I would really love a faceoff between nigeria and either of Ghana or south Africa. Couldn't care how and where it goes..
Those countries has proven to be a pain in our as$ and I would love we settle our beef squarely at a circled battle ground economically or all out warfare.

Forget ffk and E-Warriors..
This is very sad. So, you and FFK, your idol, want to go to war with my country? Ignorance will kill both of you. Don't you know you've already won. We've surrendered.
Our President has already apologised to your nation even though no Nigerian was killed but 10 South Africans were murdered, starting with the taxi driver who was was shot to death by a Nigerian drug dealer.
I can't even talk about the children who are turned into drug addicts or kidnapped and turned into sex slaves or drug mules your SA based criminals. We don't want a war with Nigeria or any country for that matter.
Please save your bullets and hatred for Boko Haram and Fulani Herdsmen. They rape, maim, literally slaughter captured Nigerian civilians and soldiers with daggers to the throat, ike goats and have massacred tens of thousands of Nigerian civilians and soldiers.
My people, the South Africans, have never killed or attacked a Nigerian man, woman or child during a spate of violence. Even your diplomats have told you, time without number, that apart from a few that have died in police custody, Nigerian cultists and criminals are killing each other in our country but you prefer to believe unsubstantiated allegations. It's clear that the truth is unpalatable and it hurts. So you'd rather believe fiction instead of facts.

Seems you don't know that there are many kids on this platform. Since early this month, many of South Africa newspapers have joined the likes of CNN and BBC in focusing on bad news about Nigeria ��. I'm 100% sure this rubbish report was compiled somewhere in Johannesburg.
You, yourself are reasoning like a child. How can you even imagine such a thing?
Even then, what has a report that Nigeria or SA is the richest on the continent ever done for the majority of citizens in our two countries? Please start thinking like an adult.
Politics / Re: Why Nigeria Cannot Afford A Stand-Off With South Africa By Kakanda (Al-jazeera) by Miaraka: 10:25pm On Sep 14, 2019
You guys appear to be itching for war with my country. You want a stand-off. Why should there be a stand-off? Shouldn't our two countries be consulting on how to deal with the criminality that is inimical to our bilateral relations?
You should be asking yourself why a much bigger number, at least 1, ,5 million won't take the offer to go back home. For your information, the majority of Nigerians here are focused on their studies, work, legitimate business, etc. They are quietly doing their thing and don't mix with the wicked and loud ones who are into drug and human trafficking even under age girls and boys (3 upwards). How can you be proud of such nonsense and wish your government could do something horrible to our country.?
There's no shortage of evidence against your criminals. Everything is recorded by our police - videos, documents, etc. The day you decide to take this matter to the ICJ or some international tribunal, you'll suffer a lifetime national shock and embarrassment.
The South Africans who were involved in the recent violence don't even reach 5000 out of a nation of at least 55m. Are you aware that some foreigners were also involved in the burning and looting? Strange, isn't it? What about the fact that 90% of those arrested don't have a home address? Ofcourse you know nothing about that. You also don't know that there are South Africans who fought and defended foreigners against criminals (at least one of them was arrested by the police because when the mob overpowered him, he decided to use his gun and killed at least one person).Most people don't know and it doesn't make sense. It won't make sense to yo too as long as you remain obsessed with the stupid idea that black South Africans hate other black people.
Perhaps the day hear a Nigerian telling you he was mugged by another foreigner and the Nigerian killers of other Nigerians tell you themselves that most of their compatriots who were killed here were actually killed by them, your brain will wake up.

Do you think it's only igbos that are been killed in South Africa, sense is very far from you.
Please stop suggesting that all 50 million black South Africans have nothing else to do other than to hunt Nigerians for extrajudicial killing.
No Nigerian has ever died during a spate of violance in this country. Even diring the recent spate of violance which was triggered by the murder of a South African taxi driver, no Nigerian was killed. 10 South Africans and 2 Zimbabweans died.
Ask the Nigerian Consul General, the Ambassador or any Nigerian who knows what is happening. They will tell you that most Nigerians who die here on a regular basis are killed by Nigerian cultists and criminals. Some, like some locals and other Africans, died in police custody. The Independent Police Investigations Directorate is investigating those cases and some cases are already subjudice (being decided in a court). The case of the late Ms Ndubuisi can't be investigated by the IPID because she didn't die in custody of the police and so far, there's no sign anywhere that they could even have been involved.
It's a very rare case that, in my view, will need more than 100 % collaboration of the very best brains and other resources our two countries have at their disposal.

who started the violence, foreigners or South Africans?.
A Nig


Evidences proved South Africans started it. Listen to your president and you deputy police Chief. They instigated anti-immigrants attacks on fellow Africa because of their hate speech.


