Nigerians Blocked From Healthcare In South Africa By Anti-Migrant Group – NUSA
August 24, 2025
The Nigerian Union South Africa (NUSA) has accused the anti-migrant group Operation Dudula of blocking Nigerians and other African nationals from accessing public healthcare facilities, leading to deaths as many resort to self-medication.
NUSA President Smart Nwobi described the actions as illegal and xenophobic, noting that even pregnant women and children with valid documents are being denied treatment. He criticised the Nigerian Consulate for failing to intervene, despite growing attacks and threats to also block foreign children from public schools in 2026.
NUSA said it is working with human rights groups and diaspora organisations to mount a legal response, while urging President Bola Tinubu to step in diplomatically.
