One thing I hate from Nigerian arm robbers and kidnappers is that they always mess up when you needed them most. Now this is your opportunity to hammer shop rite and other south African owned business. Now see una life.

Good one, part of my suggestion in the other thread.

To those suggesting attacks on Shoprite, 99.5% of the workers there are Nigerians, the mall housing the supermarket is mostly owned by state govt or private Nigerian investors, there are also Nigerian shops inside the mall.
MTN Nigeria is now like a franchise, majority of shares are owned by wealthy Nigerians according to Nigeria Stock Exchange.
Nigerians also have a major stake in Multichoice the owners of DSTV. Workers in DSTV Nigeria are almost 100% Nigerians.

We will only hurt ourselves and relatives if we burn down these companies.
Nigerian Government needs to acts now diplomatically, sanctions should be placed on SouthAfrica, high powered delegation should be sent to SA to provide relief materials to Nigerians affected and meet with the Nigeria community over there.

Pinshures or

kk

Send soldiers, We need them drilling and flogging those South African animals

..If Donald Trump is our president, he would have flown to Pretoria himself since Sunday

PDP blind followers wont see anything good in this?

Ok... It'll lead to something reasonable

Good.

Which stupid interaction,somethings cannot be settled with dialogue,sanction them till they start bleeding then they’ll fall in line,I hate this South Africans with utmost disgust.

Good news. These killings must stop.

And it's now the president is reacting. If it were to be about cows and his Hausa/Fulani brothers alone he would have react before now. Unrepentant clueless bigoted tribalistic propagandist Leader.

After they have ...

We thought Jonathan was incompetent but buhari just redefined incompetence. Ladies and gentlemen we are officially fvcked. Another propaganda move,walahi Abacha would have siezed MTN by now even OBJ would have done something.

Maybe He should even send our military to SA, since they said they are animals

SARS should follow Dem ooo know wan hear ooo

We will.....

I don't understand why he has not come out to say anything personally.

Better

Nigerian government should better contain this SA xenophobic attacks fast or cut off diplomatic relations with this ingrate.
