Xenophobia: Nigeria Announces Date To Commences Evacuation Of Citizens In South Africa 1

Following xenophobic attacks by South Africans against foreigners, particularly those of African descent, the Federal Government has officially announced that Nigeria will commence the evacuation of its citizens from troubled South Africa on September 7, 2019.

The Minister of Foreign Affairs, Geoffrey Onyeama made the announcement in a statement while commending Chief Allen Onyema, who volunteered his airline, Air Peace, for the evacuation.

“The ministry of foreign affairs has conveyed the generosity of a patriot Nigerian airline operator and philanthropist, Chief Allen Onyema, to evacuate distressed Nigerians in South Africa who wish to return to Nigeria. The evacuation is already scheduled for 7/09/2019,” the statement said.
