As reactions mounts over xenophobic attacks in South Africa amidst fears, the government of country’s High Commission to Nigeria has shut down its offices and consulate.
The acting High Commissioner, Amb. Bobby Moroe, said he had directed the Mission to suspend all consular activities until the situation improves.
Moroe stated, “I directed that the Mission should be closed until the situation improves. We heard that South Africans were being pulled out of vehicles and attacked. We feel unsafe and that is why I directed that the mission should close down until further notice.”