Let me underline your lies. @first underlined this is contrary to what we watched. We saw your police shooting immigrants another one where officers were laughing at burning immigrants. "They doing their job", right?. Keep lying.

We have watched different South African women told us the truth and I believe there are different issues as to why South African men are angry at foreigners especially Nigerians. They are basically economy and social issues because Nigerians are handsome, sweet-talkers, spendthrifts and very caring for SA women.

https://m.facebook.com/story.php?story_fbid=10213866449567135&id=1585105263&fs=0&focus_composer=0



I'm not gonna argue whether they are lenient or not. Fact is, recent attacks on immigrants in SA were instigated by SA authority which makes it a systematic attack on fellow black people. We have also watched a SA guy who issued series of threats against all black people from other African countries. What more evidence do you want?. I posted his screenshot on this platform before. Yesterday again he issued another threats to sabotage and kill black people trying to exit the country.

He said "we (SA people) do not want immigrants from African countries."

If your police are that good they would do brilliant intelligent network and gather intelligence on the guy and his other thugs and have them arrested. But no, they did nothing. This brings us back to what your former White president said that Black people have no brain to govern themselves.

I also realized you guys are very hateful towards your fellow Africans which means SA are rascists.

are you South Africa?.

You sound so insecure. If South African govt has standard justice system or good authority it would go after criminals and put them in jail regardless where they come from. But what happened exposes South Africa lack of efficient governance. In the West there are multicultural, multinationality and they manage everyone. You commit crime they come after you. Why can't black people govt do the same without saying it is xyz countries destroying our country?..

The answer to that is....
Yes. I'm South African. Not at all insecure. Only saying you're not the only ones who've suffered as a result of the recent violence. We've suffered more. Both in terms of property and lives. If you demand compensation, we can demand more. After all, it is your people who started the violence. Not our people.
Our police know how to do their job. This is not the West. Had they not been cautious, we could have lost many more lives, the whole of SA would still be on fire and our government removed from power by the masses. When our people are angry, you can't stop them with teargas and gunfire.
The police were very linient for the past 25 years because they were ordered to relax controls for Africans because they supported us during the struggle. After what happened, they'll have to up their game. They'll have to be ruthlessly efficient.
Crime / Re: Ghana Named The Second Most Corrupt Country In Africa Followed South Africa by Miaraka: 7:08pm On Sep 10, 2019

#Whatsapptv

A report by the Transparency International (TI) has said Ghana has been rated as the second most corrupt country in Africa, followed by Nigeria, with South Africa perceived as the most corrupt nation on the continent.

The Corruption Perception Index (CPI) noted about 71 per cent of people living in Ghana saying corruption had increased over the last 12 months.

The report revealed how people on the continent perceived their countries as far as corruption was concerned and what their leaders were doing to minimise the unpleasant act.

It noted that the act of corruption was so endemic that all the respondents wished that the leaders in their various countries would acted swiftly to end the canker.

Most governments across Africa were also seen as failing in their duty to stop the abuse of power, bribery and secret deals.
The majority (58 per cent) of Africans in the surveyed countries said corruption had increased over the past 12 months.
Congratulations to Transparency International for discovering a very smart way of encouraging Nigeria to pull up its socks!
I wish Nigeria the very best in its efforts to wriggle itself out of the quagmire of corruption.

Nigerians, why are you such alarmists? This is not Sambisa Forest or Fulani herdsmen hunting ground. No one has plans to ambush innocent people, going back to their beloved motherland, Nigeria.
You really are alarmists and drama queens and kings. No wonder you are failing to wipe out Boko Haram. Every little thing, "They are killing us! Call Buhari, they are killing us!" Your drug dealers kill an innocent taxi driver, thereby causing violence which results in 10 South Africans dead and only 2 foreigners dead. Not even 1 of the dead is Nigerian.
You demand compensation for businesses that were looted and got burnt down, something which was triggered by your drug dealing criminals. Are you serious?
Will you compensate the South Africans whose businesses also got looted and burnt down? You should compensate your people. We'll compensate our own. You should also compensate us for all the South Africans who died, here or abroad, because of the criminal activities of Nigerians - human trafficking, fraud, murder, tricking school children into drug addiction, forcing other people's children to be prostitutes, etc., etc.,

Don't you worry we'll take good care of the remaining 1 360 000 many of whom are not registered with the Nigerian High Commission and are either too busy enjoying themselves while doing great and wonderful things for themselves, Nigeria and their host country or busy with their criminal ways to care about returning home.

