shoprite to sell off investments in nigeria

Business activities have resumed at various firms owned by South African nationals in Lagos.

At the Shoprite centre in Lekki, business went on as it did before the reprisal attacks following the xenophobic attacks on African residents in South Africa. Nigerians were among those targeted.

Some Multichoice offices at Agege were, however, not open for business.

PEP at Ogba is back with customers engaging in shopping.

At Bode Thomas in Surulere, the DSTV was also open for business; a staff also confirmed they resumeed work nationwide on Sunday.

He said some branches reopened on Saturday, but stressed that by Sunday morning all branches had reopened.

Although the office was looking well set and activities going on smoothly, the workers told our reporter that hoodlums last week went away with some television sets and damaged some valuables.

“Those hoodlums entered, scattered the whole place, damaged our air conditioner outside, forcefully removed one of the television on the slab and smashed it on the floor. We all ran for our lives. The police later came and chased them away.

“We are back now, activities have commenced, you are safe here,” he said.
