Timoleon:They won't leave. It is owned by white South Africans who make more profit in Nigeria than they do in South Africa. And the whites don't give two fucvk about the Savage blacks. They would move their headquarters to Nigeria before the expiration of the ultimatum and your economy would be buried. MTN has already registered in the Nigerian stock exchange. |

Back in 19th century, Karl Marx claimed that religion and nationalism was being used to distract the masses from the fact that they were being oppressed under capitalism. Mere distractions to keep the masses from undermining the power of the elites.http://ndpra.home.blog |

mediclife1987: Google it. Presently stands at 29%. An unemployment rate at 10% is quite high and means it's hard to find a job. So 29% is very high. Nigeria's 24%. Italy is around 10%. Thats why Immigrants there are seeing pepper.Thailand is 1% which is probably the lowest in the world. |

SmartyPants:You are desperately trying to downplay the significance (no matter how little) of Nigeria taking action against South Africa. You are probably amongst the lots who think Nigeria is a COMPLETE sh1thole, unfortunately Business peeps know different 1. MTN Nigeria was accused by the CBN of wrongly repatriating about $8.1 billion out of the country. Even for America, that money is significant. The South African Reserve Bank posited that the dispute with the CBN, posed risks on South African financial system. So you are wrong to think that it is insignificant; https://www.pulse.ng/bi/finance/finance-south-africas-economy-at-risk-over-mtn-nigeria-dollar101-billion-dispute/57g518x 2. South Africa will drag Nigeria to court? Lol...Just like they dragged us to court when MTN was slammed with fines right? They are already paying the fine. They have reportedly payed 330 billion naira of the fine. So your post holds no water. If they are slammed with another fine, they have no option, than to pay. 3. South Africa will take action against Nigerians living in their country...Are you remotely joking? What could be worse than what is currently happening? Or what other action, probably line Nigerians up in the streets and gun them down? Or ban Nigerians from going to South Africa? What could be worse than loosing human lives and properties in South Africa? 4. MTN can NEVER exit the Nigerian market. Take that to the bank. Nigeria is their biggest cash cow. MTN Nigeria led the market share growth with 12.2% growth in the first half of the year, more than any other country they operate in, including South Africa (3.3%). They have more than 55 million subscribers in Nigeria, 20 million more than the subscriber base in South Africa. 5. Global investors affected? Nope.This is simply Nigeria vs South Africa, not Nigeria vs the world, with Nigeria only taking reciprocate action against the inhumanity meted out on its citizens by the host nation, South Africa. Investors are not dumb. They understand. Nigeria still has Africa's biggest GDP. Our solid 200 million population cannot be ignored by investors, it's our strength. Even with all the supposed insecurities in our Nation, tech firms are raking in record amounts of staggering investments. 1 Like |

urahara: I don't know about chronic but unemployment rate is very low. I don't even understand why because the economy isn't growing very fast. it once did though. what's even interesting is that women are an active part of the Labour. The unemployment only considers those willing to work It excludes those unwilling to work such housewives. |
Re: Burning, Looting Of Nigerian Shops In South Africa: FG Takes Definitive Measures by grandstar(m): 10:58am On Sep 03, 2019 |
urahara: You're very correct. Actually, a 1% rate unemployment rate will imply that |

grandstar: They said it's because many if the employed are in the informal sector.About 60 percent of total employment. |

philip0906: I may agree with you over point 1 but on there rest: Re 2: 2. South Africa will drag Nigeria to court? Lol...Just like they dragged us to court when MTN was slammed with fines right? They are already paying the fine. They have reportedly payed 330 billion naira of the fine. So your post holds no water. If they are slammed with another fine, they have no option, than to pay. That was a justifiable cause. South Africa would never have won that case. Slapping punishments on MTN and others for no reason is a violation of international law. Re 3. 3. South Africa will take action against Nigerians living in their country...Are you remotely joking? What could be worse than what is currently happening? Or what other action, probably line Nigerians up in the streets and gun them down? Or ban Nigerians from going to South Africa? What could be worse than loosing human lives and properties in South Africa? There is a clear distinction between South African citizens committing crimes against Nigerian citizens, and a South African state policy of punishing Nigerian businesses. I was clearly referring to the latter. Despite the regular outbursts of xenophobia, Nigerians remain that country doing business becasue the business environment is still conducive. That would change if the South African state implements an aggressive, reciprocal policy towards Nigerians. Re 4: 4. MTN can NEVER exit the Nigerian market. Take that to the bank. Nigeria is their biggest cash cow. MTN Nigeria led the market share growth with 12.2% growth in the first half of the year, more than any other country they operate in, including South Africa (3.3%). They have more than 55 million subscribers in Nigeria, 20 million more than the subscriber base in South Africa. We are dealing with a big picture of cause and effect. If Nigeria punishes MTN then how will Nigeria continue to be a cash cow for them? It is one of two things: a. Nigeria punishes MTN to a significant enough effect that the company is troubled. This will only be the case if the company stops making profit. If that happens the company has no incentive to remain in the Nigerian market. b. Nigeria punishes MTN but not enough to block their profits. The company itself may be bothered but not to a scale to warrant the SA government taking action. Re 5. 5. Global investors affected? Nope.This is simply Nigeria vs South Africa, not Nigeria vs the world, with Nigeria only taking reciprocate action against the inhumanity meted out on its citizens by the host nation, South Africa. Investors are not dumb. They understand. Nigeria still has Africa's biggest GDP. Our solid 200 million population cannot be ignored by investors, it's our strength. Even with all the supposed insecurities in our Nation, tech firms are raking in record amounts of staggering investments. Of course, global investors will take note and stay clear. today your dispute is with South Africa and you are taking it out on their innocent business entities. Tomorrow if your dispute is with India it means you will take it out on Indian business entities. Note: I've never said Nigeria should do nothing. There diplomatic avenues of resolving the current channels. These include the African Union, The African Commission on human and People's Rights, and of course the UN. |
