Ghana’s High Commission to South Africa warns Ghanaians in Pretoria after threats of xenophobic attacks by some groups. this caution was made in a statement released the Ghana High Commission on Wednesday, September, 7.
The statement noted that individuals claiming to represent various groups against the presence of foreigners have announced or broadcast plans to attack, rusticate or remove foreigners from their jobs or workplaces and even out of the country from the beginning of September 2022.
It added: “Whilst recognising that this is not a government or state policy, such activities by individuals or groups could degenerate into violence aimed at foreigners or threaten their lives, safety and livelihood.”
The Ghanaian community are therefore advised to be vigilant, restrict their movement to safe places, avoid mass gatherings and refrain from activities that have potential of generating chaos.
