So why are they mostly targeting Nigerians only? Nigerians must be a special breed from the rest.

Hian!

How are they contributing the most headache? are Nigerians the only people that carry drugs,most if not every country has people that are into drugs.Did you not watch documentary where they should shops owned by Nigerians being looted nd burnt?.
For me,the primary reason for this is envy because Nigerians are very aggressive when it comes to business because they have families to send back money.

N.B. Other foreigners are well into crimes compared to nigerians.The only reason why crime in Nigeria is pronounced is because of our media,crime sells their newspapers.Another reason is because of tribalism everyone wanting to pull each other down thereby making it pronounced.Are Nigerians into crime more than Mexicans and Brazilians?

This is not surprising, I intentionally don't comment much on this incident due to the general level of reasoning I see on this forum

Nigerians are the minority in terms of foreign immigrant population in SA for crimes.

A poster asked above why we are in the headlines and it surprises me! is it that the person doesn't understand the concept of envy?

The regular young man in Mzanzi is lazy, gives into the cull of hard drugs, derives pleasure in.raping under aged High school girls and when his wife returns home from work tired and exhausted then confronts him with the information the neighbors gave her that he brought a teenager into their home while she was at work he proceeds to beat her up.

Now then moves in the Nigerian trader who came armed.with determination to hustle hard and repay the money used to send him there, he has no time for trivialities but Hawks his gala and coke on the streets there..

Mind you mzanzi youth see such jobs as far below them, they believe they have earned the right to a good life for their parents suffering apartheid... They have a serious entitlement complex

But they watch the Nigerian hustle everyday leaving his house at 6am to catch the early morning train out to sell gala and coke in CBD joburg to workers

After six months same nigerian trader rents a shop and starts selling medicines in a chemist and he is getting more money the typical mzanzi young man is infuriated and upset as his wife he beats up regularly is comparing him to the Nigerian ..and this annoys him!

To cut a long story short the Nigerians hustle spirit holds a mirror up to the SA youth faces and they don't like what they see, hence they resort to the age old primial instinct which says what they don't understand they fear and how do weaklings respond to fear ? They mob attack and inflict bodily harm

Nigerians aren't a major concern for crime in SA as they are just loud and more determined hustlers

The typical Mzanzi youth is local , uninspired and a masochist

Cheers

You have said it all, most guys that comments on top are either ignorant of what is really happening on ground or choosed to be sentimental.
Zimbabwe and other southern african countries are the most persecuted in SouthAfrica.
Nigerians are popular there because of flamboyant lifestyle of some of them and many do drugs too. Some even do drugs and still own legit businesses to cover up.

Just like Nigerians, there are lot of Zimbabweans in jails too. The Zimbabweans even do drugs more than Nigerians.

The whites in SouthAfrica came during colonial rule and due to tourism, they forsee these voilence so they mostly live together in planned highbrow areas, segregating themselves from blacks. They hardly live in slumps and legitimately move around with guns.
