RandDigital:Nigerians do not really go to South Africa. Stop over inflating the numbers, if you said that there are over 500000 Nigerians in the UK , i will believe you. Stop confusing Zimbabweans and other Africans National as Nigerians.

RandDigital:How many USD billionaires are black south african? Probably zero or maybe one. This shows that white South Africans are the boss and they control what happens in the lives of black south africans. If you really think black south africans are smart, can you mention some of the global brands that was started by a black south african. |

Igbo King or Eze Igbo is a title for Igbo Communities in diaspora or outside Igbo land. Stop taunting the Igbos. |

BRAINBOX482:When you migrate from your country to another, it presupposes that you are in search of better living. You migrate to that country because you believe that living conditions there are miles ahead of what you leave in your country. You must not ruin that country. For example. You cannot leave your sharia practicing country a Christian country and force sharia on your hosts. You must be civil all the time. You must not run foul of the law. You must not commit crimes, whether simple or violent. If you are evicted, do not turn around and shout xenophobia or Islamphobia. Return to your country. Fix your country. Make it better than other countries. Baje your country habitable for yourself and family. Simple rules. Do not blame South Africans. Do not blame Americans or Europeans. Blame yourself. If you are unhappy, relocate to North Korea, Cambodia or Vietnam, where you can fafo. |

TEYA:Yes, because they did not run an industrial and productive economy nor did they do things like invest in education for black people. Instead they brought in bantu education which produced a massive underclass of unskilled black workers...the same people who are driving out illegal immigrants, because the immigrants are competing with them for the same menial jobs, and by extension driving down their own wages. The problem with white minority rule was that it was like Nigeria. Government was sharing the money, only disproprotionately to the whites, meaning that they could live like they were in a developed country, while the black majority struggled with poverty, and an education system that was designed to keep them down permanently. And that created the mess that is driving the xenophobic attacks Of course, ANC government gets part of the blame too. Yes, they have increased funding for education, but they also run the same sharing money government that the whites ran, with the same results. You want a developed nation,? Develop a mass of skilled workers, make the country attractive to investors to set up manufacturing there, stop sharing money government, fight corruption, and you get a working industrial nation Not sharing the money for fake life. |

njokuuche77:You are very funny. Do you see Nigerian politicians like people who can be held by the balls and made to be accountable? |

RandDigital:I asked you a question, how many black south africans have been able to push a brand they started in south african to a global brand. They don't have that capacity that's why most of the global brands that originated from south african are owned by white South Africans. From banking, retail store, tech communications etc all are owned and controlled by white South Africans. Do you know why? Because they're the only South Africans that have that capacity to do that others are Indians. Black south african don't have that capacity to hold an economy independently, they'll suffocate their economy within few years. Off course, we've see how they'll handle their economy. |

Ganjafama:They seem untouchable only because we aren't serious yet. When you look at the numbers, a few thousand politicians cannot overpower over 200 million citizens. Our real enemy isn't just the leaders; it's the tribalism and bigotry we allow to divide us. The day we unite is the day we take our country back. |

ghettochild:Brother make una comot that country no matter what they tell you. South Africa is going to institute laws that will continue to make it unbearable for immigrants to thrive and succeed because they are moving towards a protectionist, nationalist state. If you know what is good for your just gradually find your way out and take as much as you put in there out. |

RandDigital:You people said Nigerians in South Africa are undocumented. Where did you have the statistics that there are 500,000 Nigerians in Zenophobic Republic? The yoke is on you. |
| Re: 160,000 Foreigners Left South Africa Since Current Protests - LIST by Kukutente23: 6:46am On Aug 04 |
RandDigital:How did you know there are 500k to 1m Nigerians that are undocumented I hope you know Nigeria does not share a border with you It is virtually impossible for more than ten times the number of documented migrants to exist in a country you don't share border with I personally only know 1 Nigerian in south Africa while I know of far higher number in the US, UK and Canada even UAE So the 500k figure only exists in your xenophobic heads Nigerians both documented and undocumented (if any) can't be more than 40k in your country |

seppuku:If some Somalians have not formed the habit of perpetrating crimes, how would the innocent ones be tagged among the criminals? When a certain group of Somalians rob and break into shops, killing and maiming innocent countries in their host countries, how do you not expect the innocent to be tagged among the criminals. The General name is Somalian because Somalians were arrested severally and jailed. An asylum seeking Somalian breaks the law when he commits crime. He no longer is entitled to his request. He must be deported just like others. On this platform, read through and you’ll find comments in support of immigrants who break the laws of their host countries. |
