EroZA: You said white south Africans are flocking to foreign countries,is Nigeria one of those countries? That was my simple question

We don't need South African brains to run things in Nigeria, every business we give your people, has a Nigerian version available and stronger. MTN can go if they want, we have Globacom and Visafone, we are only doing you a favour, but if you think otherwise, pack your bags and go away, Glo will take over MTN customers. You are flocking to Nigeria to get a better market, MTN customers in Nigeria is almost equal in number to the whole national population of South Africa, you have an over-saturated stagnant consumer market for any product or service in this world. Reason why Nissan is slowly moving it's production from South Africa to Nigeria started this month in Lagos Badagry production plant.

EroZA: my country is harboring thousands and thousands of Nigerian refugees..many nigerian illegal immigrants are wandering on the streets of SA

The travel visa South Africa gave the Nigerian's says visiting, working, tourist, or immigrant, NO REFUGEE VISA IS BEING GRANTED BY YOU TO US.

I said the monthly Tax 250,000 Nigerians pay while working or trading is a big source of revenue for South African government. You black citizens of South Africa are too illiterate, too poorly skilled, and too lazy to work and pay Tax to help your own government, you eat from ANC cash gifts paid monthly to your wasted generation of men sitting at home 24 hours a day drinking Koeldrank.

Your country is nothing special, there are 1 million Nigerians in Britain and Ireland, and there are 10 million Nigerians all over the world in Europe and America, Asia, Africa, Australia. Nigeria has the second largest number of migrant doctors working overseas in this world after India. Many of us Nigerians now own businesses in America and Europe.

You can pretend you don't know thousands of South African students are studying medicine in tiny Cuba, is Cuba a paradise?

Don't think your country is our favourite destination, it is mostly the Nigerians who don't make it to America and Europe that come over to South Africa, you are NOT AND WILL NEVER BE our first choice of a place to live, we hear all your R.ape and M.urder stories in Nigerian newspapers, we will come to your crime paradise if USA/EU/UK does not give us visa, get it?

I never said my country is special...but am telling you that Nigerians are flocking to SA like flies...south Africans are studying medicine in Cuba not in Nigeria....you should know by now that majority of Nigerians in SA are staying in the country illegally therefore are contributing nothing except the crimes you mentioned...you are welcome in SA but if you come here with that mentality of playing a Yoruba vs igbo man game,don't cry foul when you get some panelbeatings....unfortunately for you clue less people who actulize dreams and fantasies,if it is about rape and murder in your country ,only your gods can attest to that because your leaders cannot record anything ...your men and women are been called all sorts of names all over the world ...home sweet home,are you a refugee or asylum seeker somewhere?your nation is good in making noise but in reality that nation is a huge empty tin..

The call, NOT cry of Nigeria for power supply investment NOT aasistance (It is not free gift or grant) was to the whole world including India, the biggest response is from Canada, Manitoba Hydro Power if building new electricity power transmission infrastructure for 170 million, Skypower Canada is building Solar Power plant worth $5 Bilion and one of the largest in the world, for Nigeria, that is the photo I posted on page 971 yesterday.

I don't see South Africa in the picture of in the news investing anything near the Canadians.

Yeah... that says nothing about how its better than the MRR-3D NG.

You also said:

So you also dont know anything about your OPV apart from what is said on the internet... because "The Chinese have NOT sent any detailed technical specifications to your personal email"

I guess you would like TV, since the TV doesnt make you look a fool... like i do cool

You are the fool dude, let me show you .....

In your country South Africa, your 15 year old technology out-dated Navy Vavour frigates have NO SINGLE solid state radar in this world, only Nigerian navy stealth OPVs have such radar in Africa, even Egypt does not have it.

The Nigerian F91 radar is called SharpEye™, the South African radar is "Dull.Eye"

New 2013 world navy/marine technology no longer used the obsolete magentron technology in your Valour frigates, the world has moved to coherent transmission technology and that means a new age of navy radar has emerged and Nigeria has arrived there already.

Nigerian OPV radar has duty output of 10% while South African Valour frigate radar has duty of less than 0.05% and is a much weaker, obsolete and far inferior radar.

The Nigerian warship will detect the smallest and fastest missile that is skimming/hugging sea water surface, and the CIWS is switched to automatic mode to defend the ship and des.troy the enemy missile.

"SharpEye™ is a radical and innovative departure from current marine navigation radar technology in that it has no magnetron and uses a coherent transmission, which means that SharpEye™ is able to separate targets from clutter due to their differing radial velocity components. This extra dimension gives a significant performance advantage in detecting small targets in clutter resulting in safer ship operations.

SharpEye™ uses a solid-state power amplifier has a peak output power of just 170W and a duty of 10%. This contrasts with conventional magnetron based marine navigation radar systems, which have a 30kW output and duty typically less than 0.05%.

SharpEye™ transmits relatively long pulses in order to illuminate targets with sufficient energy for detection.

