I really must have hurt you so bad you can't even compose your writings. . OK, give us a link which shows Serena Williams claiming to be from south Africa. Just so I will take you seriously. Do it on next post, please.

Nollywood is number 3 in the world as reported by CNN. Why do you claim the world doesn't know about it? Nollywood earned Nigerian accent the 6th best accent in the world by CNN poll 2015. Do you want the proof?

Koffi Anan , former UN Secretary General in January 2015 just before the general elections declared that "the destiny of Africa is in the hands of Nigeria" do you want proof?

The ISS report says Nigerian would emerge the only true African super power

The BBC says Nigeria is the most important African country there is. It even carried out a physical poll count in several African cities to conduct feelers of Nigeria's sole leadership in Africa.


Your own government has been jiltery with retreat and apologies whenever there's a rift with Nigeria. Should I go on?

Nelson Mandela was the last hype south Africa had. He's gone and your country is like any other southern African country looking for relevance and desperately bribing to host a world cup .

The only tourist attraction attracting foreigners to south Africa is Mandela's cell and the scene of Soweto massacre were Zulus were silenced by automatic weapons while they charged half unclad with long spears .

Nigeria's music has traveled the world over as have her home videos.

Don't tell me about Nigerians in south Africa. Your government officially asked for professionals in 1994 to feel up government and public vacancies Zulus were incompetent to handle. Later waves of few criminal element travelled to S.A in grand collabo with their host/resident Zulu criminals to turn your whole cities into one massive junk yard.

Nigerians are the most educated people in the United States, more educated than the Americans. Nigeria remains the only black Africa to win the miss world beauty pageant.

South Africa is a synonym for xenophobia, inequality and HIV.

South Africa remains the only country several African countries have protested against, rebuked and threatened to sever relationship with simultaneously in Africa. What a shame.

I dont know of any African country that has ever threatened south Africa instead all these countries grow their relationship with SA day by day thats why a certain president of a certain west African country punished his officials who tried to show some artificial muscles by recalling two diplomats from Pretoria,the president knew the consequences of messing up his country relationship with SA to an extent that SA can easily confiscate his country oil money without challenge...only fools like you can be fooled by statements made by people on a particular context...recently president Obama said,Lesotho has a great potential to lead Africa...finally when south Africa made the call for professionals,she wanted to absorb people who would play a meaningful role in the economy not the barbers and shoe repairers...

Nice effort but xenophobia is south Africa's exclusive preserve. Do not pass it to me.

Your prolong stay here is how much insecure and little Nigeria makes you feel.

xenophobia vs tribalism...

if you know how internet works you would understand my presence,am neither seeking refuge nor asylum as it is the case with your fellow country men in SA..keep your forum and topics national,nobody will bother you

lezz:
I wasn't seeking your approval or validation , you pap guzzling nitwit.

The insults are just my way of showing how much I care less about south Africa. It doesn't bother me what you think or make of them.

the insults show how much you fear south Africa...keep on throwing them

lezz:
who cares what you think? Your opinion doesn't count.

throwing insults in every comment does not make you sound relevant but exposes your immaturity

lezz:
you're always so emotional. The world always group north Africa with the middle east, punk .

Why the fvck do you think the term "sub Sahara" Africa has been popularised to refer tothe rest of Africa excluding north Africa.

Segregating south Africa by settlers and race has been the world's favourite topic. Until zulus manage to carve out a heritage and legacy in south Africa for themselves, it is going to stay that way. That is why south Africa has suffered legitimacy problems in Africa. The world still sees the foundation of south Africa as a white man's heritage with black having no input whatsoever. They have even managed to convince you that you're settlers in Africa

The bottom line is that no Zulu has a bragging right in south Africa yet. There's still segregation in SA. With Orania and kleinfontein being an all white settlements. Africa is a continent and a people. Every black man that works the face of the earth is African. Egyptians are in Africa but they would be refered to as Arabs. Your Boers are just that -Boers/Afrikaners or white people. And the world asks, where is an African country that have carved up his technology, infrastructure and economy without the west? Nigeria has answered the naysayers.

