The President of Nigeria Union in South Africa, Ikechukwu
Anyene, has made known to all Nigerians living in South Africa that the South Africa
communities have ordered all Nigerians to leave their land.
He said the Kuruman community in
Northern Cape Province gave Nigerians until Thursday to leave the place while the
Klaafontein community, Extension 5, Johannesburg, took a more subtle approach
and directed landlords not to renew the rent of Nigerians in the area. He said
the South African's grouse with Nigerians is that they believe they are
responsible for some social vices like illicit drug trade and prostitution.
Anyene further said a Ugandan man raped a girl in Kwazulu Natal Province but was described in the media as a Nigerian.
He said to the News Agency of Nigeria:

He said to the News Agency of Nigeria:
“The Nigeria union held series of meetings with the
affected communities as well as police and local authorities on the recent
threats to Nigerians. We have also written reports on these incidents and sent
to the Nigerian Mission and the South African police. We recommended
interventions before the June 16 deadline to the mission and we are waiting for
their response. The union is worried that any incident involving non -South
Africans are attributed to Nigerians. The union believes that the Early Warning
Unit set up by Nigerian and South African governments has not been effective.
We are yet to have any meeting since the ministers of the two countries met.
Since then, there have been sustained media propaganda against our people.”