Politics / Re: I Have Lived In South Africa For Almost 20 Years. Hear Is My Experience by Miaraka: 6:22am On Sep 06, 2019
anago40:
I know the SA thing is paining you as you say, also me too. But please hear my perspective:

I have lived in SA for almost 20 years.

What you see as pure xenophobia is actually community Vigilantism gone wrong or hijacked by criminals.

Some of the shops looted and destroyed are actually covers for a serious crime.

Some of our brothers take over entire areas and turn them into drug markets. But because the law in SA does not allow police to arrest criminals unless with evidence or unless shot at, so what happens is the drug guys hide these drugs in shops, restaurants etc and use as a face.
There are up to 30 public "drug" markets in Joburg alone. These are areas where 50 to 200 Nigerians converge on street corners to sell drugs. That's just in Johannesburg, and excludes other places.
The community knows and they try to inform the police. Sometimes these guys get arrested and bribe their way out when it fails the community takes laws into their hands.

Nigerians are not being targetted per se. The target is street drug dealers and yahoo boys who are mostly Nigerian.

Personally, in an area of Johannesburg, some years ago, drug dealers almost took over my property. We bought it and in the process of renovation, they invaded it and turned it into a drug hotel. It took God to evict them without being killed. It was led by Nigerians. In that property, there were families with women and children.

One strategy of selling drugs is to befriend young secondary school.Girls and introduce them. They get hooked and they start stealing and prostitution to feed the habit. Soon the entire area deteriorates.
Now, why I am sharing this with you is that the drug dealers are distracting attention. They are trying to make the Nigerian Government arise in anger and defend "Nigerians" ie defend drug dealers. if they succeed, they'd have staged a powerful coup. They'd have entered an official mafioso level, protected by Government.

Please see the article below: The Nigeria ambassador to SA said the majority of killings are perpetrated by fellow Nigerians. It's a drug turf war. he is right. I know some who've been killed.

So how can we accuse others of killing us when we are perpetrating it?

Those videos and pictures circulating of Nigerians in SA- how is it that we are shown only in the light of guys on the street? I know top Robotics engineers in SA, I know people in Top IT firms, developers, in Amazon, Google etc, I know top bankers, property company owners, many doctors, Superintendent of hospitals, professors, Pastors, etc.

So in summary here are my thoughts

- A vast majority of upright Nigerians in SA are very comfortable. They are doctors, teachers, business owners, etc. If we don't get the right story, we can set off a diplomatic war, everything collapses and these guys become targets. Currently, they are not being targetted by anyone. many are married to South Africans. Some head Government agencies and private companies.

- Yes, there are some xenophobic South Africans, but just like we fought against stigmatizing Fulani, we must also fight against stigmatizing South Africans. There are VERY many good South Africans, who don't buy into any form of oppression. Let us encourage our government to join with the South African Government and carry out a security raid on drug dealers.

If the Government announces this, you will see they will flee because they'll know the cover is blown! xenophobic attacks will reduce 95%.

The biggest donation event in the history of SA was in 2007 when people gave to victims of xenophobic attacks. The amount given was a record. It shows that the nation is not buying into that mindset.

- Please use your powerful platform to create a voice for good Nigerians in SA. You will be surprised. Many are afraid to talk because even Nigerian organizations in SA are infiltrated and even controlled by drug dealers and kingpins. No one wants to be killed. These guys are very powerful.



- Communities fighting to save themselves should not be hushed but helped to do it in a better way. Not jungle justice.
- Yes the SA Government must not also be left without responsibility in the matter, they should be tasked to step up their game too. While Nigeria targets drug dealers and yahoo buys, South Africa should target miscreants and criminals in a joint operation. SA Government also needs to purge bad eggs in its police force who are compromised. It Also needs to take its own share of blame for unemployment, poverty and economic challenges and social issues that allow drugs to be demanded.

I close with a prophecy by Pa Elton

"Africa is like a gun, Nigeria is like a trigger, South Africa is like a barrel

South Africa will be free. It will partner with Nigeria.

