BREAKING: Buhari, Osinbajo meet over xenophobia as Nigeria boycotts WEF in South Africa

The country has boycotted the World Economic Forum on Africa 2019 holding in Cape Town, South Africa.

The government is also deliberating on possible actions from within after some Nigerians carried out reprisal attacks against South African businesses in Nigeria including attacks on one of Africa’s largest food retailers, Shoprite, and telecoms giant, MTN, forcing the organisations to scale down operations.

“The boycott of WEF is another strong statement to the South African government and people because the Buhari administration will not stand and fold its arms after attack on any Nigerian citizen. This is the right step in the right direction. Mr. Onyeama said the federal government expected that such security operatives would eventually be incorporated in the South African police with a view to assisting it in pre-empting future attack against Nigerians.
