The News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) reports that the latest killing brings the number of Nigerians killed in the former apartheid enclave since February 2016 to 118.
Up to 800,000 Nigerians, mostly young people, reside in South Africa, according to unofficial estimates.
The Publicity Secretary of the Nigeria Union in South Africa, Habib Miller, told NAN in a telephone interview that two additional Nigerians were killed in South Africa in the past eight days.
Mr Miller, who spoke with NAN from Pretoria, South Africa, identified the latest victims as Francis Ochuba, a native of Ngodo community in the Umnneochi Local Government Area of Abia. May God put an end to this.
He named the other victim as Chidi Ibebuike, a native of Uturu in the Isikwuato Local Government Area also in Abia.
