😩😅 I've also come to accept we're water and oil - we definitely don't reason the same. The majority, that is. Still worth a try when you meet a seeming reasonable one.
Yes. You are "special" Africans that have been bred in close proximity to whiteness.

We are the raw and unadulterated brand of Africans.

Definitely salt and water.

Are you now implying that there are more drug peddlers than the honest, working and tax-paying foreigners in SA?

Your argument always centres on drugs, is that the only problem facing the people of SA? 😐
Don't mind them. They are hiding behind that accusation.

The hatred is far deeper than that. It's POST APARTHEID TRAUMATIC STRESS DISORDER.

I used to condemn xenophobia in South Africa before. But recently when I look at the number of foreigners from different African countries that have been repatriated from South Africa I am beginning to have a rethink. Foreigners were just too much in that country. My impression is that if South Africans did not wake up as they have done foreigners would have completely overwhelmed their system to the detriment of the people of South Africa. So, I can sympathise with them, as crazy as that may sound. I just like putting myself in other people's shoes.

We have to build our own country and create our own paradise right where we are instead of running to another country because at the end of the day, you will see that there is no place like home!

I never liked the options taken by SA people in attacking African immigrants

But you see that post above on twitter from Tsesipho le or whatever, that comment is in order

Governments in West Africa should fix their infrastructure. The infrastructural deficits within the sub-continent of West Africa is quite huge, yet, politicians in Nigeria and Ghana are looting the countries dry

Do not under estimate the enormous impact a working infrastructure could have on the productivity of the people, and by extension, economic growth and prosperity.

We should hold our leaders accountable and demand better governance. Until then, we would keep taking the shits from other developed parts of the world.
Europe have the highest migration rate even for economic reason .
This is even the reason for EU

Why would he want to visit SA? I have never wanted to visit SA in my entire life; I don't even like SA, Black or White. The issue is we need to fix our own country and stop migrating to hostile countries.
Do you people think that a working country will stop migration to other countries?

Many of our people suffer from self-loathing.

In trying to understand why, I narrowed it down to lack of self-love, inferiority complex and lack of sense of true citizenship.

Being 9ja means nothing to most people due to decades of disenfranchisement.

The guy you quoted, like many others, would easily sell 9ja and its interests down the river for 30 shekels.
30 shekels? Someone that has been selling out his country for just a stick of agbado? Let's be serious please.

Bros. We don't have any problem with sending people home back to their country and we don't condone illegal immigration but please answer me this.

Who approved the asylum cases?

Who granted the visas to come to SA?

Who allowed these foreigners set up businesses?

Who employs these foreigners?

Who allows foreigners marry their people?

Who allows them use their healthcare facilities.

You can't attack people who took advantage of the systems you had in place and not face the government that allowed it to happen.

SAYNOTO XENOPHOBIA.

It is wrong no matter how you want to justify it.

Wetin I wan go do for South Afrika? I’m not a drug dealer. People are trying to Kpai you in their Country and you’re still going there. Is that not a symptom of insanity?

By your logic, am I also kissing the azzes of the Emiratis? And the Malaysians ? And the Singaporeans? And the Indonesians? And the Indians? And the Turkish? And the Ghanaians?

Are you the only people in the Universe?

Everywhere you go, wahala upon wahala. Instead of you to engage in a sober reflection of all your actions, you are here forming James Bond.

Na Tinubu and the FG I blame. No be your fault.
See senseless post and eye service...so you think south Africans don't do drugs themselves...it's only foreigners that do drugs ...keep been deceived

I am 100% in support of South Afrika. It is not by doing Cho Cho Cho Cho and shouting Xenophobia up and down.

We must ask ourselves the bitter questions about what is causing Xenophobia. You cannot carry your cultism and drug peddling into someone else’s Country and expect them not to react.

During Buhari Administration, UAE banned Nigerians from their Country due of Cultism and Armed Robbery, and nobody cried.

Unless we address the issue of miscreants soiling our National Image overseas, we will continue to bury our heads in the sand.

Ancient wisdom teaches us that action begets reaction, cause begets effect & sequence begets consequence.
So UAE people used mob action to take care of the illegal and criminal immigrants in their country? When you think you are smart, you don’t know that you are indirectly digging a pit beneath your feet.

African Union, Ecowas, Nigeria government are the bad leaders Nigerians are supposed to hold accountable instead of a soft target like Tyla, oya Tyla is not coming to Nigeria what next



RandDigital:
South Africa has thwarted a bid by Ghana to place xenophobic violence in the country on the agenda for the African Union’s Mid-Year Coordination Meeting in October.

Ghana raised the issue on Wednesday during an AU Executive Council meeting of foreign ministers in Addis Ababa. However, South Africa’s Minister of International Relations and Cooperation, Ronald Lamola, pushed back against the proposal. He argued that rather than singling out South Africa, the AU should hold a broader discussion on continental migration patterns.

South Africa has been pushing all along for a broader discussion, not only to include more countries but also to discuss what it calls the push-pull factors — essentially poor political and economic conditions in other countries that drive their people to flee and head for South Africa and other countries.

Daily Maverick was told that the Executive Council had turned down Ghana’s proposal, which means that SA will not be under the spotlight at the mid-year meeting in Alamein, Egypt. Ghana has been the most vociferous critic of anti-immigrant protests and xenophobic attacks in SA. It repatriated several hundred of its citizens from SA, and on 25 July announced the start of the next phase to evacuate about another 1,000.

It is not now clear when the AU discussion on migration will take place or the scope of it. Last week Ghanaian President John Dramani Mahama posted on X that he had “secured a commitment from AU Commission Chairperson Mahmoud Ali Youssouf to place the ongoing xenophobic attacks in South Africa on the agenda of the next AU Summit.”

That was taken to refer to the next ordinary summit in Addis Ababa in February 2027. So Ghana’s proposal at the Executive Council on Wednesday for xenophobic violence in South Africa to be discussed at the mid-term meeting came as a surprise. Only a handful of African leaders are scheduled to attend that meeting.

And in any case, SA’s proposal for a broader discussion seems to require a special summit dedicated to the issue of migration on some date yet to be determined. The idea has been around for many years.

Mahama added in his X post, “Bringing the issue before the AU gives South Africa a fair platform to respond and gives us all a chance to find lasting solutions together.”

The problem with people like you is that you are sell outs. Y=I wonder why you single out Nigerians. Nigerians are not the only victims of xenophobia and not all Nigerians are illegal.
Ghanians, Malawians, Kenyans, etc were also affected by xenophobia. There is no justification to k3ll or loot other people's shops because you suspect they are illegals. I no knmow why una no dey use una sense. Maybe you are from SA

You seriously believe the owner of this forum cares about any of the users? Grow up. This forum does not have 3.3 million users. All he cares about is breaking as many laws as possible to get as much as ad revenue as possible and thats it. There are Nigerians begging for accounts to be deleted and does he care or does he just laugh and ignore them? Outright breaking laws you all know exist and you still pretend he cares. And hes chuckling at atms because you lot are paying his bills not understanding hes playing you all against each other.

People, the word you are looking for is corrupt not lazy. And dispite what idiots say back home in Europe you are still not lazy. You make spectacular delivery boys for just eat and uber eats. Always on time, lots of effort, with a smile and manners. Cor blimey dont your little eyes light up when you get that £1 coin tip. If you have work you will do it and you tend to find the most efficient way to get it done. Most Europeans dont even do that. Joor, grow up.
