Really surprised at how the Nigerian govt has reacted to this lingering issue.......Am not surprised about our yeye celebs actions cause most of them are just after their belly.
BTW the unfortunate lootings and destruction in Nigeria should send a signal to the govt. about the time bomb of heading towards Somalia if noting is done to stem the tide of joblessness and hunger in the country

I don subscribe for my DSTV,let it expire before you think of shutting it down ,e go pain our big brother naija fanatic pass.

All the celebs with endorsements from South African companies are wisely quiet on this xenophobia issue....This Zoo isn't worth losing any money over...money that these Celebs will use to run their kids' Canadian citizenship and thus ensure their generations unborn have a total disconnect from the hell on earth called Nigeria....

This country has never been United.....it will never be United...We have never loved each other....never will....so we can all stop pretending to give a fvck about some unfortunates being roasted alive in SA....Because when push comes down to shove, we dont care about each other. ..

To my South African niggas, kill everybody and nothing will happen ....just don't touch any Nigerian Cow, because our cow-herder President will burn SA to the ground if as much as one Nigerian cow catches cold in SA ....when our own President has classified his own citizens into 97% and 5% , what reason is there to pretend that Nigeria gives a shit about what happens to Nigerians? ....especially where the xenophobia is majorly affecting the 5% who refused to vote the hardman? ...in othe words, our President fully intends to sit back and watch the South Africans finish the work his herdsmen, Boko Haram, and ISWAP have already started in Nigeria....So unwittingly, the rampaging South African Youths are now the official international weapon of vengeance against the unfortunate 5% Nigerians who saw our President for what he is and refused to vote him...

See the screenshot below...the average Yoruba man is blaming the Ibo man for these xenophobic attacks...that the attacks are caused by the lifestyles of Igbo men in SA as they are too loud and extravagant.... ...

The government wouldn't do that it isn't diplomacy buh if the citizens create a need for the gov't to these companies shutdown over insecurity fine.....
All d gov't can do is chase em off with tax policy

On one hand... True! Any "celebrity or entertainment figure" more concerned with their endorsement deals than the ongoing xenophobic madness that have seen people actually lose loved ones is a BLOODY HYPOCRITE.

Meanwhile on the other hand... I hope this lady's boldness to say f**k the endorsement deals doesn't stem from the fact that she has no endorsement deals with these companies... because that will also be subtly hypocritical.

In any case... to all those animals in human skin in the rainbow nation taking the lives of my brothers and sisters and having the silly mentality that foreign nationals (especially Nigerians) are robbing them of good stuffs...

This is for you....

Govt doesn't need to shut them down. They're on auto lock down due to massive looting

Okay

Let us lose petty things like endorsement to save our brothers and sisters life, there are many companies in Nigeria that can give endorsement deals.
We have UBA, dangote group, Globacom, Zenith, conoil and some other companies.

Truly every one is angry and agitated....

I like the fire....

Yen yen yen yen

What do you mean by that?

Ok

When they know the govt is lily livered and can't do anything, is really tough and a hard time being a Nigerian, as for the boycotting I don't know who it will affect pass cos these companies have a larger percentage of Nigerians working directly and indirectly

CHECK MY PROFILE, your electronics at best prices

Go to the airport now. Nigerians are still going to South Africa. Out government should take this case to United nations. Even boycott African Union. To show how serious we are. But our useless government knows nothing. When our embassy was ransacked in DR. Congo what did the government do. NOTHING.

When we don’t have Leaders

Say No to Xenophobia

Shut down only MTN and Shoprite.
