magicminister:This uncivilized and barbaric behavior of the south African people is rooted to their wickedness and lack of exposure. Nigerians are better people and we are certainly better of perpetrating such an extreme violence and sabotage against foreigners in our own soil. Enough is enough, federal government of nigeria should bring our people back home. We can't bear to see more Nigerians get shot and set ablaze in south Africa. Let those Nigerians who are employed in that country start relocating back home or seek job in other countries. And let businessmen and stranded youths get free flight back home for the love of their lives. When there is life, there is hope. It is a reality that all Nigerians presently living in south Africa have been sentenced to untimely death, but it is now left for individuals to run for their lives before the evil day when their lives and properties will be destroyed by some demonic south African men. Nigerians should persuade their relatives and friends who are residence and soujourners in south Africa to come home immediately. Our obodo nigeria still guarantee life safety, if not prosperity. Don't let your body fly back home to your family. This xenophobic attackers have no respect for a big man or even a child of God, they are cruel and merciless beast. Nigerians are warned !!! |

magicminister:Don’t laugh. It had been tried b4 and it made Nigerians wealthy. See below: New York Times Nigeria's'Indigenization’ Policy By John Darnton Oct. 30, 1976 LAGOS, Nigeria, Oct. 29—In an effort to wrest control of the economy from foreign hands, Nigeria has embarked upon a stepped‐up policy of forcing foreign‐owned companies to sell into Nigerian ownership. “In embarking on indigenization, the Government has been influenced by the need to place control of the Nigerian economy squarely in the hands of Nigerians and to ensure that Nigerians are the main beneficiaries of the resources of their country,” said Lieut. Gen. Olusegun Obasanjo, head of state, in a broadcast on June 29. Throughout much of black Africa, there is a trend toward “Africanizing” the management or ownership of key industries, but nowhere is it as pronounced as in Nigeria, an economic giant whose gross national product is equal to all the rest of black Africa combined. As spelled out in a white paper issued by the Government in July and soon to be legislated in a military decree, the indigenization is a radical extension of an effort started in 1972 under the more westward‐looking regime of Gen. Yakuba Gowon. Under the provisions of the white paper, the categories for Nigerian ownership are broader and the amount of ownership greater. There are now three categories. The first, 100 percent Nigerian owned, ranges from cosmetics manufacture to film distribution and covers a wide scope of businesses. The second, to be 60 percent Nigerian owned, includes banking, insurance, mining, fertilizer production, pulp and paper mills, planation agriculture, cement manufacture, construction industries and large‐scale department stores and supermarkets. Any foreign enterprise not in these two categories falls autornaticallly into the third, which calls for 40 percent Nigerian ownership. The businesses have until December 1978 to meet the deadline. In drawing up the white paper, the Government softened somewhat the recommendations of the board. The banks, however, did not get off so lightly and were the sole exception to the two‐year deadline. They had until Oct. 1 to achieve 60 percent indigenous equity participation—a date that was set, General Obasanjo said in his broadcast, because of the “critical nature of banking institutions to the success of the indigenization effort and indeed the health of the Nigerian economy.” The largest banks here, Barclays International and Standard and Chartered, agreed to increase Nigerian equity—already over the level of 40 percent —to 60 percent. By contrast, the American banks were 100 percent foreign owned. Chase Manhattan sold 60 percent of its equity shares at 1.24 naira, or almost $2 a share. Under the arrangement the Federal Military Government will control three of the five seats on its board, including the chairmanship. The bank will continue to operate under its own name. First National Bank of Chicago also sold 60 percent to the central bank but won the right to function under a new name. The Bank of America, the only one of the three that is not a merchant bank here, held to the same agreement. Since the purpose of indigenization is to spread the wealth among the people, some bankers assume that the central bank, which purchased the shares to meet the looming deadline, will eventually resell them to the general public. In that case the foreign investors, retaining a solid block of 40 percent, would have a certain amount of control. But other bankers fear that the Government intends to hold on to the shares, as additional leverage to ensure that loans go to productive sectors of the economy that need money but are not attractive to lenders, such as agriculture. In capitulating to the Government's demands, the foreign banks were clearly motivated by the temptation to maintain a presence here, however minimal. They are looking to the day a year or so from now when Nigeria, whose imports are skyrocketing and whose capital needs go up with each new development project, will go into the overseas money market. They want to be in on the ground floor. |

If South Africans act like this oftener or if they do and it is shown more often than the output of knuckle heads belligerently defending the indefensible, people around the world would be more understanding and not so condemnatory. And it would compel all sides to look beyond the ordinary for ways to ensure better coexistence. Nevertheless, it is probably too late for Nigerians and South Africans, bitterness has overtaken innocence of that first romance. |

These are the ones with sense and enlightenment! I don't support these attacks but just maybe, if our brethren who rush to SA in droves to make money try to be more socially responsible by giving back to the communities hosting them (e.g generously donating to charities, building/supporting schools - and many are in need there), there wouldn't be so much resentment against them. Also, majority of Nigerians in diaspora are decent and hardworking but the criminal elements that manage to find their way out there are giving us a bad name. Where a community is very accommodating, these criminals explore and exploit all loopholes until visitors are no longer welcome. |

magicminister:To hell with their EMPLOYMENT and TAXES. We can't trade our brothers and sisters for Employment and Taxes. Those SA businesses gain far more than they offer Nigeria, don't be deceived by your shallow analysis. If NIGERIA STOP PATRONIZING THOSE SA BUSINESSES, IT WILL SURELY TELL ON THEM, WE ARE THE MOST POPULOUS BLACK NATION IN THE WORLD. We should also go after South Africa Citizens in Nigeria and not only their businesses. ENOUGH IS ENOUGH. |

Jayslicky:The episodes will just continue like that. After 3 or 6 months, another attacks will happen. But why the Nigerian Police are shooting Nigerians dead for retaliating? How many South Africans have their police killed? |
| Re: South African Students Shut Down Streets In Protest Against Xenophobic Attacks by PoliteActivist: 9:17pm On Sep 03, 2019 |
CanadaOrBust:But that's also exactly where Nigeria's problems started - instead of leaving things in the hands of seasoned managers who knew what they were doing, they installed inept, probably corrupt Nigerians. |

But aren't ALL(sorry MOST) South Africans Xenophobic according to some people? These students have done more in calling out Xenophobia than Nigerians have in calling out Nigerian criminals in SA. Foolish celebs who are meant to be role models are letting actions of illiterates get to them. Imagine calling AKA a Xenophobe. Bunch of clowns! |

:-X7 magicminister:Dunce, this is the only way Nigeria can make South Africa government take proactive measures against the future xenophobic attacks on Nigerians living in South Africa. This is not the first attack on Nigerians, not the second one, not the third one and it won't be the last one if Nigerians don't send a strong message to the laid back South Africa government. Put all these employers stories aside. Won't Nigerians survive if South Africa decide to stop doing businesses in Nigeria today? We survived recession |
