African diplomatic tensions have risen due to anti-immigrant protests. Thousands of migrants have been forced to leave South Africa after violent protests erupted earlier this year. Nigeria's parliament has suspended official visits to South Africa indefinitely in response to these events.
The parliament is concerned about reports of Nigerians being killed, injured, or displaced during the attacks. Many Nigerians have also been forced to abandon their businesses and properties. South Africa has historically attracted foreign nationals from across the continent due to its relative wealth and opportunity.
Further details about the situation and Nigeria's response are available from the source. The suspension of official visits is a significant development in the diplomatic tensions between the two nations.
