IronGalaxy, Morpheus admits there are record visa applications that we are using as a money maker 😂😂😂🇿🇦🏆

For face saving he says they're going to Cape Town, although all evidence indicates Nigerians are concentrated in Johannesburg 😂😂😂🗑️🚮🚮🚮

Stop misquoting me and tell your Consul to submit the numbers to the public.

For the ones still living there.

Some people just have to learn the hardway now don't they.

The poor things will be back crying about how they have bee treated after their "relocation" down there.

It's a reflection on Nigeria, my brother; don't blame us.. The fact that your people still wanna move to SA after all the "xenophobia" propaganda says a lot about Nigeria and life over there.. Your people would jump into the volcano itself if it means escaping Nija

Jon Obi, even said it.. Nigerians would rather die in South Africa than live in Nigeria

seppuku:
For the ones still living there.

Even for the ones that are applying to go there, it seems

You are misconstruing tourists with those who are desperate to Japa but ofcourse every traveller from Nigeria to South Africa is relocating there according to the propaganda.

They are tourists.

fake news. South Africans should get up from their lazy asses and work cos no foreigners again to work or do business for them.

How convenient... So a whole SA diplomat alone in Nigeria will give fake stats?

They don't understand what a consul does.. How can a Consul to Nigeria lie about Nigeria? These people just don't like the truth; it's their hallmark

It's coz they're used to lying themselves. Have you noticed how much this Nigerian migrants association in SA lies or withholds facts? They've never acknowledged there's a pandemic of Nigerians into drugs and fraud in SA.

It's because they don't like taking accountability..it's either someone's "jealous" or "Lazy". I heard another Nigerian who'd just been repatriated to Nigeria saying he was driving a "big cAr" and was "attacked" for it by "jealous" South Africans; I was like, what? Do these people know the cars we drive this side? They lie for sport, Ghanians too

We're not called Africa's most advanced country for nothing 😎🇿🇦🏆

They even lie to potential investors that they're the best thing in Africa. When investors get to Nigeria they pull out after one year. Think of all the SA companies that did them a favour but all pulled out eventually 😂😂😂🇳🇬🗑️🚮

Randdigital the spy from the South.


Tell this your consul general or whatever he is to provide facts and data to back up whatever rubbish he is spewing from his mouth.


He can provide the facts and data in this format ( example):


In Q4 2025 before the recent large-scale migrant departures unemployment fell from 31.9% to 31.4%. Employment increased by about 44,000.



But in Q2 2026 the unemployment rate rose sharply to 33.6% from 32.7% in Q1.
Reuters


Meanwhile, more than 178,000 migrants have reportedly left South Africa in recent months, including over 115,000 Zimbabweans and 56,000 Malawians.
AP News


There's also some interesting evidence from the industries affected. After migrants fled, several clothing factories in KwaZulu-Natal reported losing 12–19% of their workforce, but struggled to replace those workers with South Africans. Some jobs were left vacant, rather than automatically going to unemployed South Africans.
Reuters



The basic argument "remove migrants -their jobs become available -South Africans get the jobs - unemployment falls" is too simplistic.


South Africa has a very large structural unemployment problem. There are millions of unemployed South Africans, but many available jobs require particular skills, have low wages, are geographically distant, or have working conditions that discourage South Africans


And importantly, migrants aren't simply occupying a fixed number of jobs that would otherwise belong to South Africans. They also create economic activity by working, spending money, running businesses, paying taxes/fees, and supplying labour. Removing them can therefore reduce both labour supply and economic demand.


PS:


The plenty ironies of South Africa.

Meanwhile , I tried to cut out the part not bolded but didn't know how


Bottom line. Tell your president to provide facts and evidence of what he is saying and not bare talk without data to back his comments.


Talk is cheap.

What facts did you get from all the Nigerian returnees claiming they employed 1 million South Africans and their businesses were looted so they had to leave their wives and twin babies behind?

Did the m.o.d.s seek company registration numbers? Tax numbers? Employee salary slips?

RandDigital:
The South African Consul-General to Nigeria, Prof. Bobby Moroe, has disclosed that visa applications from Nigerians to South Africa have almost doubled, despite concerns over attacks on foreigners and safety in the country.

Moroe made the disclosure during an interview on Nigerian Info FM, monitored by SaharaReporters, while assuring Nigerians that South Africa remained open to visitors for tourism, business and other purposes.

The envoy said the significant rise in visa applications showed that many Nigerians still intended to travel to South Africa.

“I indicated during the beginning of the show that the number of visa applications have almost doubled,” Moroe said.

“So we are quite comfortable and we have no doubt that a lot of Nigerians who still want to visit South Africa for whatever reason can still go there.”

Moroe’s comments come amid concerns among some Nigerians over travelling to South Africa because of reports of attacks against African migrants, including Nigerians.

“I just want to give reassurance that South Africa is open for business, South Africa is open for tourism and South Africa is open for any other form of visit,” he said.

“It is everybody’s responsibility to ensure that before you travel, you ensure that you have your visa, you comply with the immigration laws of the country, you become a good ambassador of your country.”

