stanisbaratheon: But these pictures you posted is a testament that Nigerians are not stealing your jobs as some South Africans were alleging. So, what then was your reason for killing Nigerians in the past?
AmazingELixir: Stop talking nonsense youngman...Nigerians are contributing meaningfully to the growth of the South African state...your Medical and educational sectors to mention but a few are replete will highly trained and qualified Nigerian professionals contributing to the advancement of that country. These facts your compatriots have admitted and yet in line with the xeno tendencies of you lot a vast majority still contend that Nigerians are taking up SA jobs even when such requisite capacities ain't available locally.
The fact that some Nigerians conduct themselves outside the fringes of acceptable societal norm is no basis to classify all Nigerias as such.
Nigerians by their nature move around a lot and they assimilate like no other in the globe..the recent midterm elections in the United state is testament to that..Nigerians are voted into elective positions on the strength of their enlightenment and capacities without prejudices and hate just as South Africans have made their hallmark.
Wait until thorough investigations are conducted by the SA police and see if the culprit(s) do not have South African ties.
How is it that Nigerians are advancing other countries whilst their country is shitty?
Moymoy: Sad to say this, but SA men have low self esteem and inferiority issues. In Nigeria we go for the lady we want. Whether money dey or e no dey. You don't go and burn down the house of the one who won the contest. 2. They get girls pregnant and evaporate. Naija boys get the girl pregnant, go and meet the parents, and begin to cater for her and her family. I have been there. Not all who went there are drug dealers. Many are lecturers, pastors, professionals, handymen, investors ( for instance, people like Atiku).... Meanwhile, the whites, Asians and Arabs are the economic heavyweights. Why? They should answer the question. The schoolgirl videos with girls doing all manner of horrible things, remind me again: which country again? I beg, let's return and rebuild Nigeria joor.
AfonjaPriest: Your point is pointless! Before you can make a reasonable submission on any matter, do a thorough research. There are Nigerians, in a number exceeding million, doing legitimate work, business, and are law-abiding. You can't just readily conclude that, because a Nigerian is guilty, all Nigerians are. In Nigeria, there are many foreigners doing terrible things, yet there is no hullabaloo made by their compatriots. But here in Nigeria, when a Nigerian does anything bad abroad, some unconscionable louts would be carrying the issue on their heads like a second brain. If you study the average South African, you would find they are easily given to violence, the result of the harsh environment of apartheid they were bred in. If a Nigerian is caught breaking the law in a foreign land, the law should be applied. But when that happens, let no one quickly jump to conclusion that that is the case with all Nigerians. The Syrian man convicted in US was not demonized because he's a Syrian. If anything, everyone's mind would be focussed on the important fact that the man is a terrorist.
Treadway: South Africans hate Naija ehn..same Nigerian that stood by you thru apartheid. But I can't blame them really 9ja people are something else. Imagine being despised both within and outside your continent. What a time to be a Nigerian!
jclassiq: South Africa is really a shitty country to be honest. And i wonder why people go there.
A supposedly civilized country but the inhabitants are all barbarians from the stone age.
Very disgusting.
Before you know it now, they will pick up things and start attacking Nigerians as if the woman was drugged when she was doing video sex with a faceless man.
The idi0t impersonated douye diri and the lonely old woman fell for it.
MatrixReloaded: Make dey no carry this rubbish go Fp. RSA no be 9ja. We no be their mate bone say our govt dey fup big time. But then again RSA na piss of shit. As I land the airport sometime ago in OR tambo , I saw their pastor billboard and I wanted to take a picture then boom a security guard rushed my phone and told me mot to snap. From the airport I detest ever stepping foot on that soil. Spit
theTranslator: Grammy is no indicator of good music.
If at your age you don't have this in your skull, I don't know what you have up there
South Africa with all their money is no match to us in entertainment South Africans watch Nollywood, I know this How many Nigerians watch any movie from SA? The 2nd largest amapiano song is by a Nigerian
You should stop comparing is to these small countries, it's a disgrace
BS... What entertainment? Where do we watch nollywood? Do you really think we pay to watch crap? How do you know we watch crap? Answer how many nigerians watch SA movies? Piano is SAcan, we listen to real piano here not that diluted crap you claim is piano. No one is listening to any piano from Nigeria here.
morpheus101: You really are slow Wena, how many times must we tell you the $25 million doesn't have to come from your pocket. No wonder your government can't solve problems, if most of you think like Kgr28.
The corruption article on ZImbabwean health care is irrelevant to the topic. The issue is about if your country is able to subsidize health care and not if there is corruption that exists in different countries. Olodo!
Bantu education is not good o!
