jubrilELsudan: Have you lived in South Africa? Come here and see the horrible things Nigerians do all in the name of hustle.
I have been based here in Johannesburg since 2004.
I went to Wits university. I work here in a top I.T firm in Bryanston. I live in Dainfern. Despite all these, ignorant brainwashed south africans of all race still see me as a drug dealer because our 9ja brothers have vapourized our image here.
Here in Johannesburg, Nigerians that I have had dealings with have brought me more harm than even the south africans. They are so dishonest and untrustworthy.
Majority of 9ja boys here are into either drugs , yahoo, human trafficking , kidnapping , armed robbery and all form of illegal businesses and crimes. And the 9ja ladies are into prostitution and running after rich old white men.
Nigerians here don't even want to see another nigerian doing well and living a better life than them.
You are working legally and they are still discriminating against you. Doesn't that tell you there is something wrong with them.
Basher8583: How do I explain a disaster ridding logic that isn't sense inducing.
I have no pity for you. Please take the next flight to SA to fight for your drug dealers and fraudsters brothers. I hear flight to SA is now dirt cheap
bakynes: I doubt if this report is true. The only way the SA Police would want to stop some of the people been evacuated is if they have information a Criminal is among the people to be evacuated. The Criminal will need to face the full wrath of the law before been deported back to Nigeria. I dont think its Papers or them asking how they got into the country that's the problem.
healthserve: South African has made far more advances in nuclear weapons technology than Nigeria. Plus, since they're partly Europeans, their cousins will never allow anyone unleash Nuclear weapons on them without threatening a reprisal attack.
wetin concern Nuclear weapon for this matter.
Its simple. The two countries cut diplomatic ties.
Jamestown123: U don't know anything. And ur type talk without finding facts to back up ur claim. Except Borno state which is being partially control by Boko Haram, north I tell u my brother is a peaceful place especially Kano state.
I spent my college years in jaji and Zaria and have lived amongst Northerners.
Yes peaceful but build your house there now and stay, when their eye red, they will show you their peace.
JaceBlaze: Last time I checked Chinese and Indians are not the ones who sell drugs to school kids,defrauding people of their hard earned money,trafficking minors into prostitution and all the crimes Nigerians are notoriously known for around the world.
Dummy. Who do you think ships all the counterfit goods into your country. What is the source of the drugs that enter your country, Who manufactures them, Who brings them in, How do they get in, from which ports do they come in, in what quantities. Where are the hot beds where these sales occur. Do Nigerians operate throughout the entirety of the country, Are Nigerians suppliers and distributors of these drugs?
Chinese and Indians who are setting up shop in your country and repatriating all their earnings, what are you doing about that?
Several of them are unlicensed, circumvent your immigration laws and detest you while reaping in your hard end rands. Where are your riots and looting of their shops.
Indians control your hotels and industry in Durban and these are not even indigenous Indians. These are South Asian nationals camouflaging as indigenes. What are you doing about it.
They are the among the highest perpetrators of visa fraud so much so that it was because of them Britain had to become strict and end visa free access to their country. What are you doing about them?
Set Nigerians aside, What about the rest of the Kwerekwere's. What's your gripe with the Rwandan, Burudian, the Congolese, the
JaceBlaze: You built a detestable reputation around the name "Nigeria" and for that you can give yourself a standing ovation,you did that to yourself.
Why are your people no attacking these detestable villians when they riot. Why are they attacking street hawkers selling their wears, Spaza shops selling goods.
Why not attack the Hoe houses, the drug dealers, the criminals?
JaceBlaze: If these attacks are occurring because South Africans are violent by nature then why are you also not liked in many countries around the world.The people in those countries see kwerekweres in themselves too? lol
Simple answer. Bad news travels fast.
A mere statistical analysis shows that perpetrators of fraud are relatively low in comparison to the overall numbers of Nigerians in diaspora but bad news is fun news.
