The Nigeria Labour Congress, NLC has condemned the attacks on businesses and killings of Nigerians. It blamed the South African government for the increasing xenophobic attacks on Nigerians and other Africans.

NLC’s President, Ayuba Wabba in the statement said the attacks and killings are awful and unacceptable.
It added that the frequency and increase of the attacks are not only unacceptable but are capable of destabilising the bilateral relations between the government and people of Nigeria and government and South Africa.
