The African migrants in China are being subjected to precarious human rights abuse arising from the state repression and racial discriminations, which came to the spotlight during the Covid-19 pandemic. Although the international media bodies and the social media reported cases of xenophobic attacks on African nationals in China during the coronavirus outbreak, there exist inadequate empirical documentation and systematic analysis of the incidents by scholars. Thus, the study examined the nexus between human rights violations and xenophobic attacks on African migrants in China during the Covid-19 Pandemic. Methodologically, we adopted the state repression theory as our theoretical framework; ex-post facto research design; documentary method of data collection; and qualitative descriptive method of data analysis. The study found that China's disregard for the human rights of African migrants accounted for the xenophobic attacks on African community in China during the Covid-19 pandemic. The study recommended among others that there is the need for Chinese state to implement legislations and policies that will protect and safeguard the human rights of African migrants in China.
