Fact: Black South Africans have a far superior quality of life than Nigerians. Argue with your keyboard.

Where are you pulling the statistics up from... your rump?

Stop manufacturing false statistics to boost your fragile ego because south Africa doesn't have more black African millionaires in dollars than Nigeria.

Argue with Google 🇿🇦🏆🏆🏆🏆🏆

First of all, that charlatan is not a journalist.. I watched her entire interview with Jacinta, she clearly came with an agenda and preconceived ideas.. i'm happy with the ban

😂😂😂

Nword22:
You can't even boost of two black billionaires only one that you have Is supper corrupt with African football money.. dangote or rabau can buy all south African blacks and white join body.

We can cancel Dangote very quickly😈😈😈

Are you sure you wanna be loud about him?

Iteri I think your mistake was interviewing Jacinta first without getting sense of the lay of the land. Kubayi incident definitely humbled you - read the room, no other journalists acted like you (desist from Nigerian main character attitude when in SA).... You were definitely humbled and rattled on camera.

I've since watched your interviews on Arise and they changed of you to positive.

IronGalaxy:
Not only that, they have one of the lowest life expectancy in the world, we still outlive them with all our HIV.. because they die of curable diseases like malaria and malnutrition 😆 🤣 😂

Japa-gerians. But they'll say they're travellers like Chinese - wait for it 🤡🤡🤡

Anyway, what do you think of the Nigerian journalist ban! After Chidimma... It's ban after ban for Nigerians.

I like that journalist btw. Will create that thread.

Sonnobax15:

Imagine a nation whose rate of HIV/AIDS carrier is higher than their annual budget insulting and accusing Nigeria of having the capability of infesting their BONEGAL fish artiste with illness

Well,I even blame Nigerians for giving her the attention she didn't even deserve in the first place.

With all the HIV black South Africans are still the most successful blacks in Africa even though we only started in 1994, you in 1960 with your oil and 250 million people 😂😂😂🤡🤡🤡🇳🇬🇳🇬🇳🇬

You call us lazy but what have you achieved? You wake up at 4am, sleep at 4 am next day - what do you have to show for it coz black South Africans are still richer than you even though you call them lazy drunks 😂😂😂😂

Naija no dey carry last! We stand strong and proud. Whether she comes or not, Lagos and Nigeria remain the heartbeat of African entertainment and culture. No shaking!

I'm dropping this here just for context...

Judging by the list Lagos was the poorest city on the list. Tickets were probably half priced due to Tinubulation. Tyla is better off.

South African singer-songwriter Tyla has removed a scheduled show in Nigeria as tensions hamper relations between the two countries.

No reason was given for the change to her tour, but it came after some Nigerians on social media had called for a boycott of the show.

For months, South Africa has been the scene of protests -- some of them violent -- against African immigrants that demonstrators have blamed for crime, unemployment and a strain on public services.

Nigeria has become particularly outspoken on the issue, and tension was evident as high-ranking officials from Abuja and Pretoria met this week at the Nigerian Ministry of Foreign Affairs.

Tyla, known for hits such as "Water" and collaborations with American artists Cardi B and Travis Scott, had on Monday announced stops for a world tour for her second album, "A*POP", including Lagos, Nigeria's economic capital, as well as New York, Paris and Cape Town.

As of Friday morning, the Lagos leg -- which had been timed to coincide with Nigeria's year-end concerts frenzy season known as "Detty December" -- had been removed from the line-up on her website.

Representatives for Tyla did not immediately respond to a request for comment.

She's a good investigative journalist. I watched her interview on Arise TV, and she did incredibly well.

I'm South African and somehow like her despite the controversy 😅

Lazy South Africans who mostly wake up to drinking if South Africans aren't lazy especially their men they won't be crying like a baby "they are taking our jabs! they are taking our women " Go get a spaza shop and start hustling before SA economic woes reality set in from your incompetent ANC leaders

You're getting your behind beat by lazy drunks on the most successful blacks list 🇳🇬🤡🤡🤡

That one with no etiquette, and we can tell that her journalism degree she got it in 24 hours, or at the most seven days, because she has no journalist skills.

Please, there's a petition out here. We need to block this lady, number one, from ever benefiting from anything from South Africa. She cannot travel to South Africa, and she shouldn't even be doing interviews in South Africa.

Right here, they explained it. I'm gonna put the link in the comment section. Okay, yeah, we're gonna see who's Mumu. Okay, we're gonna see who are the rude people here because how dare you think you can eat from using the word South Africa? We're gonna make sure, and it's not just you. It's not just you.

