As Nigeria seeks diplomatic resolution on the attack of its nationals in South Africa, indigenous carrier – Air Peace on Wednesday offered to repatriate those stranded.

The offer, the airline, said was a sign of its solidarity with President Muhammadu Buhari administration.

The Chairman of the airline, Allen Onyema, made the announcement while sympathizing with the victims who lost their lives and properties in the attacks.

According to him, the airline decided to bring back Nigerians in support of the action already taken by the federal government.
In reaction to the attacks in South Africa, the Buhari administration has recalled Nigeria’s High Commissioner to South Africa.

It also pulled out with some other African leaders who pulled out of World Economic Summit taking place in Cape Town.

In a letter addressed to the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, on September 4, 2019, Air Peace expressed readiness to evacuate Nigerians who are willing to leave the country and said that the airline would dispatch its flights to Johannesburg once the arrangement has been completed by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs.

“The xenophobic attacks on Nigerians in South Africa are an unfortunate incident and we cannot fold our hands and watch our fellow Nigerians be killed by South Africans.

D only ppl dat have made sense so far... Our so called President is yet to as much as even make a statement or address d issue personally... D S.A govt must b made to pay full compensation to d Nigerians who lost their businesses and lives

Most of them won't be happy they are traveling back to helll.

So they should stay there and die? We have many flaws as a nation but we're not barbarians. SA is country full of barbarian even their President is a notorious idiot. That unfortunate man has not said anything till date in condemnation of such an unfortunate attack which literally means he is in full support. They will soon hear it

Compensation of destroyed properties is a welcome development but for the lives lost?? I don't think no compensation can bring back the lives that was lost. Nigeria should severe ties with S.A!!! Nelson Mandela wept for this useless citizens of SA,he must have knew his citizens are barbarian. Shame on them!!!

Simplyleo:
It also demanded full compensation , the News Agency of Nigeria has reported, quoting a
“presidential source.”

Is dat d official stance of d govt or a rumoured official stance of d govt... An unnamed presidential source ?

My fear here is,
Shey the planes will be station at different airports in SA, how will the stranded Nigerians there, hiding be able to make it to the airports,

This is a case of calling Nigerians in a hostile place where dey are been target to rendezvous at a particular location, how will they make it alive since they have decided to fight back and infuriate the SA's more.

Except helicopter will be allowed to pick them up from the streets to the airports.

Okay

Why d noise everywhere?

The nigerians there don't wanna come home. To do what na

The same source reported the recalling of the high commissioner.

Or you prefer buhari call you on phone to personally inform you?

Some people won't come

That's an act of patriotism, FG should take advantage of it immediately

Noted, Nigeria government should give its citizens a sense of belonging, what even stop them from thinking in this line of evacuation,

What Buhari refuse to do

Oby is in SA now for World Economic summit where the poor Nigerians are been massacred in cold blood but I didn't hear anybody shouting "betrayers"....

But if it was a Yoruba politician the whole cyberspace would have been painted with "sell out! betrayers!! Afonja!!!" by her kinsmen.


Funny people.

The same day...
Xenophobic attack on Nigerians.

Oby in SA for world economic summit.

Phyno release new album.

That's a good one. Peace to all our brothers and sisters who are still alive but in great fear over there.

Our beloved Bubu is still dragging his feet.
