The writer is very correct. SA is on a downward spiral. Their own PHCN called ESKOM is starting to fail. Generator sales is growing and China is selling big. The funny thing is that ONLY a sensible white SA government can revert the impending failure. The same route Nigeria followed to be at the present doldrums is exactly where SA is treading. Exposed people like the author and the OP have no where else to cry but Nairaland. Many black SA are starting to realise that no one will hear their cries but their fellow black people. But who will help them? This is the big question. CERTAINLY NOT THE FAILED NIGERIAN state. It's a tough world for Africans especially the Blacks. Chai!

How South.?

You no dey try to call me at all.

Actually, the article was posted on a popular and thoughtful South African website. The author is over-reacting though. SA will get its act right sooner than later. 9-years of Zuma misrule can't be fixed in less than 2 year by the current administration.

To remind the world Nigeria is a failed state.

well, you ain't far from the truth, naija is a failed state.

But, do you think we need your input ?

If only you could divert the time you used in typing these loads of Bullocks to starting an awareness on HIV epidemics in your home country. (I hear 6 out of every 10 people selected at random are positive)

Violence against women...

Poverty.....

Crime...

If Nigeria is a failed state ( we all know), your country is also a failed state.

Pot calling kettle black, nonsense.

Then why is there ONE WAY traffic to SA from Nigeria. You should respect yourselves more than that - risking your lives to cross into another "failed" state.

What does skin colour have to do with anything, after all, it was the White SA government that caused all the problems. If they'd taken into account the indigenous population, when developing the nation, South African wouldn't have had such a huge infrastructure deficit at the end of apartheid.

Yujin:

I don't beat about the bush. So far, no black controlled country has been able to develop and sustain a country to be a second world country let alone being among the first. SA black controlled government inspire of their improvement of the affairs of the black population have failed the country at the national level. O yes, it has nothing to do with colour but so far so good, only the white government holds any promise of development. This is the sad truth.

rdokoye:


Isn't Botswana a second world country? What about Gabon? There are many medium developed nations in Africa. So what you've written is untrue.

That said, there's no logic behind your reasoning. The facts, as I've outlined them are simple: the massive infrastructure deficit in the country is due to the WHITE government. So how could you possibly conclude that they are the only ones that could/can fix it?

Since you don't know nor understand white people (I'm assuming you were born and raised in black Africa, due to your lack of dignity and self respect), let me tell you what they would do. If white people were to reclaim control of South Africa, all they'd do is implement policies that benefits their demographic at the expense of the locals. And as justification, they'd simply blame the locals for their own predicament.

South Africa doesn't need further entrenchment, it needs BOLD African leaders, that are willing to do whatever it takes to safeguard its people. Even if it means stepping on white peoples hands. That's the main problem in South Africa, the HUGE wealth disparity. White people control EVERYTHING in South Africa, and they're not willing to give it up. South Africa's economy needs to be redistributed, all must eat, or they'll forever be chaos in the land.

Yujin:

Lol at Gabon and Botswana being developed. You don't know Jack. None of those countries are close to the level of SA developmentally. My friend, even SAns know that their black government have failed them. Blacks generally have so far proven not to be able to handle countries properly. There's no single black country different from the rest. I'm not saying all blacks are incapable of a positive change. Of course, some blacks have contributed greatly to advancement in various fields of endeavours but you and I know that non of them will be allowed to head a country. It's our collective fault. SA as at present have no such visionary leader. That is not debatable. Even Malema is not fit for the job.

And who are the Nigerians coming to you failed country ?

The last time I checked Nigerians aren't even in the top 20 immigrants in your HIV infested country, get lost joor, ko koshi dalun

You'll think their country issa paradise the way they run their mouth here. Awon olofo

Kapilta:
this is something i really hate. Lebanon don't even have Nigeria population but you will surely see Lebanese in every nook and cranny of the earth. Now imagine Nigeria 'a black nation' of almost 200 mill. I intentionally put that black nation because we all know black nations (almost all) are all failed states hence there will be movement.

And again i wonder what the obsession is with every other black nations too. I still do not understand how Nigeria is always in their mouth whenever they want to make an illustration of everything bad. Zimbabwe, your closest neighboring country, do they enjoy constant electricity? I doubt, even if they do, there are 54 recognized African countries of which almost 50 or so are black nations and of all these black nations only few can boost of development or let me just use constant electricity as regards this discussion, but here you are handpicking Nigeria of all. This thing is so common to you lots(other black nations) that i sometimes wonder if the name 'Nigeria' sell article or whatever faster than the rest of its counterpart.

You lots don't even ever consider the mental health of Nigerians, yes, Nigeria is a failed state but the way the rest of you act like you are in anyway better and all come together to make it seems Nigeria is totally different from the rest is tiring.

Go to Ghana, go to Kenya, go to Liberia, Sierra leone. Cameroon.

How can i be Nigerian and just want to travel to somewhere else just to have peace without hearing the name Nigeria and Nigerians but it's almost possible once your are in any black nation.

We are heading to 2020, y'all should please stop.

TMKsouth:


Please spare me. Your own Nigerian organisation here claimed some years back that through the issuance of membership cards there were around 800THOUSAND of u.

U people would sell your own mothers for a chance to live in SA. Remind me again how many Nigerians returned home following September's round of violence here? A paultry 400 or so.

I laugh in all the 11 official languages of South Africa.

Waterview:

If you like laugh in 1000 official SA language, I don't give a fvck.

The official figure released by to ur motherfucking immigration says otherwise.

Your country is just like every other African countries, mediocre........... Not even the best, to me is < than Nigeria in all ramifications.

The way you guys run ur HIV invested mouth here baffles me, soilsista .. who might be a victim of gang rape is found of
talking trash here. Your country is no USA Germany, Australia or UK ... It's just a regular African country. 200 years voyage back.

TMKsouth:


I'm sure u typing this from some rat-hole in Hillbrow.

How bout u host a Soccer/Cricket/Rugby World Cup first & then u can come back compare yourself to mighty SA. We bid against Western countries & win for these events. That speaks volumes.
