South-South national leader and Convener of the Pan-Niger Delta Forum , Chief Edwin Clark, has advised the federal government to handle the relationship with the South African government with mature diplomacy.
The elder statesman, who noted that the South African government had taken the first right step by sending its representatives with an apology message, however noted that while to ask for further show of commitment from South Africa in the form of compensation for losses incurred during the attacks, would not be wrong, such should not be done alone by Nigeria.
“The South African government did the right thing by sending the special envoy, it is the right step to take, but more than that, other issues of further steps should be discussed when President Buhari goes to have the meeting with President Ramaphosa of South Africa in October.
