No! I won't let it go!. So. Can't I talk about the very problem in your society that is affecting Nigerians and other African immigrants? Please, I disagree with your view on that. Until something meaningful is done about it I won't stop discussing about it here and it will keep repeating itself.

What has shocked me are Nigerian's tribalism and Zenophobia towards other africans. Unfortunately when it comes to Nigerians in SA the bad apples aren't the minority.

that's not the point here is you are not doing anything to tackle it , you cross your arms. And say well , they are "African" heard SA don't consider themselves as African, no at least treat people well and provide for their security regardless their origins.

For a country which claims to b civilized, I'm astonished ...SA is not different from any remote villages or backward country , how in 2013 someone can justify the killings of innocent and even guilty people, don't you have a judiciary system in your country?

I was not justifying violence or harassment, I was countering the arguments I see in these discussions. Alot of people like to claim that innocent Nigerians are victimized in SA, but the fact is innocent south Africans especially young girls are the ones being victimized by Nigerian thugs. People who attack foreigners are arrested and dealt with, during the 2008 xenophobic violence 1200 people were arrested.

Domain not found,
If they are arrested and prosecuted it is fine, but your gov should also tell your pop that foreigners are not the one responsible of their problems.

Btw this has nothing to do with Nigeria/ Nigerian, I really don't think your people discriminate when they attack or can spot the difference between a Nigerian and a Ghanaian

You can go on YouTube or Google to see all the anti-xenophobia campaigns from SA. There were anti-xenophobia ads on tv and radio every day after the 2008 violence and still continuing this day.. Many tv series have plots that campaign against xenophobia, go on the net and research all that is being done to fight xenophobia. But being critical of foreigners doesn't make one xenophobic.

If people were randomly attacked as your comment suggest...how come Nigerians, especially those on NL who have never been to SA are the only people complaining? Why are Zimbos/Mozs and millions of other foreigners not saying a thing?

And your wrong, any sane person can tell the difference between a Nigerian & Ghanaian!

Another thing, since me and my people are such monsters wouldn't it be best if everyone stayed in their OWN countries instead!?!?

What do you mean by that? There are instances of other nationals frequenting the forum to air their grievances over SA street attacks.

And how do you know they have never been to SA, beside do you have to go in Russia to know that they are racist?

Mam stop fooling yourself:

1) the people you listed are complaining, and if most of them do not speak out or in public it is because they are afraid and are in SA to make money. E.g despite the racism African still go in Russia etc

2) you can't make the difference between a Nigeria and a Ghanaian don't make me embarrass u, BTW it was just an example, the point was they are not looking for Nigerian but foreigners..and I really don't know what you mean by any sane person.


I don't recall calling someone here a monster, I hope you won't complain when the same word you use to describe you will b used by someone else, and your advice migrations exist since the creation of the world..and i really hope you will never have to leave your country .

The point is not whether people can tell the differencr between a Nigerian and a Ghanain, but that foreigners who are mostly Nigerians victimize Alot of South Africa and shout xenophobia when they're get into trouble. You can do Google search you'll find Alot of Nigerian criminal activity in SA than xenophobic attacks from SA. So if it's fine to brandished South Africans as xenophobic from the acts of the few, than calling Nigerian criminals shouldn't be a problem.Ghanains have a good reputation here for a reason, go do a Google search on xenophobia against Ghanains in SA, I found this link www.nairaland.com/720520/45-ghanaians-deported-nigeria/4

I know b'cos they've said so many times when asked!!

1. If thats the case, then they should suck it up! Its not like they were invited.

2. If you can't tell the difference...well your problem, it doesn't mean I can't!

3. Please don't play dumb with me! By suggesting that people are being attacked for no apparent reason... would make those attacking them what exactly?...Duh, monsters!!

Monster: one who deviates from normal or acceptable behavior or character

Am tired of everyone expecting to be respected and liked by Saffas! I can only give love to those who give me love!!

I think many people in SA are not normal. From xenophobic attacks(which is mental case/state as such) to street crimes(both the citizens and police). Seriously, I think something is wrong with their mental faculties.

I don't understand your fixation with Ghanaian , it was an example, next you will tell you can tell a gambian from a Senegalese or an Ivorian from a Guinean etc.....which is false, and you are only lying to yourself.
Anyway I'm not in the mood to go back and forth,if you fail to understand that there's no justification to xenophobic attacks , that means it is something you guys enjoy.

Like I said, I hope you will never have to leave your country.

Peace.
