Our government should fix this country already!
First it was Ghana, now South Africa, who's next?

You forgot to mention the Congo, Tanzania etc to have successfully humiliated us already

Minxie:
For those of you who are blaming this on the entire black race in South Africa, I can honestly tell you that it's a class and geographical thing.

1. In a survey a while ago, it was found that a great majority of South Africans despise the criminal behavior of some foreigners and they expressed concern about it. However, people staying in poorer areas were most likely to rise up against it because it affects them directly. For example, a rich white person can easily send his/her son to rehab if he gets hooked on drugs. A rich black woman can easily get more security at her house to combat burglary. The poor have no defense. So please stop ripping on black South Africans. They are the very same people who support foreign owned businesses, some even house our African brothers and sisters for free and employ them. The only thing is: they appreciate honest people who won't take advantage of their hospitality.

2. If you ask why these protests aren't happening in coloured areas, here is your answer: at this moment, the leading crime in poor coloured areas is gang violence. People are protesting against that. But it does not mean that they don't notice the criminal acts of some foreigners. On many occasions they have come out to protest drug selling, killing, rape etc perpetrated by some foreigners.

3. foreigners themselves complain about the criminality of some foreigners. I personally know of some Nigerians who do not want to stay in certain areas occupied by their fellow countrymen because they are scared of the high crime rates there.

4. Nobody hates Nigerians or any other nationality and nobody is jealous. We just don't like criminals. If you follow South African news, you'll see regular protests against all sorts of crime. Nobody is attacking people because they are foreign, they attack because they want to stamp out criminals. And as we all know, mob justice is frowned upon because there are always innocent ones who get stuck in the mess.

In conclusion, South Africans and Nigerians should work together to out these criminals. Nigerians must stop the silence and speak out against their countrymen who are committing crimes. We don't hate Nigerians, we hate criminals who travel long distances to disturb already struggling communities. We hate our own criminals too. They regularly get attacked in mob justice attempts.

Why is it that your politicians and leaders aren't joining in this protest

Whites don't live among Nigerians.

This is a very big lie because whites live among the black south Africans as well and there are lots of Nigerians there who can afford living among whites

The blacks are the problem

jneutron4000:
Dont mind them, by that comment of calling South Africans lazy, you will know that person must be Igbo. They call them lazy yet you don't want to go back to your Igbo land

I've noticed they even call other Nigerians lazy.

MyMilkshake:
Pretoria my adopted home town beautiful city

go to cape town and see,u go hate pretoria. Cape town be like america.. The most beautiful city in africa.

bigtt76:
Perhaps we need this so that during the next election cycle, the candidates are placed on their toes to commit to making Nigeria better so we avoid this recurring issues and held accountable.

Nigeria is not worse than those places but rather we have more migrant population. There are more Chinese in other parts of the world than Nigerians but China is probably the best Country in the world today.

And Nigerians are not a problem? Nigerians are a big problem even in Nigeria - don't pretend. Now you want South Africans to tolerate that. Please get sense.

when is wrong with black Africans especially SA. African nation hating on another African nation.

south Africans have ran out of reasons to be angryánd now,it's about putting SA first?
Nigeria might be messed up,but when we fail,we don't blame foreigners for it.
Even from the deepest darkness,a nigeria can bring forth light.am sure that scares SAs,nothing more.
Nija govt should redecorate this con3.

What are Nigerians looking for in a black man country?

the KILLINGS go start again.

. Nigerians are not the problem in Nigeria but since they can't stand stand up to their leaders but instead chose another way out so if you say so I wouldn't question you but it is obvious that you don't know what you are saying so get sense

You no what, go to YouTube and watch a youtuber interview he had with south Africans and what they think about Nigerians, then come back and tell me you know what you are saying

Besides, have you had a one and one encounter with a real Nigerian drug dealer or human trafficker?? Don't lie.

frankmoney:
that's just the truth , you see them in a country that's already working , common sense will tell them to act right but no , they will choose to engage in illegal stuffs , for the fact that alot of countries are complaining shows that something is definitely wrong with Nigerians .

Exactly!

YEBOmadiba:
Groups of protesters have demanded more stringent immigration laws while marching through South Africa's capital city of Pretoria directing their anger at African immigrants.

Under the banner of #PutSouthAfricansFirst, small groups of people marched from Church Square to the Nigerian Embassy.

They said government has failed to put South Africans first and have called for the mass deportation of illegal immigrants as well as the revoking of grants and other state benefits.

Various organisations including South Africa First and “Only One SA” have handed over a memorandum of demands at the Nigerian Embassy following a march through the Pretoria CBD.

