philchudi: Like seriously, this man is a threat to all black nation. And d reverse is that it appeals to many American emotion
Speak for yourselves please. He is no threat to South Africa except with Algoa. I May not like the guy but most of what he says its true.
Africans are selling their brains to develop Americas and Europe leaving Africa in shambles. I wish he sends most back then we can start building Africa and selling them our goods, mineral resources as final products at a very expensive prices.
ATERI: Yea, Oscar Pistorious is a Nigerian. Bombastic ignoramus!
Uyanya! How many Oscar Pretorius do we have compared to drug heads robbing people and killing them for a fckin phone just to get the next fix. We will get the death penalty one day and end your "we are developing" South Africa lies by killing your azzes legally. Watch this space.
seunmsg: I don't support drug trafficking in any way, but I still think capital punishment is not commensurate with the crime. Life is too precious to be taken away just like that. A lengthy prison term would have been more appropriate in my opinion.
What about the lives that are destroyed by drugs? Drugs influence crime, illness, homicide, suicide, robberies and destroyed families. One drug dealer killed compared to many affected by drugs induced crimes.
Life sentences in democratic countries is the most expensive exercise that equalls to punishing tax payers for a crime committed by someone else.
Dansiki1: I hate killing in any form, life sentences would have been better
Life sentence better for whom? Do you know how expensive the prison system is to be feeding a drug dealer for life? So basically you are punishing tax payer for an offense committed by a foreigner? No way, Jose!
alade112: SABMiller is not an Indigenous brewery SABMiller plc is a multinational brewing and beverage company headquartered in London Dy also own a factory in ilesa Osun State...
Nope SABMILLER is South African, it was South African Breweries SAB before they bought MILLER. Get your fact right.
wiseoneking: Thats the problem of your SW, allmost all their company are own by india, lebanese, igbos and lately by one hausa man by name Dangote who got the SW economy in his fist unlike SE whose 99% of their industries are own by THEM THEM. Sambiller is home made while Guiness is foreign. Mind you, there is Guiness brewery in umuahia.
Well maybe your Sambiller is home made but SABMILLER is a South African company!
Did you watch the interview? Epic! The US Jewish leader wanted to cry, almost felt sorry for him but they were trying to turn the whole thing to be about them. Jeer, utata was just on point. So love him in this interview.
As we are about to conclude Mandela's Month I thought I should share one of this great man's moments among many others that won many hearts all over the world. His integrity, humour and determination to liberate the masses of his country.
You know, this is one of the interviews I go to when I feel disenchanted by political, social and international acts that lacks credible and sincere commitment to the masses.
Surely, you were special Tata, we salute you. Your words evergreen and fresh to quench those we seek for justice shunning all to do what's right. May we continue to learn from you the good you represented and pardon your short comings for you were also only human. You did your best now we can choose to do the rest.
"The public want it to be done soon," Attorney-General Prasetyo said on Friday. "We are getting more informed now and can see how drugs have affected our younger generation.We could just lose a generation."
South Africa needs a death penalty especially on drugs. These people are killing our brothers & sisters force them into prostitution and still gloat about it, calling us drug edicts, lazy and form being hardworking and rich through the murderers trade of drug peddling.
That is the only reason I would ever tolerate the thought of DA ruling the country.
I don't blame the Indonesians but i hope they are not guilty of condemning innocent folks.
jennybright: IGBO Oma = Giant of Nigeria = Hustlers = Peace makers = Ingredients in your daily meal (Yoruba & Hausa) = the Nightmares of South African Women = The Nigerian China = Dike = Umu Afrika = Biafra of our time
even if Nigeria breaks today Igbos wont suffer in any way because they will use their God's giving talent and find away to feed theirselves. unlike ndi ofe mmanu, dirty pigs, orobo 100cl women, [b] go to South Africa and see how their girls are dying because of our sweet, handsome and hard working men [/b]Dont even go there. God thank you for making me an original Ada Igbo through mum & dad. chukwu abiama dalu. All Hail to Igbos
@bolded
WTF is this suppose to mean? Leave us alone in your lies! I don't want a ban again.
ATERI: You will never get it; you surely wouldn`t. You said 5% of Nigerians control our economy? Please make that 1%. That means the economy of Nigeria is controlled 100% by Nigerians, not by European rejects who hand over crumbs to you in the name of welfare. And in the paradise called South Africa, can you enlighten me on the literacy and murder rates among black South Africans?
I won't engage a deluded fellow like you. Europeans and add South Africans and Chinese etc own your economy if you don't know that you are very foolish. South Africa btw has stats, what stats do you have? A corpse can lie on your streets for days with you jumping over it. Who takes stats in such a mass of a country? When you can start by counting yourselves you can comeback and ask me about stats right now you don't qualify to argue with us about any stats.
Rossikk: Which whites built Nigeria? Ignorant dunce/white worshipper. Better stick to what you know. Apartheid goat.
You are an old sick man. I will not insult you because the xenophobic mods will ban me for another month. So continue being an insult to yourself, your lineage and Nigeria.