Olodo/stlatla who first brought corruption issue to the topic aliens You claimed $25 mill is nothing compered to R850 Mill stolen in a month through corruption. Whatever solution you suggest SA must do to solve aliens problem. in your words be 'pragmatic' so can can Zimbabwe.
morpheus101: The MEC is strained for 350 Million rand/$25 million dollars. I laugh in Sotho. I dare you to type on moneys that flow just from ongoing cases of corruption in your country and see whether the amount you just stated is close to what they are stealing. Olodo.
There are a myriad of ways to raise $.25 million dollars per year by your government my dear , just one of your ministers houses cost that much money and FYI the money you supposedly will tax is paid for by the foreigner and not you you dimwit. If you then seek to halt the wave of incoming foreigners to de-sway or discentivize them from coming you enact laws that make it easier to try and deport them but that costs more money your politicians are unwilling to spend on you neh so they leave you to go to war with a majority of poverty stricken immigrants.
PS. See below investigation into tender corruption for 850 million rand siphoned from your hospitals in just one month for all to judge for themselves.
lymelyte: you have finally confirmed your senselessness
Don't hide behind English meanings and shiiit. Nature/Nuture/Nurture whatever, GET THIS, NIGERIANS ARE DODGY BY NATURE, IT IS IN THEIR DNA. NO COUNTRY WANTS YOU. DEAL WITH IT.
morpheus101: Illiterate. I used the 10 million as a general number of students in total in SA as compared to the 50 million population in South AFrica and not the number of people in Gauteng.
now let me explain again cause I know you are slow:
An estimated 3 million "illegal" foreign population in South Africa( and I am being generous with that number) would have only about 10 to 20% of that number accounting for children btw the ages of 1-17 years old. This would amount to and estimated number of 300,000 to 600,000 total population of possible illegal children in "public schools" not private oh!. Compare that to a total population of 50 million people and extrapolate the same percentages of children btw the same ages which would be btw 5- 6million SA students in "public" school that the government is supposed to take care of.
Now juxtapose 300,000 to 600,000 foreign children to 5 to 6 million SA children and tell me what the ratio is. IF you can do that then your small brain will see that the burden you keep yelling about everyday about foreigners is a fallacy and your government cannot provide for the 5 to 6 million kids but is blaming the inability to that on foreigners but your SABC will not report this because its not sweet news.
Wake up Wena and go and blame the right people for your problems neh!
Dummy the article/ link was about Gauteng. I don't understand what made you write a long Bible about learner numbers in the country. Any-how Gauteng has a lot of migrants so its correct 250 000 illegal learners. Gauteng has 2 million + learners roughly budgeted for with about 2 000+ schools. For Gauteng R60 bn budget, 70% of that goes to compensation of employees which include Zim educators " Zimbwabwe AGAIN". Then 7.8 bn (13%) goes to transfers to schools to run their business. Depending on which quintile the schools fall, roughly each leaner gets R1 400, now take that 250 000 x R1 400 = R350 million. So R7.8 bn + R350 mill, do the math. Who must pay for that extra R350 mill? Isn't it what the MEC was saying when he said the department is strained?? Now take those numbers you posted for the rest of the country and do the math. Waphapa wena, you know shiit. Its true we barely provide for SAcan learners in as much as we the government fund R402.9 bn on basic education now you want us to accommodate by your numbers 300 000 to 600 000 illegals Fotsek. And the MEC said its over 250 000. With your fvucked education funding in Nigeria can you afford extra 1 000 000 illegal ghanaians leaners You cant even afford to pay your Universities looking like warehouses lectures and staff - ASSU strike whatever it is has been on strike for what 8 months? and its an annual thing neh? See that's why I told you no one migrate to Nigeria, imagine if you are a foreign student that has to stay 8 months without schooling. Then you want us to be pragmatic. Zim illegals must fotsek, that's us being pragmatic.
morpheus101: I used those past events to set the stage that migratory patterns to more economical stable nations within Africa is nothing new and if you knew the true story of the Ghana-Nigeria rift you would keep quiet. It was more of a political and ideological fall out between the two nations as Kwame Nkrumah aligned with certain ideologies that wanted a United states of AFrica while Nigeria because of its large diversity did wanted to remain a soveriegn state post independence and not so much an economic one. Ghana was pissed off and imposed the aliens act on Nigeria who then retaliated. The point being it was a political rift not so much an economic one.
morpheus101: Like I said pragmatic people think out problems, others simply are emotionally driven ranters who come on here to air out their frustrations in life.
So 250,000 people can strain the educational system that is meant to serve over 10 million minor children in SA.
You are not a very clever person.
Smart pants, that 250 000 is for gauteng only with their own budget. Gauteng doesn't have 10 mill learners and we talking public schools here. An education MEC for gauteng knows the extent of the problem but you want to dispute that. the fvck man. You know nothing. I think there are pragmatic people Zim, they can solve their problems, and stop coming to SA for charity.
morpheus101: Its exaggerated because the ANC knows elections are coming up and instead of concentrating on their dismal service to the people they are scapegoating illegals as the "real" source of the poor peoples problems.
