RuudVanNisteroy:

Nigerians are not known for peddling fake news. I had to call him out.

What do you mean NOT known? Nigeria is a hotbed of fake news.

RuudVanNisteroy:

I can confirm South Africa is the best country in Africa,my brother came back after a visit to Cape Town,Sun City and Johanessburg. And he said South Africa is developed,the Dutch did a great job.

Which Dutch are these you keep talking about? Please explain...

TMKsouth:

Afrikaans aka the Boers- they are of Dutch heritage. The Dutch played a huge part in my life.

Okay, and were the Cape and Natal in particular, dutch colonies?

They used to be historically. I learned about the strong Dutch influence in South Africa when I lived in the greatest country in the world-the Netherlands.

Okay, let's deal with the full history of SA instead of overstating the Dutch role in the country's development, coz I see you wanna give them the credit for everything.

So do we agree that the British ruled the Cape and Natal colonies of SA?

I am not that versed in the history of SA, but I know the Dutch played a strong role in the country development. The fact Afrikaans is is one of your more languages is telling.

De Clerk the South African President who handed over power to Mandela is of Dutch descent. And Botha was also of Dutch descent.

Yeah, I'm glad you admit you're not well versed in SAs colonial history. I would suggest you keep your over-appraisal of the Dutch in check.

Various people have played a major role in SAs development, and different region's felt it differently. There's a reason there was the Anglo-Boer War (British against Dutch, with the African populations taking sides). Today the black people are in power and making their own contribution.

So let's keep this exclusive "because of the Dutch" rhetoric of yours to a bare minimum. It's beginning to annoy me.

What is the general opinion of Nigerian political leaders in South Africa?

RuudVanNisteroy:

You know your history better than me.

you won't find such names as De villiers, Le Roux, Le Roux etc in the Netherlands for example, those are French names, but in South Africa those are Afrikaans names

RuudVanNisteroy:

What is the general opinion of Nigerian political leaders in South Africa?

I don't understand. We don't have Nigerian political leaders in SA.

IronGalaxy:
Afrikaaners aren't only of Dutch lineage, even French

And Khoisan, Malay, etc. They even rejected the language and adopted Afrikaans as the official language during apartheid.

TMKsouth:

Nigerian political leaders who rule over the geographical space in Nigeria.Do you think they are a reflection of the average Nigerian?

Most South Africans don't care about what's going on in Nigeria or the rest of the continent. Those that do are a very tiny minority.

The only reason it seems like we care is because we are menaced by those countries' citizens who live in SA. If there wasn't a strong immigrant population in SA we would be living as a closed-off island.

100% True

Even if you ask Botswana and Namibia whether they are better than Nigeria, they will answer NO in unison


So what's all the noise about? Genoa have not even posted any pics from Eko Atlantic. Just few from Abj and few from Lagos. Nothing from Akwa ibom, Calabar, Enugu, Kano and Port Harcourt, even Kaduna.

Nigeria too much Jareh, forget our leaders inadequacies.
