Following protests by Nigerians against
attacks on foreigners in South Africa, the
country on Wednesday announced the
closure of its consulate in Lagos.
The country’s Consul-General in Nigeria, Sam
Monaisa, said this in a statement to the South
African Business Forum.
According to him, the closure would remain
in force until Thursday.
Although the situation in Durban has calmed
down, he was concerned about the Nigerians
that were being repatriated.
Monaisa accused Nigerians of “using the
social media to blow an already tensed
situation in South Africa out of proportion
and stoking emotions.”
This was why Nigerians believed that their
compatriots were being killed daily in South
Africa, he said.
He warned members of SABF, to stay alert
and not move around unnecessarily.
South African business concerns and citizens
became targets of threats and acts of
retaliation whenever xenophobic attacks
occurred in South Africa, he cautioned.
Meanwhile, South Africa’s cabinet has
warned that companies operating in the rest
of Africa might be targeted, just as
Johannesburg-based Sasol Ltd. announced it
was repatriating South African employees
working on projects in Mozambique for their
own safety.