ATERI: There is no question to answer, my brother! How can any country wants to be like South Africa whose economy is controlled by less than 20% white population? It`s simply not worth discussing!. You don`t need to be angry and abusive because we are all brothers. The internet allows you to know what others think about you. Since I don`t have slave genes in my body, I refuse to believe that I`m inferior to anyone, especially in the land of my ancestors. I`m glad some South Africans see the anomaly I`m pointing out to you. No problem if you don`t.
Bull! Even worse than SA Nigeria's wealth is owned by less than 5% of the population while more than 60million live in abject poverty.( check your VP's address a few days ago). South Africa is a welfare state the poor get something from the rich through taxes. They get free housing, schooling, health, electricity, sanitation, drinking water, good infrastructure and monthly grants. What do Nigerians get?
Careful of pointing out something in someone elses's eye while you have a log in your own eye.
14: The develop that SA has had in the last 20yrs is out of this world. many african countries can learn from south africa. Before 1994, the development that was there was only for whites, black population had nothing, no water, no electricity, not sanitation, no work, uneducated. But since the black government tookover, it has pulled up over 34m blacks into middle class. As we speak today, blacks are the biggest consumers and drive the SA economy with their biggest buying power.
yes, the whites did develop the country, but only for themselves. The black government took over and expanded the infrastructure to cater for everyone, i can say the infrastructure has been tripled. massive freeway expansion, over 2000 malls all over SA, new houses for poor, 90% of south africans have 24hr electricity supply, 86% water supply, 77% have sanitation, expansion of cities and towns across SA, there is a lot that most afrucan countries can learn from south africa.
You'll get tired explaining to people who always find an excuse for their inability to develop their country. They pretend as if whites didn't build Nigeria but their lack of maintenance and just slothy culture destroyed instead of improving which is what we South Africans did. By the time we clock 50 years independence SA will be a first world economy and county but they ( Nigerians will not research and see post apartheid development) will still cry its because of whites. Nigerians have ego issues you see. They want to be the best in everything by lip service and argument but not in real terms.
erusen: please stop that running to other country bullshit,they are tons of people who call them Nigerians,we are f*cking overpopulated,like what Chinese are in Asia,they are developed but u still find them in different countries even Nigeria,like Indians also who come,so I don't this stop "running " to other countries u are talking about,there are at 160 million currently living here and if not for our recent economic and unity crisis, most of them who rather home and try to make by doing business here,the problem is just too many,you can't force people with different cultures to live together, the country is not united
londoner: Thank you so much for this truth. The reason Nigerians run to SA and other countries is because they want to have all the work done before they get there. They are not willing to put the hard work in to build. They skip over the fact that these countries were built. Why were they not running there during apartheid? Why were they not running there when there were violent ANC marches?
No intention to build just to enjoy the labour of others. Those types of Nigerians really frustrate me sometimes.
To dispel a myth though, South Africans also run away from SA. Many here in the UK and even more in Australia where I used to live. When you ask them why they tell you their experience and why they felt the only option was to move their families out.
Many gave up their SA passport too and this is White, Black and Coloured people.
Well said! Nigerians like ready made and still get to peoples countries and form judgment on them call them lazy etc. Not good at all.
Your last assertion is not true. Only Whites moved in big numbers after the fall of apartheid and many of them have since returned. Blacks and coloureds who are in other countries are there for career growths and opportunities, only a tiny bit of coloureds left for other reasons. And those coloureds are really the white ass lickers. Remember this is not guess work, South African home affairs does a monthly report on the number of SA relocating and coming back into the country. They all go through our system.
When y'all stop running to other devsloped countries and go back to Nigeria to develop her. Who's job is it when even your politicians hold multiple citizenships? It will happen when y'all realise you only have Nigeria as a home nowhere else. South Africans know that South Africa is their only country and are not going around the world collecting citizenships, so it has to work.
Nigerians take pride in their most brightest minds being part of development vehicles for other countries. What good is boasting about a Nigerians doing great things in a foreign country while his/her own country is going to the dogs?
Actually it might happen when Trump starts deporting y'all and you will have no choice but go back roll your sleeves and start making Nigeria Singapore of Africa.
CFCman: True. I would ask the African governments to put in place secure databases of everyone living within their borders before implementing visa-free travel for a 15-day period, and open skies.
Open skies, when fully implemented, would crash the cost of air travel within Africa. For instance, i read a report which stated that air fares between Zambia and SA have reduced by 40% since both countries signed a Bilateral Air Service Agreement.
Exactly! Africans like jumping the gun. Each country should get its house in order first before thinking of transferring their problems to other countries.
To be honest, a lot rides on such a decision in this day and age of human trafficking, drugs and terrorism. South Africa already has a bad record of carelessness when it comes to our passport and id's that are freely available to unsavory characters like the white widow etc. Immigration also has a huge impact on corruption and crime and all those take huge chunks of government funds to police, bring to justice and confinement.
