I dont want anyone to feel like I'm intentionally directing them to fake email address, so they can be scammed.. but if you feel you need that very address which responded to me, here it is

Bros thank you. You are nice and kind.

Can you provide the link to the data and let's see. Sometimes we need to analyse data critically before making conclusions. There are many foreign companies in South Africa and that's an advantage. Also SA has foreign companies more than any country in Africa. The white sees the place as a friendly place for their investments. And it's also not new that SA has white pple more than any country in Africa and the white dominates their economy. So the statistics might feature more of those white companies in the statistics you saw.
Even if we are to look at it critically how many companies are owned by indigenous black South Africans? How many multi billion dollar companies are owned by the blacks there? The MTN, Shoprite, DSTV and co we talk as SA great companies in Africa are they owned by indigenous black South Africans?
When you talk about companies owned by blacks. I mean indigenous black... no country has it more than Nigeria.
In Nigeria from Dangote Groups to Glo Telecom to Interswitch to Paystack to Flutterwave to GTB to Sterling to Dantata Construction to Innoson Manufacturing and so on... These are big companies owned by Indigenous Black Nigerians. The recent Forbes list of Entrepreneurs in Africa had Nigerians topping the list.
We can take a cue from the list of Billionaires in Africa. Nigeria has 4 while SA has 5. And if you analyse that of SA very well you will see that only one of the 5 is a black SA... the rest are white guys.

If you want to be shocked at how many indigenous companies we have in Nigeria just check the competition thread of Igbo and Yoruba on who has more companies (or so can recall the title perfectly) here on Nairaland. You will be shocked by the list. And besides that's just two major tribes in Nigeria ooo. By the time we list that of Hausa and Niger Delta... it will be something else. What we need now is infrastructure. And this is where I respect SA the most. With good infrastructure no country comes close in Africa. We are still competing with SA because we have infrastructure problem. Let's get it right and watch the change.

SA is doing well but a country like Nigeria is on another level and we should not try to look down on ourselves especially when it comes to owning our thing and controlling our economy as an indigenous black people.

Thanks

You are busy comparing a 60 year old man with a 25 year old - literally. One has accumulated his wealth and ready to retire while the other has just finished varsity and beginning his empire.

I understand you but do you think the 60 year old is retiring? I dont think so. The 60 years old and the 25 years old can work together to help Africa. There is danger for the 25 years old if the 60 years old retires. A giant will always be giants.

The 25 year old would better cooperate with the 60 year old if he dropped his baseless condensending attitude towards other Africans. It doesn't go down well in SA and it's for that reason we don't get along. This giant of Africa thing has gone to your heads, but you have nothing to show for it.

When people invest in your country and you turn it around as if you are doing them a favour and they can't do without you, that will ruffle feathers.

When it comes to friendliness and reception, Nigeria has been very endearing to all African countries. We have helped many African countries including you South Africans but what we get back is hatred. Nigeria treats foreigners and foreign companies with dignity. If Nigeria wants to be selfish, we can send two of your giant companies out of Nigeria because we have alternatives. What do I mean? Nigeria could want to show her power and unfriendliness in the name of local content protection and send out MTN because we have Glo and 9 Mobile... both are Nigerian companies. We can send DSTV packing because we have TsTV. So it is you guys that needs to work on yourselves. See Nigeria is not just the giant of Africa in mouth we are truly influential in Africa. In the interview with one of our presidential aspirant (Sowore) last year or upper year... your interviewer on your station told him that the amount of money Nigerian brings to South Africa is higher than the amount SA takes to other African countries. You guys should understand how powerful and important Nigeria is. If not for some of our peculiar leadership/Fellowership problem... we can be competing with any African country...we will be competing with the likes of US and China. But dont worry by 2023 we will get it right.

Let me drop this attachment here I hope you can tell the black names since you know SA better than us South Africans. The PIC is the Public Investment Corporation. I hope you know what that means in terms of ownership.

And what do you think economic transformation, affirmative action and black economic empowerment (BEE) are all about? It's the forced inclusion of black ownership to break the stranglehold of apartheid monopolies in the SA economy. The same monopolies that are beginning to emerge in Nigeria, killing off local competition.

So because these companies were built during the apartheid times the democratic state is transforming them through black capital. Shows how little u know bout SA.

I see you intentionally overlooked all the black names I provided in the attachment I sent you. Did u google what the PIC is? You are hellbent on believing your own lies so u can sleep better at night with the false belief that black South Africans are slaves.

That's how I like my opponents - delusional and with their heads in the sand.

Will check this out later and DEFINITELY get back to you. But the presenter Tumelo Mothotoane was a young and inexperienced journo round this time. Not making excuses - haven't watched yet.

Something bad is happening to the FBN group

whouep:

FBN insurance that lloyd me to contribute some money for my kids education insurance without proper information about their scheme,after payment for 3 months,I was away for some months. I went for them to enquire about the money ,then the lady I meet in their office at marina started giving me stories that since I didn't continue my payment for straight 6 months,that the money has been fulfilled.that I bridged the payment agreement plan of the scheme.my 80k just go like that.fbn insurance na scam.

Your money is not gone. You can pay up to one year and qualify to receive all your money

edon21:

Well u are very stupid.
The right question should be " where would South African blacks be without Nigeria's help" idiot

Check the positions in that salam group and see if you can see any black as a director. Who's the owner?
Idiot.
Without Nigeria, would Mtn or dstv be existing?

Lol. Wonders! So Nigeria was involved in the inception of both DStv and MTN? The delusions are real fam

FBN insurance is not a scam and your money too is not lost. Just try and clear your backlog and your policy will be back in full force.

The person that attended to you did a very bad job but you're in a save hand.

try downloading the FBN insurance customer app from play store first to see where you stopped.

Wow, Nigeria and empty pride. This Sowore guy is on SA TV telling us boldly that he's our big brother. And this because we buy more from you, and just crude oil (very little sophistication) while we sell manufactured goods to you like cars and defense products. I was expecting you to make sense my brother but you failed dismissally. Instead you showed that u need us more than we need u, especially now with the oil price nosediving.

I'm really disappointed in you, seems you can't think beyond what politicians feed u. I really hope this Sowore guy becomes Nigerian president, he's an idiot. That's how we like our competition.

This is why AlJazeera says you guys are weak!

yes, everything remains the same

Hello All, does anyone have the email address for any senior Sanlam Life Nigeria staff that I can escalate a matter to? They are refusing to respond to a mail I sent to their general support email

Coldie:
Good at least we have backup in case south Africa tries a xenophobia

Back up for what?

baby124:

Nobody is taking money from your overhyped country. Instead they are here to make money like every other foreigner here. South Africa is also always in Nigeria seeking relationships.

My friend kindly go back to school and learn how economics works.
You should be celebrating now that sanlam is invested lot of money in Nigeria.
Nigeria insurance industry will develop and many Nigerians will get jobs.
Nigerian government is always asking for investors and sanlam responded.
FYI, sanlam is the biggest insurance company in Africa.
