Dance in the way back to school to find out how one leading nigeria is using downs to get kids off the streets and into the classroom. And i. Are welcome to the show. In nigeria following the spate of xenophobic violence in south africa after nigerians well among those i talked in johannesburg recent days im groups in the west african country how about talk South African businesses in response now some of those firms have closed the bottom of my dear ians are calling for a more measured reaction. In Lagos Nigeria town. Get it at south African Stores theyre responding to Violent Attacks in south africa against foreigners including 1000 now some attending to violence themselves protesting because i was about we can go back to tyrants we are not a right because we have seen it but now she quit again some of them and youre angry not during your its you know her you went into the shop right because of what was really happening South African franchise shoprite was among those targeted the Company Closed several of its stores jute the damage. In the capital a big clashes at a shop right supermarket that put traffic to a standstill after demonstrators burned tires and threw rocks at the stall. In lagos groups were seen stopping cars and attacking drivers believed to be south africa and. Others called for a stronger response from nigerias government let me use our leader. You should we should welcome partner felt the need to talk a little bit nigerians come out and speak in a joint and see this is what we are doing when you keep quiet with no options for the people to do something i want to people want to do something not abuse the knowledge of choreography peaceful protests proceed are going to want to react our president. Should do something or gente to civilize because if this thing continue like this it may cause was. Nigeria has stepped up security around South African still its a major concern that could again same thing to violence meanwhile the government has said it will send a special envoy to deliver its condemnation directly to south africa. For more on this were joined by a professor at kalibo come up with here from pretoria hes a political scientist at the university of south africa hello professor many thanks for your time now theres been a retaliation in nigeria against South African businesses but surely violence is not is not the solution to violence as it. Violence is definitely not the solution we hope and believe us against especially those in south africa not only the government as you say the police in everyone here or in just out i would say its a country welcome to their senses. And be able to deal with this issue in the way that if its the status of the continent and retaliation and counterretaliation in my view its not going to be solution as they say you know and ive and i mean. We dont want. Ok now lets listen to a clip from president. Attacks on. People who run businesses from foreign nationals and something thats totally unacceptable. And something that we cannot allow. To happen in south africa where people who are running their own businesses that are taxed to businesses are destroyed through looting and being firebombed. Something that is completely against the ethos that we saw the african tax policy. So professor we had him there he has condemned the attacks but how can his government gain control of the situation. There are many ways in which his government can gain control and. Condemnation itself in political terms and in diplomatic dance perhaps that suffices but there we need you know the thought of Going Green Solutions being in practical you know sites that used to deal with this one way is to ensure that the governments of what is called the j. C. S. Is justice hes in security glass these are it is the cluster of ministries and deal with issues to do with security and safety and related month us they have to come up with yesterday used to continue the situation we are no way that this kind of fight. And the north will be got takes in my view actually offer from being a texan and i was mostly targeting you know black africans from other countries even though the out. Of bounds and so on so these attacks in my view have not just did it ever since you were here yesterday isnt it that on 2000 just and then and so you need to get to the hoot you know cause of these some of the root causes of these kind of these kinds of attacks as we talk to people on the call they say that because of competition. Between you know foreign and mostly and documented part of illegal you know my parents and South African so they have to deal with the other issue is that you know corruption within this group the last especially in terms of the police and the customs immigration of you just will accept bribes and a lot people who. Are basically that is the strategy that i think to deal with including suicide organizations as well ok now theres increasing the pressure on the car from celebrities politicians and ordinary citizens what impact could this have on the situation. Savaging impact in my view for as long as the celebrities politicians diplomats and so on net you know people from the African Union studied in other countries even the un yes im is very gentle im a bit of the Un General Assembly all of these were put into bad creations of the out commendable however we need a homegrown sort of self against themselves to say people are these and other organizations churches are just bodies and must end up and i dress this issue the root cause as i keep it to this point now what about the African Union keep condemning the attacks but what practically can be do to help do with us. Actually my view we need not only just a condemnation by the African Union or somebody doesnt like to be and we have condemned the attacks maybe. We need much more than that i think we need an african you know task force of some sort that will help solve it with closeness of. The root causes of this issue its almost like a problem often migrants. You know jumping or stay somewhere in the mediterranean the same thing i think the Current Situation and some of the crises that you quite as much more than a nation they need to come up with that you know some kind of force we can price was often forced to deal with the issue ok professor my pulling your Political Sciences university of south africa in pretoria many thanks for your time.
