Former Aviation Minister, Femi
Fani-Kayode, has commended President Muhammadu Buhari and the federal
government for shunning the World Economic Forum (WEF) holding in South Africa.
The government took the decision
in response to the xenophobic attacks on Nigerians.
The Forum, which kicked off on
Wednesday, had no Nigerian delegation in attendance. Other African countries
joined Nigeria in boycotting the event.
Some of the other African
countries that have pulled out of WEF are Rwanda, Malawi and DR Congo.
The Nigerian government is
exploring possible options, including sanctions against the South African
government.
Reacting on Thursday, Fani-Kayode
tweeted: “I commend the FG and @MBuhari for boycotting the World Economic
Forum.
“When it comes to the South
African matter we must set our differences aside and stand as one.
“The FG has taken a good first
step but must do far more. South Africa must pay dearly for her insolence and
barbarity!”
