Ghana has escalated concerns about xenophobic attacks on African migrants in South Africa by petitioning the African Union to examine the incidents and consider intervention. According to reports, the Ghanaian government sends a complaint to the AU following a spate of anti-foreigner protests that raise fears of further violence against people from other African countries. Ghana’s complaint focuses in particular on attacks affecting Ghanaian citizens in South Africa. The government urges the AU to weigh in and address the situation as part of broader efforts to uphold African solidarity and unity. The petition also calls for the issue to be formally considered at an upcoming African Union meeting in June, including by adding it to the meeting agenda. The reports describe Ghana’s move as an effort to ensure the matter receives regional attention and that appropriate steps are taken in response to the attacks and tensions linked to the protests.
