Mirasteel: Nigeria has the most richest black middle class in Africa, hence why your women won't leave us alone. 😂😂😂
Facts not sentiments.. How are you wealthier with one of the lowest GDP per capitas in Africa? Or m I not making sense? Economics Greek to your peanut 🧠? 😆
seppuku: It's not about being nice Mfethu, it's about the ethos of a country and what they want to represent. Many Western countries for most of the 2oth centruy adopted and promoted the concept of multicultural societies and liberal democracies that promote human rights.
The world became smaller in terms of its connectivity and many people in impoverished countries began to access to these countries and flooded their gates which created the problem of the citizen right against the fundamental human right and viola you have the problems you are facing.
As I have explained, you can't have it both ways. Change your constitution and become like your typical African country or Russia. That liberal constitution only benefits those in your country who are attached or adapted to a western style democracy/civilization.
You want an answer to that riddle. The answer is both, both governments are responsible. An unstable region will cause instability within that region.
If Nigerians are not fighting for their country then why are 150 million plus of them still there.
The glory days of South Africa are long gone, what is left for you now is something that is slowly deteriorating into "another" African country and this is your worst fear. Stay and fight. If you are lucky you have about 50 more years to live. Do with your time what you wish.
The migrants you are punishing are simply a reflection of your own worst nightmare. No we are not coming. The only thing I will miss out there is the girls with big nyash. That's about it.
You are now jusy typing epistles where you barely say anything..
I said leave us alone with our soon-to- be " banana republic" what are you still crying for?
Mirasteel: The minority of white people in south african built your country not blacks.
It's even a shame that the richest man in south Africa is a white man like wtf? the whites are still indirectly colonising you all. 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Youre just regurgitating the obvious here.. they're richer for obvious reasons..
Decades of colonial rule and aprth3id means they pillaged resources for their own benefit as a group
But black South africans remain thr biggest black middle class in Africa, despite you having the biggest population in Africa and having attained independence earlier
seppuku: Who says you owe anybody anything. You have a migrant problem because you signed a 1961 Geneva convention that allowed for asylum seekers to find refuge in your country. Your countrymen wrote the constitution that explicitly stated in clear words that healthcare was accessible to "all" who reside within the borders of South Africa. They could have said "citizens" only.
Your economy is the only one in Africa that draws a considerable amount of White monopoly capital and white disposable income from European countries hence the draw and influx of migrants.
I simply told you to face your government and make the changes like civilized Africans so you can distinguish yourself from the rest of us "savage' Africans that can't keep our countries straight and you are bring up Kenyans and are vexing with me. Shame!
Your social systems are overburdened because of underfunding and corruption. If a hospital allows a South African sleep on the floor to "make way " for ZImbabweans then that hospital is stupid and that is not the fault of the migrant.
Your prisons are overcrowded with your people inside them Statistically speaking only 1 in 1 foreigners is in your jails. How does that amount to overcrowding by foreigners. Shame the spin. Deport the prisoners We have no problems there neh.
I encourage every African to avoid going to the soon to be Banana republic called South Africa. Investors are avoiding you and people in general should avoid going there if they can so I am on your side.
Ehhh, have you read your constitution lately. There in lies your bane. Change it so you can become like every other dictatorial African state. You cannot function on such a democratic and liberal constitution, not on this continent.
Ahh stop crying like a baby Mfethu. Is talking about your country what is paining you. YOu must grow up neh and see that you are living in 2025 where the world is a small village now.
Stop acting like we owe you anything then, that simple
Yes, all countries that have a migrant problem are all countries that tried to be nice, and they're all finding out the hard way... ie. South Africa, the UK, Sweden et al.. ..
If you have a Zimbabwean crossing the border to get medical help in SA is the problem of YOUR governments, you fail to hold to account and we have to suffer the consequences..
And yes, I bring up Kenyans because they're the only Africans I see fighting for their destinies instead of "japa" to burden others in their countries...
And yes, please don't come, we're so tired of you.. leave us with our soon-to-be "banana republic"
Mirasteel: Nigeria has the highest amount of black millionaires and billionaires in Africa, you can't contest that. the richest man in Africa is a Nigerian while the richest man in your country is a white guy. that's the difference. 😂😂😂😂😂
The richest man is a Nigerian swimming in the sea of poverty, it's pointless..
South Africa has the most dollar black millionaires in Africa, boss, don't get it twisted
Mirasteel: We are abundantly blessed with natural resources but yes we focus more on oil, if we have to focus on all our natural resources Nigeria will be far better, our problem is our leaders. if we have white people just like you have whites south African, Nigeria would be far better.
