The xenophobic attacks on Nigerians living in South Africa during the weekend continue as their businesses were targeted and destroyed.

A mob destroyed four shops and several houses belonging to Nigerians at Krugersdorp, near Johannesburg on Saturday, reports say.

Mr Cyril James, the Ward Chairman of the Nigerian Union in the area said the attacks began on January 18.

Many Nigerians suffered severe injuries during the attack. We have left our homes for safety because they (South Africans) are regrouping to attack us again,” he said.

“Two Nigerians have been killed, many displaced and injured in fresh Xenophobic attacks and extra-judicial killing,” he added.
