Really? Can you really say this in the era of Google? Did you think , as in really engage your brain before saying this?

Igbos do not bury outside that is why we have Ezes everywhere we go, so that in cases like this the Igbo community and the Eze can easily repatriate the body. That is why the Igbos create communities everywhere they settle to avoid this type of embarrassment

Ask your country to close all it's embassies around the world and be a North Korea, it's not that hard to do, let every country you have your brands like MTN, ShopRite, DSTV to acquire the investment and return to your country , it's not that deep ! Stop we exporting your wines and Apples all over Africa and survive in isolation! North Korea did it, south Africa can also do it, stop victimizing the vulnerable in your land, migration is as old as mankind ! You probably will be shocked to find out that your ancestors are probably migrants also from somewhere ! Stop being hiding your hostility, the world has moved beyond that emotions

We don't want mass -migration into SA no matter where the waive comes from.

But we no problem with Kenyans, Ghanians Batswana, Namibs etc because they are not a criminal or or a burden of any kind here unlike you,Mozambique and Zimbos

Always shifting from pillars to post, it'll have make sense if you provide evidence where you exempt them in any of your barbaric attacks

LMAO. Imagine. 200 people massacred in one night and the country moved on the following day like nothing happened and no arrest almost a month later ....but hey....


They are the most civilsed Africans out there . People who think human body parts can make one rich .

Let them keep that civilisation over there, we are OK over here

let them continue insulting us, and I'll start spamming this thread with pictures of how "civilised" they are.

Lionessza6:
What is embarrassing is people who continue to be a nuisance everywhere they go and think this is normal.

And I agree with the rest of your post


And lastly;

You don't Bury a non-native man in tribal land in South Africa and that's that. Only married women can be buried in their husband's villages not the other way round. You can try all you want for this to change ,but it will never change . A man must build his own home ,so that his children and wife could Bury him there ,that's our way down here. Men don't get wived . She should have used her brains and buried the stranger in the city...but no,she inherited the forceful ,overbearing nature of her husband's people and she got served hot . This is disrespectful to and she knows it,she probably was isolated by her family because of this marriage and wanted to get back them ( probably the elders in her family are deceased) AND she foolishly thought the rest of the community will allow this nonsense on their ancestral land

I understand the culture, cos we have similar cultures here in Nigeria, that is why it is good for foreigners to have support communities in cases like this. The best would have been for the lady to take the corpse to a government cemetery.

RandDigital:
After decades of drugs and yahoo, this is the result. India is next. Proof is on the NL front page everyday.

Why wasn't Tupac ashes rejected by SA when his ashes was brought down to SA for burial?

SSpeter:
will you tolerate a humble drug dealer and a down to earth love-vendor?

Such with humility can be rehabilitated and made to change his or her devilish ways. But an arrogant drug dealer who feels he is doing you a favour by peddling drugs in your country is harmful and incorrigible.

RandDigital:
Remind us again how Nigerians got a horrible reputation in SA, like they're getting now in India and UAE.

The thing is that SA hate the entire black continent. SA hate Zimbabwe, Mozambique, Nigeria, Zambias etc. any explanation for this?

At the bolded...simple. This kind of outrage would have never been witnessed.

If you have similar cultures over there ,then why are your compatriots wailing and cursing SA ,could it be the usual Nigerian arrogance and entitlement mentality popping up once again, like in the Ghana saga ?

Lionessza6:
Where has anyone claimed that Nigerians are the only criminals in South Africa?

Cheap gaslighting tactics and deflection won't work here.

Look, stop your redundant noisemaking and idiotic grandstanding. This should not be about the behaviour of Nigerians in South Africa. That is a different topic entirely.

You people have encroached the boundary of one of your own to insensitively and condemnably 'nationalise' her private grief and wishes as another incidence to hijack in your obsession with demonising all Nigerians.

Have you and others thought about the women involved at all? One South African even commented ignorantly "go and bury him in Abuja".

Obvious your hatred for all things Nigerian prevent you seeing issues from the perspective of one of your own who is bereaved.

I.e a South African Woman, you have derogatively tagged "Jollofina", who perhaps wants the man she loved buried where she can visit his grave and relate with him.

This is about what an adult wants and should be entitled to gaining privately without an entire nation hijacking events to prove a point against a people they are now unreasonably hateful of.

Deal with the criminal Nigerians in your land fully as Thailand etal do rather than adopt an expanded dehumanisation agenda against all Nigerians in your nation that will even hurt your own people whose only "crime" is being "Jollofina"

AdolfHitlerxXx:
The funny thing is they caused the negative image of Nigerians in South Africa ... and it will be then that will suffer for it.

Northerners no dey go there. Westerners go only to study. Devloppers go for crime.

Deceive yourself, omo you guys don't travel , have you been to SA before? If you have been to SA you will not type this nonsense. From taxi drivers, to mechanics to painters to POP guys were dominated by Yorubas, I can bet my left ball that this dead guy is a Yoruba guy, because you guys do not have support communities where you reside....blame the Igbos for having Ezes everywhere at least if there was an Eze, this is their responsibility to help repatriate the body

South Africans hate Zambians ,starting from when ? . A whole Zambian former president is buried in South Africa, was there a push back by the citizens. Nigerians, Zimbos and Mozambiquens are a nuisance in SA, it's even somehow understandable with the other two since we share borders with them....but the nuisance from West Africa?