We should declare Ireti Bakare-Yusuf a persona non grata in South Africa, which means that we don't want her. Which means that moving forward, we want her to have nothing. Okay, let Nigeria feed her. Let the Nigerians build her content. Okay, let her go be 100% Nigeria in Nigeria and leave us alone because we want nothing to do with them.

Ends with expletive.

Note: South Africans were also angered by a confrontation between Bakare-Yusuf and SA Justice Minister Mmamoloko Kubayi at a recent media briefing.

South African Starts Petition Unjustly Targeting Nigeria Info's Bakare-Yusuf

A petition calling for Nigeria Info FM presenter Ireti Bakare-Yusuf to be declared persona non grata in South Africa has surfaced online, promoted by an individual, Kgahliso Mokalapa.

It accuses Bakare-Yusuf of spreading misinformation about South Africa and promoting hostility toward the country through her reporting.

The organisers are urging supporters to sign the petition and contribute financially to the campaign.

The petition offers no specific allegations against her and no evidence linking her to the claims being made, leaving open the question of why her image was attached to it at all.

The mismatch between the petition's stated target and the face used to promote it has fuelled concern that Bakare-Yusuf, a vocal and consistently critical voice on Nigeria-South Africa relations, is being deliberately drawn into a harassment campaign at a moment of heightened tension between the two countries over xenophobic violence and the mass evacuation of Nigerian nationals from South Africa.

Bakare-Yusuf's Reporting

Bakare-Yusuf, who hosts Nigeria Info's Borderlines programme and founded the #NoMore movement, has built a reputation over recent months for confronting South African authorities directly over their treatment of Nigerians and other African migrants.

In one widely circulated exchange, she pressed South Africa's Justice Minister, Mmamoloko Kubayi, at an Inter-Ministerial Committee on Migration briefing in Pretoria, over remarks by a Cabinet colleague, Khumbudzo Ntshavheni, who had linked Nigerians to "drug dens" while responding to Nigeria's demand for compensation over property lost in anti-migrant violence.

Bakare-Yusuf noted that Nigerians in South Africa work as doctors, lawyers and other professionals, and asked directly whether an apology would be forthcoming.

An official approached her afterward and threatened to have her removed from the briefing room; no apology was given.

She has also pushed back on South African commentators who downplay Afrophobia against Nigerians and other African nationals, notably challenging author and activist Jacinta Ngobese-Zuma on Borderlines.

Her reporting has extended to the human toll of the crisis: she has described undocumented Nigerians trapped by South African law, unable to leave voluntarily without risking arrest.

She has also personally witnessed Nigerian families, including women and children, sleeping outside the Nigerian High Commission in Pretoria while awaiting evacuation flights.

Off the back of that reporting, she has publicly urged President Bola Tinubu to negotiate directly with South African President Cyril Ramaphosa for an amnesty that would let undocumented Nigerians return home without fear of arrest.

Petition Raises Safety Concerns
Because the campaign pairs Bakare-Yusuf's photograph with an explicit call to have her banned, without substantiating any allegation against her, it is raising fears as the kind of targeted online campaign that can expose journalists to real-world harassment, travel restrictions or intimidation.

Coming amid already strained Nigeria-South Africa relations over the recent wave of xenophobic attacks and the government's evacuation of nearly 1,500 Nigerians, the episode has heightened concern about outspoken reporters covering the crisis becoming targets themselves.

They gladly accept anything negative said about black South Africans but crash out the minute they hear anything positive or progressive about us.. this should tell you about these people

For the longest time we've been told we're the jealous ones but the truth is beginning to reveal itself. They envy us big time.

IronGalaxy:
Yup, true

zinaunreal:
Still better than being a south African with all the rich people white 😆😆

In your dreams... Greatest lie ever told. While it's true whites hold the majority wealth due to 350 years of colonisation, black wealth is also considerable.

omooba969:
Are you now implying that there are more drug peddlers than the honest, working and tax-paying foreigners in SA?

Your argument always centres on drugs, is that the only problem facing the people of SA? 😐

You missed this news... SA envoy's message while in Abuja.

Not gonna happen, Nigerians dont take accountability

😩😅 I've also come to accept we're water and oil - we definitely don't reason the same. The majority, that is. Still worth a try when you meet a seeming reasonable one.

Saturnalia:
Wetin I wan go do for South Afrika? I’m not a drug dealer. People are trying to Kpai you in their Country and you’re still going there. Is that not a symptom of insanity?

By your logic, am I also kissing the azzes of the Emiratis? And the Malaysians ? And the Singaporeans? And the Indonesians? And the Indians? And the Turkish? And the Ghanaians?

Are you the only people in the Universe?

Everywhere you go, wahala upon wahala. Instead of you to engage in a sober reflection of all your actions, you are here forming James Bond.

