agaugust: The world class and highly experienced British Royal air force FAILED to succeed with all tricks on the Roland at Stanley air base, angle 90 degrees did not save the Harrier jets, Roland sh.ot them down, from any angle the enemy came, the Roland is a 360 degree radar, it's not a one way radar inside the nose cone of a jet, it's an external rotating 360 degree circular radar you dummy
The British invented radar on this planet and they know about radar 1,000 times more than your tiny Soweto peanut b.rain can imagine, you just come here to cook up hallucinations about beating a radar that has beaten the British masters of radar....Mumu
One single Roland all alone sh.ot down two bombs and one jet fighter ALL at the same time, then you say it was only tracking one target at a time? That lone Roland just finished off 3 targets all at the same time. Dundee you are !
South Africa has NO solution to Nigerian Roland missiles.
You CANNOT enter Nigerian airspace side of the battle line and fly at 90 degrees above the head of Nigerian ground forces, NAF F-7 jets will be engaging your jets in air to air war before you go that far....you think only you have an air force? Fool .
[size=20]ROLAND SAM is blind at night. It is easy to defeat it. You jam it and the only option left will be to operate it manually and at night it cannot be manually operated at all.
BOOOOOOMmmm!!! there comes Gripens and even Rooivalk will take it out at ease since nobody will see it at night.
ROLAND SAM is the weakest SAM on market in 2015.[/size]
Comparing natural disaster with act of terrorism is the stupidest thing anyone could do
Your Nigerian goverment is the one that is super dumb. We don't make noise about their failure to protect citizens of Nigeria who are being killed everyday by BH. We never made noise about 84 South Africans who lost their lives in the building which collapsed as a result of incompetency of Nigerian people. Yet, they make noise about mere seven people who lost their lives in xenophophobic attacks which killed zero Nigerians. They are making noise about compensation without knowing that SA government has always been paying compensations to families of victims affected by xenophobia.
True indeed, we are not prepared as South Africans to discuss with disgruntled badluck jonathan who lost his seat of presidency to The most honourable Mr Buhari. To hell with jonathan and his cabinet.
lezz: lol SA is 90% black and 5% white who holds the reputation and perception of that country still.
the world views SA as a country built by europeans and now being destroyed by blacks.
cricket, rudgy, swimming are dominated by whites.
and they are doing very well but its just unfortunate the world dont care much.
football is dominated by blacks and you are a flat 0.
that goes with everything else in your country.
everything you touch turns to ashes.
If then you put the percentage of blacks at 90% and whites at 5% what about Coloureds who outnumber whites and Asians? Go and learn demographics of SA well and learn to know that blacks in South Africa do not even comprise 80% of the population.
Rilamaka: That's all I have been saying. I don't know why people don't get it. Let MTN, Shop rite and DSTV go, their Nigerian competitors will simply take over and business will continue as usual. You guys should stop this "employing thousands of Nigerians bullsh*t".
We will gladly welcome them back home with open arms and wait and see economic crisis tearing Nigeria apart.
989900: Sorry to burst your bubble, 'econ 101' won't do much for you here. You need more than that to decipher the intricacies affecting the value of the Naira to the dollar, and how fluid that can be.
Oil is only 10% thereabout of Nigeria's GDP (don't confuse GDP with GOv't's. forex earnings).
Even at that, how is $450b 0.5 times of $350b?
Chief-Chief, let us do Maths.
350X0.5=175
175+350=525, so you see the figures are even high. Let say your GDP is 0.3 X bigger than SA GDP to be more accurate.
Nah!! you know that our monies and GDPs are always calculated on dollars on international platform and once our home currencies perform weak against the dollar out wealth is affected and thus our GDP. Ask Dangote how he lost his $10 billion in a short space of time. The Naira is shrinking your GDP bit by bit while your growth is escalating positively. You lose some and gain some.
989900: Well if ur 'thought-process' is functioning @ 0.5 times it's capacity, yes, ur right!
Nigeria: $600b (excluding some private industries/trades) is 0.5 times of SA: $350?
Lagos' GDP alone is almost half of the whole of SA's.
And if Lagos where a country in Africa, with it's GDP twice, or more of countries like Ghana, Kenya, and e.t.c., it will be the 4th-5th biggest economy in Africa.
Chief, it seems as if you have not done economics 101. The recent devaluation of Naira and falling oil prices has shrunk your GDP now to less than $450 billion. Go and learn your economics.
