Two More Nigerians Killed In South Africa As FG Demands Justice
Two more Nigerians have been killed in South Africa, adding fresh pressure on Abuja to respond to continuing attacks and insecurity affecting Nigerians in the country.
The development follows earlier evacuation-related coverage of Nigerians in South Africa, including the return flight reported here.
Premium Times reported that the Nigerian Consulate in Johannesburg confirmed the two deaths. Vanguard also reported that the Federal Government condemned the killings and called for thorough investigations to ensure those responsible are brought to justice.
The latest deaths are likely to deepen concern among Nigerian communities in South Africa and renew scrutiny of diplomatic efforts to protect citizens abroad.
