Burna Boy Takes Decision Against South Africa Over Xenophobic Attacks

Burna Boy, a Nigerian Afropop singer, says he will never step his feet in South Africa again in reaction to the recent Xenophobic attacks on Nigerians residing in South Africa.

YaahooJournalist reports that properties including cars belonging to Nigerians in the country were set ablaze by South Africans in the wake of the Xenophobic attacks.

In a viral video, South Africans also looted shops belonging to Nigerians. No fewer than three persons were reportedly killed.

Reacting to the Xenophobic attacks in a series of tweets on his official handle, Burna Boy said he had suffered from such attacks too and hasn’t been in the country since 2017.

Burna Boy said he will not change his decision until the South African government wakes up, a situation he doubts will ever happen because they may never fix what they have caused.

”Ok. I have been away from social media personally until today. Ordinarily at a time like this, I should come here and say something to try and calm the situation because my Dream has always been to Unite AFRICA and make us realise that Together we will Literally rule the world.

”But Today After watching the Killing of my people in South Africa the same way we have all watched it happen a few times in the past. F**K ALL THAT! I personally have had my own xenophobic experiences at the hands of South Africans and because of that.

”I have not set foot in SA since 2017. And I will NOT EVER go to South Africa again for any reason until the SOUTH AFRICAN government wakes the fuck up and really performs A miracle because I don’t know how they can even possibly fix this.

”This goes against everything I stand 4, but at what point do we take action? I understand that years of Oppression has confused South Africans to the point where they see the people who came to their defence during their Oppression as their Enemies and then worship their oppressors.”
