Can you compare their hospitals and clinics to what we have?. undecided. Be sincere with yourself , it's not world class but definitely better by Africa standard.
Yes its better, i agree, but I don’t like it when pple paint things bigger than what it is, we have a problem as a Nation, Yes, but all this comparison isn’t taking us one inch, the health care system in S.A is getting uglier by the day, so many foreign Doctors left cause of the hostile attitudes, now they re suffering major setbacks.

idiots before you compare, check the cost of houses there, check the amount you pay for light bill, parking space, water bill etc. check how much a plate of food cost there, check how much oloshos there cost too before you fucking make comparism.
Don’t waste your clock bro, an average Nigerian youth is duller than Buhari

That was the point , we claim to be the largest economy in Africa shouldn't that reflect on our daily lives ? undecided. Shouldn't we have better pay , better healthcare and education ?. I don't care if foreign doctors are there or not but the point is that their healthcare is still preferred to ours .

Comparing Nigeria to SA is like comparing Keke to Gwagon. Yes, I meant 2019 Mercedes Gwagon. If you have been to SA before you will understand. Their government works over there. Infact Jacob Zuma was better than all Nigerian leaders since 1960 yet he was a failure in South Africa's standard. Nigeria is still in 19th century. Stop insulting SA by comparing it to a country like Nigeria for Christ sake. I suggest you compare Nigeria to Central Africa republic or Uganda not South Africa. Nigeria can never build a city like Cape Town in the next 400 years. You guys should know your mates and stop embarrassing yourselves online.

You call someone a dullard but do not know that SA's cost of living is way higher than that of Nigeria.

When you can rent a house in Nigeria for 450K per year, in SA that will be the price of just 4 months rent.

But off course you lot won't bother about that because of hate.
Cost of living in a country cannot be uniform. There are places in South Africa you can rent a house with even 50k per year. I know you have never left the shore of this country that is why you think everyone is blind like you.

You are right bro, but i am more scared of the foolishness of the youths than the politician, i hope to present a paper soon at an international conference, but i am more scared to present to Nigerian youths.
Put it on their table how we have been exploited and demand for immediate turn around, you find the youth yawning and walking away.

The comparison is on leadership and their efforts at enslaving or helping their followers. South African almost always do good by their voters even though they earn less, but our leaders with huge salaries can't even give us simple things like water and power.

Did Buhari decrease or increase the minimum wage?

Every increment should be lauded. After all, there were governments before him who did nothing. So why should a man who did something be voted out

Exactly bro , they have places called townships where low earning people can afford cheap rent or get free houses from government embarassed. These places have 24hrs of power , tap water , good schools and good transportation ( trains are almost free). The guy probably never visitited the country .

Economics does not lie.

Your country's situation is a sum total of the inhabitant's productivity.

What a silly and disgusting excuse for failure . Is Cyril Ramaphosa a white man? . If their leaders were as wicked ad ours , after white rule they would have given themselves salaries as high as our own, they would have never bettered the lives of the blacks etc but they did the opposite and we are still cùrsing our black skins for not voting in capable people ? undecided. It is people like you that keep our expectations so low, and no wonder our leaders ride on our heads .
