MTN Condemns Xenophobic Attacks in South Africa

MTN Nigeria has condemned xenophobic attacks against African migrants including Nigerians in South Africa.

Ferdi Moolman, chief executive officer, MTN Nigeria, in a statement released on Tuesday said “MTN Nigeria strongly condemns hate, prejudice and xenophobia and reiterate our unequivocal condemnation of all violence.

“We seek to connect people, bring people together and provide a platform for everyone’s voice to be heard. We are against all forms of bigotry and discrimination; they should have no place in society.

“Everyone has the right to a world where their rights and freedoms are respected — the right to live and earn a living, freely, safely and protected by the law.”

 

It would be recalled that the leadership of the National Association of Nigerian Students recently threatened to shut down the South African Embassy in Nigeria.

 

The student body also threatened to close down DSTV, MTN among other business operated by South Africans in Nigeria.