Illegal immigration in my estimates contributes a less than 10% strain on service delivery issues to SA citizens unless you have a better stat, I am sticking to that on the grounds that the population of "immigrants" within the country cannot be more than 6 million people as a whole and the numbers are too small to cause a crash in the allocation of resources to a 55-60 million population. Mathematically it does not add up and your government knows this.
PS. This does not mean that there is not an issue only that the issue is being over exaggerated in terms of numbers.
Yes your estimates. So 250 000 undocumented kids cannot cause strain on Gauteng province education budget? Like you said I know nothing about naija, you know nothing about SA with your estimates.
morpheus101: Other than trying to bash Nigeria your response doesn't make any sense at all. The point is in an unstable economic and political environment within a region you will find an influx of citizens from that country to neighbouring countries that are doing well. This happened to both Ghana and Nigeria in the 60's and 70's. It is still happening now in some parts of West African and Nigeria presently does see an influx of economic foreign migrants particularly from the Northern borders into all parts of the country but of course you don't ready so yo wouldn't know what happens past the Limpopo river.
Go and play with people on your intellectual level neh!
The problem with you is you think you smart. Don't tell me about the 60s and 70s, ahhh those years when you chased Ghanaian s from nigeria. You talking rubbish no one is migrating to nigeria. Give me numbers lets see.
morpheus101: Do you understand what I just wrote, find a tax regime to fund the money that will be spent on foreigners and allocate to the health care sector for example there can be fee increases on applying for visa's or extensions of Visa's That would indirectly flow to this sector but knowing your corrupt officials, the money will likely not get there.
morpheus101: Are these foreigners stealing your jobs, if so what % of them are doing this, if not that what are they doing to you directly that is causing you harm. Criminal elements? if so what % of Ethiopians are commiting henious crimes in your community. What % of Somali are raping your girls, breaking into your houses, if you can't give stats of those being apprehended or locked up then your police force is ill- equipped to deal with these criminals. I do highly doubt that a bunch of those nationalities you have mentioned engage in criminal activity. A small % maybe but definitely not the majority.
The best you can argue is they create a nuisance and you dont like the fact they are there. That my dear is not a crime.
PS. I had the privilege to Volunteer both in Bloomfontein and Welkom in the Free State many years back so know a little bit of that territory.
Sotho people are generally peaceful folk and not as roudy as the Joburgers. The cold there was however unbearable sometimes.
Yes they damn fvckiing stealing the jobs. How the hell would you come all the way from nigeria and come open a damn barber shop in a small town unless you are involved in some dodgy shiiit. The point I am arguing is, you said immigration issue is bit exaggerated in South Africa. So I am telling you it is not. its real. YEAH ITS DAMN COLD HERE EVEN NOW.
morpheus101: Have you taken your anxiety pills yet darling, cause you obviously can't read properly.
Slow down read my response and come back with a sensible answer neh!
Nigeria is an economic hub in west africa but it does not have immigration problem. Because Ghana and the rest of your neighbors are stable, but again who would want to look for greener pastures in nigeria when its citizens are running from the richest country in africa. you get my point neh! its not like nigeria manages its borders and migrants effectively but no one wants to migrate there. So your theory doesn't hold.
edosignature: 1- Go check the rate of Laziness, Drunkenness, Xenophobic against hardworking blacks amongst SA blacks. 2- Go check the rate of false belief amongst Black SA on other blacks 3- Go check the rate of transmission of diseases among black SA.
If you've done all these, come back & comment appropriately.
morpheus101: It is not complex. Many countries around the world adhere to this same stance of equal access to health care which is considered a human right however many of them have figured out how to charge the uninsured or track them to make sure there is not an abuse of the system.
Some have figured out how to fund these circumstances by devising ways to tax illegals or immigrants to supplement the costs of health care.
Your government is just clueless and have a lot of semi illiterates running ministries and so they pander to the public so they look as if they know what they are doing.
So can a poor person from Zim pay for medical bill? Inst it the gov of Zim that should take care of this poor sick person? public health in SA is free for poor people who cant afford private care. This poor sick person is taking the advantage of free health care in SA because health care from her country has collapsed. So SA must take care of us and Zimbabwe citizens?
edosignature: Black are racists too. Blacks South Africans are Xenophobic by nature, lazy, drunkards, all they know is sex & spreading diseases, blaming other hard working blacks for their laziness & misfortune.
Tell me where you are liked. How are we lazy - tell me. I bet you there are no drunkards in Nigeria. 200 million people - I guess you can figured out who likes sex, what disease?
morpheus101: This is a strawman argument you are presenting here Mfethu. You are attempting to answer the question posed by asking another question about something else. A diversionary tactic by dimwits who are unable to follow logically arguments.
Answer the damn question man. why is Nigeria not like SA after 60 years.
