Slytiger:
South Africans know the difference though. Infact, they say fl*t head Nigerians.

We actually don't..

ObiaboAdoka:
If Nigerians are to leave Ghana, the Ghanaians must also leave Nigeria. I am tired of the way these black people think. How will Africa develop with this mindset. S/Africans are killing Nigerians which is not a good thing.
We Nigerians must remain firm and courageous to face any challenge.

South Africans arent "killing Nigerians" stop lying

Mirasteel:
Why always Nigeians? you Nigerians should ask yourself that.

Exactly

JaceBlaze:
Hai I really don't know what has happened to this forum.They have disabled my account from posting pictures,even harmless memes dey ban am naa .On top of that they now got this 40 character thingy going

Lol they once gave me a red card for posting A***f***o***n.... But a Nigerian can scream "primitive zulu" all day on here and it be business as usual.

Yup, I've noticed there's a certain bias, I'm also banned for saying the most harmless of things

Wadoh:
Criticism Is Not a License for Prejudice — Why Generalizing Nigerians Is Unfair, Harmful, and Counterproductive
1. Bad Behavior Is Not a National Identity

No nation is free from wrongdoing. Yes, some Nigerians commit crimes, just as people from every nationality do. But to claim that Nigerians are “giants of crime,” “giants of prostitution,” or “giants of corruption” is not just an exaggeration — it is a form of ethnic slander.

If bad apples have overpowered the good ones in your view, perhaps it’s the lens you're looking through that needs balance — not the entire group that needs condemnation.

Would it be fair to judge all Ghanaians based on illegal mining ("galamsey" or human trafficking cases linked to Ghana? Of course not. So why should millions of law-abiding Nigerians be judged by the acts of a few?

2. Nigeria Is Not a Failed Nation — It’s a Complex One

Nigeria is home to:

Africa’s largest economy

Globally respected authors, tech innovators, doctors, and entrepreneurs

The largest entertainment industry on the continent (Nollywood)

Dozens of regional peacekeeping missions and diplomatic contributions

Yes, Nigeria has governance and corruption challenges, but so do Ghana, South Africa, Kenya, and many others. Using Nigeria’s internal issues as a justification for hostility toward Nigerians abroad is neither fair nor productive.

3. Cultural Pride ≠ Arrogance

Many Nigerians are proud of their culture, language, food, and creativity. This pride is often misinterpreted as arrogance, especially when contrasted with more reserved cultures. However, national pride isn’t a crime, and it should not justify exclusion or ridicule.

The claim that Nigerians always “insert insults” when complimenting Ghana may reflect isolated incidents online, but that doesn’t justify broad hostility.

4. The Igbo King in Ghana Is a Cultural Figure, Not a Threat

Saying an Igbo man “wants to build his own kingdom” and create segregation is a gross misunderstanding. Igbo cultural institutions abroad are not political. They exist to preserve traditions, mediate disputes, and foster community, just as Indian, Chinese, and Lebanese communities do globally.

Every ethnic group has a right to celebrate and organize its culture — so long as it does not infringe on national laws or disrespect its host.

5. Nigerians Respect Ghana More Than You Know

Despite online banter, most Nigerians deeply respect Ghana — for its peace, democracy, and beauty. Many Nigerians invest in Ghana, attend its schools, and even marry Ghanaians. To judge the entire Nigerian population based on social media comments or online trolling is short-sighted and unworthy of someone promoting dialogue.

6. Ghanaians Also Migrate — Migration Is Not a Crime

The speaker mentions that Nigerians are “everywhere,” as if that alone is suspicious. But Ghanaians also live and thrive across the globe — in the U.K., U.S., Germany, and even Nigeria. Migration is human and normal. What matters is how people behave, not where they come from.

7. This Kind of Rhetoric Fuels Xenophobia, Not Solutions

Suggesting that “Nigerians should stay in their country” or “we are suffering Nigerian fatigue” echoes the same xenophobic rhetoric seen in South Africa’s violent past xenophobic attacks. We must not repeat that tragic cycle.

Real solutions require:

Stronger laws (for everyone)

Better diplomacy

Encouraging the good, not demonizing the group

Conclusion: Let’s Criticize Behavior — Not Entire Nationalities
You can call out crime, arrogance, or disrespect without insulting an entire tribe or country. Generalizations breed hate. And hate is never the answer.

If you truly want Nigeria and Africa to rise, then support:

Truth over sensationalism

Unity over division

Solutions over scapegoating

We rise together, or we fall divided.

You are Giants of those things in her home country

Stolen:

LISTEN, OTHERS ARE BUILDING AI SYSTEMS, U WANT ME TO DISCUSS GOSSIP.


THE IDLENESS MIGHT BE THE PROBLEM, U PEOPLE ARE NOT BUSY ENOUGH.

hahaha..thought as much

Stolen:
WHAT IS THE TRUTH EXACTLY?


I WANT TO LIISTEN TO U NOW.

Don't you refer to Ghana as "small Ghana", among other things? Why don't you listen to the video and we'll take it from there

Stolen:
SEE, SOMETHING VERY FUNNY.


IGBO COMMUNITY IN GHANA ELECTED A LEADER AND THAT WAS A PROBLEM FOR GHANAIANS.


THEY WENT ON THE INTERNET MAKING XENOPHOBIC, TRIBALISTIC REMARKS WITH END FOR WEEKS.


