sambos994: Well....in my opinion SA businesses in Nigeria doesn't matter because there is thing called.....wait for it....nationalization. So we kind of have an advantage. And say we don't want MTN or Shoprite anymore, it will affect SA. We're their biggest costumer. What this minister is saying is nonsense. Also, what has SA done for us diplomatically?
when you stop and think about all the investments done by S.A to nigeria you'll realise that most companies from S.A are not there for the oil but for different things like telecommunications,example being MTN yes,how do you nationalise a telecommunications company not registered in the Nigerian stock exchange but in the JSE?that privilege is preserved only for the government the company is registered under,the same thing goes with shoprite.p.s Nigeria is not South Africa's biggest customer,that tittle goes to one of the SADC regions

[quote author=kjhova post=12027144]I don't know if the Minister should be saying such or not. But what he said is not far from truth!

Take this comparison listed below:

GDP: S/A is a member nation of BRICS while Nigeria is nowhere near that standard yet.
Energy: S/A generates 50,000MW of electricity while Nigeria's 4,500MW!
Fuels: S/A exports refined pet. products while Nigeria imports refined products.
Forces: S/A armed forces basic equipment (guns, ammo, boats, helicopters, tanks, electronic gadgets) are produced locally by Armscor while Nigerian army still use AK-47.
Manufacturing: S/A's industrial output is rated by CIA.org as almost twice d entire African continent including Nigeria.
Investment: J'burg Stock Exchange (JSE) is more capitalized than the rest of subsaharan Africa combined.
Banking: S/A's top two banks; Standard & 1st Rand are bigger than the entire Nigerian banking industry in terms of capital base, reach, turnover & profits. Our StanbicIBTC is owned by Standard.
