MP Alexander Afenyo-Markin will bring the issue of xenophobic attacks in South Africa to the Pan-African Parliament. He believes stronger coordinated responses are needed among African nations.
The MP stressed the importance of public intervention and unified actions by member states. This call comes amidst ongoing violence targeting foreign nationals in South Africa.
He stated that African countries must support each other and not turn against themselves. The goal is to find solutions to prevent further attacks.
The Pan-African Parliament serves as an advisory body, and discussions there can put pressure on member states to act.
Mr. Afenyo-Markin hopes this will lead to concrete measures to protect African citizens abroad.
