We are dying in silence” – A Nigerian woman in South Africa cries out over growing hostility

A Nigerian woman living in South Africa has made an impassioned appeal to the federal government over what she described as worsening hostility and increased hardships faced by Nigerians living in the country.

In a viral video circulating on social media, the woman lamented that many Nigerians in South Africa are currently living in fear in what she called a “hostile environment” and lack of adequate protection or support from relevant authorities.

He said Nigerians in the country are experiencing difficult and unsafe conditions, warning that the situation is becoming unbearable for many of them who rely on the diaspora community for survival.

According to her, the absence of timely intervention and diplomatic engagement has left Nigerian citizens vulnerable, adding that urgent steps are needed to address their security concerns.

“We are dying in silence,” he said, calling on the federal government to urgently engage the South African authorities and ensure better protection and fair treatment for Nigerians residing in the country.

The video has since sparked renewed conversations about the well-being of Nigerians in the diaspora, particularly in South Africa, where concerns about hostility and strained relations have occasionally been reported.

At the time of filing this report, there has been no official response from Nigeria
