We are seeing empty flights from Nigeria to South Africa. I honestly don't know how to thank God. Saying thank you is not enough, He does not deserve it. Let's keep pushing South Africans 🇿🇦

@Ojukwu_Bianca The whole world is chasing Nigerians away, you people need introspection. We will not allow thugs, drug dealers to destroy our beautiful country

SOUTH AFRICA PROTESTS: SITUATION REPORT. There is heightened anxiety over the series of anti-foreigner protests, also targeted at Nigerians in select cities in the republic of South Africa in recent weeks. The President of the Federal Republic of Nigeria has expressed grave concern on this situation following a briefing, and has called for more effective control of the situation by relevant host security services. The images pervading both mainstream and social media depicting violence, carnage and targeted xenophobic killings of foreign nationals and demonstrations characterized by xenophobic rhetoric, hate speeches and incendiary anti-migrant statements by the arrowheads of such rallies, have generated worldwide condemnation . However, recent public statements of key host government officials including President Cyril Ramaphosa, Home Affairs Minister Leon Schreiber and Police Affairs Minister Firoz Cachalia, all express total opposition to any form of extra-judicial killing and destruction of properties of foreign nationals as well as anti-foreigner propaganda and xenophobic sentiments which promote or create anarchy in the land. The protests spearheaded by a local anti-migration movement, in Pretoria and Johannesburg, between 27 - 29 April 2026, witnessed a largely peaceful procession, under the presence of heavily armed police who occasionally sprayed teargas to deter the protesters from engaging in violent activity. There is no recorded killing of any Nigerian or destruction of Nigerian- owned properties during this particular protest. However, two Nigerian Nationals have been reported dead in separate incidents involving security personnel- AMAMIRO CHIDIEBERE EMMANUEL died on 25th of April 2026 as a result of injuries sustained from brutal beatings by military personnel of the South African National Defence Force on 20th April 2026 in Port Elizabeth. NNAEMEKA MATTHEW ANDREW also died following an alleged interaction with members of the Tshwane Metro Police, and his body discovered at the Pretoria Central Mortuary on 20th April 2026. This is utterly condemnable and unacceptable. The Nigeria High Commission is closely following investigations into these unfortunate incidents and Nigeria demands justice be done in these cases. Another Demonstration is planned for 4-8 May 2026 and President Bola Tinubu has directed that the situation be monitored very closely. Our Ministry of Foreign Affairs has also summoned South Africa's High Commissioner to Nigeria regarding the ongoing situation. The Nigerian High Commission and the Consulate are in constant communication with relevant host authorities to ensure that the exposure of our nationals to the current tensions is minimized amidst ongoing Consultations with SA's highest authorities. The president has reiterated that the priority at this time remains the safety of our citizens. Consequently, arrangements are currently underway to collate details of Nigerians in South Africa for voluntary repatriation flights for those seeking assistance to return home. So far 130 applicants have duly registered for the exercise with our mission in S.A, but this figure is expected to rise. Nigerian associations in South Africa are also assisting our mission in this regard. Nigeria is a frontline state which made great sacrifices towards the liberation struggles of South Africa, a fact which needs to be distilled down to the younger generation in South Africa. Nigerian lives and businesses in SA must not continue to be put at risk, and we remain committed to working with South Africa to explore ways to put an end to this xenophobic pattern. It has become a repetitive wave, most especially prior to elections in South Africa, and anti foreigner opposition parties leverage this situation to garner votes. Nigeria recently signed a memorandum of understanding with South Africa on early warning to protect citizens of both countries, especially in times such as these.

South Africans please look out for this young toddler who was abducted from her Limpopo home 💔💔💔💔

PRESS STATEMENT XENOPHOBIC ATTACK: PROTECT NIGERIAN CITIZENS, END STIGMATIZATION, NIDCOM URGES SOUTH AFRICA GOVT The Nigerians in Diaspora Commission has called on the South African government to protect Nigerians and black immigrants in South Africa, expressing deep concern over the worsening persecution of black immigrants, in parts of South Africa. This was contained in a statement signed by the Chairman/ CEO of the commission, Hon. Abike Dabiri- Erewa. “ While many expected a de-escalation of tensions following earlier engagements between both governments, the situation on the ground is deteriorating”, she noted. Reports reaching the Commission indicate that pupils of Nigerian descent are now scared to attend school. Genuine business owners are afraid to open their shops for fear of targeted attacks, looting, and harassment. Community leaders have documented fresh incidents of violence and intimidation in the last 72 hours. NIDCOM appeals to the Government of the Republic of South Africa to take urgent and visible steps to protect all foreign nationals within its borders, as required under international law and African Union protocols on free movement and human rights. We state clearly that NIDCOM rejects the profiling and generalisation of all Nigerians. Crime has no nationality. Any individual, regardless of origin, who commits an offence should be investigated and made to face the full penalty of South African law. However, collective punishment and blanket labeling of an entire nationality are unacceptable and dangerous. NIDCOM therefore demands: Immediate Security: Increased police presence and patrols in flashpoint communities where Nigerians reside and trade. Accountability: Prompt arrest and prosecution of persons involved in xenophobic attacks, arson, and extortion. Dialogue: A joint Nigeria-South Africa community safety forum with police, city officials, and diaspora leaders. Non-Discrimination: Clear public messaging from South African authorities that condemns xenophobia and warns against stereotyping. We urge all Nigerians in South Africa to remain law-abiding, avoid high-risk areas after dark. We are in direct contact with the Nigerian High Commission in Pretoria and the Consulate in Johannesburg as well as the Ministry of Foreign Affairs. NIDCOM commends the majority of South Africans who continue to live peacefully with their African brothers and sisters. We believe in the historical ties that bind both nations and call for calm, restraint, and respect for human life. Nigeria will continue to work diplomatically with South Africa to ensure the safety, dignity, and rights of our citizens abroad. Signed Hon. (Dr) Abike Dabiri-Erewa Chairman/CEO Nigerians in Diaspora Commission Abuja, Nigeria . 29th April, 2026.