When that happens, Africa will arise and lead the world in many ways."

This prophecy was given in the hight of apartheid when it seemed impossible. Today it is half done South Africa has more bilateral agreements with Nigeria than any other nation on earth. We MUST NOT allow miscreants and criminals on both sides to hinder it, because if our national relationship fails, Africa will fail.

This is Buhari's "Mandela" moment. Will he rise up and shake off the pain and anger and mobilize Africa to unify or will he take a position that reverses the building of unity? I think he will do the right thing by God's grace, but I also believe publicizing the truth will help him and citizens.

I am open to discuss with you further on this matter, and if you feel the need to publish the above anonymously, please feel free. And if you want to do a tour to SA, I'll host you and we can go out and do a strategic mapping. I'll show you things that will make you see another perspective.
https://allafrica.com/stories/201808140022.html
God of Mercy, thank you for this truthful Nigerian. May you enable the governments of Nigeria and SA to develop a great and effective partnership for peace, progress and development. Expose the evil ones who deliberately created a toxic atmosphere and set out to ensure that Buhari does not succeed in building a great partnership with SA and frustrate their wicked machinations against the peoples and governments of Nigeria and South Africa. Paralyse, neutralise and obliterate them, in Jesus' Name!

Stop posting photos or videos which have nothing to do with you. Only one foreigner, a Mozambican, was burnt alive. Everybody else who has ever been burnt alive was South African and that was during the struggle against apartheid for being traitors and nowadays for crimes such as rape and murder when the police are not around. Please respect yourselves. Maybe our government should share with the world evidence of the crimes that your cultists and criminals commit in this country, including killing your own people and blaming it on so-called South African xenophobia.

My profound condolences to you, Madam. No Nigerian has been or has ever been killed during a spate of violence in this country. It's only a South African taxi driver who was shot dead by a foreign drug dealer whose nationality hasn't been revealed to the public. It's the taxi drivers vengeance that has plunged parts of Jo'burg and Pretoria into turmoil. So, rest assured that your cousin didn't die for being Nigerian. Besides, if he was killed by SAs, I know how your countrymen would have loved to announce the cruelty of SAs. Their reluctance to tell you means that it's something they know they cannot pin on SAs, stuff which only Nigerians can do.
I wish other Nigerians who are not cultists or criminals could tell the story of their lives in this country. I'm sure they'd telll you that it's not home but it's certainly not hell on earth. In fact, I know that some would tell you that the only thing they miss about home is their mother's cooking.

Nigerians are criminals all over the world even in America 75% of Nigerians have committed internet fraud in the last 10 years. South Africans are fighting a holy war against Nigerian criminals which one to destroy their country. I support the South African people 1000% for slaughtering Nigerians. It is better to kill Nigerians now before they destroy your country or to wait for your country to be destroyed then you will be killed

First of all, please don't involve all South Africans and all Nigerians in this matter. The majority of South Africans and .Nigerians who live in this country are not involved. They"re going about minding thei own business. This is a problem between a few wicked foreign nationals and a few wicked SAs. Other South Africans you see on TV are just curious onlookers or those who've been persuaded or even paid by a few wicked SAs to participate in the looting and burning. This happens even among SAs nowadays because of a serious problem of unemployment and the wickedness of capitalism. If you ask them why they are looting they are likely to tell you that they were paid to do so or give you some stupid reason like "I don't know."
There's no stupid bloody "holy war" here. This shameful nonsense was sparked by the killing of a SA taxi driver by a drug dealer whom the taxi drivers say is Nigerian but Nigerian thugs say is Tanzanian. As for the police, they've deliberatly not divulged the nationality of the murderer.
Further to that, you need to know that it happened in two very small parts of Johannesburg and Pretoria. I live here in Johannesburg but I couldn't see or hear anything. Imagine being on Victoria Island and people are rioting in a small part of Surulere or Festac. Surely it wouldn't be correct to say that the whole of Nigeria and all Nigerians are involved.
When we were in exile, our liberation movement made it clear to us that we had a duty to obey the laws of our host countries and that if we were to be arrested for committing any crime, they would let the law take its course.
I'm yet to hear a Nigerian leader say that. You blame the host countries. You don't even acknowledge that your criminals are committing in other countries some of the most horrenders crimes this world has ever known.