Nigeria is Africa's biggest and indigenous country with every tribe contributing to the heritage and foundation of this country. And the world awaits us for a true African giant to rice and take its place like China, Japan and Korea have done it for the orient . Saudi Arabia , Egypt and UAE have done for Arabs.

When the BBC calls Nigeria Africa's most important country they knew very much about your stock exchange and your infrastructure. They know it won't count for you against us..

you try hard to make yourself relevant but you are not...

so nice to see a Zulu lamenting on tribal/ethnic slur . What happened to flat Igbo head, isn't it fashionable anymore? I just gave you hard facts mixed with ethnic flavour and you go all girly on me like a fággy fàggót

Resolved: white females have more millionaires than Zulus in South Africa;

Zulus are 90 % of the population yet amount to less than 16% of total millionaires in S.A

Zulus can't only boast of one billlionaire on earth

Feel free to submit a contrary view, Zulu.

you know very well that your neighbors are the ones calling you flat..heads...in SA we don't know who is igbo or Yoruba,I personally learnt it here...you are all Kwerekweres

ddami:
Mduza, you are violating my rule "its a curse to be a Nigerian""- RED ALERT...
I will tell you about MAKOKO - Its a local govt. in Lagos, it's a lagoon,more than half of those living there are migrants like Egun,Niger,they build wooden houses,their major occupation is fishing,means of transportation canoe, most of them are poor, there is already a proposal to erect good buildings there at the waterfront..


Now tell me about Khayelisha..
Meanwhile "its a blessing to be a Nigerian", - says ddami who is an amaZing Nigerian...

its a township located in the western cape,it is surrounded by some informal settlements created by laborers (foreigners included) who want to be close to their work environment

*Our Country men in S.a are a minute percent of our pop... you can't even compare to those in the U.S and U.K.. You will always find a Nigerian in most countries of the world...

Nigerian government does not own any mall,I notice you have no idea of what am talking about...you can't even comprehend what am saying,I never said your malls are owned by south Africa but am saying your malls are owned by south African companies..go and figure out..dont be confused by the names given to those malls,those are your malls built for you in your country ..but owned by foreigners....SAns..Nigerians knew nothing about malls until south Africans invaded your land...some of your so called malls are just mere shopping centers in an south African standard...

lezz:
nice point. Only problem is it doesn't apply: Zulus don't have enough to go näked about.

Nigerian mentality of believing that its only them entitled for great things...when they realized that their counterparts in other countries are doing much better,they show their frustration by throwing insults everywhere..in this instance,nairaland forum is a good example

tonychristopher:
I was in south Africa last month

elaborate....

tonychristopher:
thank lord you said they use Nigerians as mirrows or fronts atlease they respect Nigerian but in south Africa those zulu guys are suffering ..their land taken and used as conservation they can't even hunt there ...they will be used as cheap mine workers and they keep crying daily that foreigners have taken over

the truth is black south African are plain lazy ...take it or leave it

so you think every black south African is a miner?dont you think that if black south Africans were suffering ,would have been roaming your streets for better life..the fact that they don't flock to other countries like Nigerians tells a good story of good life..furthermore dont you think that people in Mokoko need land?make research about south African world class companies like Eskom,sasol,transnet,prasa etc..you will see that its a curse to be Nigerian

tonychristopher:
the last time I checked it was your lazy zulu that were crying that foreigners are taking over the economy and these guys that mine keep weeping

do you know that innosson is the only that black that have a vehicle building firm he is a Nigerian

do you know the only rolls Royce franchise is a Nigeria
do you know that the biggest black ICT firm cwg in Africa is a Nigerian

NB.. EKO Atlantic Does Not Belong To The Europeans... its not even 4 Federal Govt. it is For Lagos State govt an initiative of 2 former governors ask google...

West African girl,do your patriotism a favour by researching companies owning your malls,you will know why your country men living in SA are killing each other for south African citizenship...note that some of your so called malls are in a standard to be refer as shopping centres..

lezz:
Eko Atlantic city is a tinubu/ fashola project with foreign investment partnership. Every last molecule of you are made of mediocrity morphing into a brainless Zulu.