Baddoo01: N/B: 1. SA doesn't have the best economy in Africa, Nigeria does 2. BH will islamise SA under two days if they attack u guys 3. If I were GEJ, for this nonsense u wrote, I'll test the strength of ur army for 3 days 3. You've never been to Nigeria b4, I dnt want to talk about other places, just come to Calabar for a one day tour with me and you will deny that you're from SA. 4. It seems nobody have told u that you're stupid, I've done that 5. A single Nigerian can buy over MTN(thieves) and Shoprite(looters), buy ur president and ur country and bring u here to be washing my boxers if slave trade was not abolished. 6. Never compare Nigeria to South Africa, in the next twenty years, u can never take over as the largest economy and besides ur yearly budget is still financed by other countries including us. 7. Delete ur account from Nairaland 8. Visit Nigeria for one's, please 9. If u need money to travel to hell(which is nothing different from ur country), I'll help u 10. Go and tell ur father that a Nigerian said that you're stupid.
Stop feeding us untruths. SA has the best military in Africa that will decimate Boko haram just in few hours. Remember the same South Africans are helping you defeat Boko Haram when your soldiers were chased around by just mere tag tag militant group losing land and bases.
SA has the largest budget in Africa, which is 4X larger than that of Nigeria. So, how will you finance our budget when you are struggling to raise over $100 billion budget to your own people. You uninformed claim does not make sense.
Thandolwethu: I start by imploring you to read this letter with an open and unbiased mind as this will enable you grab the full gist of my message. I am a full blooded South African, born and bread in Soweto. I have never been to Nigeria and my impression of your Country is formed by the behaviour and actions of the many Nigerians who live in SA and what we hear and read from the media about the goings on in your country. I deliberately joined Nairaland today as I noted that alot of you are on this Forum hence its a good platform to pass my message. Suffice it to say that i will delete this account after this message. I will read your responses with keen interest.
1. There is no question that there was xenophobic attack on Foreigners in SA in the past 3weeks. What is in doubt is the scale of the attack. I have noted that Nigerians have overtly blown the crises out of proportion by spreading lies and wrong informatiom concerning the crisis. The idea that South Africans are going round SA cities killing, maiming and burning Foreigners is a lie. Only 7 people have been killed so far and of these 7, 3 are south Africans, 2 Ethiopians and 2 Mozambican. The world media is in agreement with these figures. While its 7 lives too many that doesnt give credence to the news going round in Nigeria that we are killing and burning Foreigners. If thats true then there would be more people dead. STOP BELIEVING WHATYOU READ AND WATCH ON social media as most are lies and fabricated figments of the imaginations of mischievous Nigerians in other to stoke the flame of discord between Nigeria and SA.
2. Why are Nigerians up in arms against SA with xenophobia when the war in Nigeria is far worse than here in SA. Boko haram is killing thousands your people everyday and theres no end in sight meanwhile no Nigerian has been killed in this Xenophobic attack. That is why Nigerians throng our embassies in Lagos and Abuja seeking Visas to come to SA and escape the despicable living conditions in the slums of Nigeria.
3. This recent Xenophobic attack was predicated on the fact that Foreigners commit so much heinous crimes in SA without impunity and we are tired of all these. We have our own criminals here so we cant add more problems from foreigners. A. NIigerians are the kingpins of drugs killing our children and society. Your brothers drug our girls into prostitution. They con our people with fraud and 419. They hack into our bank accounts stealing millions.
B. Zimbabweans are involved in robberies and car hijackings
C. Mozambicans kill our farmers and take our jobs for peanuts leaving many South Africans jobless
D. Ethiopians and Somalians open shops to do illegal activities and pollute our communities. Theres a Somalian shop in every 2 houses on every street in SA. No Country can allow that.
SA has its own issues but we would like to solve them without the added problems of Foreign crimials.
If you like burn down shoprite and close MTN its your people that will suffer because these companies employ millions of Nigerians. They will simply go jobless.
Thank you
Especially photoshopped pictures like this as attached below, seeks to defame the name of South Africa and that of her President.
1. Hindi film industry (aka Bollywood) 2. Nigerian film industry (aka Nollywood) 3. Hollywood 4. Japanese industry 5. Chinese film industry 6. French film industry 7. German film industry 8. Spain's film industry 9. Italian film industry 10. South Korean film industry
I don't see SA in that list despite all the noise making. The white men should really help them there as the blacks over there are nothing without them.
lezz: Ape, NOLLYWOOD is number2 in the world after occupying the 3rd position for over a decade. 1 Hollywood= USA 2 Nollywood=NIGERIA 3 Bollywood= INDIA what is the name of SA film industry and what position in the world is it?
and you are talking about Oscar awards as a yardstick for measuring your film industry.
if you are the zulu representative here you should be recalled home. you are doing a drunken job here. your xenophobic zulu king seems to have more logic than you even though his cannot fill up a baby's medicine spoon.
