Xenophobic Attacks Disconcerting, South African President Tells Buhari’s Special Envoy via thisdaylive
Buhari directs foreign minister on next steps
A statement Monday by Special Adviser to the President on Media, Mr. Femi Adesina, on the submission of the report of the special envoy to Buhari at the Presidential Villa, said President Ramaphosa maintained that “his government completely rejects such acts, which undermine not only the country’s image but also its relations with brotherly African countries.”
The special envoy, who arrived Pretoria last Thursday, conveyed Buhari and Nigerians’ deep concern about intermittent violence against Nigerians and their property/business interests in South Africa. The statement said the special envoy conveyed the assurance of President Buhari that “the Nigerian government was 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.
