The Nigerian Union South Africa will inaugurate its presidential and national executives on Saturday.

A statement by the apex body of Nigerians in South Africa said the forum is themed ‘Uniting Nigerians in South Africa’.

It said the theme aligned with NUSA’s core objectives of promoting unity among Nigerians living in South Africa.

The body said the objectives also included supporting growth in trade and commerce and fostering stronger relationships between Nigerians and South Africans.

It added that the forum would feature the official launch of The Migrant Magazine.

The statement also said the occasion, billed for Sandton, Johannesburg, “represents a pivotal moment in NUSA’s journey to strengthen the bonds within the Nigerian community.”

The forum, it added, would amplify the voices of Nigerian migrants in South Africa.

Established in 2008, NUSA is a not-for-profit association dedicated to representing the interests of Nigerians in South Africa.

The organisation operates across all nine provinces and focuses on building a thriving community that positively promotes and supports its members’ strengths.

The new leadership is expected to continue NUSA’s tradition of providing legal support, advocacy, educational opportunities, and cultural promotion for Nigerians living in South Africa.
