A leading policy voice in Ghana has called for urgent government action as tensions rise in South Africa over renewed xenophobic attacks.
Kofi Bentil, Vice President of IMANI Africa, has urged authorities to immediately deploy a presidential jet to evacuate Ghanaian nationals caught in the violence.
Bentil warned that the safety of citizens abroad must be treated as a top priority, stressing that swift evacuation could prevent potential casualties as attacks intensify.
The call comes amid growing concern over the welfare of African migrants in South Africa, where periodic outbreaks of xenophobic violence have repeatedly threatened foreign communities.
Pressure is now mounting on the Ghanaian government to respond decisively as fears grow over the unfolding situation.
