Like I said, when the government is sloppy, the people shall govern.
Well, I'm only pointing out that blame should not be thrown to only illegal immigrants...

And you think we haven't been calling out our government, submitting memorandum of demands to our municipalities, and holding it responsible? Clearly you don't know what you're talking about, we'd even sometimes hire buses from other provinces just to go to the Union Buildings in Pretoria to submit our memorandum of demands.

Protests are always our last resorts.

There is something I am trying to point out to you, but you may never see it, the reason is: your ideology, it has a similar pattern, not just you but anyone supporting the xenophobic attacks on immigrants(legal or illegal).

For instance, let me ask you a question:

Do you think disqualifying Chidinma from the SA beauty contest was right?

I'm done talking about this... If you want to talk about your Chichi, find someone else.

There is a similar patter of behavior between you SA people and a particular tribe in Nigeria and I have studied that particular tribe in Nigeria and discovered why they behave the way they behave and discussing with you has also helped me know(to some extent) why you people behave the way behave just like that particular tribe in Nigeria.

I was not interested in knowing more about SA tribes and their history, but my conversation with you has made me curious to know more, I want to be sure if what I am thinking is true or not based on what I know about this particular tribe in Nigeria.
