Acting Police Minister Firoz Cachalia has rejected any suggestion that Nigerians are specially victimised in South Africa by virtue of their nationality, telling a Nigerian journalist during a press briefing today, he would follow up on four alleged crime cases while stressing the need to distinguish illegal immigration from general criminality amid rising migration tensions.
“So please convey the message to your citizens and to your leaders as well that this is the sentiment that you experienced in South Africa. We in this country supported all the African teams in the FIFA World Cup. We’re not confused about our identity.” Acting Police Minister Firoz Cachalia
