South Africans may be Africa hating but they have got some things right that we don’t do. The government is open to ideas and progressives. Nigeria on the other hand are immersed in their own bubble, delusional and unprogressive.

Hope our National Assembly can pass the law, so Nigerians abroad can also vote.
election isn't working properly in Nigeria. Nigeria appoint a president,not by vote bro. That's why it's hard for us(Igbo) to rule this country, because it's by appointment not by vote!

"littering " grin....dramatic grin. We go to countries for business and when we are offered jobs as well as for studies and adventure not for "husling and hardworking purposes" grin. You won't find us in those boats , you won't find us being homeless or chased around by police like savages. Therein lies the difference.

so you mean that there are no Nigerians who go abroad for business, who are offered jobs as well as for studies and adventure?

You definitely have those but the vast majority don't fall into this category, hence you encounter a lot more problems than us and your passport is a red-flag. You have a lot of people moving out to be illegals and "hardworking hustlers" and we don't have such reputation hence our passport is respected.

You missed the point grin. Compare the numbers and the caliber of those likely to go abroad from both countries and you will see why we don't have the same reputation abroad. grin

Nothing wrong with South African people.
It's Nigerians who go there to commit crimes that make South Africans hate us.
will you just shut up and get out of here, so SA don't commit crime somewhere else? Is it correct just system you adopt for a criminal punishment or SA just choose to behave like jungle animals? I don't blame you people, if Nigerians has ignore government and start retaliation here in Nigeria on any attacks on Nigerians in SA. You will understand what violence means. I blame this on our too much ethnicity if not, who is nonsense South Africa we can't deal with. Nigeria can send you back to your colonial master if you don't know, no be Nigeria rescue you? You now have moral justification to accuse Isreal of commiting genocide against Palestinians when you are here killing your fellow Africans. If we decide to start killing South Africa citizens in Nigeria. Do you think you can withstand us? Is this a normal human justice? Barbarians

It's not an everyday occurrence like how Nigerians sell drugs and defraud South Africans on a daily and hourly basis. Xenophobic outbursts happen once every 5 years or so when people are fed up with the rampant criminality caused mainly by illegal migrants.
