Xenophobia: We’ll not cave in to South Africa, Nigerian govt vows
The Nigerian government said on Wednesday that it had drawn ‘a red line’ with South Africa over the xenophobic attacks on Nigerians in the country.
Mr Onyeama also confirmed that Nigeria would recall her ambassador to South Africa over the matter for a briefing. “And I think that is very important because, on social media, there is a lot of stories going around of Nigerians being killed, jumping off buildings and being burnt. This is not the case.
Some of the businesses targetted include those of telecoms giant, MTN; retail store, Shoprite; and clothing store, PEP.The reprisals have been condemned by the Nigerian government and various state governments including those of Lagos and Delta.
