The deaths of two Nigerian nationals recorded on 21st and 26th April in South Africa were not related to the ongoing protests, but occurred following police arrest, one died in custody, while the other allegedly died in hospital after suffering ill-treatment. The Ministry invited the South African Acting High Commissioner for discussions last week, where Nigeria restated its position and pressed for stronger protection of its nationals in South Africa.
