President Muhammadu Buhari is scheduled to visit South Africa next month.
His trip is tied to the incessant attacks on Nigerians and other Africans living in South Africa.
This was made known in a statement by the Nigerian High Commissioner to South Africa, Kabiru Bala.
He called on President Cyril Ramaphosa’s government to act, before the attacks on Nigerians and other Africans escalates.
He added that, Nigerians should be confident of support from their country’s embassy and consulate in Pretoria and Johannesburg, respectively.
“All Nigerian victims of the current attacks are requested to come forward to report their situation to the high commission and the consulate,” Mr Bala said.
“The two missions will continue to be home to all Nigerians in this trying times and in the future.”
The statement is against the backdrop of Nigeria’s foreign minister, Geoffrey Onyeama, who summoned the South African high commissioner in Abuja for talks about the latest targeting of Nigerians and other Africans living in South Africa.
