DONALD TRUMP'S XENOPHOBIC SPEECH HAS SET SOUTH AFRICA ON THE RAMPAGE!

If the America's "numero uno" had thought that his xenophobic-tainted inaugural speech would spread racism like a wild and untamed fire across the inhabited world, he would have cautioned his fiery patriotic zeal which had sent wrong signals of hatred among brethrens who are now at each other’s throat across the globe even though he contradicted himself when he eloquently quoted the Biblical Psalm 133:1, which solicited for UNITY towards the end of the 17-minute treatise! All across Africa: Libya, Syria, Turkey, Iraq, Iran, Afghanistan; Democratic Republic of Congo, Central African Republic (CAR); South Africa, Lesotho, Uganda, Kenya; several parts of Latin American and Asian nations, the Far East, North/South Korea, Israel, India/Pakistan; in Europe: France, Germany, Russia, etc, dissensions, coupled with threats of deploying and engaging one another with modern military arsenals including nuclear warfare, have intensified instead of abating, since the 20th January, 2017, speech, because each nation is now more determined to assert its sovereignty in the most selfish manner, over and above others! Incitement towards escalation of hostilities between world nations had become rife since this very controversial Donald Trump’s message! IT'S NOW EVERYBODY FOR HIMSELF - AND GOD FOR US ALL! HOW CAN ANY NATION NOW CLAIM A SELFISH NATIONAL UNITY, WHEN THE PUORPOSE OF GOD FOR HIS WORLD WAS A GLOBAL DISPERSION OF PEOPLE TO DWELL IN FREEDOM AND IN GLOBAL UNITY? In Genesis 11:1-9, the LORD broke up a clandestine and selfish unity of men in BABEL, "....scattered them abroad from thence upon the face of all the earth: and they left off to build the city"; and that proves that immigration is a DIVINE POLICY - NOT AMERICANS! MODERN AMERICANS MIGRATED AS A PEOPLE FROM BABEL AND THEREFORE CANNOT CLAIM SOLE OWNERSHIP OF THE GREAT AND "MOST POWERFUL" NATION IN THE WORLD! OTHER PEOPLES OF OTHER NATIONS WHO ALSO MIGRATED FROM BABEL, HAVE A STAKE IN THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA AND CANNOT THEREFORE BE DENIED LRGITIMATE RECIDENCY!

Some excerpts of inaugural address of Friday, 20th January, 2017, Washington, D.C. "For many decades, we’ve enriched foreign industry at the expense of American industry; Subsidized the armies of other countries while allowing for the very sad depletion of our military; We've defended other nations borders while refusing to defend our own; And spent trillions of dollars overseas while America's infrastructure has fallen into disrepair and decay.......We’ve made other countries rich while the wealth, strength, and confidence of our country has disappeared over the horizon. But that is the past. And now we are looking only to the future. We assembled here today are issuing a new decree to be heard in every city, in every foreign capital, and in every hall of power....."From this day forward, a new vision will govern our land. From this moment on, it’s going to be AMERICA FIRST. Every decision on trade, on taxes, on immigration, on foreign affairs, will be made to benefit American workers and American families. We must protect our borders from the ravages of other countries making our products, stealing our companies, and destroying our jobs. The Bible tells us, “how good and pleasant it is when God’s people live together in unity.” To the Republican Party's faithfuls, President Donald Trump's declaration of "AMERICA FIRST", i.e., that America would be restored to the Americans, portrayed him as a patriot, but to the immigrants who now face the threat of hatred, segregation and expulsion - whether they had "green cards" or approved entry visas or not - especially the unregistered/illegal immigrants, he is Klu Klux Klan (KKK), personified, a racial bigot, a villain and an addicted xenophobe!
On the 21st February, 2017, one of such immigrants who was caught in the net of America's law enforcement agents, had in the process of being deported, jumped off a bridge while being escorted across the border into Mexico and died! However, illegal immigrants in America have the solace of not being hounded to death by members of the larger host communities as it obtained in some very hostile countries in previous years of xenophobic attacks - especially in South Africa! Though, about Six States, challenged the authoritarian attitude and unilateral decision of the new President in respect of the TRAVEL BAN, the Attorney General refusal to enforce the order through the law courts and the Appeal Court's ruling on the matter favoured the opposition groups; he stubbornly believed that illegal immigrants had consistently short-changed Americans and deprived them of their INALIENNBLE RIGHTS/ legitimate livelihoods and MUST therefore give way for AMERICANS TO POSSESS THEIR POSSESSIONS! Instead of a blanket travel ban on those regarded as illegal immigrants, competent relevant immigration institutions/authorities of the CONFEDERATING INDEPENDENT STATES, should have been left to sort out their immigration challenges and seek the "Federal Might" assistance as they might require from time to time, ACCORDING TO THE LAW! In spite of the fact that diplomatic/economic relations between the Republics of Nigeria and South Africa (SA), was being midwifed to erase lopsidedness in favour of the latter, South Africans in Pretoria, descended on foreigners, especially Nigerians, on 18th February, 2017, in a reign of terror which resulted in burnt-down homes, workshops and properties, worth millions of US dollars! Nigerians have been victims of xenophobic attacks in South Africa in past years but in 2016 alone 26 of them were killed! SA has more business interests in Nigeria to make them tread very softly in matters regarding immigration and allow their institutions to sort issues of illegality instead of conniving with the local miscreants to destroy legitimate businesses of innocent immigrants under any guise!