You won't here of the overwhelming number of successful Nigerians out there who far out number the bad ones. A nigerina making waves at Nasa. A Nigeria congress man. A Nigerian super scientist making waves in the break through for the cure of Malaria in Canada. The highest degree'd immigrants in the United States, 1 in 6. Nigerians leading multi national companies around Africa e.t.c
Nigerians overwhelming represented the largest proportion of Africas statistically and will over represent in every aspect of endeavor both good and bad. That's a statistical reality but then again Bantu education doesn't allow you to comprehend this phenomena. You form your own narrative or buy into propaganda and voila that's your reality.
Jamestown123: OK OK OK now. How many of you here have lived in the north before? This xenophobic of a thing ehh is exactly like this riot that do happen in the north. I could remember clearly, when those Hausa boys are hungry they will use that opportunity to start a riot and then loot many shops and they even kill some Christians. They call it religious war but it's a hunger war. So many people today are still afraid to go to north because of all these. But they don't really know that north is one of the most safest and peace loving place in naija.
JaceBlaze: [s][/s]He says we should love kwerekweres but majority of South Africans have a disdain for kwerekweres, so how does he represent SA?
They have a disdain for Kwerekwere's because they see kwerekwere's in themselves. This is what Julius is saying.
They cannot storm Chinese shops, Indian hotels that are ruling over them in Durban or Camps bay that are using their people for cheap labor. They don't even storm the prostitution houses or the drug dens they are so called complaining about.
South Africans are Kwerekwere in their own country.
Like Julius alludes, let the kwerekwere's go, I for one wish they do pack up and go. This however it will change nothing. You have been a violent people for years. You will remain so for a long time to come.
Psychological damage is not easily cured. Take your oppressed cousins in the US. They are still suffering that damage till date.
JaceBlaze: Who'd ever thought Morphy the almighty would sink this low.
ohh sorry for denying you a chance to gloat about how great your hero is
I am a student of Marxism and socialism so I understand where Julius is coming from.
Is he a hero, well that's yet to be seen. What I do know is that Mandela's deal of leaving the economy and privilege in the hands of a few capitalist, greedy devils is coming back to bite that nation because they were frightened of going the Zimbabwean route.
Capitalism is not necessary a bad system however coupled with the insatiable desire of European culture, is definitely a bad combination as we see today.
slickruler: This is very misleading.. Very very very misleading..
This is my 11th month here. My First Month I stayed with a South African in his flat ( A work Colleague.). Not all South Africans are Xenophobic. The real problem is hunger/poverty/hatred (when una dey collect their women).
Lets tell ourselves the truth, 80-90% of Nigerians i have met here are here undocumented and Illegally. You applied for a visit visa and you have been here for 3-5 Years. No source of income, you resort to fraud and drugs. Giving the rest of your country men bad names.
I have met Nigerians who do Menial jobs from Mechanics to carpenters, uber and truck drivers. But a huge chunk gives the good ones a bad name. Its so bad that even when other Foreigners do something wrong they are easily tagged as Nigerians..
Nigerians without a legitimate reason should desist from going to SA. If you are visiting, go enjoy your holiday and come back to your abode. If you wish to boycott visiting then find some other holiday destination.
If you are going to school when you finish find your way out of there, the opportunities after graduating are slim.
If you are going there to hustle, that time has passed, you are headed into a den of unemployed, hungry and very angry people. Find your way to some other place.
MaNyEsq: Julius Malema speaks like a true leader that he is. The same sentiment that he expressed was reminiscent of a confession by a German Lutheran Pastor, Martin Niemoller It was about the cowardice of German intellectuals and certain clergy (including, by his own admission, Niemöller himself) following the Nazis' rise to power and subsequent incremental purging of their chosen targets, group after group. It deals with themes of persecution, guilt, repentance, and responsibility.
First they came for the socialists, and I did not speak out... Because I was not a socialist.
Then they came for the trade unionists, and I did not speak out... Because I was not a trade unionist.
Then they came for the Jews, and I did not speak out... Because I was not a Jew.
Then they came for me and there was no one left to speak for me.
Just like Mr. Malema stated in the video, when all the foreigners are killed or no longer available, you can bet your life they would come for their own including himself.
if I were a betting man I surely would put the odds on this, knowing fully well that with all the foreigners gone, self hate will always look for another target to express itself
kgr28: I am Classical and I dindnt bring economics argument. Either way supply creates demand so says Say's Law. So Morph your people came here found there are no jobs and started finding ways to make quick buck. They started to exploit vulnerable people and introduced to drugs. Anyway that's my take.
