It's USA for sure. There is a high wave of Nigerians residing there. That should be around 1M Nigerians or more.

Can u not read? I clearly said those figures were provided by Nigerians themselves in SA.

South Africa does have the economy to support 1M+ immigrants, infact the International Organisation for Migration (IOM) estimates there are over 1.5 M Zimbabweans in SA.

SA per capita income is over $12,000 while Nigeria's is under $5,000, so why wouldn't there be 800K Nigerians in SA?

Nigerians are plenty in SA but 800k is too much..

I’m sure they won’t be more than 300-400k

UnFashionIsta:
I don't really believe that there are that many Nigerians in SA. Those headlines you posted seem to suggest that the claim that there are up to 800,000 Nigerians in SA is false and unverified. I think foreign countries with the most Nigerians, due to historical immigration levels, are the US and the UK with Canada a distant third. After those countries we can talk about Germany, Italy, SA, Benin, Ghana and the UAE in that order.
there are more Nigerians in Ghana than SA

I have been wondering which country has the most Nigerian Immigrants. I know there are sizeable amount of Nigerians in the UK, USA, South Africa, Ghana, Dubai, China, Italy, France, Turkey, Benin, Cameroon , virtually on every country grin

For me I'll say UK, my assumptions are drawn from the foreign based end-sars protests, the numbers I saw during the protests, followed by USA then maybe South Africa.
What are your thoughts?

Because u can't protest or demonstrate in Dubai (UAE)... BROS NO REASON AM OO..

NAIJA YAKPA FOR UAE OOOO

Are you talking of documented or undocumented immigrants?

I think both. Those stats were given by the Nigerian Union in SA based on ID membership cards they handed out.

You are very wrong

The reason they'd are ed undocumented is obvious isn't it?

They are not in the system hence no way of knowing the through number of them.

I don't know why Nigerians like talking about what they don't know about

The number was issued by the Union of Nigerians in South Africa based on ID cards they issue to their members.

I agree it's contested numbers but they came from the horse's mouth (Nigerians), and not South Africans.

It’s a number pulled out of someone’s arse…
Whether it’s a Nigerian or South African arse is substantively IRRELEVANT!

Ask Blurpy, the OP.

Anyway, mentioning inaccuracy, these are the same Nigerians that exxagarate xenophobia in SA and downplay Nigerian crimes.

SA per capita income is over $12,000 while Nigeria's is under $5,000, so why wouldn't there be 800K Nigerians in SA?
My opinion on lack of quantitative reasoning in africans extends to Nigerians also.
When did the so called Nigerians conduct an census of their population and with what resources and authority did they do that?
Of course Nigerians in SA would even claim that there are 10M Nigerians in SA to give themselves status as “stakeholders” in the country.
It’s Nigerian politics; we are so big on population size. We attach so much importance to it.
Like I said, the last “official” estimate on the Nigerian population in SA dates as far back as 2014 and that put the figure at roughly 30k.
Every other thing is propaganda and bullshit.
Forget your per capita GDP, we’re not comparing living conditions in SA and Nigeria. Everyone knows that Nigeria is a shithole.
But how does your per capita income measure with that of US that has just 500k Nigerians?
South Africans are known for quoting bullshit, illogical and unverifiable statistics on immigrant population just make their country look important.
Your own figures are even manageable
Some have told me that SA has 6M zims and 3M Nigerians. grin