Actually it goes like this.
1.Bollywood 2.Hollywood 3.Hollywood.
However, the top two are producing just a tank of garbage. They can even produce movie in two hours using cellphones.
lezz: soccer is the nunber I sport in tge world and the only sport in SA where black really dominate alnost a 100% and yiu are a HUGE 0 ;Dsoccer is the nunber I sport in tge world and the only sport in SA where blacks really dominate alnost a 100% and you are a HUGE 0.
BSA (black south africa ) is a walking shame, no drive,no ambition, no focus. they are ready to be spoon-fed by ANC and use state power to seize white company.
Why do you divide South Africa into Black and White South Africa. However, Soccer is not the only sport in the world. Golf pays far far more than soccer.
Oh!!! I love cricket and the world loves it shame. In SA we are more into different kind of sports and not stereotyped only on football.
lezz: you mean you need source that to know we are the NO 1 economy in africa? or that we are africa's spiritual headquaters with the synagogue your zulu folks are paying homage to every day ? not to mention Oyakhilome Oyedepo
Ashimolowo
Adeboye lol. Nigeria is home to 5 of the top 10 richest pastors on earth.
so all the free meals ANC is giving as incentive for free education couldn't lure you?
little wonder you have sawdust for brain. what a slummy scum. you are such a waste on the effort of debate .
a zulu baboon who left the jungle by 1994 and came here to feign knowledge.
Olodo.
Oishhh!!! 419 pastors who are looting the lost sheeps in the name of religion.
lezz: lol. today shall be your slaughter day. no Zulu has fought and won any battle in living memory, you wont be the first .
alright let me slaughter you without even looking for old internet links like you.
SA is the highest HIV infected country in the world. it is almost an endemic level in your country that is has ravaged your military personel....WHAT HAS YOUR HEALTH SYSTEM DONE ABOUT IT ? it failed big time, zulu. today SA is a byword for HIV/AIDS.
I have posted last week on nairaland how escom has turned SA into a country lit by candles and your biggest hospital was using torch light from a cell phone to conduct an operation.
the situation was so dire that 3 patients occupy a bed in admission and one of the patient died and was sand witched by two living patients.
listen, just call me the SA slayer. i have had my medals.
when i say SA is a rotten piece of jungle run by violent savages and xenophobic gorrilas i wasn't insulting you people.
Over 80% of Nigerians do not know their HIV status and they are sitting second after South Africa. More babies die of Aids in Nigeria than in any country. Nigeria is regarded as the HIV positive infants capital in the world.
lezz: julius melamo is advocating for white land to be seized but he is afraid the white people who run SA economy will ruin the country economically if their land is taken.
point to note : black south Africa isn't free yet. you may have psuedo political freedom but you had it better during apartheid.
whites looked after you better than ANClooks after you
That's incorrect, the law does not allow Julius Malema to grab land forcefully.
Nigeria has established itself as the music/ entertainment capital in Africa. ask your Chanel O.
and other west and central African countries like Congo are ahead of you.
South Africans do not patronise Nigerian music. So, I also fail to understand how can you claim that title when your music is only patronised by Nigerians.
mikron: No wonder why South Africa is in this Xenophobia mess. i failed to stomach it when i saw this picture of South African president Jacob Zuma beating a foreigner woker at his Nkalama farm in northen South Africa. i grow hatred for these people per seconds.
Wow!! that's a Photoshop and it is malicious and inflammatory. Hope you will be reported for these and be banned.
America used mercenaries in Iraq for defensive role. Never mind the fact that combat is both offensive and defensive, a fight is a fight. Defensive combat, offensive combat, all is = combat.
SADF used at least a whole battalion of foreign white and black mercenaries in Angolan war....never mind the fact that over 60,000 black Angolan UNITA rebels were paid cash by South Africa to Cuban army while SADF deployed only 4,000 troops..... so UNITA rebels takes 90% glory for the ground war against Cuban army.