This is the only logical response, maybe my heart ask soften a bit when you said you're from Limpopo, I know about you guys and I was shocked in initially because I know Limpopos are way ahead of others mentally ! Thanks for shedding more light

Samantha125:
Okay, I'm a Limpopian and what I can tell you is that cemeteries in Limpopo villages hold strong cultural significance and not everyone can be buried there, we get buried based on our clans... Each cemetery has got its own clans and you'd not be allowed to be buried there if you're considered an outsider.

A few years back, some Pakistanis were also denied access from one cemetery in this other village in Limpopo... They then approached the traditional rulers of the area seeking a portion of land to create their own cemetery, but they were still denied.

So if you're a foreign national and you're planning to die in SA, don't even think of being buried in a Limpopian village or even township, you'll be chased away... ... And as an African, tradition also requires that you be buried in your homeland, especially if you're a man... So why can't he be taken to Nigeria for burial?🤔🤔🤔

So what are you SA doing in a Nigerian forum? Abi you guys don't have SA forum where you can post and spread your hatred to yourselves and feel good?

Why are you on a Nigerian forum since they're nuisance to you SA?

They are not Igbos, every Igbo understand this culture that you cannot bury anyhow on an ancestral land. that is why they create communities for easy repatriation of the body. However, you guys did not handle the situation well, you guys could have advised the lady and assist to take the corpse to a government cemetery, rather than creating a protest.

Why are you SA on a Nigerian forum since SA hate Nigeria so much?

What are you SA doing on Nairaland? It called Naira land... meaning Nigeria land and not SA land

aribisala0:

Oga Igbos do not bury their dead abroad. The deceased must be a Yoruba man. It is a culturally thing, a dead Igbo man, no matter where in the world he lived and died must be brought home (his village in Igbo land) and be buried

Why pretend like you didn't see my question?


What are you doing on a forum owned by a Nigerian and filled with Nigerians?

It is called Naira land... meaning Nigeria land and not SA land, so why are you SA here in a forum owned by nuisance from West Africa?

Yes this is a reasonable explanation but I have taken this into consideration mentioning in an earlier post that this uproar against this man's burial would be justified if legal, religious or cultural restrictions applied.

Yet look at the response of your fellow SAs here, like RandDigital, who began talking about the criminal reputation of Nigerians as justification for this development?

Go and look at the twitter comments as well, to the video of the man's hearse being repelled, to note your explanation did not feature in most response.

Rather it is "go and bury him in Abuja" and "it is an abomination". Claiming it is an "abomination" a Nigerian be buried in South Africa is acceptable to Nigerians how?

I appreciate your explanation but I believe the wider issue revealed is the unreasonable hatred most south Africans host for Nigerians that has compromised all levels of your thinking.

Most law-abiding Nigerians are ashamed of the Nigerians commiting crime in your nation and we advocate you deal with them to the full extent of you laws. That does not mean you take a "lynch all Nigerians" mentality over every issue concerning Nigerians in your nation.

This bereaved woman's request concerns crime how? It is final burial rites she wants to observed for her beloved. A private issue in virtually all nations of the world to include Nigeria.

Why then did most South Africans commenting online, and even her on Nairaland, made it about "Nigerian criminals must be buried in Abuja"?

No one is ahead of anyone mentally... We're just being patriotic and we get along just fine as South Africans, we understand and respect each other's cultures and territories.

I know you want to be diplomatic here because you're on a foreign platform and that's still the difference in talking about, but does this still stop a Zulu man from calling you a Shangani? We both know the answers !

Samantha125:

Well, you should be blaming your brothers for their bad reputation here in SA... And which burial rites are you talking about? Because according to African traditions, a man must be buried in his fatherland... Or do women wear trousers in Nigerian marriages?

And many of your brothers like flexing their expensive lifestyle here in SA, surely they can afford to repatriate his body back to Nigeria for burial, this is the time for them to put their money in good use.

you need help

I've never been called a shangani before or heard any Zulu man calling my people shanganis... So I don't know what you're talking about.

And what we do in our country shouldn't be any of your business... Stop trying to force yourselves where you're not wanted... I'm sure there are many African countries out there who'd appreciate you guys, so go there.

You said so much and yet said nothing of substance


If you don't want those businesses, make it known to your government by any means possible and we will do the needful,deal ?

But we will never accept your country exporting their mean-spirited and desperate humans here. Since you have nothing better to export to us then engage your government to close down all those tax paying and job creating businesses on behalf of Igbo unruly criminals ...we will see who will be shot down in Lagos, Abuja and Kano

Now you sound more shallow , I don't think the majority of pregnant and sick people you're refusing treatments are Nigerians , more so I don't think there's anywhere on record where a Nigerian is intimated and looking to hide under ANYBODY anywhere jn the world , give me an evidence
