The Federal Government has expressed concern over the killings of three Nigerians in South Africa between the 14th and 17th of November, 2022.
The Consulate General of Nigeria in Johannesburg, in a statement issued yesterday, noted that it was saddened by the latest reports of killings of Nigerians in Durban, KwaZulu-Natal (KZN), explaining that it was as a result of intra-community violence that had not been adequately managed.
The Mission, however, appealed for calm and restraint while efforts were made by the High Commission, Consulate General and South African authorities to curb the violence.
It also called on religious/traditional and community leaders to bring their spiritual and moral authority to bear on current efforts towards an amicable resolution of the issues.
While commiserating with families of victims of the latest killings, the Consulate General appealed to members of the Nigerian community in Durban to eschew violence and any action that could lead to a degeneration of the current situation.
Nigerian megastar Burna Boy yesterday won the prize for the Best African Act at the 2022 MTV European Music Awards. Burna Boy was nominated alongside Ayra Starr, Black Sheriff, Tems, Zuchu and Musa Keyz. Tems lost the Best New Act prize to Seventeen while Nigerian disc Jockey DJ Spinall was one of the artists who performed at the award show that held in Dusseldorf, Germany.