Please don't say "Nigerians in South Africa." You need to be specific. There are two main groups - criminals and the silent ones who don't cause any trouble but are a blessing to this country. Even with South Africans, you have to be specific. There are criminals and the majority who are victims of crime caused by local and foreign criminals. Don't allow yourself to be mobilised to suport the evil activities of Nigerian criminals and cultists in SA.

There's no Nigerian or other foreign family who's ever been lynched or threatened with such an atrocity. We are not the savages you think we are. A South African taxi driver was shot and killed by a foreign drug dealer last week. About two or three weeks ago, SA policemen were injured by foreign nationals who were armed with rocks and guns. The police retreated without opening fire on the immigrants, thereby averting a tragedy.
There's no shortage of evidence to prove that South Africans don't have to do as much before the police kill them. Despite this first class treatment, your countrymen are complaining. Our Minister of Police says that what is happening is criminality and they will deal with it. Already, some looters and other rioters have been arrested.

There's no such thing. The Nigerian High Commission has not been set ablaze and is not situated in the area that has been shown on youtube. Somebody must stop this nonsense before it's too late.
Nigerian brothel owners, fraudsters, kidnapers, drug and human traffickers are doing a good job of whipping up Nigerian national support for their nefarious business. They've taken their criminal expertise to the highest and very dangerous level.
These thugs are now using the former apartheid regime's tactics. I'm beginning to think that they could be working with or on the advise of former apartheid regime operatives with a view to damage Nigeria South Africa bilateral relations.
This is likely to prompt our security forces to adopt drastic measures which, unfortunately, could affect innocent people. Hitherto, they've been very reserved and acting like ladies and gentlemen, even under extreme provocation. They've even allowed foreign criminals to assault them and this is something that has deeply hurt most South Africans, including myself..

You are supposed to do much better than us, black South Africans, in practically every aspect of human endeavour because you've been independent since 1960 and we only received something similar only 25 years ago.
We can do much better than you and the white South Africans that you and some of your compatriots love so much,. After all, we fought and defeated what was regarded as one of the most ruthless and powerful regimes the world has ever known. We were poisoned, infected with HIV AIDS, massacred, tortured, etc. Despite all that, we fought ike you can't be expected to imagine. Even our own children find it very difficult to imagine how we succeeded because all the powerful western goverments were against us, training and arming the whites and calling us terrorists.
So, fellow black African, when you and your compatriots insult us and saying we are xenophobic, lazy, an HIV AIDS infested who are nothing without whites, I just wonder if you know what you're talking about.

Now, that sounds like the real xenophobia, hating a whole nation because some of your drug dealers and cultists leave Nigeria to come here and kill other Nigerians. I'm planning to visit Nigeria soon. Please tell me where we can meet so that you can carry out your rip assault on me. I prefer Surulere in Lagos.

My people if South Africa is too risky to live, please relocate to another country or return home. I don't want to sound tribalistic, but to be honest Igbo's are too rugged. A typical Yoruba man won't even wait to see what is chasing him before running. 95% of these xenophobic attack victims are Igbo's. Are there no Yoruba/Hausa in SA?
It doesn't make sense that most of you Nigerians on this platform believe that all South Africans are xenophobic. When a small group of SA taxi drivers riot in response to the killing of their colleague by a drug dealer you accuse them and all of us being xenophobic. What about the Nigeran or Tanzanian killer? Is he also a xenophobe or it's only South Africans who are capable of being xenophobes?
When Nigerian criminals and cultists kill other Nigerians, you blame and accuse us of xenophobia.
It has been established by our law enforcement authorities that most of the Nigerians who were killed here were killed by their countrymen. Your own diplomats have informed you about this but you keep insisting that they are killed by South Africans.
Sorry, Sir but this particular group of your compatriots is out of order. I know normal Nigerians, Igbos and Yorubas, who are like other humans elsewhere in the world. They would never shoot and kill a taxi driver, as alleged, and then threaten, "We'll kill you," when his colleagues protest and end up destroying the property of those they believe are responsible for the death of their colleague and drug use by an increasing number of our youth. They would also not attack our police as they try to stop the taxi drivers from the breaking the law. Why would a normal person antagonise the only people in South Africa who have the legal responsibility and capacity to protect them.
In case you're not aware, the taxi drivers have been engaged in an anti drug campaign for several months. They've been focusing their campaign on SA drug users but when they demanded that one of the dealers known to them should stop, he killed their colleague.
Nigerians who are threatening to kill South Africans should go back home and fight Boko Haram. Those who want to study, work, engage in legitimate business and other forms and aspects of human endeavour should remain and help us to build this country as they take care of their own personal and family needs.