The photo of a pilot flying the Hind helicopter is a faceless man whose jacket collar is assumed by you to be human blonde hair. Have you ever heard of international standard called positive identification? Have you seen where an embassy gives visa to a man whose international passport shows the back of his head and all covered with helmet and heavy jackets... please show us the face of that pilot, we need to see a white-man's face to prove your mercenary is flying Mi-35 Hind....show us the pilots face ! .
Camouflaged or covered, unidentifiable evidence or exhibit is inadmissible in court anywhere in this world....
agaugust: You are just another victim of the shiny school building + dull brain students South African educational system.
You want to compare American cold with South African cold?
I was talking about cold weather that kills people if they have no heater for their homes. Does South African cold kill people? How many homes in South Africa are PERMANENTLY constructed with winter heater fitted like in America?
Snow photos you poster there means nothing, there is snow in Tanzanian atop mount Kilimanjaro.
Snow can cover a city and it's just + 2 degrees Celsius.
Have you ever seen - 50 degrees Celsius in South Africa?
How many of your homes are covered by frozen long icicles every year?
Your failed Southie educational system did not teach you people people how to argue within context of a debate. No wonder Nigerian teachers are taking jobs away from your lazy dullards and your only response is Xenophobic attacks killing your fellow African black men on the streets.
ANC nation of animalistic babarians ! .
Overseas seasons are same as those in SA and the rest of Africa has only two seasons which are, dry and wet season. SA has four seasons same as UK and US.
cold weather kills many people in SA. We are used to cold weather that kills @agaugau my pathetic fellow.
As the winter is coming like today, we are getting very happy because we love winter.
Henry120: Let's not even start with South-Africa, were virtually all black people are internally displaced. What's the percentage again, 90% of the population only own 10% of the land....
Fair individual, yeah, definitely is a Nigerian.
Nope, your Special forces been roundly defeated by a bunch of hoe/ cutlass wielding farmers.
"Seleka spokesperson Eric Massi said the rebels had broken through a line of South African soldiers during their push into the city."
Henry120: Black South-Africans are generally, un-intelligent, un-educated, mentally weak and lazy. They just can't compete or think with their brains.
I have not seen a company founded by Black South-Africans, not spoon fed by BEE, that is competitive on this Continent, not one. Even trying to find one is like looking for a needle in a hay stack.
All the South-African companies operating in Nigeria are White Afrikanner owned, not one is black.
Like @Lezz said, with black South-Africans, an Individual would need a photo-finish to know who's ahead between them and Burundians in development. Funny thing is, this is no insult.
Just look at their defence industry.
What about STANDARD BANK, MTN and DSTV?
Not even a single all white SA company can operate overseas. The laws of BEE makes it impossible for the government to export their services to foreign land.
Before you start seeing dirt on another man's house look at yours first. How many of Nigerian firms are competitive in Africa? None isn't? Don't tell me about Dangote because he is a business dictator, is doing his businesses alone with his family and hence is practically not a company. Nigerians are as well the greatest tribalists in the universe. The Yoruba's and Kanirus do not like Igbo's isn't? yet they are all black. Yet when the Igbo's seeing this and wanted to establish their own country, Nigeria chartered mercenaries to exterminate them. Nigeria has its own deep rooted kind of racism of the people of the same race called tribalism. Your house is as well dirty chief with the dirt that never received attention for many years. It needs a serious spring cleaning.
However, don't try to polarise the rainbow nation because it holds the future for Africa.
Nope, world bank report says hardworking Nigerians are all over the world:
The World Bank issued a statement confirming that last year hard-working Nigerians living abroad sent home to their dear relatives and friends inside Nigeria a colossal sum – $21 billion, or N4.2 trillion. It’s nearly two-thirds of all the money transferred to Sub-Saharan Africa.
South African blacks don't travel out of their country because they know that there will be NO FOOD FOR LAZY SOWETO MAN in foreign land, only ANC government pays able bodied young men cash hand outs for refusing to work to earn daily bread.
If Southie blacks go to America, na double trouble of hunger and starvation plus ice cold weather go kill dem finish for there, no labour-no sweat-no work means no money food-no heater in winter.....that is pure hunger and starvation plus freezing to death plus empty stomach for the born-to-be-lazy South Africans .
SA weather and overseas are alike, why would weather same as the one at home kill them?
SA blacks don't do drug and human trafficking, scams and international money laundering. Just some (two) of the examples.
Asuokaa: try it once..stay a year try it and ull see the difference...do you have freedom in SA the nigerian freedom cant be seen anywhere in this world..every one here is a boss...only if you are shy or ur scared of boko haram coming to enugu or lagos