This is why I told you guys to give thanks to the white people in your country because they brought development there.
seppuku: Yes because out of every 10 prisoners 1 being a foreign national is really crippling your prison system. I agree terrible crisis of overcrowding.
You have the right to deport illegals in your country and expedite due process in doing so. Why has your parliament not passed laws to do this, what is your government waiting for?
You have to right to deny social services i.e. hospital services to "illegal"migrants within the confines of your constitution that fortunately or I need say in this case unfortunately, guarantees healthcare to all who are "present" within your borders. Why are you not doing so?
You have the right to arrest criminal syndicates and expedite deportations out of the country. Why is your government not doing so. What are they waiting for
You are frustrated at the overall inefficiencies of your government and are taking it out on migrant communities who are "generally" helpless.
Your general in Kwazulu natal is echoing these frustrations as well as he proves that your government is in on all these corrupt practices and failures. Look to them to resolve your issues.
Storming hospitals and blocking people who are seeking immediate healthcare on the grounds that you are being patriotic and protecting "South Africans" is infantile. Demonizing a vulnerable population so you can justify your actions against them is also childish.
There are civilized ways to take action. Your dudula is not one of them.
There are reasons men fight and die to uphold constitutions and how they are worded.
First of all South Africa is not the Santa Claus of African countries.. Before criticizing our government, hold your own governments accountable. What's stopping you? Why are we having Zimbabweans looking for medical help in South Africa? What's wrong with Zimbabwe? or Nigeria? You guys aren't our responsibility, we have our own problems for God's sake, we can't possibly take care of y'all, that's why I love Kenyans.. they face their corrupt government head-on!, the rest of you are docile asf and look for freebies but develop big mouths and entitlement while you're here in SA, we don't owe you jack!
Our social systems are burdened, this is a fact!!.. i.e, health systems. We have locals in hospitals in Musina having to sleep on the floors to make way for Zimbabweans from across the border! This is not acceptable !! Our tax is burdened, we have people receiving Road Accident Funds at our expense, but still complain. Our prisons are also overcrowded, this is another fact.. Our government minister is already looking for ways to deport foreign prisoners. If you really feel hard done by South Africans, stop going there and spare us the daily moaning and whining
"There are civilized ways to take action." dude, are your people civilized? The same people who attack our cops and storm our hospitals, demanding medical attention...do they do this in their home countries? We're taken for a ride here, yes, our government has inefficiencies, but this doesn't give you the right to act come and exploit that. We are frustrated at them for allowing you to do as you please.. South Africa is a banana republic
Funny, how when it comes to South Africa, you guys have questions and demands for days, "why can't your government deport", "why can't your parliament pass laws", "why can't your government do this and that" when in fact you should be directing questions to your own governments and demanding they provide services to deter you from going to far-flung countries like South Africa to burden it's people.. Have the same heat for your own governments
JaceBlaze: Exactly. Nigerians are docile but they always try to convince somebody that they are the pushing back twice yet their track records proves the opposite.
I would put my money on Kenyans before i bet on Nigerians to push back
They are the only people in the whole continent that refer to whites as "masters" .The same people that believe that for Nigeria to get better it would have to be recolonised?
Nigerians are just loudmouths, the only thing they know is "japa"
seppuku: Can you name the prisons with the higher foreigner populations to Local populations? Your Department of corrections should have that info shouldn't they?
The headline is misleading and conflating overcrowding of prisons with the percentage of non South AFricans in prison. They are independent of each other and not causal but when you put them side by side you want us to believe that foreigners commit more crimes that locals so you can demonize them.
The fact remains that the overwhelming majority of migrants do not commit crimes in SA when comparing the percentages of migrant prisoners to their overall population size.
Tell Gayton and the PAtriotic alliance not falling for right wing propaganda.
Disclaimer; I continue to acknowledge that there is a migrant problem in South Africa and this needs to be addressed by regularization, border control and deportations. The rest of these flimsy justifications are Kaak
Stop being in denial. This has nothing to do with some conspiracy theory, Gayton, the PA party, or the tooth fairy.. Some of our prisons having more foreigners than locals, it's according to the findings of the Correctional Service Committee, which is the Government! Nothing to do with an individual party here. you desperately want to push this victim narrative where foreigners are these helpless victims facing "xenophobic" backlash, this played-out card won't work with me. Overcrowding of prisons and certain prisons having more foreigners than locals are two very different things. I'm certain our government is privy enough not to conflate the two
Stop putting words in my mouth. Nobody said the majority of foreigners were criminals. The fact of the matter is, they're part and parcel of the crime wave we experience in South Africa; we cannot run away from this fact, especially the undocumented ones.. We wouldn't be sitting with jails with more foreigners than locals in some jails if that wasn't the case..
