The Federal Government, through the Nigerians in Diaspora Commission, NIDCOM, frowned at the hostility against its citizens in South Africa.
Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of NIDCOM, Abike Dabiri-Erewa, said this on Thursday during an interview on ‘Politics Today’, a programme on Channels Television.
She said what Nigeria will do in terms of bilateral relations will be heard from the Minister of Foreign Affairs and the presidency.
“Honestly, enough is enough. Enough really has to be enough, but whatever will be done, you’ll hear from the higher authorities.
“For us as a commission, we’ve been engaging people to people. We’ve gone there many times to talk to our own people, but I tell you something, like I said, none of these people that came back committed any crime in South Africa.
“If one person commits a crime, get that person and deal with that person. You cannot generalize. But don’t forget that it’s not just Nigerians, but we have a higher number, so it’s something in them, and their government is looking the other way,” she said.