A xenophobe usually sponsors incitement through hate speeches, exhibits dislike against foreigners, their cultures, customs and religion no matter how subtly or diplomatically the phobia was insinuated, especially now that most countries are experiencing economic recession in one form or the other and the unemployment rate in most developing nations are on two digits ratio! President of Nigeria Union in SA, Ikechukwu Anyene, reported that attacks began at about 4am and that five buildings with Nigerian businesses, including a CHURCH, were looted and burned by South Africans adding that, one of the five buildings, was a Nigerian mechanic garage with 28 cars under repairs, in which other vital documents were burned during the attack.

THE STORY OF APARTHEID: BLACK South Africans must definitely have short memories! Once upon a time, THEY WERE NOT A PEOPLE and virtually had no citizenship because their WHITE TASK MASTERS burdened them with an everlasting servitude, treated them worse than second class citizens and yoked them as SLAVES in their fatherland where they had no respite and no one to rescue them but successive NIGERIAN GOVERNMENT AND ITS PATRIOTIC CITIZENS! The story of Apartheid began in 1948 when the White-supremacist government of that dispensation introduced an inhuman and detestable policy of racial separation/discrimination purposely against the majority indigenous Blacks, who actually owned the land and successfully enslaved them until 1990, (42 consecutive and uninterrupted years of man's worst kind of wickedness against his brethren), when the MADIBA, President Nelson Mandela, who had been in the forefront of the emancipation of his great fatherland from colonial domination, was released from 27 years of prison incarceration and emerged through an overwhelming popular votes to become the first-ever Black SA President! Right from independence in 1960, successive Nigerian governments and its patriotic citizens condemned APARTHEID in all its ramifications and mobililized international support for a crusade against the obnoxious and very irratitating policy in which PETS OWNED BY WHITE SOUTH AFRICANS HAD SUPERIOR RIGHTS THAN THE BLACK CITIZENS! Under the policy, Blacks were forbidden to dwell in cities and urban centres with their White counterparts; they must not ride in the same public transportation with the whites, must never share public toilet facilities, schools, churches etc, with the Whites because they were regarded as slaves and very inferior to their masters and MUST ALWAYS PRESENT OFFICIALLY-APPROVED IDENTIFICATION CARDS for employment unlike the Whites! South Africans owe Nigerians an everlasting GRATITUDE!

In the recent upheavals, South Africans claim their actions were not xenophobic in nature but that their grievances were against alien drug cartels, organized prostitution, money launderers, etc, and that they have handed a memorandum to Home Affairs Department. The anti-immigrant march organisers, the 'Mamelodi Concerned Residents' refused to accept that the violence should be blamed on South Africans during the "Foreigner March" in Pretoria, on Friday Feb. 24th, 2017, which involved over 1.000 protesters. There had been attacks against foreigners across select sections of Johannesburg and Pretoria in recent weeks while foreigners homes and businesses, had been torched and looted in the guise of stopping alleged crimes committed by foreigners....... that they had prospered economically in SA through illicit gains while the indigenes were left high and dry however it us gratifying that no Nigerian has been killed in this fresh attacks according to the Minister of State for Foreign Affairs, Khadija Abba-Ibrahim. The Nigerian Commission in Pretoria is in constant touch with the Nigerian Union in SA, the Department of International Relations and Cooperation, DIRCO of SA, as well as the South African Police - all these agencies have confirmed that NO NIGERIAN LIFE WAS LOST! HAS President Jacob Zuma, really intervened? The answer is a capital NO! In spite of a short broadcast which had no bite, the SA vandals still went on a fresh rampage in Pretoria and its suburbs on the 23rd-25th February, 2017, prompting the fear that immigrants might be forced to defend themselves! But President Zuma was quick to fly to Nigeria in 2016 to plead for the reduction of a fine of $ 5.2 billion slammed on MTN for impropriety in business transactions by the Nigerian Communications Commission (NCC)!

IS COMPENSATION POSSIBLE? Yes, according to international best practice especially when damages were properly documented and authenticated with video footages, industrial professionals neutral reports of eye witnesses.

PROTESTS BY NANS IN NIGERIA ON FRIDAY 22ND FEBRUARY, 2017.
In spite of diplomatic efforts on the part of the Nigerian Government to the proffer solutions to the recurrent and very delicate national embarrassment, a National Association of Nigerian Students (NANS), protest group, marched to SA's giant communications service providers, MTN Nigeria Headquarters, and also to SA Embassy, both in Abuja and warned all SA's immigrants and their businesses to pack and go back to their country latest by Tuesday, 28th February, 2017, and that diplomatic ties be severed forthwith between the two major economic blocs in Black Africa! It is believed that SA has over 20 major multi-billion thriving business enterprises in Nigeria. During his lifetime, the first Black President of SA, Nelson Mandela condemned xenophobia in 1991 and declared. ..WE AFRICANS ARE ONE! ARE WE TRULY ONE GLOBALLY ACCORDING TO PRESIDENT DONALD TRUMP? We advise that Nigerian citizens should refrain from any form of reprisals as canvassed from various unguarded quarters - especially NANS which had been breathing fire and brimstones - to calm down, sheath their swords and allow the Federal Government of Nigeria to allow both diplomatic/political solutions prevail on this delicate matter. The blood of any Nigerian or South African should not be spilled over ephemeral and transient things of this nature. NEVER! The Word of God states that: “If the foundations be destroyed, what can the righteous do?”(PSA: 11:3, KJV).
