African reaction to xenophobia in South Africa has spread as far as Japan. Durbanite and Manchester United fan Jason Jetnarayan, who works as an IT recruitment consultant after starting as an English teacher in the Land of the Rising Sun, discovered this when he went to a pub in Shibuya to watch the recent match between his team and Leicester.



“The pub was busy and there weren’t any seats available, but I looked around and spotted a black gentleman in a Manchester United jersey with open seats at his table

“I approached him to let him know my friend and I were Manchester supporters too and asked permission to join him.



“He gave us his approval in an African accent. As a proud African myself, I was excited about this because Africans are rare here. So I ask him where he was from. He said ‘Nigeria’ and reciprocated the question. I extended my hand and excitedly told him I was South African. He didn’t believe me until I proved it to him, showing him my ID as I beat my chest with pride.

“However, he didn’t seem to share the sentiment by the look of it.

“He was visibly upset, and made a statement about South Africans not being his brothers. I immediately realise he was referring to the xenophobic attacks that have unfortunately occurred in SA for the last decade, and only seem to be getting worse.”

Jetnarayan said he felt a sense of uneasiness, which he described as “a sinking feeling in my chest”.
“The pride I felt a moment before sharply deteriorated into one of shame.

“I, for one, have never taken issue with immigrants in my country or any other. I am in no manner responsible for the xenophobic attacks in South Africa, yet I apologised to the gentleman as he got up to leave the bar, having made the choice he would rather not be affiliated with a South African.

“We’re failing our brothers and sisters in Africa, we’re failing our women, we’re failing our children. We need to be better. We need to fight for our people and speak out against atrocities committed on our land, or else we too are part of the problem.

“Let’s be the resolution.”

Would you blame him ??

Some people would av lighted you..

Way to go!

But wait! Those people in the picture of the Original post, are they brothers and sisters from the same mother and father?


Abi why do they resemble themselves so much like that?

don't blame the Nigerian man, its hard to believe that Africans can be killed by Africans on the African soil like it happen in the rainbow nation

News like this won't hit the front page on time..if it's bbnaija nairaland mods will be like

I don't blame the 9ja man, it's heart breaking what this black South Africans are doing and for those south Africans forming innocent and claiming they don't support what's going on my question to them is "what did they do? Absolutely nothing. They are now speaking out now because of the embarrassment this thing causing them. Nonsense people

Whenever South Africa is mentioned, all that comes to my head is horrific scenes of "Sometimes in April" and "Hotel Rwanda"...

I am a South African and the majority of Nigerians who are involved in drugs and all illigality have left a bitter sentiment in such a away that I will never trust any Nigerian. How can a rich country like Nigeria be exporting so many useless street wonders..

Well ita I think I understand what you're saying. Do you trust a Zimbabwean? What about about Malawians and Congolese? The Ethiopians and Somalians whose tuckshop you often loot: do you trust them? Your hatred is legendary as it cuts across even within yourselves. We don't need your love or trust because you yourselves can never be trusted. You have no truth in yourselves.

Was that why your people killed two Kenyans (non-Nigerians) in the last round of idiocy?

The funny thing is that South Africans seem to have something against every African group. And that is a real shame.

There is always a justification for any innocent person you people attack and kill.

Me I go seat down with you set leg for you to fall.
Then if you react your beating would commence...

Too bad...it pained Nigerians so much considering how much they sacrificed when the whites were dealing with black SA during the apartheid...and the "Thank You" is xenophobic attacks.

You black South Africans created a bitter sentiment, not just amongst Nigerians but all African countries, feel the same way about you,
The hate u have for Nigerian and other foreigners living in ur country is not really about drugs