Action for change’s Nandi Gachwari said their demands were clear.

“We demand an end to human trafficking in Pretoria and, broadly, South Africa; the deportation of all illegal immigrants; the exposure of corruption in flawed Home Affairs processes that grant citizenship to undeserving foreign nationals.”

High Commissioner Kabiru Bala said while he accepted the memorandum, it was unfair that only Nigerians should be blamed for South Africa’s social and economic ills.

The organisations vowed to return to the streets if their demands were not met.

I blame Nairaland mods for allowing foreign miscreants to pollute our Naija cyberspace with their xenophobic nonsense, it is about time you ban foreign accounts formenting trouble on Nairaland, it isn't foreign land. How can an uncivilised and uncouth foreigner be raining insults on the citizens of a country on their forum and the mods see nothing wrong in it? Or how can a sane person generalise that about 95% of Nigerians are drug lords or criminal's and the mods see nothing wrong in it? About time the mods should act accordingly!

asin eeh why allow this nonsense post be pushed to front page

check I am Maya's YouTube blog and see what your fellow SAs said with their own mouth and it was random questions.

Clear definition of Africans hating on Africans because some certain African population is much in their country and in reality they are not the highest and not close.

ignis:
Naija is gradually becoming a laughing stock in the international scene

You got it very wrong.
Nigeria is rather becoming a power to align with.

YEBOmadiba:


The fact that Nigerians flock to SA and refuse to return despite the xenophobia means SA is levels ahead.

why are you always Posting this stuff here why not leave nigerians alone your drive joy in trying to hurt and humiliate Nigeria in Nigeria why whats your gain in posting hate stuff in Nigeria like your country is okey

cant these cursed nigerians stay in their country? they keep taking theor badluck everywhere

ignis:
Naija is gradually becoming a laughing stock in the international scene

because of Igbos

Tissaia:
because of Igbos

truth of the matter is alot of so called nigerians are seen as bandits abroad....what now....
and am not gonna bother with this ethnic nigerians bullshitt....what now....

YEBOmadiba:

Bullsh!t ,Nigerians are everywhere even in Zimbabwe sef
People migrate , just like there are Europeans, Asian and Arabians here in Nigeria .
It doesn't mean south Africa is levels ahead because Nigerians are there, after all your government gave them visa and welcomed them to south Africa at the airports no?

SATANNIST:
cant these cursed nigerians stay in their country? they keep taking theor badluck everywhere

and you cursed south africans should stay in south africa too....

nobody in this world like una either....

Muna4real:


No. It's because the blacks there are useless and foolish. How many times have you ever seen a white man telling his fellow white to leave his country ?

Africans/ black people are not united. This is why black people will keep suffering from racism everywhere in the world they find themselves.

That being said, Nigerians should endeavor to obey the rules of the country they are in. It does not speak well of us as a people to go to other people's lands and disregard their laws. Nigerian parents should also do a better job at parenting because this nonsense starts from the home.

YEBOmadiba:


I wouldn't call selling drugs and running brothels doing better though. I think the world knows Nigerians are into illicit trade in SA and other Southern African countries. The only reason they won't leave SA is because of the much higher spending power of the population (while Nigerians find Shoprite unaffordable). Plus SA people take clean running water and stable electricity for granted.

In terms of Nigerian doctors, there are far more black South African doctors. So I don't see how you'll classify them as doing better, they earn the same. In fact SA doctors have the option of travelling to Europe while SAa is the best option for Nigerian doctors.

So do you see the levels?

If u know any Nigerian involved in drugs and illicit activities why don't u report them to ur authorities?
And if ur authorities don't do anything about it, isn't the fault with ur authorities then? People will commit crime its up to ur authorities to do something about it, and I'm sure those Nigerians aren't doing it alone, they are working with ur south African brothers to pull it off, if they sell drugs, isn't it ur south African brothers that buy en instead of reporting?
And I'm sure u don't really know any Nigerian doing these things u just making noise and following the narrative


Here in Nigeria we have Chinese, Indians and Lebanese doing a lot of bad sh!t but we blame our government and authorities why? Because we know if they were doing their jobs the Chinese and Indians won't be able to get away with such


Stop making noise, ur poverty and economic suffering isn't because of Nigerians

Lazy people

Nigerians are not the reason why you're lazy and your girls prefer our men

The white man, Indians and politicians share your resources. Channel your anger appropriately

tsdarkside:


and you cursed south africans should stay in south africa too....

nobody in this world like una either....

i will be happy if i was south african.
go everywhere in the world u see nigerians
displaying poverty everywhere.
and yes i am a nigerian but not your average nigerian
