No fewer than eight Nigerians resident in South Africa have indicated interest to return home due to ongoing xenophobic attacks. This was made known by Nigeria's Consul General in South Africa, Amb. Uche Ajulu-Okeke. He added that the Nigerian mission was facilitating their evacuation.

The eight Nigerians are presently at the deportation holding facility at Limbola, South Africa. For those staying back, the Ambassador says the mission and Nigerian Union in South Africa had worked out a vigilance defence mechanism to protect Nigerians.
