NOW GET OUT OF HERE, YOUR MESSAGE HAS BEEN PASSED BUT IT IS LEFT FOR US EITHER TO TAKE IT OR DUMP IT


I AM DUMPING IT IN THE CANNAL OF BAYELSA AND MIND YOU THE BOKO HARAM IS CAUSED BY STUPIDD NIGERIAN MUSLIMS AND KILLING THEMSELVES, NOT ALL NIGERIAN AND WE CHRISTIANS ARE OKAY, BOKO HARAM IS ONLY IN 200 SQ KILOMETERS


NOW A MESSAGE FOR YOU UBUNTU ZULU PEOPLE, LEARN HOW TO COMPETE AND STOP WHINING LIKE A DOGG IN A HEAT. ITS A CAPITALIST ECONOMY AND A DOG EAT DOG SITUATION, AS OF CRIME, SOUTH AFRICANS LEAD THAT AREA DUE TO INDOLENCY AND DOCILITY SO DEVIL BUILT A WAREHOUSE IN YOUR MIND AND USING YOU AS TOOLS AS YOU PEOPLE AS A WILLING TOOLS TO COMIT CRIMES LIKE EVEN KILLING YOUR OWN LUCKY DUBE YOUR BROTHER THINKING IT WAS A NIGERIAN


NOW ARE NIGERIAN THE CAUSE OF HIV RAVAGING YOUR PEOPLE, YOUR MEN ARE LAZY ALL RECRATION THE GET IS SEXX SEXX SEXX AND THEY DO THAT WITHOUT GOOD DUREX AND THIS IS THE RESULTANT EFFECT

I WILL ADVISE YOU TO RUN TO YOUR MINE AND WORK, THE WHITES ARE RUNNING YOUR ECONOMY, WHAT HAPPENED TO EDUCATION, WHAT HAPPENED TO ENTREPRENUERSHIP, WHAT HAPPENED TO CAN DO SPIRIT, THESE ARE LUXURY THAT YOU CANT AFFORD

NOBODY GIVES IT TO YOU ON A PLATTER, YOU GOTTA WORK YOUR ASSS OUT

Thandolwethu:
I start by imploring you to read this letter with an open and unbiased mind as this will enable you grab the full gist of my message.
I am a full blooded South African, born and bread in Soweto. I have never been to Nigeria and my impression of your Country is formed by the behaviour and actions of the many Nigerians who live in SA and what we hear and read from the media about the goings on in your country.
I deliberately joined Nairaland today as I noted that alot of you are on this Forum hence its a good platform to pass my message. Suffice it to say that i will delete this account after this message. I will read your responses with keen interest.

1. There is no question that there was xenophobic attack on Foreigners in SA in the past 3weeks. What is in doubt is the scale of the attack. I have noted that Nigerians have overtly blown the crises out of proportion by spreading lies and wrong informatiom concerning the crisis. The idea that South Africans are going round SA cities killing, maiming and burning Foreigners is a lie. Only 7 people have been killed so far and of these 7, 3 are south Africans, 2 Ethiopians and 2 Mozambican. The world media is in agreement with these figures. While its 7 lives too many that doesnt give credence to the news going round in Nigeria that we are killing and burning Foreigners. If thats true then there would be more people dead.
STOP BELIEVING WHATYOU READ AND WATCH ON social media as most are lies and fabricated figments of the imaginations of mischievous Nigerians in other to stoke the flame of discord between Nigeria and SA.

2. Why are Nigerians up in arms against SA with xenophobia when the war in Nigeria is far worse than here in SA. Boko haram is killing thousands your people everyday and theres no end in sight meanwhile no Nigerian has been killed in this Xenophobic attack. That is why Nigerians throng our embassies in Lagos and Abuja seeking Visas to come to SA and escape the despicable living conditions in the slums of Nigeria.

3. This recent Xenophobic attack was predicated on the fact that Foreigners commit so much heinous crimes in SA without impunity and we are tired of all these. We have our own criminals here so we cant add more problems from foreigners.
A. NIigerians are the kingpins of drugs killing our children and society. Your brothers drug our girls into prostitution. They con our people with fraud and 419. They hack into our bank accounts stealing millions.

B. Zimbabweans are involved in robberies and car hijackings

C. Mozambicans kill our farmers and take our jobs for peanuts leaving many South Africans jobless

D. Ethiopians and Somalians open shops to do illegal activities and pollute our communities. Theres a Somalian shop in every 2 houses on every street in SA. No Country can allow that.

SA has its own issues but we would like to solve them without the added problems of Foreign crimials.

If you like burn down shoprite and close MTN its your people that will suffer because these companies employ millions of Nigerians. They will simply go jobless.

Thank you

You really think without Shoprite and MTN, we will starve or beg or be unemployed? have a rethink my friend.
Have you heard about China There are far better countries than SA that would be willing to invest in Nigeria
Moreover, your people are lazy,uneducated and dull..even if they send foreigners away, who will do your jobs?
Your men spend all their youth drinking alcohol whilst the vast majority of your women breed kids for different men
Get this right, Nigeria is great and we have all it takes to be the best in Africa, your Govt pampers you yet your
People cannot make a life out of the freebies, the average Nigerian is a hustler,go-getter right from birth. As for

Our president might have lost our confidence, but it sure doesn't give you the right to address him in such manner. Mind you, a country that has to send away immigrants in other to put it's house in other does not deserve to exist.

I would also want to crave your indulgence on the fact that your people and companies are spread across Nigeria and we sure know what to do if the need arises.

I personally work with over 26 SA citizens whose company is executing a contract with my company and also in Ghana. You guys will only do more harm than good to your economy.