The graphs in the weblink compare the performance of conventional magnetron radar with that of SharpEye™, the performance advantage can be clearly seen. With no magnetron problems and now exceptional performance, SharpEye™ has to be the world’s best radar."


Nigerian OPV has the best radar in the world, South African Valour warships are now obsolete...fool grin grin

1. Your CIWS does not have the correct ammunition to engage missiles

3. No datalink means no network-centric engagement of missiles... so multiple guns on different ships will engage the same missile and ignore others... this means death

lol, its Navigation Radar

Nigerian OPV has the best radar in the world,

The most advanced warship in the world, The Arleigh Burke class, uses the AN/SPY-1 3D. Which uses a the same basic design as the MRR-3D NG.

So, in future, dont just post the manufacturers advertisement and expect it to impress us. Give us facts and figures from analysts.

True Nigeria is an undisputed giant of poverty in Africa.These statistic speak for themselves:

Poverty has risen in Nigeria, with almost 100 million people living on less than a $1 (£0.63) a day, despite economic growth, statistics have shown.

The National Bureau of Statistics said 60.9% of Nigerians in 2010 were living in "absolute poverty" - this figure had risen from 54.7% in 2004.

The bureau predicted this rising trend was likely to continue.

Nigeria is Africa's biggest oil producer but the sector has been tainted by accusations of corruption.

https://www.google.co.za/url?sa=t&rct=j&q=&esrc=s&source=web&cd=4&cad=rja&uact=8&ved=0CDcQFjAD&url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.bbc.com%2Fnews%2Fworld-africa-17015873&ei=dwjNU7OxF9LA7AaV_ICYBw&usg=AFQjCNHHfCqRzNuPAZo0yb3x_iwiBw9SUw

Nigeria has the highest number of citizens without electricity in Africa, a new report has revealed. Africa has 55 countries/nations recognised by the United Nations (UN) and African Union (AU).
The report, a joint venture by sustainable energy charity Ashden, also shows that Nigeria has about 10 per cent of the total 1.3 billion people in Africa who are without electricity.
The report revealed how donors, investors, technical experts and policy makers can improve support to enterprises providing access to clean energy in the developing world.
“Some 1.3 billion people live without electricity, while nearly three billion people cook on open fires or inefficient cook stoves, damaging health and keeping people trapped in poverty,” the report says.
Just recently, Minister of Power, Professor Chinedu Nebo, said that 120 million Nigerians, representing 60 per cent of the 170 million populations, are yet to be connected to the national grid.

Over 112 million people don't have access to adequate sanitation in Nigeria, two thirds of the population.

Let me tell you in the simplest terms possible: Post an objective source that shows that what you are claiming is true. With facts and figures, not general terms like "most only get 0.5%" or something to that order.

Do you understand the word objective?

I ask you again: PROVE IT

You also dont seem to realize that its primarily a NAVIGATIONAL RADAR

You said it was the most advanced in the world, and that all navies use it... yet the most advanced and expensive warship in the world uses the same basic design as the valour class.

As usual you have no meaningful retort.

When soldiers look too fine, fresh, and neat in fancy uniform, we should be asking if they are in battle field or enjoying life at home.
The best combat soldiers you ever had in South Africa was the SADF in apartheid era, and the one in real war zone look like the photo below.

Those arent regular soldiers... they are psuedo operatives (the first pic is Rhodesian SF btw) you mindless troglodyte.

Those are Special Forces who dressed like that to confuse the local population and the terrorists - they pretended to be terrorists and lured the real 'terr's out into the open so that fire-force or QRF units could hunt them down.

Seriously, dont tell me you dont know what psuedo ops are. And please dont tell me you are trying to tell me all SADF were SOF/SF

Here are pics battle hardened regular SADF infantrymen

- note they are in combat
- note they still have neat and orderly uniforms
- note they are better equipped than modern day NA infantrymen

This is getting boring, make better arguments, yours are too easy to debunk.

- lol you cannot even tell South African and Rhodesian soldiers apart cheesy cheesy cheesy cheesy

We Nigerians are very proud of the fact that our nation is a 100% black nation built 100% black leadership.
South Africa's greatness was built by 100% Boer-White leadership of 5 million white-men apartheid wicked masters at the expense of a wasted black generation of 40 million mentally enslaved black people, most of whom will not achieve anything in their lives till they die.
See photos of those who enslaved you blacks to get a chance to build ALL the achievements you are foolishly 'proud of'....
.
Now would you look at that, the pot calling kettle black. I bet 100% black Nigerians discovered oil, 100% black Nigerians own all those oil and gas resources, those top companies. When it comes to slavery my friend, no African country is free. Neo-colonialists are the masters of all economies Africa has to offer. So before you call others slaves, check your country's status first. With South Africa being with Brics, means that we are Neo-colonailists to Nigeria. So, who's the slave now?

NAAIGAYRIA OIL DRYING OUT IN 2040 cry cry cry cry cry cry cry cry cry After that the OVERPOPULATED SH8THOLE WILL HAVE NOTHING TO SHOW.


