The leader of Odua Peoples Congress, Dr. Fredrick Fasehun while addressing journalists at a press conference today in Lagos gave South Africans 48 hours to stop the xenophobic attacks against Nigerians or face its wrath.
Dr. Fasehun says the citizens should not forget that South Africans are also in other countries including Nigeria and have businesses to protect.
His words:
“While the Nigerian government and the rest of the world seek a diplomatic solution to this season of madness, the OPC hereby warns that South Africa must end this rash of xenophobia within 48 hours. These ill-advised attacks are capable of bringing out the beast in the best of men. And we will not watch as fellow Nigerians are wantonly killed in cold blood.
“Enough is enough. South Africans must know that nobody has a monopoly of violence. They must halt the killings, the maiming and the looting of foreigners’ shops in their country. These incidents of xenophobia will provoke reprisals against South Africans and their interests in other lands.
“Thus, beginning with the belligerent Zulu King, all South Africans involved in these attacks should be arrested immediately and prosecuted for crimes against humanity.”
When asked what he and his men will do in case the attack does not stop, he said:
“South Africa has many business interests in Nigeria but of course, you do not expect me to reveal what we will do until the time is right,” he replied.
