Diminutive social media sensation, Iddrisu Firdaus, widely known as Shatta Bandle has reacted to the current xenophobic attacks in South Africa.
These xenophobic attacks were mostly targeted towards black owned businesses specifically Nigerian businesses operating in South Africa.
It is the view of some South Africans that foreign nationals have taken over their jobs and economy it is their strong opion that driving them away, would help regain their jobs and economy.
They are also of the opinion that most sex trafficking rings, drug businesses and diamond smuggling operations are being run by Nigerians hence their decision to loot, burn and destroy properties belonging to Nigerians not regarding if they are actually involved in the above mentioned acts.
It is, however, unfortunate the sad incident occurred on the “richest man in Africa“, Shatta Bandle’s birthday.
According to Shatta Bandle, the news on how South Africans are treating nigerians is totally unfair and saddens his heart causing him distress as he is unable to enjoy his birthday.
He took to his official instagram page to call on Africans to say no to the barbaric act. He entreated all to let love lead as he captioned his post, “It’s SAD hearing what is happening in South Africa. We are all one people, Let love lead 🖤. If I vex I’ll buy the country ooo #saynotoxenophobia “