THEY DEMANDED ACCOUNTABILITY AND THE IGBO COMMUNITY LEADER ADDRESS THEM AS IF THEY WERE THE PEOPLE WHO APPOINTED HIM OR HE IS WORKING FOR THEM.


HERE COMES THE TWIST, SEE TH GHANIAN AMBASSADOR TO SOUTH KOREA, NO PROTEST.


IGBO COMMUNITY LEADER IS UNPAID AND NOT A GOVERNMENT OFFICIAL BUT HERE THEY ARE PAYING A KOREAN TO BE THEIR AMBASSADOR TO SOUTH KOREA.

When people say the truth about you, it's always someone else's fault. eg, " people are xenophobic, people are jealous,etc, at what point do you guys own up?

Ghana & South Africa representing

Lionessza6:
LMAO

They want to chase away even the olo*sh*os?🙆‍♀️😅. E Don red for Naija .

They always go to other countries claiming traveled and exposed not realizing that even flies can move around aimlessly; traveling around means nothing if you don't understand human nature ,the cultural norms of where you are,the economic situation( that could put you in a favorably position and not cause harm in your new environment) and boundaries you'll always end-up wailing . If you travel around but don't fit in or atleast find a way to live in peace with those you found there ,you're neither exposed nor a person with an expansive world view ...what you are is delusional. An expansive world view equips you with the ability and knowledge to build up careers and businesses around the continent without even the locals realizing you are there ...and there's very few African nationals with that ability . But let's leave it at that. Others are taking trillions back to their home countries out of every African nation without being noticed or having problems in their host communities ,others are going around trying to use their "exposure " to make themselves hated . I'm looking forward to the African Continental Free Trade Area project ...it's going to expose a lot about our perceptions of what being smart ,exposed, traveled, educated and friendly mean in our respective African nations. Lets see who will position themselves comfortably by studying the room better

Not every country will tolerate and shine their teeth to foreigners doing anyhow in their spaces just as they do in Nigeria . That's why Nigeria isn't exactly an attractive place for economic migrants, tourists, and retireees....people don't exactly want to be in countries where everybody and anything is welcome . The most" foreign- loving " nations are never attractive to foreigners for a reason ....and the most anti- migrant nations are the number one destinations for migrants.....interesting

Listen to this Ghanaian woman

Lionessza6:


These people are pure evil

Why is that the same region in Africa that sold the most slaves still continues to dominate human trafficking, child slavery ( young maids) and the selling of children?🤮😒

Could this be a bloodline thing ?

They even treat adult maids like slaves as well..

Reflect7:
But why are Igbos constituting nuisance everywhere they go? They need to stop this, please.

There's no Igbo outside of Nigeria, yall Nigerians

They won't reflect, they will say "Ghanaians are xenophobic" and call them al sorts of insults

Lionessza6:
That's the number one beef for sure ( to them ,we are lucky and they are the unfortunate beings of the world)

Followed closely by SA women ofcourse . ( their main reason for hating SA men)

Don't forget the infrastructure and stability of SA compared to most countries in Africa

When ever they open their mouths about SA those 3 things will always come out . In that particular order

Their three main sources of pain on this continent

@ the bolded. with their favorite line " we take your women" and I'm like, what? How does that work exactly? Do they even know how many fine women we have in SA per capita? It's not as if we're scrambling for a few nice huns.. even a poor man has a nice hun in SA, but ofcourse the arrogance

Lionessza6:
LMAO 🤣

A Very unconvincing encounter

But then again......almost all Nairaland male members have slept with atleast 10 South African women or were *rushed* by one ( begged him for a quickie but he had to rudely turn her down since he had plenty of French, Swiss,Japanese etc women throwing their panties at him as well )

And it's mostly South African women the object of these fabrications, never Cameroonians, Togolese, etc, I wonder why

Lionessza6:
LMAO 🤣 🤣 🤣

Yawn 🥱

Did the South African girl also tell him ,how much she prefers Naira billionaires to rand millionaires?

Let's complete the usual Nigerian male story
( fantasy) already .

You forgot the part where she told him how she has never been fed in South Africa until she met him

You can smell lies miles away.. totally fabricated lol 😂

Rudeness

Lioness5280:
Read the last two screenshots. Very embarrassing. People like RodgersAkpafu despise black SA because they believe that we are *hiding* our problems that's why we don't think like that or are desparate to runaway from ourselves or refuse to put ourselves down for others to mop the floor with our lips . But they will list our problems for us ( meaning we never hide them but we refuse to give up on ourselves)

Yes, very much spot on.. The ill sentiments towards South Africa existed way before this xenophobia of theirs; it is just as front at this point.. Maybe it's because South Africa has white people, and we both know how obsessed with them, they want what we have essentially

Azazyel:
Say anything you want. I don't care. I won't take back my words cos I said the truth

The fact that you worship whites is also the truth fam...

Azazyel:
White people built everything there. The blacks there are only concerned with not letting any other African enter SA.

🤷‍♂️

lightwind:
Yeah are you going to deny that fact that the white built your Country ?

South Africa was built by South Africans and continues to be the case to this day

JaceBlaze:
Oxymoron - how are you seeing them as equals while at the same time referring to them as "masters"?

You care so much that you don't mind crossing dangerous seas in your raggedy banana boat just to be a homeless person in their lands lol

There's no logic with these people
