Two Nigerians were reportedly mauled by South Africans. The Nigerians were brutalized at Kuruman, Northern Cape of SA, as reported by a Facebook user, Martin Ogbaje.
He said “May God save us in this country South Africa, two Nigeria guys almost murdered yesterday in Kuruman Northern Cape. If not because of Police help, their lives could have been cut short.”
The Facebook user who posted the photos did not indicate why the Nigerians were beaten, but comments from other users indicated that the action may be drug related.
“As long as they continues to destroy our kids and country with drugs we will destroy them as well,” a commentator from South Africa said. While other commentators attribute this as xenophobic attacks which has been ongoing for years.
