This comment made me burst out laughing. You are telling your fellow South African tö make a thread about it on a Nigerian platform ![]() Chaiii… Nigerians are undoubtedly the most hospitable humans on earth. We are so accommodating. See the free publicity you are given on a Nigerian site. Even Twitter, Facebook, Instagram have segmentation that prevents their own from freely relating with others, but see you enjoying a Nigerian resource and insulting us on top. Something you and your fellow South African lots won’t tolerate. IronGalaxy: |

The stupid ANC government I believe instigated this madness. They will soon get what's coming to them. |

And yes, im telling him to make a thread on this very forum... as much as you make threads about South Africa every day.. |

I think a cowardly government sending touts to sack immigrants deserves a response. Its important the Nigerian Government send a message to South African Government expressing its clear obligation to sieze South African assets in Nigeria to compensate any Nigerian who suffers harm in what ever manner from this illegal Xenophobic uprising. Imagine a nobody telling you they want you to close your shop and go, with ignoramus audacity. Apart from MTN and multi choice, there are several others from Protea Hotel to SAB Miller Brewery. We just transfer the South African shares of these companies to the returning Nigerians, as an exchange for so called spaza shops. But leave the company to continue operating as a Nigerian entity. Let's see how they like it. |

RandDigital:The way you South Africans are filled with hate and bitterness towards your fellow Africans should be studied. You lots are lazy, inhospitable, lackadaisical and slothful. I lived in SA for 2 years and couldn't believe how lazy and entitled you bunch are. You always want to blame other nationals for your illiteracy and poverty. Get to work man! |
| Re: "I Won't Close My Shop!" Nigerian Businessman Defies Xenophobia In South Africa by udemzyudex(m): 7:48pm On Jun 17 |
RandDigital:Now base on the video there, are the SA workers working there undocumented? |
| Re: "I Won't Close My Shop!" Nigerian Businessman Defies Xenophobia In South Africa by udemzyudex(m): 7:51pm On Jun 17 |
IronGalaxy:You're inconsequential man, we only care about our brothers living legally in SA. Any illegal person should be deported, and according to the video the man says he is living in SA legally. And as a legal resident, only your government can ask him to leave, like said you're inconsequential. |
| Re: "I Won't Close My Shop!" Nigerian Businessman Defies Xenophobia In South Africa by IronGalaxy: 8:01pm On Jun 17 |
udemzyudex:Writing such a bible scripture responding to an "inconsequential man" I see. |
| Re: "I Won't Close My Shop!" Nigerian Businessman Defies Xenophobia In South Africa by seppuku: 8:03pm On Jun 17 |
udemzyudex:Bros no matter how you try to argue with them you dey waste your time. If you go left, they will go right, if you go up, they will go down. This has never been about "illegal immigrants". Their antecedent and actions through the years demonstrates this. |

Bishopudo37:What's the purpose of your brother being in SA if he doesn't contribute positively to society? He's not a refugee. |

Bittersweetnig:There is nobody to buy those things. You think any of the zenophobia people asking him to leave has money or at least willing to buy out the shops for him to get money and relocate? It is like you people don't understand what the South African government and her people are doing.It is called nationalization of foreign companies/businesses,or you called it indiginization policy. That is,they want you to leave their country empty-handed, leaving your company behind for them to take over and change the name to their local names and own it Had it been they allow most of the business owners to sell out the businesses and get the money,most of them would have since depart willingly. But the fear of leaving everything they have suffered for over the years and go empty-handed to go and start life afresh is the reason some refuse to go back. |

SecuritybriefNg:The South Africans will seize the shops and everything in it. So what is he coming home with to employ his community boys? |

1972xy:Ship which goods? Who will allow him carry a pin out of those shops? Those touts? They will even prefer to burnt the whole shop than allow you go with anything. |

RandDigital:If the citizens have lost faith in the government and resorted to taking the laws into their own hands,then South Africa should be classified as a LAWLESS and STATELESS society in order of Somalia and Afghanistan. How can ordinary citizens walk into business premises of a legal resident and ask him to leave the country? Else....... A law abiding citizen who pays tax to government and contributed to the growth of GDP of a place will be harassed and given a repatriation order by some non-state actors, while the government watches helplessly,it means South Africa is in a state of ANARCHY. From the beginning of this migrants crisis, people like us said it here that nobody is against deportation of illegal immigrants by the South Africa.But that it should be properly done the government themselves.But what we are seeing in South Africa at the moment,it is not about illegal immigrants again.It is beyond that.It is deep rooted bigotry and hatred for the black foreign nationals, whether legally residing there or not. That deep rooted hatred is the precusor to the violence, killing,arson, physical assault carried out by the South Africans on the black migrants and that is rightly termed ZENOPHOBIA.Look at how they are shouting the man down saying we don't want to know whether you documented or not.We don't want any foreigner to operate business in our country.Imagine the arant nonsense!Is their statement not a proof of what we have been saying that it's not about deportation of illegal immigrants, that it's zenophobia? So, for you to shamelessly support that kind of barbaric and primitive ways of life of your people to the extent you are gaslighting the journalist calling your actions zenophobia,then you are a grade 1 hypocrite. |
