed Them.
Our Leaders Are Major Sources Of Nigerian Being Taken For Granted... If We’re Innovative Enough To Build Companies, Give More Attention To Strengthening Glo, Reopen Textiles, Stable Electricity, Drop Food Prices For Even To Avoid Hand To Month Directly And Organize More Orienting Programme Free To Citizens, Nigeria Would Be One Of The Best And Will Be Respected More
