Just as some Nigerians are pained over the xenophobic treatment being meted out on Nigerians and other Africans living in South Africa by the country’s citizens, Nollywood actress-cum-producer, Halima Abubakar, is also hurt by the development.
The chocolate complexioned and hour-glass shaped actress expressed disgust over the incident, which is not happening the first time to Nigerians living in South Africa.
She condemned the act, asking how Africans became heartless to fellow Africans.
“I feel so sorry for the officers behind smiling at their fellow Africans on fire. Our values have depreciated. Where did our parents go wrong? Where is our heart? Seeing another suffering seems to make a lot of people happy; too many dining with the devils and thinking they are about life.
“This inhumane treatment must be stopped. We are Africans, and South Africans should know that first hand. I am very disappointed and saddened,” Halima said on Wednesday.