Utter rubbish. You put up a bunch of words together as intelligently as you possibly could and yet, it still reads as utter rubbish.

So because we are fighting Boko Haram, we should shut up about our African brothers being killed, injured, maimed and displaced?

And to your other point about MTN and Shoprite, if you haven't heard, Nigeria brings in about 40% of profits for both entities and while I would never advocate any form of violence but the power of economic boycott would have an impact on both entities. And for the record, the same crimes you accuse other Africans of, MTN and Shoprite are guilty of. They have poor staffing practices, cheat Nigerians of our hard earned money and don't build capacity of our people.

Finally, lol at Shoprite and MTN hiring millions of Nigerians...you might as well have said billions now...donkey

Thank U my brother, this is an insult to us as a nation. I will blame our leaders for bringing to the state of disrepute from a country like SA

So u grant them visa just to get them killed, I gez 4rm ur letter the xenophobic attack is not directed towards foreigners but Nigerians. The fact is,
1. Mtn is not the only network in nigeria, the elimination of Mtn only mean the prayer time of Mike adenuga paid off
2. And for Multichoice (Dstv), close & better substitute is just by the corner.
Finally, if u dnt no country in the world is going to send any foreign company(s) out of it country, that's why we have policies to frustrate them out
Least I forget, shoprite is out of it....if you don't know we have better Stores & malls in Naija. So direct your aggression on your govt that is not responsive or responsible enough to attend to your needs by providing brilliant policies & programs.

SA also travel to other countries to constitute nuisance just as you referred to other countries. Your country is not excluded... Let me remind you that Nigerians also have multi- national companies and industries in SA that has employed lots of you guyz.

The president said South Africans had started to become lazy since the shackles of apartheid were loosened.

Zuma related an anecdote of a visit he made to an unnamed African country during the liberation struggle, reported Sapa.

"I got there and people were working very slowly, they were not in a rush, and I asked the comrade who was taking me, 'What's happening?'

"He said people don't work fast, people say they are free. The white man has left, they are now free."

Zuma warned that freedom is "not something that is in the air

http://www.news24.com/SouthAfrica/Politics/Zuma-complains-about-lazy-South-Africans-20150325


Bapela said this during a visit to traditional leaders and Khoisan representatives in the city.

He also used the opportunity to condemn reported xenophobic attacks as “shameful acts perpetrated against fellow human beings”.

“Jobs that are shunned by South Africans, such as mining, farming and jobs in the hospitality industry are being given to foreign nationals, who are prepared to work hard. South Africans do not want to get their hands dirty and rely on the government to provide them with free houses and free schooling.”

Foreigners are not lazy like you poor South Africans: President Zuma says

"The reality you can't find protests in other places is that there is no hope. When foreigners come to South Africa, because they are not used to government handing [out] things, they get here and see opportunities and thrive," said Zuma.

"Our people are waiting for government. Our people are not used to standing up and doing things. These ones [foreigners] are not expecting any government to do anything so they get here, see opportunities and exploit them. They have taken over your small businesses."

Thandolwethu:
I start by imploring you to read this letter with an open and unbiased mind as this will enable you grab the full gist of my message.
I am a full blooded South African, born and bread in Soweto. I have never been to Nigeria and my impression of your Country is formed by the behaviour and actions of the many Nigerians who live in SA and what we hear and read from the media about the goings on in your country.
I deliberately joined Nairaland today as I noted that alot of you are on this Forum hence its a good platform to pass my message. Suffice it to say that i will delete this account after this message. I will read your responses with keen interest.

1. There is no question that there was xenophobic attack on Foreigners in SA in the past 3weeks. What is in doubt is the scale of the attack. I have noted that Nigerians have overtly blown the crises out of proportion by spreading lies and wrong informatiom concerning the crisis. The idea that South Africans are going round SA cities killing, maiming and burning Foreigners is a lie. Only 7 people have been killed so far and of these 7, 3 are south Africans, 2 Ethiopians and 2 Mozambican. The world media is in agreement with these figures. While its 7 lives too many that doesnt give credence to the news going round in Nigeria that we are killing and burning Foreigners. If thats true then there would be more people dead.
STOP BELIEVING WHATYOU READ AND WATCH ON social media as most are lies and fabricated figments of the imaginations of mischievous Nigerians in other to stoke the flame of discord between Nigeria and SA.

2. Why are Nigerians up in arms against SA with xenophobia when the war in Nigeria is far worse than here in SA. Boko haram is killing thousands your people everyday and theres no end in sight meanwhile no Nigerian has been killed in this Xenophobic attack. That is why Nigerians throng our embassies in Lagos and Abuja seeking Visas to come to SA and escape the despicable living conditions in the slums of Nigeria.

3. This recent Xenophobic attack was predicated on the fact that Foreigners commit so much heinous crimes in SA without impunity and we are tired of all these. We have our own criminals here so we cant add more problems from foreigners.
A. NIigerians are the kingpins of drugs killing our children and society. Your brothers drug our girls into prostitution. They con our people with fraud and 419. They hack into our bank accounts stealing millions.

B. Zimbabweans are involved in robberies and car hijackings

C. Mozambicans kill our farmers and take our jobs for peanuts leaving many South Africans jobless

D. Ethiopians and Somalians open shops to do illegal activities and pollute our communities. Theres a Somalian shop in every 2 houses on every street in SA. No Country can allow that.

SA has its own issues but we would like to solve them without the added problems of Foreign crimials.

If you like burn down shoprite and close MTN its your people that will suffer because these companies employ millions of Nigerians. They will simply go jobless.

Thank you
