You are dodging the real issue here.It's the dilapidated conditions of your medical facilities and unresponsiveness of your emergency workers we are questioning,not the fact that an accident happened.It's embarassing and the whole world saw all of it but then what do we expect from a country whose president always has to fly to the UK for headache tablets? LoL
This thread was about the lack of talents in South Africa…. But you dodged the main issue to start talking of accidents…

But since you claim to know better and were there the day the accident happened… give us the official report .. lol..

And you are dodging another key issue here-

1. Nigerians don’t kill their stars… you killed yours… and i mentioned Lucky Dube and AKA as an example

Are you going to pretend you didn’t see the above?

Pls address why you killed Lucky Dube, Aka and more others below …

At least Anthony Joshua is alive..

Get your facts first, is mostly Nigerians and Zimbabweans who used fraudulent South African passports

I just want to see their faces and hear their accents,if it's not too much to ask for🤔🧐 grin grin

Come on Ogas,you know very well those aren't South Africans.🧐
South Africans and accountability are enemies

Always looking for who to blame is a sign of weakness…

You can’t take courage and face your problems….

You are talking quality and icons which you never produced any after Okocha,and he hasn't been playing for how long now? Almost 30 years?

You made this thread just to talk about your only one time legend who hasn't been replicated almost 3 decades later?🤔 .Dude what you currently have are just players who are good enough to play in Europe whom nobody 10 years later will be talking about.

The way you Nigerians like to brag about your players in Europe as if you are producing Roberto Carlos, Ronaldinho, Zidane,Henry level of iconic is just too hilarious...your players are average at best😂😂😂😂

You couldn't even make it past Zimbabwe grin grin
at this point, you are lost of ideas and just holding on to straws…. Because what’s this you are saying… lmao

Oga! Give me just one South African player home or abroad with South African blood that has ever made it in life…. 🤣🤣

Or just give me one player that has ever been so talented enough at least to be recognized in Africa and given best African player of the year award…

Pls just mention 1. …. Just one!

I gave you list of 7 Nigerians already- but you are here saying they are a nobody … okay I agree they are a nobody but the entire Africa has a different opinion and awarded them best African footballer of the year award… including our own very Emmanuel Adebayo for Togo —

You will say Bukayo Saka is not Nigerian 🤣 someone with full Nigerian identity… or Folarin Balogun … those are pure Nigerian bloods undiluted… it means one thing, talent is encoded in the DNA and doesn’t matter where you go or represent…it’s not our fault, we are just gifted.
And if you don’t have it, you don’t have it..

I give you the opportunity to mention any South African blood.. either representing your country or another… pls just give me 1!

And if you cannot give me just one name, it seems the debate is over, just carry your cross and agree that Nigerians are by far more talented, gifted …..

By far superior

Don't you think I know Joshua has Nigerian blood? He's the one that nearly died because you couldnt even provide him with a lousy ambulance.. He's British, same way Mbappe with his Cameroonian blood is French..

Stick to Nigerians in Nigeria, what else do they do outside of football?
JaceBlaze:
A country that claims him is the same country that almost sent him to the graveyard.The irony of it all.
Anthony Joshua had an accident and we are grateful he is alive and healthy…
Diogo Jota or Paul walker died of car accidents( May their souls rest in peace)… see Mr man, accidents happen and we don’t take pride in it or use it as a point of mockery…

But let’s talk of South Africa — hahaha

We Nigerians don’t kill our stars, no we don’t… but should we talk of Lucky Dube—. He didn’t almost die but certainly killed in South Africa by black South Africans

What of AKA- murdered in South Africa by black South Africans .

Please when trying to throw stones, watch your back carefully

Dude said Benny McCarthy and Lucas Radebe are not big household names in international football but wouldn't that apply to 99'99% of Nigerian players that are playing in European leagues? Currently you can't name me a player in the Nigerian national football team that is revered and held in high esteem with the likes of Mbappe,Ronaldo,Messi and so forth.

Yes,you got good players who play in Europe but that doesn't mean you are producing elite players.If we are really being honest the only legendary player that Nigeria ever produced is Jay Jay Okocha,the rest were just good enough to play in European leagues.
Give me just one South African player that has ever won the African player of the year award…

We are talking of quality and icons… you are listing one Benny lasisi or whatever that no one knows outside of South Africa… or who ever remembers his name?

Stop arguing facts, you will end up frustrated 😩

Okay agree we have Okocha, some have Drogba, some have Eto, some have Mohammed Sallah..

