South Africans on Sunday began fresh attacks, looting and burning of properties belonging to foreigners in Johannesburg.
Mr Olubajo said the attacks began on Sunday morning in Jeppestown area of Johannesburg when a building was set ablaze by an angry mob.Reacting to the incident, Mr. Chinda called for the reconvening of the house to resolve on the best way to protect Nigerians. “I call on the leadership of NASS to reconvene the Assembly immediately. Our citizens are killed and our nationhood threatened by South Africa.”“It is snarls of responsiveness and irresponsibility on the part of government to stay one hour and do nothing while defenceless Nigerians are gruesomely killed in a foreign land without cause.
“Nigeria spent her money, boycotted international events, carried the crusade to all parts of the world.”
