HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!

JACOB YOU TOO FUNNY.

ITs OBVIOUS****in Julius malema voice***

if we talk am dem go say naija don start with insult.

Your number 1 Citizen has confirmed it.



But all foreigners (especially from poorer countries) are hard working compared to locals, I read comments on this forum where the people from one region were described as lazy by those coming from another region. The East Europeans and South Asians say the same thing about local British people.

1. There's nothing such as a north African Caucasian?? That's a dubious way of including West Asians into Caucasoid aka "white" classifications.

2. Berber/Amazighs who are indigenous North Africans are not the same thing as calling invading Arabs "Africans.". Even they acknowledge that.

3. All human beings are not African. According to the "out of Africa" theory, All descendants of homo sapien sapiens originate from Africa. Big difference.

Berbers are west Eurasians, they're from the Levant.
All Caucasians are descendants of middle eastern farmers from the fertile crescent, Europeans, Berbers, Arabs, Iranians, north Indians even horn Africans are all Caucasians.

If Berbers are Africans, than Afrikaners too are Africans.

Eurocentric 19th century race science BS. The dubious substitution of "white" for "Caucasian"_ A so called anthropological cranio-metric measurement.

Meanwhile these guys are not Negro according to that pseudo science. The horn of African Caucasian comment is just laughable.

You can subscribe to that nonsense if it makes you feel better or simply stick to the topic. Afrikaners are not indigenous to the continent.

Genetically Somalis, Habesha, Oromo etc are closer to Berbers and Arabs than they're to other black Africans. this is fact.
Horn Africans just like Berbers are a result of back migration from the Middle East.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Caucasian_race

Caucasian race (also Caucasoid [1] or Europid [2] ) is the general physical type of some or all of the populations of Europe, North Africa, the Horn of Africa, Western Asia , Central Asia, and South Asia. [3]

Genetically speaking African Americans have 15 to 30% European genes in them. Why haven't they been grouped with Caucasoids at this point.

Horn Africans have about the same % of genetic component in their DNA from West Asians, the rest is indigenous African and some how they fall into this category because their head shapes and nose bridges cluster with West Asians.

Again BS science.

Wikipedia nonsense again from 19th century race science supported by carlton coon.

Caucasian_ anyone belonging to the race of most europeans, also known as white

Caucasoid_Any one having the same cranio metric head shape as people who inhabit europe, this would include North Africans, West Asians, Central Asians and the likes.

In other words anyone who's headshape is similar to that of a white person can be refered to a caucasoid. An "oid" means to be like something but not quite as in Android or humanoid. So everyother people including Horn Africans are like White people but not quite like them.

Again an attempt to cast teh Caucasian net across the planet to claim peoples who are not "white" and use Caucasian as the archetype.

Sorry I can see through eurocentric science. You can believe that nonsense if if helps you sleep at night. Its all gibberish to me.

Why is it these non Africans below are not considered negroids or Africoids when it is plain to see that they can be considered as such. Double standards at play here.

Please stick to the topic on Zuma;s comments and let this one go. You wont win.

just one question, were they paid for their work or not? and for the record, development is not about building structures. we have structures as well

Obviously they were not paid enough, but still it doesn't change the fact that Black people built the country, I don't get what your point is.

look at it this way, we paid the Chinese to build a couple of structures for us, and they tell us they built nigeria. . dude seriously? the boers built SA for themselves and they paid you for your work. you were never part of the ownership plan thats why you were segregated (until the world, plus Nigeria cried out). did you 'built' denel too?

We know that race is a social construct, what we're interested in is ancestry. Individuals in the AA population vary in the amount of European ancestry they have, this ranges from less than 5% to over 90% (one drop rule), in a different society like Brazil, some AA would have been classified as White.

In the horn of Africa, West Asian ancestry is over 50%, which is why horn African cluster with West Asian and not SSA.

The point is, the groups classified as Caucasian/caucasoid aren't just close physically, but genetically too, meaning they have a common origin. Unlike those pics you've posted (who were grouped with black africans BTW, so there was no double standard), they only cluster physically with black Africans, but don't genetically, culturally, linguistics etc.

Show them and what they've built, why is it that when ever I see a project on the front page it's always foreign firms doing the construction? Why would Nigeria do a policy like BEE, was there any discriminatory policies against curtain groups in Nigeria in the past?

You do have federal character ofcoz, why is that?

Check this one on the FP for example, construction firms doing construction. CCECC Nig and Julius Berger, where are the indigenous construction firms?

Everybody was paid, black and white, those will be proud of what they build in Nigeria. Point is, all south Africans contributed into making SA what it is now, just because some were unfairly treated doesn't mean they didn't contribute.
In fact, the country would have been more developed and far better (economically and socially) today if there had been no discrimination.

How Germans Abuse Nigerian Workers, On Nigerian Soil

By Emma Amaize WARRI-NIGERIAN workers of Julius Berger Nigeria Plc, Ekpan, near Warri, Delta State, have protested alleged persecution and prejudice against them by a German official of the company, who directed that low- grade black workers should not have a canteen on the company's premises.

Carnegie Commission of Investigation on the Poor White Question in South Africa
" (1932)
was a study of poverty among white South
Africans that made recommendations about
segregation that some have argued would
later serve as a blueprint for Apartheid .[1] The
report was funded and published by the
