Nigeria will fly out 600 nationals from South Africa after a wave of xenophobic attacks aimed at foreigners, including Nigerians
A mob armed with spears, batons, and axes run through Johannesburg's Katlehong Township during a new wave of anti-foreigner violence on September 5, 2019.
"They are about 600 now" to be flown back, Godwin Adamu, Nigerian consul general in Johannesburg, told AFP news agency. At least 10 people were killed in the violence and hundreds of shops destroyed while more than 420 people were arrested.Foreign workers in South Africa — the continent's second-largest economy after Nigeria — are often victims of anti-immigrant sentiment in a nation where almost one in three people are unemployed.
