Who is a nigerian who is suffering? Nigerians themselves are creating a bad image, its not the south africans who are creating a bad image for the Nigerians. Those who are suffering are just finding themselves in the wrong side of the law. Nigerians are not even the majority of foreigners in SA. The majority for sure are people from Zimbabwe, then comes Mozambique, DRC, Malawi, Sudan, Somalia. There is too many people from each of these countries more than Nigerians. nigerians are just there as a small number.

Bullshit. What a country!!! Negotiating for government officials.