Pls mention one player from South Africa on the level of Okocha , Mohammed Sallah , Eto

Forget South Africans

There’s something about being programmed with greatness..

Do you know the amount of resources they pump for these xenophobic heads, yet they don’t have anything r hold on to as a people..

The few success they have are because of heavy promotion and funding… give naija people small chance and they excel so good at what they do..

That’s why home and abroad, you have Nigerian bloods excelling everywhere ..

But these Black South Africans! Chai!!! Nothing they can do once it comes to competing against real men from other countries

Na why their women are being taken by other men

This is pure misinformation and half-baked story.
Nigerians Dey learn work from Chinese and Indians

Especially Indians - like, Nigerians cant even do 1/3 of what they do..
But these Indians have power of secret and keeping their mouths shut

But Nigerians would make so much noise and even to implicate themselves and still be the ones to make the negative news trend
PoliticsRe: Nigerian Politicians Are Notorious For Document Forgery, USCIS Tells Court by Omoawoke(m): 5:34pm On Jun 23
This news that you people are posting here and making to go viral because of politics

Just know that the average Nigerians seeking better life are the ones suffering the consequences..

Uscis has banned Nigerians in the USA from getting work authorizations irrespective whether you are Igbo , Yoruba , Peter obi, or Tinubu …

Some people took uscis to court and they won and our people started getting work authorizations but they want to continue blocking Nigerians and went to court to present this statement as a reason to keep Nigerians on hold… (innocent people who are just living their lives)

The people suffering it are Nigerian students studying in the USA … this year, many young people’s dreams of studying abroad were cut short

But an average Nigerian won’t think deeply before joining in saying negative things about the country..

The Tinubu and his family and Peter obi and all of them aren’t affected…
So to you guys, keep it up and enjoy

You're simply hiding behind Nigerians representing other countries because yoy know in Nigeria theres nothing beyond football..

If rugby its a "Whiteman sport, so is football.. they were both brought into this continent by colonialism..
Is Antony Joshua a Nigerian ? Yes or no?

Is Israel Adesanya a Nigerian ?

I have listed Nigerians representing Nigeria and are known… how many South Africans can you list ?

Israel Adesanya is well known..

Both home and abroad, greatness is greatness… talent is talent …
You guys don’t have nobody… no talent ….

You can’t be mentioning cricket and rugby…

The point is you can never ever compare football with cricket or rugby… they aren’t global sports and they are even dominated by white men in your country..

By the time I list ten Nigerians superstars …you guys would still be struggling to mention the name of Gwaragwara 😂😂 or labalaba of whatever he calls himself .. it seems that guy is the biggest thing that ever came out of South Africa… I mean that guy that scored your opening game in South Africa 2010….

See, this is not even a debate… Nigerians are by far , I mean by far in several thousand miles ahead of black South Africans in terms of talents

We are talking of Nigerian bloods… there’s something about Nigerian DNA… the blood is strong

So what of Victor osimhen, Kanu Nwankwo, What of Israel Adesanya..
And Bukola Saka and Anthony Joshua have never ever denied their Nigerian heritage.. they are full blooded Nigerian men and they know their lands…

See painment ooo

You talking of rugby? White man sports 😂😂
How many black South Africans are in the rugby team??

How many black Africans are competing with you people im rugby?

Who are these people? Are they regional icons in South Africa?

We talking of global icons…or as any one of them even won African best players like Hakimi, Sadio Mane?

No single South African has even won African player of the year? Am I wrong ? Is this why you guys are so frustrated and hate Nigerians and other Africans ?

This is what ChatGPT have to say


If you’re using the standard of globally recognizable sports icons—the level where people who don’t follow that sport still know the name—then the list is surprisingly short.

1. Siya Kolisi — Rugby
2. Caster Semenya — Athletics
3. Wayde van Niekerk — Athletics (Coloured South African, not black African)
4. Lucas Radebe — Football
5. Benni McCarthy — Football

Brutal answer: if you’re talking about Anthony Joshua / Salah / Drogba / Usain Bolt level worldwide fame, South Africa has essentially no black sports icon of that stature. Siya Kolisi and Caster Semenya are probably the closest. Benni McCarthy and Lucas Radebe are huge in football circles but not household names globally.

Maybe you guys are legends only known within South Africa
We talking of global icons in sports

If we could identify their talents , we may be able to understand why they are obsessed with Nigerians…

It’s quite unfair for a country not to be able to produce a single legend to represent them and they can boast of.. it could be really frustrating
