Ghana’s Foreign Affairs Minister, Samuel Okudzeto Ablakwa, has assured a 42-year-old Ghanaian hairdresser, who was subjected to a brutal xenophobic attack in Johannesburg, of the government’s commitment to the protection and evacuation of her and other Ghanaian nationals in South Africa.
The victim, Ms Akuffo, has lived in South Africa for more than two decades but was reportedly confronted and assaulted with sharp weapons by a group of hoodlums while attending to her daily business.
Her son has since petitioned the Ministry of Foreign Affairs to facilitate her evacuation back to Ghana.
