Minxie: Someone mentioned that Nigerians are lazy and our economy is being bouyed by Chinese and lebanese.Truth is its false,the Chinese aren't into business in Nigeria so much,they are mainly into road construction and Lebanese also do not have any business in Nigeria that is not rivaled or even bettered by a local Nigerian owned business,Nigeria produces so many things now,gone are the days of so called importing pencils and toothpick,its just that due to massive population local production might not be able to meet demand so we might still need to augment with imports ,but going forward Nigeria is even going more and more local,almost all sectors of Nigerian economy is in the hands of Nigerians,the mainstay of oil is 70% local,only road construction and and probably factories have probably more foreign dominance for now.many people don't know but Nigeria is only going to get better,we have seen our worst times,that's what you guys don't understand .The way Nigeria is going to develop in the coming years will shock Africa 2 Likes 1 Share |

babasolution: Okay I understand what you are saying and as you may have noticed, i told the person that it isn't fair to call Nigerians lazy when we don't know their circumstances. Also, i think the comment about laziness was made because Nigerians on this forum usually call South Africans lazy so it was kinda like an ironic type of joke. At least, that's how I took it. We weren't saying that Chinese and Lebanese are taking over the Nigerian market. We were simply saying that the fact that Chinese etc are the ones employed in massive projects like construction and factories is problematic for its citizens because these citizens should be used and not foreign labour. We aren't saying that Nigerians are incapable of doing these things. Actually I was advocating for Nigerians by saying that there are so many Nigerians who are everywhere doing things but their own government would rather use Chinese etc for such projects. I am proud that Nigeria is producing more because it means that its citizens will benefit. It's a situation of putting Nigeria first (something that South Africans are also campaigning for themselves). In fact, if more countries got their acts together, there wouldn't be such a huge refugee and displacement crisis. Nobody is against Nigeria becoming great. I have no idea where you (and many others) get this notion that South Africans don't want you to develop. In fact, if you develop, we would be able to reap more benefits such as more trade and investment and, obviously, job creation. 3 Likes 1 Share |

Minxie: The Chinese in my opinion are engaged for such projects because of their supposed expertise and experience ,Nigerians are used for the general work of those projects most times you just have a few Chinese directing things with hundreds of Nigerians doing the actual work,also nigeria has local content laws,there is a maximum number of foreigners that can be employed in such situations, its not free for all,although sometimes the foreigners might want to bribe officials to bring more of their people but it is generally followed |

babasolution: thanks for clearing things up. I guess to me it just seems odd because Nigeria has been independent and working for much longer than SA so it's always strange when they look for expertise elsewhere. One would assume that Nigeria would be the country providing the expertise to others. But thank you for telling me more about that situation. I'm glad that they are regulated carefully. I wish it was something we could do too. |

Minxie: Oh no, why would I judge you? I know the struggle. Been there, done that. I followed exactly the same path. LLB then LLM and aborted a PhD. Do you plan on practicing law in any capacity? Do you plan on going into academia? I'm asking because of the masters degree you intend to take. If you get the masters, will you stop there or head for a PhD? Degrees don't make a person superior or inferior to another. What I like to see is value. You have business ideas, have you thought of a way to combine your legal knowledge with the business world? A curious thought just occurred to me. You wouldn't happen to be left handed would you? |

Austine1213: Do u think it takes less than 2 years to fix 9 years of near destruction of SA? The state was broke. Zuma promised us 1 million new jobs but instead left office with massive job shedding in every single sector of the economy except security. |