According to the reliable estimates from the World Bank and from the other western financial institutions today, Nigeria has made close to $700 billion from her oil sales alone as her state revenues since this oil was found in the commercial quantity in the 1960s.FOUNDERS=WHITE BRITISH COLONISERS

[b]These international financial bodies also reported that between $300 to $400 billion from this oil revenue had been stolen or siphoned away by the past and the current Nigeria's leaders and their highly corrupt top government officials into their own private foreign bank accounts in the western world, the Middle East and the Caribbean. After almost 50 years of this continuous oil production and oil exportation in Nigeria, it is so sad today to note that there is nothing physically present or tangible on the ground today in Nigeria to show for this enormous oil revenue that had come for the last 50 years into the coffers of the Nigeria's successive governments.

Today in 2013, Nigeria can be described simply as a failing nation in all ramifications. The poverty rate has increased from below 20% when this oil was first discovered to over 80% today in the midst of this enormous oil wealth. The unemployment rate in Nigeria is now about 23%. Millions of Nigeria's workers in both the private and the public sectors of the economy are still earning poverty wages. The nation's infrastructures are so old, inadequate and over stressed. Nigeria's national health care system is still at the Stone Age level today in 2013. Our nation's educational structure is still at a century away and behind the rest of the world. The nation's social services in 2013 cannot meet the growing needs of the Nigeria's citizens and they are nothing to write home about today. The nation's population is left uncontrolled and it is projected to hit 300 million persons in 2050 at the current annual growth rate of about 3.2%. The value of the Nigeria's national currency the Naira is depreciating yearly, rapidly growing inflation controls the national economy and the standards of living of the ordinary Nigerians are falling yearly. Terrorism and genocide by Boko Haram, insecurity of life and properties, lawlessness, brutalities, religious uprisings, kidnappings for ransoms, hostage takings, public lynchings of petty thieves, political murders, sectarian killings, armed robberies and arsons are the order of the day in Nigeria today in the ocean of this enormous oil wealth in 2013.[/b]

[b]Boko Haram insurgents kill 100 people as they take control of Nigerian town
Survivors say group fired RPGs, threw bombs into homes and gunned down people trying to escape the ensuing fires

Boko Haram extremists have killed more than 100 people and hoisted their black and white flag over a north-eastern town left undefended by Nigeria's military, according to a civil defence spokesman and a human rights advocate.

Hundreds of people in another north-eastern area, Askira Uba, are fleeing after receiving letters from the Boko Haram threatening to attack and take over their villages, Abbas Gava, a spokesman for the Nigerian Vigilante Group said.

"Nine major villages are on the run," he said.

Survivors said on Saturday that the insurgents had attacked the town of Damboa before dawn on Friday, firing rocket-propelled grenades, throwing homemade bombs into homes and gunning down people as they tried to escape the ensuing fires. Most of the town had burned down, they said.

A human rights advocate said Boko Haram had struck again as people were trying to bury their dead, and that the toll was probably much higher than 100. He spoke on condition of anonymity because he is not authorised to speak to reporters.

The only defence came from vigilantes armed with clubs and homemade rifles, Gava said.

The town had been under siege for two weeks, since Boko Haram dislodged soldiers from a new tank battalion camp on its outskirts.

The defence ministry claimed to have repelled the attack and killed at least 50 insurgents for the loss of six soldiers, including the commanding officer, but locals said many soldiers had been killed and that the military had been driven from the base. They said in the past week the extremists have twice ambushed military convoys trying to reach the base.

The militants cut off access to the town on Monday, when they blew up a bridge to the south of it. Damboa is on the main road south from Maiduguri, the Borno state capital, and at a strategic crossroads for farmers bringing their produce to market.

Hundreds of thousands of farmers have been driven from their land by the five-year-old insurgency, and officials have been warning of imminent food shortages.

Boko Haram has attracted international condemnation for the abduction of more than 200 schoolgirls who have been held in captivity for three months.

The insurgents have increased the number and ferocity of their attacks this year, particularly in their north-eastern stronghold, and they also have detonated bombs as far away as Lagos, the commercial capital in the south-west.

Human Rights Watch published a report this week which said Boko Haram had killed more than 2,000 civilians in an estimated 95 attacks during the first half of 2014. That compares with an estimated 3,600 people killed in the first four years of the insurgency.

Boko Haram wants to enforce an Islamic state in Nigeria, though half the country's population of 170 million is Christian.

City under siege
Deadliest phase
Failed fight back
Who are Boko Haram?

Nigeria's militant Islamists are in control of the key town of Damboa in north-eastern Nigeria, a local vigilante leader has told the BBC.

The vigilante force defending the town fled on Sunday, and Islamist group Boko Haram's black flag is now flying over Damboa, he said.

At least 40 people were killed when Boko Haram attacked Damboa on Friday, the vigilante leader added.

The group has been fighting since 2009 to create an Islamic state in Nigeria.

In April, it sparked international outrage by abducting more than 200 girls from their boarding school in Chibok, in Borno state, like Damboa.