Na Tinubu and the FG I blame. No be your fault.

It's only once Nigerians begin to have an honest conversation about the actions of some of their people abroad that they'll begin to come up with solutions to mend their broken reputation. It people like you who will ultimately lead them towards facing reality - right now they have their heads in the sand.

SA doesn't deny it has some xenophobic elements and has also not blocked a discussion on migration at the AU. It just didn't want a discussion where it's singled out as if other African leaders aren't responsible for the dire economic and political situations they've led their countries to hence populations fleeing and resorting to crime in SA.

Omoawoke:
All your threads are obvious you hate us… you support xenophobia… you are xenophobia..

We don’t like xenophobes as we don’t consider them as proper humans…

And I say it with 100% confidence, I don’t like you South Africans…

You're triggered by my threads for your own personal reasons. The fact they make it to frontpage is proof they're not hate-filled.

Omoawoke:
People are trying to kpai you and don’t like you, the op you are here supporting has boldly hit his chest and said he doesn’t like you Nigerians and it doesn’t matter what tribe you are and what you do and whether you are innocent or not..
But you come here with eye service to kiss azz… lmao

Go dig out those posts where I said that - I wanna see them.

Omoawoke:
This forum belongs to Nigerians

I don’t understand what South Africans are doing here…

We don’t want them, we don’t like them and they can never ever be our brothers
pls do the needful and kick out this demons away from Nairaland

Ban their account and continue to send anyone that identify as SA parking..

We don’t want this people, we don’t like them!

I understand, you lost the AU vote. I would cry too. Try the UN.

South Africa has thwarted a bid by Ghana to place xenophobic violence in the country on the agenda for the African Union’s Mid-Year Coordination Meeting in October.

Ghana raised the issue on Wednesday during an AU Executive Council meeting of foreign ministers in Addis Ababa. However, South Africa’s Minister of International Relations and Cooperation, Ronald Lamola, pushed back against the proposal. He argued that rather than singling out South Africa, the AU should hold a broader discussion on continental migration patterns.

South Africa has been pushing all along for a broader discussion, not only to include more countries but also to discuss what it calls the push-pull factors — essentially poor political and economic conditions in other countries that drive their people to flee and head for South Africa and other countries.

Daily Maverick was told that the Executive Council had turned down Ghana’s proposal, which means that SA will not be under the spotlight at the mid-year meeting in Alamein, Egypt. Ghana has been the most vociferous critic of anti-immigrant protests and xenophobic attacks in SA. It repatriated several hundred of its citizens from SA, and on 25 July announced the start of the next phase to evacuate about another 1,000.

It is not now clear when the AU discussion on migration will take place or the scope of it. Last week Ghanaian President John Dramani Mahama posted on X that he had “secured a commitment from AU Commission Chairperson Mahmoud Ali Youssouf to place the ongoing xenophobic attacks in South Africa on the agenda of the next AU Summit.”

That was taken to refer to the next ordinary summit in Addis Ababa in February 2027. So Ghana’s proposal at the Executive Council on Wednesday for xenophobic violence in South Africa to be discussed at the mid-term meeting came as a surprise. Only a handful of African leaders are scheduled to attend that meeting.

And in any case, SA’s proposal for a broader discussion seems to require a special summit dedicated to the issue of migration on some date yet to be determined. The idea has been around for many years.

Mahama added in his X post, “Bringing the issue before the AU gives South Africa a fair platform to respond and gives us all a chance to find lasting solutions together.”

BBC HOST (Waihiga Mwaura): What do you make of this concept that's become quite a talking point at the World Cup? Hate watching. South Africa were at the receiving end of it, and some are saying even Argentina has faced similar treatment - where a section of the fans actively watch their matches and tweet about wanting them to lose. What do you make of that phenomenon that South Africa faced?

SA SPORT, ARTS & CULTURE MINISTER (Gayton McKenzie): Well, let me tell you... If you watch our games, number one, South Africa had the most attendance more than any other African country. Let's start there. No African country had the type of attendance numbers than we had as South Africa. We had the highest attendance numbers.

Number two, you went to Canada. The diaspora, you know, they supported South Africa in the South Korea game. Majority of the people were South African.

So you think we worry about the person that is tweeting there from a... from a country that hates us? They tried to run a campaign. We defeated that campaign.

Mexicans loved South Africans. Americans loved South Africans. We were the most loved country. You think we can worry about somebody tweeting bad about us? No. The majority of people loved us.

We were so loved. I've never felt so much love. You go to Mexico. Mexico threw out the red carpets for South Africa. Monterrey, it was South Africa. Now you are telling me about the few people that say they tweeted bad about us.

Vive Le France
