Common now. The bills are same in Canada. Our tax is even higher.

Nigerians will also gladly pay those bills if the government can supply them with proper amenities like constant running water anf electricity, fast and reliable internet, excellent health care etc.

Yes naija is easy especially if you are the type that loves to make fast money illegally or via politics. The guys I mentioned above are the lucky ones because they decided to try US schools not Uk or Canada, and they are regular guy/babes with second class upper from naija unis. Maybe one or two have a first class degree. If guys with degrees from funny sounding names universities that oyinbo can't pronounce are been picked and handed free tuition via scholarship by the US, how much more someone that is ready to study hard and has a green card?

You see. I would give you 3 examples in Canada. Here, it is incredibly hard to get a scholarship due to massive competition from around the world and we are are a small country, so most if not all new immigrants intending to further have to get student loans. Student loans are not cheap in Canada. However, someone I know took out a loan for a Bsc Nursing program. She was over 60k in debt after grad in 2015. Interestingly, she got a job straight out of school. With overtime, her last year's earning was around $130k. How did I know how much she earned? When you earn above 50k a year, the government of the province I live in will publish your name on a public document called a sunshine list. Your name and earning for that year will be published.

Another guy I know took out a 30k loan to take a diploma in a community/polytechnic college. He got a job straight after graduation in 2017 and made $80k in his first year without OT i.e atleast $43 bucks an hour starting wage. A friend of mine also took a community college course in power engineering in 2017 with around 50k in student loan. This year, he is already at $80k in sept, and the year is not even over yet. One of the guys I listed up there use to work for a microfinance bank in Nigeria before he relocated. The dude will walk all over lagos looking for clients for a meagre a salary of just 40,000 naira per month. Half of his monthly earning goes on transport fair.

The good thing about student loan. They all have 10 to 15 years to pay back the loan, but they can also pay it back within 2 years without penalty if they decide.

Life is all about choices. These guys did not sit back and moan about how life is tough in North america. Some worked a few years of survival jobs before they said enough and took the bulls by the horn. na money we dey take find money sometimes.

TravelRe: Plan To Evacuate Nigerians From South Africa Suffers Setback Due To Expired Pass by LewinskyMon: 7:38am On Sep 07, 2019
caringsce:
I honestly think this reason is lame, except there’s something they’re not telling us. The people to be evacuated are Nigerians with a Nigerian airline. I don’t get how an expired passport will stop them from flying. The view of the immigration officer on arrival is that you are coming home and as such all you need to do is prove citizenship, which an expired passport does.

CrimeRe: South African Man Lied That This Man Caught With Drug Is A Nigerian (Photos) by LewinskyMon: 6:31pm On Sep 06, 2019
MelesZenawi:
Nigeria, Drug Cartels And Xenophobia In South Africa. THE FACTS.


I have a lot of problem with the authenticity and accuracy of these stories , I'm a graduate of the University of the Witwatersrand, now University of Johannesburg, I am married to a South African, I worked for the African union from inception until 2009, when I decided to relocate, so, from 1996-2009, that would be 13 years of living in South Africa, by virtue of having studied and worked in South Africa and speak Zulu fluently. Also, due to the nature of the work, it afforded me the opportunity to travel extensively within South Africa and Africa generally. So I can conveniently and confidently say that, I know South Africa and its people, very well.

Now, the issues raised in this write up concerning drugs is untrue, yes, some Nigerians are involved in drugs, but they didn't start it nor are they even in the majority, neither are they the kingpins of drugs, but the thing is Nigerians in South Africa are like the children of the Third Reich, damned for what they are and damned for what they're not.

Encapsulating the drug business in South Africa and prostitution, it would be wise to recognise that drug business was going on before the earliest Nigerians settled in SA, in Cape town, gang wars started in Cape flats amongst the colored people long before Nigerians got there, in Durban, there was drug trade by Indians from Pine town to the Promenade long before Nigerians saw the Indian Ocean in Kwazulu Natal,( note Durban is not a capital city like JHB. Pietermaritzburg is the capital city)

Now, in JHB, drug business by Nigerians are heavily situated in places like, Hillbrow, Berea, Yeovil, Orange grove, Ellis park, Rossettenville. These are areas heavily populated by foreigners of diverse origin.
Let me also shine some light on Prostitution before I conclude. Prostitution is a right of passage of 90% of South Africans, white, black, Indian, colored, the remaining 10% are Khoisan. An average South African girl of 15 years already has a child before the family will now aid her to move from the locations to JHB, Durban, Port Elisabeth, East London, Cape town or Tswane, which is by the way, the real name of Pretoria.