You acknowledge there's a migrant problem in South Africa, so what exactly is this "migrant problem" if it doesn't come with it's peculiar problems like the burdening of social systems, overcrowding, crime, etc.. the very things South Africans are complaining about, the very things you call "kaak@? So you're essentially acknowledging there are problems but you want us to voice our problems in manner that doesn't offend you or make you uncomfortable. Forget it
South Africa's Prison Population: A Demographic Breakdown
MTD Research Specialists 379 followers
January 11, 2025 South Africa's prison system houses a diverse population, with various factors influencing its composition. Here's a breakdown of the key demographics:
Nationality:
South African Citizens: The majority of prisoners are South African citizens, accounting for approximately 89.5% of the total prison population [Source: Department of Correctional Services (DCS) Annual Report]. Foreign Nationals: Foreign nationals make up the remaining 10.5% of the prison population. This includes individuals from various countries across Africa, as well as other regions.
Undocumented Immigrants: While precise figures are difficult to obtain, official data from the Department of Correctional Services suggests that undocumented immigrants make up a relatively small proportion of the foreign national prison population, likely around 2,000 individuals out of a total of over 140,000 prisoners [Source: Department of Correctional Services (DCS) presentation on Foreign Nationals in Prisons, 2023].
Gender:
Males: Men constitute the vast majority of the prison population, comprising around 95.7% of all inmates. Females: Women represent a significantly smaller portion, making up only 4.3% of the prison population.
Age:
Adults: The majority of prisoners are adults, with the age distribution peaking between the ages of 25 and 34. Minors: A small percentage of the prison population consists of minors, typically under the age of 18.
Race:
Black Africans: Black Africans make up the largest racial group in the prison population, accounting for approximately 70% of all inmates. White Africans: White Africans represent a smaller proportion, comprising around 20% of the prison population. Coloured Africans: Coloured Africans make up around 9% of the prison population. Indian Africans: Indian Africans represent a small minority, comprising around 1% of the prison population.
seppuku: The burden is on he who accuses not he who is defending.
For the record before I am slandered on here. I acknowledge there is a migrant crisis in South Africa and government and home affairs in particular need to do the needful to either regularize people within their borders or deport them back to their countries.
Ah classic Seppuku, Now we gonna play he says-she says l" right? The convo is gonna start running in circles... this what you do best.
seppuku: But you clearly stated that it was "Shaka" who fought te British in your previous post. Please go back and redact that statement.
Is Shaka not Synonymous with what you refer to as Zulu people today who are an amalgamation of other clans who were conscripted into this domineering and expansionist group?
You always claim to know better than thr next person and yet you responded by saying what Shaka did, when he wasn't there to do it.
seppuku: I believe one of your compadres used this spin to justify his hatred of foreigners. Can you post the stats from each of these prisons so we see the numbers?
LOL.. hahaha .. thought as much.. when it doesn't align with your victim narrative it's "spinning" right?
When it's not 'xenophobia" it's gotta be some other reason other than yourselves . Typical
Tis fact Shaka fought the btitish but without context it is meaning less. He fought them because they were impeding on his expansionist tendencies and bloody war mongering ways.
He is no hero and you know it.
LOL, Shaka didn't even fight the British the Zulu did long after Shaka was gone
seppuku: And you are fooling none of us about how you are victims of swarms of black poor class Africans coming to steal all your resources from you when we see hoards of Europeans swarming your country buying up properties, turning you into servant and pricing you out of most of the rich areas of your own country.
Some Warrior people you are?
Always avoiding accountability.. are you telling me, legitimate concerns of South Africans about crime from foreigners aren't legit? Show me one country in Africa which has is prisons full of foreign prisons than locals
And I'm guessing you're these helpless little innocent law abiding victims.. continue playing the victim card.. you're fooling no one especially me as South African
seppuku: A black South African is synonymous with the word Xenophobia. This label did not create itself by accident either.
The first thing any South AFrican knows about the average black saffer is that they are xenophobic. I challenge you to prove otherwise.
Pot calling the kettle black.
Get out of that bubble you are living in.
Except I'm in South Africa talking about the drug dealing I know first hand.. someone from Kaduna regurgitates a xenophobia he has no idea of, two different things..
JaceBlaze: Lol what nonsense do you not tolerate? White people never had any intentions of staying there because of how high them temperatures get.They pillaged the resources with little to no resistance from ya'll.
We don't believe you got it in you like that..nah!
King Shaka fought thick and thin fighting the British..the San also fought the Dutch.. who did Nigerians resist? Because last time I checked they sold their own during the trans-atlantic slave era.. they also sold their own as slaves to Libya as recent as 2022
