President Cyril Ramaphosa Meets Nigeria's Obasanjo

Recent xenophobic violence in South Africa against foreign nationals, including Nigerians, placed a strain on relations with African countries and President Cyril Ramaphosa sent several envoys to explain and apologise. A visit from by former Nigerian president Olusegun Obasanjo to South Africa, while on his book tour, could heal wounds between the two countries.
