Former lawmaker, who represented Kaduna Central Senatorial District, Shehu Sani, has said that Bafana Bafana of South Africa are paying the price of their xenophobic mobs in the ongoing FIFA World Cup.
Sani made this remark in a post on his verified X handle on Thursday.
He was reacting to South Africa’s loss in the opening of the tournament.
Recall that the South Africa side suffered a 2-0 defeat to co-hosts Mexico in the opening match at the Mexico City Stadium.
Similarly, South Africa attacking midfielder Themba Zwane has been suspended for three matches for his red card against Mexico, subject to appeal, by the FIFA Disciplinary Committee.
Reacting to the development, the former lawmaker said, “Bafana are paying the price for the behaviour of the Xenophobic mobs in their country.”
