A Senior Advocate of Nigeria, Femi Falana, has called on the Federal Government to institute legal proceedings against South Africa over the alleged killings and abuse of Nigerians in the country.

Falana’s call follows the reported assassination of a Nigerian cleric, Michael Fakunle, in Johannesburg on September 4.

According to Falana, the Bishop was shot dead at his residence by unknown gunmen, after reportedly receiving threats. Barely 24 hours later, another Nigerian, James Nwankwo, reportedly died after alleged interrogation by officers of the South African Police Service.

Falana said despite repeated concerns raised by Nigeria, no one has been arrested, prosecuted or brought to justice for the killings.
