South African rapper, AKA, is calling for peace between Nigeria and South Africa.

This follows the controversy surrounding the recent xenophobic attacks on Nigerians and other foreign Nationals in South Africa.

This comes a day after the South African rapper was seriously dragged online by Nigerians, as well as celebrities like Vector, Burna Boy, Ycee, Perruzi, Skales and many others for being insensitive on the issue.

Taking to Twitter this morning, AKA wrote: 'PLEASE!!! Can we STOP. We are going to make things worse for everybody on both sides. We need each other! ... please. Can we stop. We are supposed to be leading our people.'
