The Nigerian Union in South Africa and families of Nigerians killed in that country may soon get justice as the South African Police have arrested eight policemen in connection with the alleged brutal murder of a Nigerian in that country.

The President, NUSA, Mr. Adetola Olubajo, confirmed the arrest of the policemen to the News Agency of Nigeria on the telephone from Pretoria on Friday.
