Nah Nigeria has nothing to learn from this trash! Thank God we are Nigeria, we’ll deal with our own set of problems without the savagery and inhumane behaviour displayed by the South African masses

Lol... we won’t deal with anything. Shut up and stop disgracing us the more please.

You just said it all. Nigerians are just jealous that a former president of their kind can be sent to jail. This has exposed the average mindset of Nigerians to always side with their oppressors/corrupt politicians
"I no know who cook this juju for us"

You SA-tards are so funny. Tell me is there any of your ex president that has been to jail before? Nigga this is the VERY first time your ex president is being sent to jail, don't make it look like you guys have been sending your previous corrupt ass president to jail before.
We will never be jealous of lazy people like you sorry.

First time doesn't immediately make them corruption free. There are so many countries in Europe that have done it consecutive times, they've never claimed to be the giant of the world or mock Africans for not being like them.
Apparently, the SA-tards think they're now the giant of Africa for doing it for the very first time. The idiot even said we're jealous of them because of it, can you imagine grin what a clown undecided

Who says having strong institutions imply corrupt free?.
Please read and understand. The political will to prosecute untouchables is the difference between them and us. And south Africa has demonstrated that.

South Africa has stronger and credible institutions that act as check and balance to curb the excesses of ANY corrupt leader. You’ve seen it play out with Jacob Zuma being arrested for disobeying court order, now that’s a country that law works, and no matter how highly placed you are in the society, once you break the law. You must face the consequences.

Mate learn to read. The kid clearly said "ANY" currupt will be arrested and brought to book. Zuma is the very first president that has been imprisoned. He said "ANY", are you now telling me that there haven't been any corrupt politician before in your country? If yeah then obviously the dude doesn't know what he's doing because there hasn't been any ex president that has been brought to book, Zuma is first. He should say "any corrupt politician or ex president" when it has been done consecutive times. This is the first time a thing like this is happening, you folks make it sound like you've been prosecuting your corrupt politicians before in the past. Also, I'm not saying it isn't a good thing, it is and we're definitely gonna learn from it. But it isn't something to brag about or say people are jealous of you because of it. Also a thing like that doesn't make one the giants of a continent

Average SA-tard thinking. Roads, insurance, electricity are developments and they dont make a country the giant of a continent. There are so many countries that are a lot more developed than UK, USA, France but still, they are nowhere near them when it comes to being the best in a continent or Europe . Countries like Norway, Sweden, Lithuania etc are more developed than UK but can you really compare them? Sit down kid. Nigeria is and will always be above you lots.

It is not inferiority complex. Africa will develop if we are humble to accept that Caucasians and asians are better than us and willing to learn from them. We need strong institutions in Africa. I am happy south Africa is setting the pace. Granted , judiciary and police were in hurry to effect Zuma arrest. Security agents did not see it coming. Wrong intelligence!! But South Africa has passed a message to the world that nobody is greater than the Constitution. If this happens in Nigeria, Government will organize counter protests against pro-zuma protesters . Nigeria has weak institutions. Police seargant is even above the law. Any nurtw leader is above the law. Terrorist is above the law but agitators for self - determination are criminals . If we have strong institutions , we would not have like of Buhari as President- infamous Sharia and blood statements come to mind.
If you believe an average whiteman is better than you because you are African, that's your thing not mine.

And I don't know what institutions you are talking about if rioters can just loot a place dry because a thief was jailed. The same Zuma who was known as a thief and a rapist before the 2009 election only for him to be acquited in a case that divided his own party. Institutions indeed.
We will learn from saner people not a place where xenophobia is seen as normal.

200+ people have been killed in rioting so far, and over 3,000 injured, with thousands of shops looted, malls burnt down, and business establishments ransacked, burnt and looted across the country, with police nowhere to be seen, and THIS proves South Africa is the ''greatest country in Africa''??

I think you're a complete idiot.

Of course it wasn't your business that was destroyed by violent mobs. Neither was it your bother or sister that was killed by mobs, which is why your head dreams up rubbish to post on Nairaland.

You are not getting it. Society defines who you are . Caucasians, Asians and likes used to be like us.

If you have the fact bang it or forever bang the table... al what he/she said is nothing but the truth.... riot and looting are bound to happen in a developed country.. countries like germany, usa and france have had their own... But it doesnt stop the law from taken its effect.... Nigerian law doesnt apply to the elite... Take it or leave it, for now southAfrica is the giant of black continent, until Nigeria put its house together...

Fantastically corrupt former President Jacob Zuma thought by instigating his supporters to cause havoc he will be released from his jail cell.

South Africa will emerge stronger from this and send a message to all citizens no one is above the law including the number one citizen.

South Africans united to irrespective of race-white,black,indian and asian to clean up the mess left by the Zuma mob who wanted corruption institutionalized through thuggery and brute force and create a nation where some people are above the law.

This is a lesson to Nigeria that has produced some of the most corrupt political leaders to ever walk the planet; that corruption can be fought holistically if you have strong state institutions.

Nigeria has a better economy. Nigeria beat you guys hands down when it comes to having artists who are international and internationally recognized.

You don't expect people from other countries to use your roads and electricity for you, do you? No. But whatever yoour country is known for by by every other country makes you more recognized and the giant hence of the continents. When someone here's of Nigeria, he easily thinks of their music, artists, movies etc because they've heard of them countless times. If the average USA citizen hears of South Africa, there's nothing good he can think of that's from your country. Maybe he would've praised the constant electricity you guys do have, but he's never been there before. Also, developments and other things do matter but they only matter a little.
