Amidst the continental cries against recent xenophobic attacks in South Africa, the South African government has reportedly denied claims that such instances have occurred in the country.
The country’s High Commissioner to Nigeria, Bobby Monroe, made this known when he met with the Minister of Foreign Affairs, Geoffrey Onyeama, in Abuja earlier today.
Addressing the media during a briefing after the meeting with Onyeama, Monroe said the recent attacks were not ”xenophobic” in nature but are rather mere ‘sporadic acts of violence’.
According to Monroe, businesses belonging to other South Africans were also affected in the violence that erupted yesterday Monday, September 2nd.