Native South Africans are extremely poor and as as a result crime and prostitution thrive in the Locations ( informal settlements) like Soweto, Alexandra, Tembisa, Lenasia and Eldorado park in Gauteng province, with JHB as capital city. Lamontville, port Shepstone, Umlazi, Umtata, Bluff, and other locations spread out in the Zululand, feed the crime and LovePeddler needs of Durban KZN. While in the Cape town is fed by, Gugulethu, Kylitsha, cape flats and neighbouring East London and Port Elizabeth.
The other provinces, like Bloemfontein, Limpopo and basically all of the former Northern Transvaal, Boputhatswana, flock to JHB, supported by migrating prostitutes from Namibian, Zambia, Zimbabwe, Mozambique, Malawi and a smattering handful from Botswana, Swaziland, Lesotho and Angola, not forgetting assassins from Mozambique and Zimbabwe. These completes the Violent crimes and Prostitution ring in South Africa.

Looking at drugs holistically, Nigerians, Tanzanians, Indians, Pakistanis' Italians and the Boer South Africans are indictable here, but in different categories.
The drug business are in three categories:-

1. Importers, ( drugs are not indigenous to South Africa) so they are imported from South America, Asia and Europe to SA. You might be wondering Europe? Yes, Europe,drugs is not restricted to Cocaine and Opium, inclusive also are, Fentanyl, Mandrax,Ecstasy, Acid paper e.t.c these come from Europe, they all find their way to South Africa and somebody brought them into the country and just about 10% of importers are Nigerians, are you now wondering who is then responsible for the remaining 90%? South African whites/Boers, yes most drug imports come from Holland which is the Boers original home. Have you ever wondered why there haven't been and major drug bust in the Airports or anywhere else in South Africa? Simple, its a Cartel, run by Indigenes, the Police, immigration and Customs.

2. These are the middle men, who now buy 50-60-70grammes, break it into 5gs and in turn sell to the third and final group in the drug dealing chain, called " Ndi-Atuke" .

3. Now, the third and final group who take the major risk in the business are the ones who may buy 5 or 10g and cook a part to sell as rocks and the other as powder, this group are the street urchins who market in small scale to whoever can afford it and this group are individuals that cannot afford to be cartels as they are constantly harassed by the Police and the Mafia, to pay protection money.

This third group, some of them team up with pristitutes to bring their customers ( mainly whites) to buy from them. So the prostitutes are already addicts, who are no longer accepted as residents in strip clubs like Summit club, Dorchester and other such clubs that dot the cities of South Africa like a reminder of its immediate gory past, they are the prostitutes and all Pinch sellers are guilty of such association and its not restricted to Nigerians.

Now to the reason why Nigerians are targets for this Xenophobic attacks are two tiered.
1. Once upon a time on Etv South Africa, there was a Talk show named "Third Degree" hosted by an Indian lady who was trying to divert attention of criminal acts from her stock to Nigerians, first of such shows was a Masacre that took place in a gay club called little Caesars, in the ensuing documentary, she blamed it on Nigerians and drugs, but when the case was finally busted, no Nigerian was involved. It was dobe by whites and Indians who hated Homosexuality.

The second documentary of note was the Moodly killing, Moodly, an Indian then a student in the University, reported his white girlfriend missing, and Mrs Pillay of Third degree concocted a story that Nigerians abducted her because of debt from drugs. At the conclusion of the investigation, when the body was found, autopsy indicated that the girl was not a drug user and that Moodley himself strangled and dumped her body before reporting her missing, again, no Nigerian involved.

2.. The second and most probable reason ( which even irritates me) Nigerian drug dealers in Hillbrow are lousy, Infact, if you see them misbehaving in South Africa, you'd think they're in the village and drug sale is a legal business. Others nationals more involved and richer are absolutely living non-descript lives, but their Nigerian counterparts in the lower rung are living flamboyantly with no obvious source of income.

So, in conclusion, Nigerians are not as was described in that write up, but they have simply constituted themselves into a "nuisance" in South Africa by their show-off. If they were the biggest drug dealers in South Africa, they would all be in prison by now. The biggest barons are big South Africans and are known to the government, that's why they are untouchables. Don't regard all their blame-shifting
There are lots of Nigerian professionals living and working in South Africa, even the face of Vodacom the largest telecom service provider is a Nigerian. Many small and medium scale businesses in South Africa are established and run by Nigerians. They create several jobs for South Africans.
There are so many Nigerian Doctors, lecturers, business men , Engineers holding places of pride in the economy and society. These are areas where the citizens don't even have the capacity to cover.
Finally, xenophobia has nothing to do with drugs, but lots to do with envy. They came to loot and kill. Do you fight crime with another crime?

Nigeria can never be good if the only plan is for everyone to leave. The citizens of the countries they are running to didn't leave when it hit them. They stood up and fought the system to make it better. Hong Kong, as nice as it, has recently has her own share of uprising. The citizens challenged the status quo ante until the leaders threw in the towel. The problem with Nigeria is more of selfishness than anything else as there is no other reason why politicians numbering less than 2000 can effectively mess up and control the lives of about 200m people.
