Please don't compare us, Nigeria is way better than South Africa you guys, only need to sort out your governance issues and you will be celebrated forever.

Look at the desecration of law by the Presidency for example, how can you draw in investors with that?

They hold their God damned leader accountable for every dime, that's why corruption eased a little bit and moves the people in power to work and build their nation.


But u see we in Nigeria are fantastically corrupt, we youths rather hide behind our phones and social media calling for reform. we are such a tribalistic small reasoned bunch while we are busy hating on each other those in office are busy looting our future away.


It's so bad that some of our youths and elders celebrate failure and mediocrity,( like that dead meat seller).

Tell me how do u want progress while we sold our hands and watch them play god over us.

Lalasticlala give us more patronage to this topic by gracing it to front page, we must have sense by force.


kiss the bitter truth

The influence of foreign investors in South Africa is the major reason behind her development, the country have more whites than any other African country, just like the west, Europeans will always develop anywhere they find themselves.

Ritual killings capital, 2nd country in the world in open defecation, 2nd country in the world in child marriages, legendary scammers, drug traffickers, human traffickers etc look yourself in the mirror, there's a reason many countries can't tolerate Nigerians

Thank you OP but the major reason we are lacking behind is tribalism our politician used it to divid us why they are busy United on looting our common wealth take for instance Tinubu many Yoruba people will vote for him than voting for a saint from Hausa or Igbo likewise others such are not in South. South Africa don't know what is tribal politice and is even against there law to campaign using ethnicity as a weapon. The average Nigeria citizens don't know what it take to be Nationalistic a South Africa citizen will die for his country to be good how many Nigeria will do that instead he will said is because is not igboman there why you didn't protest when Gej was there while he is suffering and protecting the person who don't care if he live and so called politician will go medical aid abroad, all his children abroad and he didn't even see money sending his children to university or secondary school. South Africa paid every elderly person from 65yr every month equvelent of N40,000 new born baby to 18yrs equvelent of N10,000 free medical to any including non citizen, free education to grade 12 I.e Secondary school. Yet they never complain of not having money to execute governmental infrastructure. The day Nigeria do away tribalism and see national interest above any thing that is our beginning of transformation to good governance.

Pls separate the developments brought in by white South Africans with that of Black South Africans and compare Nigeria's development with that of Black South Africans to see the difference.

That black South Africans were the last set of black community that was freed by white colonists shows the rate of backwardness and primitivity among them.

That the majority of developments in SA are white development and a black South African is busy here trolling Nigerians with developmental inputs of their apartheid sworn enemies confirms my earlier assertion about their primitivity and inferiority complex

Yet we are the supposed giants of Africa, only by population!!!

No government has been able to put that population to good use for the benefit of the masses!!!

They are focused! They have blue print!! They call a spade by it name!!!

How do you begin to explain to an illiterate the meaning of Goals, Aims, long or short term objective

We keep going round in circles!

You see, many of us keep blaming Lord Lugard and our previous leaders but they meant well!!!

They made good laws but did we honour the agreement

The law states that as a president, you must have a stipulated level of education!!!

Is it the duty of Lugard, Azikiwe, Obafemi... to ensure that it's done

Okay, in 4 years, he failed WOEFULLY! Still we with the exception of South South and South East watched him rig himself in again and we are blaming Luggard undecided

We ALL saw the handwriting on the wall, if we ALL protested then, won't we have prevented this disaster

The Whites in SA should run a comparison with their European brothers. After all they are not even Africans originally.

When you want to do a comparison among Africans be specific.

Ever since they left since 1994, corruption is now the order of the day in SA
