Nigerians fleeing xenophobic attacks in S'Africa head home

The first group of Nigerians repatriated from South Africa following escalating anti-immigrant attacks was due to land in Lagos on Thursday. 262 passengers were expected on a flight chartered by Abuja. Anti-foreigner violence has convulsed South Africa for weeks, with gangs demanding undocumented foreigners leave by June 30. Ghana, Mozambique and Malawi have already repatriated hundreds of their citizens.
