On S. A., if I were President I’d have:
1) Strengthened FGN Embassy to offer protection to our citizens
2) Worked with diaspora structures to ensure Nigerian immigrants obey S.A. laws
3. Seek holistic solution to xenophobic trends in the Nigeria-S.A. Bi-National Commission 1/2

4) Demarche (diplomatic warning) to S.A. after initial attacks
5. Sanction S.A. interests in Nigeria after attacks continued (to compel @GovernmentZA to seek effective solutions)
6. Send Special Envoy to negotiate conditions for reversal of reprisal
7. Evacuation possibilities

@NigeriaGov foreign policy and diplomatic machine have been weak and underfunded for many years, severely limiting its ability to protect Nigerian nationals abroad. There is just an absence of a worldview of who we are and therefore Nigerian lives matter at home and abroad.
