THE world watched in horror at the violence in South Africa, targeted at foreigners in several cities. Gangs of weapons-wielding youth descended on hapless foreigners, killing, maiming and destroying their property. Shops and restaurants were looted, and in most cases, these went on with law enforcement agents seeming to derive some pleasure from watching.

Many trace the violence to a statement credited to the Zulu King, Goodwill Zwelithini, who called on foreigners, who he blamed for the high crime rates and unemployment among South Africans, to leave.

Nigerians were a sizeable proportion of the attacked foreigners. No death was reported, but they suffered great losses – their businesses were targets. Many were injured. These attacks have been regular since 2008, the only difference each time is the increasing intensity.

They are unofficial, but the official South African attitude to Nigerians is not much different. The repatriation of 124 Nigerians in March 2012 over alleged forged immunisation cards is one. There were sufficient grounds to believe that the Nigerians suffered that fate because they travelled on a Nigerian carrier. Only months ago, South Africa botched an arms deal with Nigeria and made headlines out of it.

Nigerians are angry about the vehemence and barbarity with which South Africans attack fellow Africans even when it is obvious that there is live television coverage of the attacks. If anything, the

unwillingness of the police to act, assures the attackers that they would be immune from punishment. We recall Nigerian contributions, officially, and individually to the liberation of South Africa, Mozambique, Zimbabwe, and Angola. The contributions were diplomatic, financial and extended to scholarships and training for their students.

Since the collapse of apartheid, South Africa businesses have flourished in Nigeria, exploiting Nigerians, paying minimal wages, and repatriating hefty profits annually. Nigerians know these,

including humiliation they face when they apply for South African visas while nationals of countries that supported apartheid require no visa to enter South Africa.

Why are South Africans so hostile to Nigerians? We think it is in the interest of both countries to find out. The excuses about unemployment and crimes are speculations, especially when the menial jobs other Africans do would not appeal to South Africans and crime statistics do not support the crime claim.

No reason justifies the attacks. We commend the patience of Nigerians who protested, instead of attacking South African interests in Nigeria.

The Nigerian protesters warned both governments that time is running out for them to address the causes of the attacks. Our government should ensure South Africa pays adequate compensations for the losses. We would no longer sacrifice Nigerians for diplomacy. Let these attacks be the last.

I've discovered that some slow and shallow thinkers are not thinking smart at all and as such looking at my post as an impossibility. When I talked about a payback, I didn't mean going out to confront a mob. I meant laying ambush for the unlucky South African to walk in and be KILLED. Don't they know anyone whom they will attack? NOBODY HAS A MONOPOLY OF VIOLENCE. Just weak minds too dumb to strategize and too afraid to act. Well I have a full idea of what I mean so feel free to judge with your weak mind. And like I said, I wish I were in SA.
And u think ds ll solve the problem, or further complicate ish, then result in more killing. And that makes u no different from those who started t den. And moreover what gives u d beliv dat who u r tryna waylay ain't gonna b stronger than u, and eventually kill u. Anyways as always #JusSayin

They can't work but want to eat.
That is why all they do is prostitution and armed robbery
and drugs.
WHO research has shown that out of every 10 pregnant

May they perish in their disease.

They are the real reason the whites call blacks "monkeys"
[b]Even their stupíd president is in support of it [/b]and i don't
blame him when our own president just sits idle without
taking any measure to resolve or repatriate our citizens.
At this juncture, we should also be preparing to destroy
everything south Africans own in Nigeria too e.g Shoprite,
Mr Price, GoTv, DSTV, MTN, STANBIC BANK E.T.C
When the time is right, i will personally revenge.
100 modafúcking lives of South Africans to every 1

The topic sounded like there's a fresh attack on Nigerians leading to death... Vanguard is just too silly for stirring this up...what are they up to?

Thanks for observing this....I was wondering what is this topic about. I had to quickly check with media houses here in SA and I found nothing about fresh attacks....actually this whole episode is starting to evaporate.

We Nigerians should stop complaining. Our attitude is what has brought us to the position we're currently. Because we fought Apartheid for them doesn't mean we can go to their country & act like we're colonizing them again...doesn't mean we can go there & misbehave. Other countries are complaining about Nigeria as well...If someone complains about you you may be innocent but if everyone complains about you all d time then you need to check yourself...funny enough Nigeria is somehow d culprit in ds Xenophobia & we've succeeded in putting other African countries in trouble. A pity...

The funny thing is the police and authorities are watching and doing nothing, but if Nigerians fight back they would probably get arrested for attacking back. Shame.

Here in the UK I see many white south Africans have left the cou try working here and many in Australia as well leaving the country to the blacks who seem to be bent on destroying



Your firs statement about our government and police is not true. The president has been addressing this matter in parliament, tv interviews and actually engaging with the displaced foreigners personally. A rally was held at the Durban stadium on Monday....everybody who is authority spoke strongly against xenophobic attacks / killings.....therefore this nullifies your statement as hot air.

You also spoke about our police. Except for 1 or 2 cases....our police service personnel have worked very hard to maintain peace and order. Even the army, SANDF, has for the last 3days been involved in various places around Durban and Joburg. This also nullifies your assertion about our police as hot air.

For your own sake....do not believe everything the white people you will see loitering about in London, Toronto, Sydney etc badmouthing SA and all that...yes the country has got challenges but it still functions just so fine. The black government is trying their best....new roads being built, new powerplants, new universities, new railwaylines etc....the country has got challenges but functions just so fine...

In actual fact if the white people want to leave...they can just do so with great pleasure and stop badmouthing our country....we have got enough bad publicity already we dont need them adding to that....but you free if you want to believe them it's your choice.
