rip to the Dead

In their own case, no reported death of a SA'n instead is an unverified number of arrests.


Our own case, only one day, death, can't we arrest?..are we this poor at crowd control or is a case of we are what they say we are!?



Very sad.......RIP to the dead.

I saw this coming fools.


myndd will ne happy now

May his soul rest in peace

South Africans are big time fools, they claim not to want foreigners but issue out Paid Visa to same foreigners, rent out shops and houses to foriegners, buy drugs from foreigners, prostituite themselves to foriegners yet they cry fowl when foreigners succeed more than them.

Its very obviuos that a south african sees himself inferior in all ways to a Nigerian hence his bitterness.. from their tweets i ended up feeling sorry for them as they are helplessly stupid


......

So far so good, Nigerians are still the losers of this crisis.

Just imagine another life lost just like that. The shops you are boycotting or even trying to vandalize here in Nigeria has mostly our Brothers and sisters employed there. Especially in this very harsh economic reality we find ourselves.

Yes it is pertinent that we make our grievances known and if possible with some affirmative action/ violence.

A good place to start would have been the South African embassy.
A protest in front of United Nations buildings in Abuja and Lagos is also welcomed.

We must not mutilate our noses to spite our faces.


I feel bad that my protest so far has been behind the keyboard. I will gladly join a protest that does not further endanger Nigerians.

#EndXenophobiaNow

People will resort to violence when both SA and Big govts look useless in tackling this issue.
Imagine a Nigerian president whose country men are being killed unjustly in a foreign land still planning on envoy to send to SA in days to come and also planning to visit SA only in october to discuss the attacks with their president.

How much longer will Nigerians keep watching helplessly their brothers and sisters being killed and their biz looted in SA with no decisive action from Buhari, and not take to violence like this.

We have a DUDE and CLOWN as a president.

Even, the president of Ghana himself talked presidentially against these attacks while Buhari was only watching and nodding head like his aide.
All Buhari does is to release statement via his aide.

People want to hear a firm and decisive statement from you and they will be calm. This violence would have been prevented.


And to the police, they've been used to killing armless protesters and Nigerians.

Why burn a police van? Taking Panadol for another's persons headache.

Such freak riots cause a lot of eedless damage and many innocennt souls may get hurt. Those involved are not well paid lawyer's or accountants but frustrated and angry souls disposed to violence.

Oti di Eniyan melo ti olopa South-ti pa

Self hating fools running the country

We are all doing what we know how to do best. Nigerians being Nigerians and our police killing Nigerians

After lots of people that were killed in SA

Our Nigerian police are still Killing...Wow

Is this a Country or

Why won't other countries kill our people in their countries when even our lives in our own country ain't safe

Nigerian police ehn. You know these guys are trigger happy and use live ammunition. They go just kpai you sara over protest. Abeg let the protest continue online abeg. Sowore that was detained is building a political career for himself. Me i am trying to find my rent money and my daily bread. Untill i am strong enough to make a difference I will lay low. We dont want to make a story for the Evening News abeg.

Somebody must die sha ni

The matter dn over tire me,

SA people are killing Nigerians
Over here, Nigerians are killing Nigerians too

God help us

Nigeria ....

The police are fools for using live bullets to control protest.
I saw this coming.
We are a poor country and some fools were still burning the few security vehicles we have.

There is no freedom of looting in Nigeria.
Those criminals masquerading as protesters should take note.

Nigeria police no just get sense, always shooting everything on sight as if life na duck hunt or video game, na the poor standards of the police force dey make people fear to protest in this country and why we will keep suffering the fate of bad governance because there's no chance for them to protest. Look at hongkong, as violent as the protesters were no single live ammunition has been used.

It is well

An average naija policeman would rather protect a foreigner and his interests than protect a Nigerian citizen especially during this junta

itsme01:
South Africans are big time fools

Nope... Nigerian police officers are big time fools... Read again.

Naija mtchwwww

They are killing Nigerians in SA and in retaliation we’ve started killing ourselves?

Who swear for this country abeg?

like seriously I believe this is the best time for revolution, the best time to burn this country down. y not forget about our differences n channel the anger and frustration to our leaders. I believe they can't all kill all of us. y not face them n demand good governance now. let's make the best use of this time. where are d ipob, militants, opc, arewa, various cult groups that believe they are fighting for oppression. this is the best time
