The Government of Ghana has strongly recent xenophobic attacks in South Africa.<\/p>\n

In a statement released by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and Regional Integration, Government said the attacks on African nationals and the looting of foreign and local shops was unfortunate.<\/p>\n

The Ghanaian Government has therefore urged authorities in South Africa to take all necessary action that will guarantee harmonious co-existence between South Africans and Africans resident in South Africa.<\/p>\n

The renewed attacks on African nationals started on Thursday, August 29, 2019.<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, Ghana\u2019s High Commission in Pretoria has also Ghanaians in South Africa to avoid areas prone to violence.<\/p>\n
