XENOPHOBIC ATTACKS: PRESIDENT BUHARI RECEIVES REPORT OF SPECIAL ENVOY TO SOUTH AFRICA, DIRECTS ON NEXT STEPS



In the wake of the xenophobic attacks by South Africans against other Africans including Nigerians, President Muhammadu Buhari sent Amb. Ahmed Rufai Abubakar, Director-General, National Intelligence Agency (DGNIA) as his Special Envoy to South Africa, to convey a Special Message to his counterpart, President Cyril Ramaphosa. The Special Envoy, who was in Pretoria from Thursday, 5th to Saturday, 7th September 2019 conveyed:

· The deep concern of President Buhari and Nigerians about intermittent violence against Nigerians and their property/business interests in South Africa.



· President Buhari stressed the need for South African Government to take visible measures to stop violence against citizens of brotherly African nations.



· President Buhari is worried that the recurring issue of xenophobia could negatively affect the image and standing of South Africa as one of the leading countries on the continent, if nothing is done to stop it.



· The Special Envoy conveyed the assurance of President Buhari that the Nigerian Government is ready and willing to collaborate with the South African Government to find a lasting solution to the involvement of few Nigerians in criminal activities, and to protect the lives and property of the larger groups of other law abiding Nigerians and indeed Africans in general, against all forms of attacks including xenophobia.



· President Buhari further assured that the Nigerian Government will guarantee the safety of lives, property and business interests of South Africans in Nigeria.



· On his part, President Ramaphosa agreed that the violence was most disconcerting and embarrassing, adding that his government completely rejects such acts, which undermine not only the country’s image but also its relations with brotherly African countries.



· President Ramaphosa reaffirmed his stand against criminality and committed to do everything possible to protect the rights of every Nigerian and other foreign nationals in the country.



· The Special Envoy also interfaced with his South African counterpart, where they reviewed the situation of foreign emigrants in general and Nigerians in particular. They agreed to work together to find a permanent solution to the root causes of the recurring attacks on Nigerians and their property.



· President Buhari has taken note of the report and instructed the Honourable Minister of Foreign Affairs to continue to engage with appropriate Authorities on the concrete measure the South African Government is expected to take.



· President Buhari has also given instruction for the immediate voluntary evacuation of all Nigerians who are willing to return home.

Nigerian government should push South Africa to the wall until they give account of the xenophobic attacks on foreigners especially Nigerians and force them to compensate those whose shops were looted that's all nothing more nothing less and also end that acts like this are not recorded again...

Nothing special

South Africa on their part have subtly approved the mob action as suggested by the various press release by goverment officials.

They have justified attacks on foreign business as attacks on only Nigerian drug dealers and Nigerian human traffickers

Even though, there were attacks on numerous Ethopian and Pakistani businesses, we have have also seen a Ghanaian footballer shot by security operatives.

I do not think that going to SA is a good move for our president. They should be the one's coming here to beg for their many sins against not just Nigerians but against humanity at large.