The earlier Nigerians start treating South Africans the way they treat us, they will realise that nobody has monopoly of Violence.
Which Nigerians and which South Africans are you talking about? Unrest taking place in Sunnyside, a suburb of our political capital, Pretoria, is between Pretoria mini bus taxi drivers and drug dealers who are mainly from your country and local drug users. It was sparked by the shooting to death of a Pretoria mini bus taxi driver by a foreign drug dealer. Nigerians say he's Tanzanian but witnesses who probably don't know the difference between Nigerians and Tanzanians, say that he's Nigerian.
The rest of Pretoria and South Africa is peaceful. For example, I was with Nigerians in the Randburg central business district during the day. They are okay. They didn"t come here to engage in fraud, human and drug trafficking, etc. They're enjoying their stay here. They are students, company executives, researchers, housewives, medical doctors, men and women of God, owners of Nigerian food restaurants, Nigerian foodstuff shops, dressmakers, etc and no one disturbs them. Here, Nigerian businesses are located close to and even at one of the biggest taxi ranks but it's peaceful.
Please note that I'm not allerging that all your countrymen who live and do business in Sunnyside are criminals.but rape, murder, drug trafficking in Sunnyside is real and rife there than in other parts of Pretoria.
Taxi drivers have been actively fighting drug use among our youth for many months now. There was no unrest and no one was killed. If their colleague hadn't been killed they wouldn't have rioted.
This is not xenophobia. If it was xenophobia, all South Africans would refuse to have anything to do with your people. Even patients would refuse to be treated by Nigerian doctors. The word "xenophobia" may make you feel better about your countrymen who're engaged in crime in this country but it won't change the fact that your criminals have denigrated the image of your populous nation here and elsewhere in the world. I hope you're aware of this week's reports about Nigerian criminals in Saudi Arabia and the US. Very sad.
The governments and peoples of Nigeria and South Africa should work together to identify and isolate criminals, thereby make it very difficult, if not impossible for them to ply their trade.

What loopholes.
The problems of that shithole is more than just loopholes man
Its total and absolute chaos.

The only solution to that dump is if one mega tsunami washes that shithole into the sea.
But then the filth that will be washed away can pollute that region of ocean causing a global crisis
The Nigerian govt thought that if they built another city, namely Abuja, most of the problems of your economic capital, Lagos, (our own is Johannesburg) would be resolved. As you can see, from the time the decision to build Abuja to this day, Lagos problems have increased. The key towards delealing with Lagos problems is to:
1. decongest Lagos by building one or two other port cities for the import and export of goods;
2. diversify your economy and thereby decrease the quantity of goods you import;
3. while you are busy thinking and planning work with regards to points 1 and 2 above, you can designate the import of certain goods to other Nigerian ports and some people and businesses will be encouraged to leave Lagos. Lagos would then be able to breathe and become more manageable.

May God guide and protect Nigerians over there.

I just don't know what's wrong with South Africans

Which Nigerians are you talkinhg about? The peace-loving and hard-working ones or the criminals and cultists who kill each other and blame it on South Africans?
There's nothing wrong with South Africans. We are just like human beings elsewhere in the world. South Africans hate crime like you do.
The best thing that Buhari can do for us is to come and take the criminals and leave us with innocent Nigerians who have no problem living among us.

i cant argue with you on this, cause i know that apart from oil, Nigeria is a useless country.

I hope things get better for us, so we can stop coming to your country
Stop talking nonsense about your country. All countries have challenges, advantages, failures and achievements. South Africa is just as good and bad or useless as Nigeria is. If we were to list all the things at which Nigeria, South Africa and other countries are good and bad, we'd find that everything balances out. God didn't create perfect people and perfect countries. Otherwise, they wouldn't need each other, competition would be unnecessary, development and progress would be impossible and life would be boring and not worth living.

Which are we going to believe out of all the latest killings in Sa.

One report says A Tanzanian man killed a South African..

Yours is another versions
Believe nothing until you get an official report from the South African Police Service. Once you've received that, compare it with what the Nigerian Embassy, tweeteratti and others are saying analyse and decide what to believe. Just refuse to believe anything people say without first using your God-given brains to process it. You are not a goat but a human being.
