Ace Ghanaian actress, Yvonne Nelson has condemned the renewed xenophobic attacks ongoing in South Africa.
In the past few days, there have been reports of xenophobic attacks being committed by South Africans against foreigners. Some video footages that have emerged online apparently capture the South Africans inflicting ghastly attacks on foreigners in some parts of the country.
Multiple local media outlets in South Africa have also reported that rampant looting of shops and torching of buildings have been registered in riots. The portals add that looters have targeted businesses of foreigners.
In her reaction to the gruesome acts ongoing in South Africa, Yvonne Nelson tweeted to condemn the acts. She said the South Africans involved in the xenophobic attacks should be ashamed of themselves for attacking their own brothers.
South africa!!!!! The world is watching….why are you so bitter?? Why do this to your own brothers?? SHAME!!
