Isn't it time this platform is restricted to other Africans who dislike Nigerians, what's a topic about Xenophobia doing on a Nigerian platform, let them post it on their xenophobic platform not here.

But S.A is far better and developed than Nigeria relatively, and always getting better.
Why are we not getting better?
We didn't keep our colonial masters long enough so we have a date with destiny. To collectively take this country back to pre colonial status, back to riding mules, wearing sack cloth and living in thatch huts. Then and only then will our collective senses awaken. There is no other way I can explain the steady decline of this entity called Nigeria.

Neo-black Problem: Must Blacks Be Ruled by Whites in Order to Prosper?

In short, the neo-black dilemma may be framed as follows: is it better to live under white rule without political dignity but with basic life-sustaining standards for many;

or to live under black rule with illusory political dignity and without basic life- sustaining standards for the majority?

The path forward for Africa lies in cultivating higher and adequate levels of personal and communal agential integrity as well as full personal responsibility and productivity. Not to mention creativity (including epistemic creativity), productive justice (such as merit and freedom), harmony and reconciliation at local and international levels, and a proper domestication of capitalism and other related values and institutions.

Africa must stop wasting her time on dreams of socialism because it is a system of wealth distribution primarily. Whereas, capitalism is a system of wealth creation primarily, and wealth has to be produced before it can be distributed.

I believe these trees were planted by Whites during their colonial days in SA.

South Africa is what it is today courtesy of white men. Now, everyAfrican wants the beauty of SA, especially Nigerian[b]s. This is why we need to praise the white men sometimes.[/b] Not every of their deeds was bad in Africa. We were not capable of transforming ourselves due to our animalistic behavior.

You can visibly see how we plunder ourselves and take resources back to the white man country to help them develop further. Those that called for rapid and early independence of African nations are the greatest enemies of the black race. If our independence was right, why do we crave to be recolonized today?

These are my psychological reasoning.
hahaha..the obsession with white people on this forum is wild. There's a need for a mental decolonization over there

South Africa's development has nothing to do with colonial masters. You need to study their history....Great Britain colonized both white and black South Africans. The whites from Holland had already settled there long before Great Britain came along.....What brought the white settlers from Holland is story for another day.

The yoruba president cannot think of such.
All he does is plant people to disrupt elections, lawful protests and gatherings, breed tribalísm and encourage corruption.
No one should ever encourage him with their vote in 2027, because there's no prospect for him anymore.

Where were the black South Africans when their infrastructure was being "built"? Secondly, infrastructure is still being built in South Africa to this day, and it has never stopped...so who's responsible for it?
Jealously, bitterness, and white worship will be the end of you, Nigerians
During apartheid blacks were restricted to the townships....you needed a pass as a black person to enter the cities.

Xenophobic people
It generally amazes me.. the fake outrage, the smoke you have for the so-called "xenophobia" of far away South Africa.. not the rampant tribalism or the religious intolerance of your country.. You point fingers at others but fail to look at yourselves.,, but continue calling us "xenophobic" while we accommodate the highest number of African people in our country

It's because of the White settlers ( The Afrikaans) (Boas) they are the people who developed South Africa they built all the beautiful things and infrastructures you see in SA today.

You should know the story of South Africa by now.

Nigeria, we were not ready for independence yet we rushed to chase the white people away angry
you really don't know nothing about the White man. Just think of any evil imaginable the white man has done it. To open your naive eyes Google the crimes of Leopold senghor what he did to Africans. Gaining independence was a good decision but Africa is not entirely free of the shackles of the white slave master.

The question is, where were the native Africans when all of that was happening? Were they perhaps asleep or playing hopscotch? What were they doing? And what are they doing now since development is ongoing in South Africa?

Black SAs were no where to be found, in fact i heard they were not allowed to enter in certain places, areas...
But why do black SAs always fights and deny the whites massive contributions in South Africa developments today huh

What can we really do as a black ?? Can we really have all this things done like the whites do huh Railways, Hospitals, Schools, Banks, Malls, Packs, Road networks, infrastructurals developments, Sports, World class stadiums, All other sports activities going on in South Africa today, Recreational centers, city planning, underground tunnels, underground railroads, Speed Trains, locomotives, Electricity steady, covered drainages and so many more....
This is not inferiority complex, this is reality on ground bro. This is not looking down on black people.

Today South Africa can compete in international sports competition today courtesy of the Afrikaans.
Be realistic bro....
Almost all other African brothers want to come to SA to live and work. Do you know the reason huh
