Inik:
I still stand on what i said earlier. In terms of population, arts and culture, sports, religion, entertainment etc Nigeria is ahead of south africa

andrewza:

Population? Yes but it not a advantiage. Far from it.

The availability of labour is high. This could turn to cheap labour due to the competition for jobs therefore leading to faster development due to decreased costs and higher production meaning a higher income.
Higher chance of skilled workers.
Business will have a very large market because of the high and wide variety of demand for goods.
The population will be paying tax. More people means more money for the government which then means that they can build hospitals and school etc.
In war situations the country with the larger population will have the upper hand.

Arts and culture? Never heard any thing about this from a nigerian side. Other than a few books I read in school.

Read up the contribution of Nigerian literature to Africa. Peter Abrahams your best known novelist was inspired by Nigerian writers

Sports? No maybe soccer but that is it. In every other aspect SA sport secien is bigger, better funded and better perfoming.

True but we are better at soccer. Cricket and rugby are not popular sports in africa

Relgion? Your 2 mian groups are trying to kill each other. How is that a good thing.

We have exported our brand of Christianity to South Africa, our mega churches are dominating the south african scene

Nolloy wood may make movies like you breed children. But that dose not mean much. SA make movies and tv serries for the internastiol market.

Nollywood is the third biggest movie industry in the world, nigerian movies sell like hot cake all around the world

Other than popuasltion nigeria has nothing on SA. And in a since that is all we want. South africas local market can not support the output of our industries. We need a large resnably wealthy market. AKA nigeria.

Your biggest exports to nigeria are Mtn and dstv. These companies make more money in nigeria than in the rest of the continent cos of our large population

andrewza:

Let see.
Nastionlized BP. That affected UK not SA

Boycot a sports event. Not really all that threaning

Provided some traing and supplys. Not much use since most ANC grunts where poorly equipmet and trained.

Once again in the big picture Nigeria did very littel.

sheyie2007: you're a racist white FVCk... Nobody sells their culture to those who invade a country and take her indigenes as slaves... SA is a joke... Until crime and corruption eats you up like termites.. Fingers crossed

andrewza:

Can you proof that I am racsit. Because if not keep still.

SA crime rates have been on a steady decrease. Where in nigeria crime statistics are not reported and entire villeges get raided by villges.

And nigeria is rated one of the worlds most corrupt countries.

Looking at this link Nigeria's high population should worry any Nigerian. http://www.reuters.com/

Nigeria's population is more quantify than quality.

Other than football (though the PSL is rated as the top league in Africa) Nigeria is not at SA level when it comes to sport, judging by last summer's olympic games South Africa is way ahead of Nigeria.

Arts and culture, South Africa has produced world class artist in Music ( jazz, opera, pop, raggea, classical, traditional, house etc I don't know any famous Nigerian musicians (not saying there aren't any. South Africa has produced world class theater productions that have won international awards. Nollywood may produce alot of movies, but it's more quantity than quality, South African movies, soapies, dramas have been nominated and won many international awards. We produce world class television series, many Hollywood movies are produced in South Africa.

South Africa has more than 100 companies operating in Nigeria.

sheyie2007:
Why are you crying?

zetdee:

Lol, I'm having a discussion, why don't you please educate me about Nigeria,

sheyie2007: you'd find all.the answers you need on this platform. Just look around. Your compatriots have posted the same thing countless times and they got their response...

zetdee:

I've followed alot of Nigeria vs South Africa discussions and Nigeria always comes second.

Ricky_Ross:

I don't know what you keep doing here. This is a Nigerian forum for Gods sake, the same Nigeria you hate so much, please leave this place for us.

Besides, when listing any of SA achievements remove the white supremacists, the whites are Europeans and they made SA a success. Till date, you are regarded as a second class citizen in your own country. The land originally belong to the blacks, but you guys are stupidd enough to allow whites take over everything. That is why Mugabe is my hero till tomorrow. In your own country, the whites dictates what happens, the entire land belongs to the white man, the technology etc. Can you just mention 10 outstanding black contribution to South Africa apart from HIV/AIDS, Homosexuality, drug running, Xenophobia etc? I dont even know why people respond to ignorant people like you. Take your senselessness to South African forum. Thank you very much