Zulu owns nothing, does nothing and means nothing. You have only one billionaire on earth despite being 90% of the population.

Zulus are a reference point on inequality.

south African millionaires and billionaires don't go around naked to show their wealth...

lezz:
what oil is owned by the British? You mean shell? It's the royal dutch company and it operates in Nigeria in same condition as it operates in the US- under licence.

The shopping mall are all DFI as our middle class is growing faster and your government is arm twisting these giant malls to employ half literate Zulus like you. Nigeria is only a breath of fresh air to them.

Your moniker is a typical Zulu style; ugly-sounding and unimaginative

As female Whites have even out number Zulus in millionaire rankings in south Africa, so is a young Nigerian Lady @ddami schooling you here with facts.

friendly advice:if you have got a tendency of using ethnicity to convey your message,dont play that game with me...am neither igbo nor Yoruba...the entire comment of yours clearly shows that you live in the imaginary world therefore its unnecessary to counter your wishful fantasies

ddami:
WTF... Red Altert...

""NIGERIANS OWN NOTHING'' - Guy you are Violating my RULE...

tell me one thing that Nigerians own,even your oil is still under control of the British,your shopping malls are owned by south Africans....the only thing that you can boost of is cement....Eko Atlantic belongs to the Europeans,those Nigerian names are just mirrors

lezz:
Nigerians own their land, run their economy, and has the highest middle class in Africa.

South Africa on the other hand has its economy run by the 7% European settlers, have their lands own by whites and is one of the most unequal countries in the world.

I project the realities of your country to you by echoing your Julius Mal emo, former ANC youth leader.

Nigerians own nothing..Europeans are using your land to build projects like eko Atlantic while you people glue on each other like termites in Mokoko....you can scream on top of your voice about owning the economy but the true reflection on the ground is different...people investing in your country are the ones owning your economy,figure out who they are

lezz:
being paid what? Their lands and resources are taken and they are played what?

taken to where?

there are no plantations anymore. Modern slavery has evolved into many forms of descrimination which marked the apartheid era of south Africa as recent as 1994.

And lo, apartheid still exists in different shades of economic and social structures. You know this.

you are one of my favorite members of this forum...due to the fact that you indirectly tell the state affairs of your country and its history projecting them on SA...

lezz:
Olodo, the onus is on you not me.

rubbish

lezz:
do you want me to your homework for you? I just gave you 89 murders per day in south Africa and Interpol says it's even higher than that but your crooked government says it is 55.

stop beating around the bush and tell us your country stats...

lezz:
89 murders for S.A . in a day. Now don't be lazy , do your homework or beat it.

I know you can't give me your country stats,the only thing you are capable of is to spew rubbish about a country you know nothing about

lezz:
because the numbers are lower than yours, you will always dig up excuses to delude yourself.
You can't wish your crime and homicide stats away.

Aren't you the Zulu who claimed to have lived in Enugu?

let me hear those numbers?

lezz:
feel free to disprove my assertions with a credible number.

does Nigeria divulge her crime stats ?or do you people in Nigeria compile stats of anything?

lezz:
citation please.

you will get it from Jonathan himself the time he decides to speak about his demise...

lezz:
89 murders a day in south Africa. We don't come close even with boko haram.

surely you don't know what's happening in your own land because your eyes are zoomed on SA....

Bros, abeg, we no be mate in any sphere of human awareness!!! Oya read:[b] A South African newspaper, The Mail & Guardian, reported on Friday that South Africa had begun to work out the process of returning more than R100-million in Nigerian money that it confiscated last year, or clearing the way to sell arms to the West African country.
The Mail and Guardian through diplomatic sources informed that South Africa has begun talks to work out a process to return the money in an effort to start off on a clean slate with the recently elected government of the Nigerian president-elect, Muhammadu Buhari.
South African law enforcement agencies seized $15-million in two batches: $5.7-million that had been wired to Standard Bank and $9.3-million in cash, which was confiscated. It was brought into the country through Lanseria airport in Johannesburg in three suitcases by a delegation said to represent the Nigerian government. In both cases, the money was suspected to be for illegal use.

