gst101: so many tuaregs here begging on the street. Somany togolese, beninios, ghanaians, rep of nigerians, chadians and west africa as a whole and central africa are in Naija.

They are the masons, coblers etc you see every where in Naija. They work in Naija and build houses in their home countries.

[quote author=mondi_cheeks]maybe u forgot that most of the people who pay tax for those schools to be there majority are South African, white and black, whilst most west Africans living in South Africa evade tax...so yes those schools should benefit more South Africans that west Africans[/quote]u still dont get his point ...education is also free in Nigeria to secondary level ...so if u have ur child enroll him/her to school, u wont pay a dime ..whether u are Nigerians or not no one cares .... and the money is payed by nigeria tax payers gerrrit

gst101: my dear, the Lagos state govt operates a policy of free education for all people resident in lagos from primary to secondary level. They also pay their WAEC fee and gives them free text books to take home. These people include people from other country that live here illegally. They cross the border, get what they want for free and go back.

The state govt also gives free maternal health care to nursing and pregnant mothers. They also enjoy some benefits from public BRT buses cant remember what that benefit is now.

its eeven the same for almost every state in nigeria

i dont think there is any state in nigeria that is not offering free eduction to secondary ( high school) level

[quote author=mondi_cheeks]Lesotho, Swaziland, Zimbabwe, Botswana are visa free, if you are going for a visit. it's actually much easier for people from these countries to be accepted into South African universities, provided that they can prove that they can pay the tuition fees and they meet the qualifications. If you decide to be silly enough to enter SA without valid documents you will obviously not live a comfortable live. Enough about SA how many people go to Nigeria seeking better lives?[/quote]lol so those togolese, chadians, malians,ghanaians etc that troop to nigeria on daily basis to seek greener pasture are nigerians huh? u seriously dont know anything about nigeria do u? google is ur friend! use it to serve ur ignorance, besides u have been on nairaland for so long to be saying this ... Nigerians dont discriminate unlike south african go figure...10% of heads u see in Nigeria are foreigners ... which is quarter of entire south african population .....

besides how is living in south africa carry so much influence? its like saying becos the whole world live usa, thats what made them influential it doesnt make any sense

Hezron Lorraine: SA vs Nigeria:as a nigerian.the battle of most influencial,I'll say it goes to Nigeria.south african history as an african frontier or power nation still traces back to Nigeria's strong support for the liberation of black south african during the apartheid regime.


point 1. Nigeria gave its all by making its foreign policy an open gate to champion south africa's rise in africa.the economic strenght of sa surpasses that of nigeria but that doesn't make her influential on every economic course in africa,why.take a look,the level of development in sa is nothing compared to what is presently available in nigeria.but proposed developments in Nigeria is a centre of attraction to the world.

point 2. Nigeria contested tightly for the world bank presidency race unchallenged by any other african gaining support and backing for the seat.

point 3.Nigeria has a high rate of FDI and currently a non-aligned enviable bilateral relations with countries all around the world.

point 4. africa's richest man and woman are Nigerians.economic influnce isn't reliant on success or stability of a country but on the impact it has.

point 5. it has.Nigeria's big brother status is ever ringing and her participation in the democracy of less priviledged,under-developed and developing african nations has got her international reckoning and supremacy on the continent.

point 6. Nigeria's voice comes first and has more strength than sa in africa.this is championed in the african union,ecowas and other platforms.

point 7.. Nigeria is still a first pick for a Permanent seat in UNSC.our current security instability notwithstanding isn't a detterring factor for the seat.with the current state of jona's mistake

point 8. the reception he would get in the uk would still be more welcoming than that of jacob zuma.

point 9. Nigeria represents the true africa of struggles and survival not a south african society that depended on the masterplan of previous white supremacists.

point 10..Nigeria is the true african mouthpiece and the soon to be african superpower.Migeria is more influential than Sa in all ramifications.

nice one there bro


now mondi cheeck ...can u displace this facts?

