South Africans are daily victims of load shedding, your nation lives on candles every night
.

You mean 2 hours of controlled cuts that are targeted roll-outs? Nigerians are lucky to get 2 hours of electricity per day. Besides Medupi comes online soon. Meanwhile, Nigeria's generation capacity is now 1300 MW http://www.premiumtimesng.com/news/headlines/183496-nigerias-power-generation-at-all-time-low-crashes-to-1327mw.html

lionel4power:
and u southies are any better?

Actually, we are. Yes. Way better. Watch that battery. You drain it and you're done.

Surprised Nigerians are still able to post stuff here. They have no electricity and no fuel for their generators. They should take it easy on useless nairaland topics and save their batteries.

South Africa to start 9,600 MW nuclear procurement process this year

CAPE TOWN (Reuters) - South Africa will start the process to procure a nuclear fleet to generate 9,600 megawatts of power this year, the energy minister said on Tuesday, as Africa's most advanced economy battles an energy crunch.

To meet its targeted nuclear generation capacity, South Africa plans to build six new nuclear power plants by 2030 at a cost estimated between 400 billion rand and 1 trillion rand ($34-$84 billion).

"We expect to present the outcome of this procurement process to cabinet by year-end," Energy Minister Tina Joemat-Pettersson told parliament, adding that the exercise would be carried out in a "fair and transparent" manner.

South Africa has signed nuclear power deals with various countries, including France, China, South Korea and the United States after surprising energy watchers in September when it announced a deal with Russia to build plants worth $10 billion.

Government officials were compelled then to clarify it was in fact just the early stages of a long procurement process, after opposition parties suggested official procurement rules were being flouted.

Joemat-Pettersson also said South Africa, which runs the continent's only nuclear power station near Cape Town, would also re-establish its nuclear fuel cycle industry.

This would include developing domestic uranium enrichment and conversion plants as well as nuclear fuel production sites in a country with vast uranium reserves.

http://www..ng/2015/05/16/nigerian-graduates-with-1st-class-as-best-all-round-student-in-japan-photos/

Nigerian Student Ufot Ekong has broken a 50-yr record in Japan after graduating with 1st class degree and best overall student from Tokai University in Tokyo Japan.

This is the first time a Nigerian could achieve this feat since 1965.In addition to the award,he has developed a car to his name.

He also won Japanese language award for foreigners and solved a mathematical equation that could not be solved 30-yrs ago in his first semester.

Currently he is working with Nissan.

This means nothing because he won't help build Nigeria. He will just be another brain-drain statistic as to be expected from Nigeria. Be it in soccer or academia or science. Nigeria is left to suffer while the brightest run off to other countries. Nigeria's problem is not a lack of capable people. It's a lack of organisation. A lack of brains, from that angle. So, again, this is meaningless.

You don't hear us screaming about people like Siyabulela Xuza and the like. http://www.leadershiponline.co.za/articles/siyabulela-xusa-10414.html

Mzilikazi is right.

morpheus24:
Your feeble attempts at trying to rationalize the reason behind my motives will leave your head spinning.

If you wish to continue this stare down competition. Go ahead.

Yes, you are projecting that anger you feel towards your father for abandoning you when you were born and shacking up with another woman in Kwazulu natal.

I am not your father, Dievluit. I am just a messenger on Nairaland


SAYNOTOXENOPHOBIA!

The feebleness that is apparent for all to see is on your side. Even your countrymen have pretty much distanced themselves from you. You are a loner on the thread like you were a loner in South Africa.

You know why you are a loner, my friend? You know why you are rejected both online and offline? You have no ability to attract other human beings. Be it girls, fellow Nigerians or South Africans. You then, having failed to win the other people over, decide you will hate them. But your hate for them simply pushes them further away. This then frustrates you to the point that you become obsessive. You are obsessive about South Africa for this very reason. But you only have yourself to blame for that. You are not a messenger. You are an outcast, my friend. The problem is not with South Africans. The problem is with you.

The South Africans did not reject you because they are bad. They rejected you because you are not wanted by them cause of who what you are. You are correct when you say that character is more important than nationality. Therefore you were not rejected cause you are Nigerian. You were rejected cause you are Morpheus. Again, the SA-SADC thing. Don't jump on it to try and explain your being rejected. You sound like someone who says Tupac was assassinated for political reasons when in fact he was shot because he was mobbing. You were not rejected for anything greater or along those lines. You were rejected because you are simply a reject.

MduZA:
who ever takes your advice is doing it on their own peril....your bitterness is alarming,south Africa unemployment rate stands on 24% not 36%...you failed to make your mark in SA now you are trying hard to demonize her...you made a comment on this very thread that Nigerians parade expensive cars in front of hostel dwellers...in other words Nigerians are living large in SA...now you have changed the tune...

you are a fool

Combine foolishness with heartbreak and hurt. The result is Morpheus.

morpheus24:
Yes it is the legacy of Apatheid that has left you all with pent up anger issues and violent tendencies towards strangers.

