The National Association
of Nigerian Students (NANS) has given 48 hours ultimatum to all South African
companies in Nigeria to relocate over the xenophobic attacks on Nigerians in
South Africa.
The students gave the
ultimatum at a peaceful demonstration at some South African companies in Abuja
on Thursday.
During the march the
students carried a banner, which read: ‘’NANS Against Xenophobic Attacks on
Nigerians.’’
While the students
marched, the security men stood and watched to ensure law and order.
The President of NANS,
Mr Kadiri Aruna, said in an interview with News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) at
DSTV office, a South African company, in Wuse 2, Abuja, that Nigerian
students had resolved to condemn the attacks.
“We are saying that
enough is enough as South Africans have openly attacked and bullied
Nigerians.’’
Aruna said that the
protest would also serve as a warning to other countries trying to underrate
Nigerians.
He said that after 48
hours, if nothing was done, messages would be sent to students in all
university campuses to bring down MTN masts all over the country.
Aruna said that DSTV and
Shoprite would also be affected as the union had put adequate strategies in
place to make the action effective.
“All the South African
business empires in Nigeria and their collaborators in Nigeria will be
affected.
“I don’t want to say we
will be barbaric but we will not be lawful in our actions, we will do it and
face the consequences, enough of this rubbish,’’ he said.