He also advised Nigerians visiting South Africa to familiarise themselves with their rights, the country’s laws and the locations of law enforcement agencies.

“When you get to South Africa, you know and understand your rights, but you must also familiarize yourself with the laws of the country,” Moroe said.

The diplomat further rejected the description of violent attacks against foreigners in South Africa as xenophobia, insisting that the country was not hostile to migrants.

“There’s no xenophobia in South Africa,” he said.

Randy, I will tell you the truth. Here it is. It is very possible. I won't argue about it. There is xenophobia in South Africa. And that our people are applying does not mean there isnt. Nigerians that are applying to go die in Russia & Ukraine. Think about it. Lol.n


I have never told you that Nigeria does not have challenges...yes, we do. And no one has ever said Nigerians are not messing up abroad.

Come on. There are Nigerians in the US that are evil just like other nations, but they weren't treated the way you guys treated our people. But if you check it well....Nigeria has over 300M population. Just think about it. I know we are more than N300M, but you will see over 230M or 250M written officially. Think of that number. Then, check the GPD bro and then see the per capita. Pooosh!!! Poverty.

Cos Nigerians are smart, they will always check out. Pram. You cannot cage them. No oyinbo can cage us. Never. The UK colonise us na. But we made sure we got back our land. As for me, I cannot visit South Africa, not to talk of living there. But what do you want people who have solid babes, spouses, kids there do? They will but reapply cos they are already trapped there.

Check out yourself. Lol. You cannot get your land feom the white back. Can you? This is the point here. Nigerians have gone pass that. We have all ours back in our hands but to be sustainable, self sufficient and wealthy is the stage we have not gotten right. And its cos of corruption. Mainwhile blacks in South Africa have not even gotten over the fact that the whites own the economy there. Lol. If you take out the white from S.A. I want to see the GPD after just 1 month. Lol. You know the answer.

Randy, if you go back to the messages we have exchanged, I was not against you taking actions in the first place. But you took it too far. This is my concern. And you too arent helping the matter here. Honestly, you shouldn't be here spitting on Nigerians. For what? Why? No need. Rather, you should explain things and be a good ambassador of S.A. But you came here to show the attitude and characters of the blacks there. And so, I had to let you know that Nigeria gave you over $20B that have a value of over $35B today. And then, we issued you over 300 Nigerians passports so that you can leave that place you were caged in. We were your savior. Yes, we were.

So, no matter what our people have done (which we arent denying), you cannot compare it to this. Then, your president had the gut to say he wanted to get compensation for the money spent for beating, killing, and humiliating our people. Yet, we had an understanding last year. We signed an agreement. Maybe you dont know. It was the reason your president sent your foreign affair man to us but our president did not attend to him. Our president sent a lower rank foreign affairs person to just see him and tell him to go back to his country. Thats it.

So, bro....the blacks in your nation are not in charge of the wealth of your nation, and you are rejoicing. OK. Like I wrote earlier, some guys set you blacks up. And they know you will all fall for it because most of you arent intelligent. Damn! You fell for it.

My prediction is that the white will return to power soon. How? They want smart Nigerians and other blacks out of that place so you dont get support and good advice.

So, if the story is true that Nigerians are applying, you better take them back but make sure you accept only qualified ones. If you dont accept them, and you allow the whites to dominate you there, it will be over for you.

So, this is a good change for you. If you are too proud to take it...goodluck to you. And peace..

Hello all ,
I need to travel to south Africa for a business meeting in two weeks, my visa was refused because of third party booking
please assist me
how do you handle this kind of challenge.
kindly assist.

So you are saying nigerian businesses weren't looted and that some Nigerian returnees didn't leave their wives and family members back. Is that correct?

I want to get you clearly.

Should anyone who claims they had a business and where looted be on frontpage without proof?

All those threads, what proof was there?

But you want proof from SA diplomat.

How rich of you.

This one has come again with his south African half baked gaslighting logic.


I asked for proof of what the diplomat claimed. Now you’re pretending I said ordinary people need to prove their entire live's existence before speaking. If you want to argue at least argue against what I actually said.


Someone saying their shop was looted is their personal account. (And it's not just one account but multiple accounts) A diplomat making a broader factual claim is something else entirely. I asked for evidence of his claim try responding to that instead of constructing a straw man.

Are your journalists that lame they didn't ask him for proof/substantiation? Guy gave himself up for a one-on-one interview.

As for your point that multiple people said they were looted, ain't that convenient for them? I ask again, did you check their business registration numbers, tax compliance, employee salary slips?

The reason the hullabaloo about Tyla's concert was what it was - mountain out of a molehill.

Cancel culture cannot work in Nigeria and amongst Nigerians.

You cannot really blame them,Nigeria is in serious shambles and is so uninteresting and unmotivating to stay... imagine being in same country where your 1000 is nothing compared to the 1000 of even neighbouring CFA countries!
Imagine being co citizens with touts

NSA should invite him for further talks on the claims.
