Xenophobia: Nigeria, South Africa, others sign peace accord

Representatives of Nigeria, South Africa and other citizens and groups in other parts of Africa yesterday signed a peace accord to begin a process leading to a non-violent means of settling differences and discouraging xenophobia in South Africa.

The peace deal, which was initiated by Nigerians In Diaspora Integration Agency (NIDIA), was signed in Abuja with the South African High Commissioner to Nigeria, Mr. Lulul Louis Mnguni as observer.

According to the President-General, NIDIA, Ms Caro Nwosu, who signed for Nigeria, there is no alternative to peace through non-violent dialogue to foster unity in the continent. She voted for stakeholders’ efforts to wipe-out xenophobia in South Africa.

Ms. Nwosu, who also presented a letter to Ambassador Mnguni en route South African President, Jacob Zuma, expressed concern that the xenophobic attacks were threatening the hard-fought freedom, democracy and peace not only in South Africa but in Africa as a whole.