*President Zuma
Now South Africa wants to use the money to extend an olive branch to Buhari’s government and mend relations between the two countries, which became strained during the tenure of outgoing president Goodluck Jonathan.
“The positive thing about [Buhari] is that one of the people who supported him is Atiku Abubakar. That makes him our man and he will automatically work well with [President Jacob] Zuma,” a government source said.
Close connection
Abubakar is close to Zuma. He was Nigeria’s vice president during the presidency of Olusegun Obasanjo, at the time when Zuma was Thabo Mbeki’s deputy.
“Also, this man [Buhari] is a [retired] military general. It is true that the military needs some beefing up to fight Boko Haram and we should help,” the source added.
So how will Nigeria know that it stands to benefit from an otherwise controversial transaction that had exacerbated tensions between the two countries?
Explained the government source: “Diplomatically you send a signal. Obviously they will have to make a request once they receive a positive signal, but the request will just be an official step to finalising the transaction.”
Buhari is due to take over the leadership of the country after winning the recent elections. Formal talks have not yet begun but South Africa has apparently started sending “positive signals” through its diplomats in Nigeria and to the Nigerian embassy in Pretoria.
Diplomatically favourable
To ensure that the process of returning the money or regularising the sale of arms looks as clean as possible, the Hawks investigation will continue, the source said, but will be managed politically to reach a conclusion that is diplomatically favourable.
“One way is to make the investigators say: ‘Yes, a law has been broken, but it’s true that the government [of Nigeria] is the owner of that money and genuinely wanted to buy arms legally. They might have flouted the rules, but it’s a genuine transaction.’ [We will say] this money does not come from dirty hands or rebels or arms dealers,” the source said.
“We will find a way to regularise the transaction and either return the money or give them arms.”
Nigeria wanted to buy arms such as helicopters and ammunition to strengthen its fight against Islamic extremist group Boko Haram.
Last year, the M&G reported that the head of the national conventional arms control committee, Jeff Radebe, who is also the minister in the presidency, was blamed by his colleagues in government for taking a unilateral decision to try to regularise the sale of arms to Nigeria to facilitate the release of bodies of South Africans who were killed when the TB Joshua church building collapsed in Nigeria.
At the time, Radebe denied it and said the committee had met in October and decided to propose unlocking the Nigerian arms trade.
‘Bona fide error’
The M&G quoted from two letters that Radebe had written to JP “Torie” Pretorius of the Hawks and Dumisani Dladla, the head of the arms control committee’s secretariat, in which he said the failed attempt on September 5 to pay an arms dealer in South Africa “was, in fact, a legitimate requirement from the government of Nigeria”. “Although the required administrative processes were not adhered to at the time, the government of South Africa deems it a bona fide error,” he wrote.
This week a government source told the M&G: “What Jeff did may have been unilateral, but it is now an avenue that South Africa is willing to explore. Even when we were doing damage control after your story, the discussion centred around how we can get a positive outcome out of this.”
The committee apparently met after the article was published in November last year and decided to use the return of the money or the sale of arms to appease the new government of Nigeria after the elections.
“After the story, they had to regroup and say: ‘How do we deal with this situation?’ You cannot let it hang forever; you must find a way to conclude it in a way that will satisfy both sides,” the source said.
Zuma has apparently been briefed by ministers who serve on the committee and has warmed to the idea. Efforts to get comment from Zuma’s spokesperson Mac Maharaj and from Radebe were unsuccessful.
Improved relations
Relations between Nigeria and South Africa have not been at their best, particularly between the Zuma and Jonathan administrations.
“[By returning this money] you get friendship, loyalty and an opportunity where he [Buhari] is willing to work with us to lead the continent and speak with one voice.
“Instead of Nigeria second-guessing us all the time, we will compare notes and stop fighting for things like the United Nations Security Council seat that’s not even permanent,” the source said.
“Nigeria is a strategic country that South Africa cannot ignore. It’s a big market. It’s possible South African companies make more money in Nigeria than in South Africa.”
When Buhari took on Jonathan in last month’s elections, Pretoria was already positioning itself for refreshed relations with Abuja.[/b]

your APC has once issued a statement...We shall work with south Africa to bring Jonathan down..
