An eye witness in the ongoing South African Xenophobic attacks has recounted how the deadly attacks started in the country.
In a video doing rounds on Social media, two eye witnesses have narrated how a tax driver was shot dead in Pretoria town.
They say the attack on the tax driver was carried out by Tanzanians who have been terrorizing people in the town of Pretoria for a long period now.
According to the witnesses, the alleged Tanzanian Nationals do drug trafficking in the South Africa’s town and rob people.
They say they normally blame the attacks on Nigerians and convince the media and everyone that it is Nigerians who carry out the deadly attacks.
The attacks have triggered violence and widespread looting of South African-owned brands in Nigeria.
Protesters set fire to many entrances leading into a busy mall housing South African retail store Shoprite and looted groceries and toiletries from the supermarket in Lagos, Nigeria’s commercial center.
Another outlet belonging to the chain and one owned by South African mobile company MTN were vandalized in Ibadan city in southwest Nigeria on Tuesday despite appeals from the government for peace.
Many other stores owned by Nigerians were also plundered in the raids.