1. Jobless Nigerians in South Africa with no meaningful employment should be apprehended and sent back to Nigeria with immediate effect but that's not the fault of Nigeria. That's the fault of your embassy, your government, your immigration service and your law enforcement services.
2. There should be periodic crackdowns in hot spot areas for drug peddlers and prostitution rings with the perpetrators being expeditiously tried and send back to the countries they came from. Why is this not done. Your government have money to spend on diplomatic trips, whining and dinning dignitaries, World economic forum hosting but no budget to law enforcement for this specific task.
3. There are current quota systems in place, BEE etc that are supposed to address the hiring of black South Africans in all sectors of the economy so there is a smaller number of need for foreign expertise. Do you think if your country had enough doctors there would be programs available for employing Nigerian doctors or engineers.
You people are small minded and cannot see the big picture of what is going on . If all the black foreigners leave your country you will revert your anger on yourselves There really won't be anything different because you are attacking the symptom and not the root of the problem
Huff puff all you want this is the reality and sooner you numskulls realize this the better for you.
Government intervention will curtail or promote aggregate demand_Keynsian economic theory.
kgr28: Don't tell me about economics wena. What are you classical or Keynesian Either way, so if my country has a drug problem may be caused by us, does it give you a write to come here and mess up things even further This is not your country.
Stevecovey: Enjoying to travel is not an excuse for MASS MIGRATION into another country.
Mass migration is a problem. And in all societies, it is always met with violence. Because it is seen as a threat to survival. ALWAYS. Since the days of Moses till now. This has to do wt natural human instincts. Survival instinct will win over Rationality any day. Educated Germans burnt Jews in ovens. So all this back & forth ur having means nothing.
Forget drug crime, or southafricans talking about unemployment .etc. (those are legitimate concerns). However, this mass migration is THE MAIN PROBLEM. And their opposition to it is very natural.
Its a simple solution then, pass laws to limit migration, curb illegality and deport criminals.
MPSA: Brother! Do you know when this Xenophobic started, Almost immediately After our Democracy, Don't you think our People need their own Space?
If not! Why they are behaving so badly towards Others?
The toi toi and riot behavior was pre democracy and has been ingrained in the psyche of your people who have carried over to this dispensation so stop lying about that.
You have always demonstrated violently and are continuing to do so today. You are just picking a different "enemy" at this point.
Your tactics are the same because you don't know how else to operate.
MPSA: Open Borders will cause more Problems, You can clearly see from Now, Those who don't Believe me, They'll see, This is a taste, We are going to see a miracles I always see something wrong from the distance, This week it was a Drama More Drama is coming The Best way is to distance yourself from all this Drama
Open borders are not necessarily a bad thing. It depends on what is flowing through. Capitalist like 'capital" to flow freely across borders but not labor, well to be more accurate "unskilled" labor. Free movement of factors of production is the basis of Globalization and has had its benefits across the world without a doubt.
Your government does not know how to frame this argument appropriately nor does it know how to solve the problem because it lacks the know how.
there are close to 15 million illegal immigrants that are easily absorbed with the economy of the US who's GDP is close to 18 trillion dollars.
China has 1. 4 billion people and is has managed to transform its economy from cesspool of the world population to 2nd largest economy in the world.
MPSA: If you're happy with all this Conflicts between Migrants and South African Migrants time and again, Good For You, Innocent Migrants are dying because of the hate towards them in Most of the time, If you're Happy About That, Good For You,
Peace Of Mind If I don't see this Killings of Migrants each and every time, My Mind will Rest, When African People Cry all over the Continent because of Xenophobic! My Mind Don't Rest , If you're happy, Good for You.
Space
According to the Killings of Migrants time and again, I Believe this Murderers don't need them, Which is True, You can't attack people that you love the most time and again
Reason for all this poooo0 It might happen we spent a lot of our time without our African Brothers, It might happen we need time to recover, Which is fair ,If you see it in order way Round, Good for you,
Take all the time you need. You have made the point clear. You do not want people in your space.