They say when you "let animals out cages, its dangerous to people who look like strangers"...DR DRE Chronic 2001. Bad azz album.


SAYNOTOXENOPHOBIA!!

What exactly is the legacy of apartheid and what about it? You just say things because they sound nice. It's been shown already that you know zero about South Africa. Also, the legacy of apartheid is clearly better than the "present and future" of Nigeria, given the movement of refugees from Nigeria to South Africa. You included.

#SayNoToSAPhobia. Stop the bitter refugees.

morpheus24:
#SAYNOTOXENOPHOBIA

#SAYNOTOZULUMADNESS


Double simple at that!

Yet, it is Nigerians that are refugees in SA. Not the other way round. Stop SA phobia. SA PHOBIA IS ALIVE AND WELL IN NIGERIA.

morpheus24:
I haven't accepted anything. You are simply projecting!

Oh,yes you have. Do you even know what projecting means?

morpheus24:
Projecting. Did you Zulu father terrorize you that much.

No matter how much you want to believe it. Noone hurt me in South Africa


Say it loud

#SAYNOTOXENOPHOBIA in SOUTH AFRICA!

#SayNoToSAPhobia

Simple as that.

morpheus24:
IT can't apply to South Africans. Xenophobia runs in their veins.

Ps...Damn you sound so much like CraigB. Did you guys go to the same school?

Bwahaha, you mean drugLord phobia? Is that what you mean?

Cause you've pretty much accepted that you cant judge people just because they are South African. Your words. Not mine.

morpheus24:
What is contradictory about letting people know Xenophobia is alive and well in SA. I have singing that tune since 2008 and have been vindicated.

Simple because your government managed to sweep it under the rug for the time being doesn't mean its gone. Root causes haven't been dealt with and until then

SAYNOTOXENOPHOBIA!!!

#SayNoToSouthAfricaPhobia, in fact.

What you are fighting against is Morpheus phobia cause that's what you experienced when you were in SA.

You are like a guy who practises misogyny, who is then surprised when women reject him. The more he fails to score a girlfriend, the more he hates women, the more the women keep rejecting him. Its a cycle, my friend. You are frustrated and are a victim, but you have yourself to blame for that.

If you were truly fighting for justice, you'd be fighting against the ills in your own country. But no, you don't care about that. Its SA that you care about, cause they hurt you.

justwise:
.
Are you afraid of those statistics? Number of SA living with HIV as compared to Nigeria? Now you are banging on about death figure.

Are you afraid of the statistics below? This comes from your very own source.

Death is worse than walking around with HIV. HIV is a manageable disease, as South Africa has shown.

Nigerians die more from AIDS. To die from AIDS, you must have HIV first. So, the picture is clear here. What is also clear is that South Africa is winning the battle and Nigeria is not. It follows that prevalence remains if infected people live longer, as they do now in South Africa. Nigeria also leads the world in Mother-to-Child infections, which means it is building a future of HIV positive people, which it fails to treat, hence the deaths.

justwise:
Nigeria

http://www.unaids.org/en/regionscountries/countries/nigeria/

Where does your report say that Nigeria DOES NOT lead AIDS DEATHS globally?

Where?

Nowhere.

Let me help you: See below from your very same report.

justwise:
I know Nigeria HIV figure is high, I don't need your education on that, but HIV is to SA what 419 is to Nigeria.

On the contrary, you do need to be educated on this point. Nigeria leads the world in AIDS deaths.

http://allafrica.com/stories/201407280986.html

Also, Nigeria has the highest number of AIDS related deaths, globally, in 2013. The country is closely followed by South Africa with 13 per cent, and India with eight per cent. (quote)


___

Lots of other stats that I needn't share because the point is made.

seppuku:
The content of the character defines the human being and not their nationality.

#SAYNOTOXENOPHOBIA!

You are contradicting yourself. Apply that " wisdom" to South Africans too, why don't you? But you can't do that because you are a victim. You have been hurt badly by South Africans and now you walk around with a chip on your shoulder, on some crusade.

When it comes to foreigners, "the content of the character defines the human being and not their nationality".

But when it comes to South Africans, no, no, no. No such luxury for them.

Do you know how crazy you sound? No logic whatsoever. Zero thought. Zero sense. This is what happens when your views are driven by bitterness.

morpheus24:
It is strange to me this logic of the problem of Isolationism??

This means that either every foreigner has a mental disorder or its the reverse with the locals.

This isolationism is practiced by Nigerians, Ethiopian, Somali, Congolese, Burundians, Malawians, Mozambicans, Greeks, Portugese, Chinese, Indians, Brits, Germans, Jews e.t.c. that reside in South Africa

Hmmm

Could it be that because you have been locked away in bantustans for quite a while that everyone else looks like "enemies" to you.

This very thread - maybe even you - has confirmed in past pages that Zimbabweans etc are in townships and the like. And that the Nigerians are elsewhere. This was used to explain why they were attacked and why Nigerians were not.

Also, the Soweto and Alexandra you have been jumping up and down about are not in Bantustans. Same applies to Gugs and lots of other townships.

