The Aviary Club of Nigeria has called on the South African government and the Federal Government of Nigeria to work together in ensuring that there is an end to violence against foreign nationals especially Nigerians in South Africa. “There is a need for the South African government to take concrete steps in terms of effective policing, arrest and prosecutions. “It is time for the government to ensure that all xenophobic attacks in the country are investigated and those found culpable brought to justice as a lack of accountability for such acts empower the cycle of xenophobic attacks. He added that the development of the continent depends on the freedom of movement and smooth relationship between African countries; and when Xenophobic attacks occur, the train of development is derailed. Aviary Club called on the South African government to take concrete action on its citizens involved in attacks of foreign nationals and stop South Africans from attacking fellow Africans
