moves to evacuate Nigerians in South Africa
following recent xenophobic attacks. In an interview

"The Federal Government of Nigeria should
rise up to the occasion by having
contingency plans to evacuate Nigerians

within 24 hours for safety either in our
embassy or mission for the safety of our
citizens," she said.