Yet another example of your limited knowledge of South Africa, notwithstanding your having been in the country for many years. Secluded, you have been. Rejected, you have been as a result. Ignorant, you are as a consequence. And bitter, you forever will be.

morpheus24:
Ahh, I see you are one of those who likes to have the last word huh.

Let me leave you with this. The last two comments I made re-enforce The "logic" behind my arguments.

Now please continue to stay on topic.

If you like me so much like that then open up a thread about all the "lies" I spew about your country then we can talk.

SHikena!

Once again: welcome to logic. The truth has set you free. Well done.

morpheus24:
Dogs are also vicious biters!

Have you been bitten by one before?

You still can't accuse them of not being accommodating. You still have 100% of your posts cancelled out by your own acceptance of the truth.

morpheus24:
Dogs are an accommodating species.

That doesn't mean much.

It means you can't accuse them of not being accommodating, which cancels out 100% of your posts.

PAINGAIN:
don't let morpheus get to u. I am a nigerian and south africa has been my home for almost ten years. Truth b told, south africans r a very accomodating people.

Truth speaks.

morpheus24:
So are Nigerians.

What's your point?

His point is that you've clearly accepted that South Africans are accommodating people.

No need to be confused.

morpheus24:
Do you see how those dudes are chilling and smoking right in front of the cops. Civilized people.

No bruises or marks on the guy who was arrested. he is being escorted to jail.

Not being burnt alive!

Yes, chilling and being showered with love as confirmed by the story below. Consequently, no Nigerian burnt alive in South Africa. You are bitter and have been wounded by South Africa. That's that.

[b]How about people to people relation?
It is going on well but a lot of Nigerians have problems coming to China, not because they are not qualified to come but I think a lot of obstacles are deliberately put on their way. China visa regime is a little bit tough, you are expected to have a letter of invitation; so for a business man who is coming for the first time, it is really difficult. The categories of business people allowed to invite foreigners to China, the ordinary traders in Nigeria, even the middle level business people, don’t have access to them.
I don’t know why a typical trader in Guangzhou, for instance, cannot send a letter of invitation to another trader in Nigeria to come to China, but that letter is not recognized. And when they go to the Chinese embassy or consulate, Nigerians are subjected to all sorts of ridiculous treatment. We hear all sorts of stories about how agents are fleecing Nigerians to get them visa; some end up paying as much as N250,000 to N350.000 and they still don’t get the visa, so how do we solve the problems? It is not in our hands, Nigerians need to find out what is going on in the Chinese embassy.[/b]

morpheus24:
Dude jumped out of a building and died. He wasn't killed

Yes, so the Nigerian mob of filth below was protesting against a building and the gods that made the man fall.

Also the man in the picture below was not a member of a Nigerian drug cartel in China. He was arrested for selling roses and cotton wool.

morpheus24:
Again baiting me. Morpheus trying hard to resist....must resist

Stay on topic!

Stop crying. Just accept that South Africa didn't want to accept you and live with it.

morpheus24:
Nigerians fair much better in China and Malaysia than they do in South Africa from my perspective and interactions. You have a higher number of legit traders, importers, students and Nigerian business people who travel and relocate to these countries in comparison to the unskilled and semi skilled type that find it easier to travel to South Africa. China and Malaysia do have issues with Nigerians who engage in illegal activities as should any country but there is no blanket perception that ALL NIGERIANS are drug dealers as it is in South Africa.

The attestation to this is the perception of Nigerians in developed countries like the US, the UK, Germany and the likes which attracts the more working,middle class, upper middle class Nigerians. You don not experience discrimination in the manner meted out in South Africa or at least they are more civilized about it than the South Africans are.



My dear, it is not corrupted at all. I fight for people like you and the little girl in those pictures who's crime it is to be stereotyped by a people who constantly want to blame others for their misfortunes. I am fully aware of how social media exaggerated the pictures about Xenophobia and I am definitely not new to the topic seeing that I have been on Nairaland for quite some time now.

Yes. Nigerians faring "better" in China, as can be seen below.

Consequently, the SA xenophobia attacks never produced such images of dead Nigerians.

http://urhobotoday.com/?p=7300

You fight because you are bitter. Finish n klaar.

morpheus24:
Baiting me. Not gonna work

Stay on topic!

Stop crying, Nigerian. Not my fault South Africans treated you like rubbish, as confirmed by you.

morpheus24:
No one forcing you to watch the videos.

Again reverse psychology 101.....Morpheus24 not falling for these old tricks.

Stay on topic!

Of course no one is forcing me, which is why I have not watched and will not be watching them.

What's with the mute posts? Is it because your bitterness has been exposed?

chineloSA:
Your perception about the country is too corrupted,

It's called B.I.T.T.E.R.N.E.S.S.

morpheus24:
Posts and videos relevant to the topic

Akin Omotosho......South Africa's labor issues..... irrelevant to the topic.

Again, you must be deranged if you think I will sit here and watch YouTube videos.
