Yesterday, I got information on some other xenophobic attacks being meted out on Nigerians in South Africa that's silent but KILLING. I was told that most Nigerian men in SA who are married to SA Women are still unable to get their resident permit even after 10-20yrs of living in SA. This is against their law which has a provision for foreigners who are married to SA women to get their permit after some months. As we all know, even the almighty US does not suffer Nigerians like this. This is one of the major reasons why most Nigerian men, though married to SA women, can't come home with their family. They are trapped in SA as if they are in jail because they may not get another chance to get into SA to be with their family if they risk a trip to Nigeria. Another act of wickedness is, making it HARD for Nigerians in SA to rent or buy an apartment in their name, even when they have gotten SA resident permit. Most landlords and housing agents would treat Nigerians with utmost hate Because most Nigerians are denied the rights to citizenship even after marriage to SA women or men, it's impossible for them to open bank account no matter how legitimate their job is. This leaves most of them with the option of keeping money in their spouse or girlfriend's bank account since Police could raid their house any time and take away any huge some found not minding if it's age- long savings. That saving of money in SA women account is a risk few men could take. Even those who were lucky to get a resident permit could have it revoked at any time by the SA government for no REASON. This has led to most Nigerians in SA losing their monies in the bank as they need their papers to be able to make withdrawal. This wickedness is usually visited on rich Nigerian guys so that their government could confiscate their money in the bank. Children of Nigerians in SA are not left out as they are constantly bullied in school by other kids for being super intelligent and taking home every award/scholarship. These animosity is silent Xenophobic war and worse than the occasional Xenophobic attacks we see from far. It's harder to be a Nigerian in SA than to be a Nigerian anywhere else in the world. It's painful to see South Africans live and freely do business in Nigeria but our people don't enjoy same in their country. Nigeria certainly doesn't care about how her citizens are treated around the world or this won't be happening!"

Funny though.

Because in Nugeria, if you marry a Nigerian women as a foreigner, you also do not get automatic citizenship

I don't think any country offers automatic....you have to go through the process of naturalization. 3-10 yrs.
