The standoff in South Africa against nationals of other countries has become worrisome. Of all the illegal migrants, Nigerians are the main target. It is just unfortunate that Nigerians have become an endangered species. Whether they choose to stay in their own country or decide to go hustle in other places, they are being singled out for mischief. Their itinerant nature would have been reduced if successive governments and administrations had been responsible with power. To the government that is crying blue murder against the South African authorities, it is fitting to say, "physician heal thyself."