[quote author=mondi_cheeks]u haven't been to the schools, I on the other hand have visited schools like that. I know what I'm talking about[/quote]u still havent answered the question ... how easy is it for the neigbours to enter south africa to enjoy these ur delusional free schools?

sheyie2007: free?

e suprise me eh

[quote author=mondi_cheeks]and the same still have their children going to free schools in South Africa for a decent education... Or do u expect South Africa to reward adults for breaking their law too?[/quote]lol so are u saying those countries can travel to south africa without visa and enjoy free education

even other south african countries (the neighbours) cannot enter south africa freely unlike nigeria that is still major player in ecowas

dey their dey deceive yourself

[quote author=mondi_cheeks]Kwame Nkrukumah...influence in the formation of the OAU now known as AU...he contributed a great deal to the unity African countries have formed...not all obviously...but still his great efforts are still being recognized by some African countries on the 25th of May. That's one example[/quote]lol is that all u got? i thought u gonna list more than that

[quote author=mondi_cheeks]I pretty sure I stated that, but I guess I have to point it out again for those that don't catch up quickly

•like I said Nelson Mandela's influence in decolonisation in Africa

•the 1994 interim Constitution of SA which introduce democracy and equality for all, which most african countries are now incorporating in their on legal systems

•an opportunity for other africans to live a better life in SA

•quality education and better medical service provided for all...including those who ilegally entered the Republic and fraudulenty obtained citizenship [/quote]lmao
so how are these things major points


do u know how many nigeriens, chadians, toglosese, benin, gaynians, ivorians living in nigeria...even most of them entereed the country illegally... no one cares if not for the recent terrorism problem ..no one woulda care

they lead the life nigerians are living

by the way nigeria has contributed more to put africans on world map than any african country ....

any infrastructure in south africa is for south-africans and those living in south africa ... so u really dont have any point

Rossikk: Then don't say spiteful stuff like "influential my rectum". Respect the country if you want to be respected.

gbammmmmmmmmmmmmmm

[quote author=mondi_cheeks]No offence but even Ghana is much more influential than Nigeria [/quote]lmao

kandiikane: Is that so? With all this and majority of the population live in poverty? It's like going out, praising and patting yourself for feeding homeless people whilst your family is at home dying one by one from starvation.

are u living in poverty and starvation?

omonnakoda: Why not just read what others have to say. Must you comment even if you have NOTHING of value to add.

fashizie: Dude you are the 1 dats so uninformed....reasonings like dis makes niaja a sham n d politicians bask in stpid pretence...people are suffering n dere is infrastural decay.dats the reality on ground.

so how is he uniformed ? becos he didnt reason like u huh? thinking the whole country eat like dogs ...live under 150naira a day? why cant u counter his post in reasonable manner and lets analyze it together

Eze Promoe: [color=crimson]There are so many aspects in which you can compare the influence of these two countries. Which are:

Infrastructure: South Africa

Economy: South Africa

Establishments (owned by locals): Nigeria

Wealth (acquired by locals): Nigeria

Military: Nigeria

Politics: Nigeria

Entertainment: Nigeria

Culturally: Nigeria

Tourism: South Africa

Celebrities (of all genres) : Nigeria[/color]

Please note that, the question isn't 'who's better than the other' but 'who's more influential than the other'. By right, criterias like infrastructure are not suppose to appear on my list but i have to do that just to be fair to South Africans.
Your infrastructures do not in any way affect other African countries.

another lovely analysis

idike: South Africa is a member of BRICS
Nigeria a member of OPEC
Someone should do the comparison

The BRIC countries comprise Brazil,Russia, India,and China. South Africa, therefore, is not a member of BRIC. In terms of comparism Nigeria has a large market an this makes it more influential than SA, while SA has a cost advantage when it comes technology and infrastructures. Considering the rate at which both economies are growing, Nigeria has potential to overtake SA as Africa super power in some years to come.

nigeria is currently the member of mints ...google that

Fuelish: those who suffer acute inferiority complex always make silly comparisons so they can feel better with their inadequacies.crap

u mean like gaynians (aka nigerian wanabes) stupiid goat

souldust: @toskarity i think you are misinformed about issues in Nigeria. Contrary to your view, most nigerians have food to eat. You probably based your point on the idea that we all live below a dolar per day. But let me let you know that in the urban centres, fewer people live below a dollar per day and in rural areas, one dollar can buy you three sqaure meals.

If we are that poor as you have claimed, why then are consumer companies making more profit here in Naija than in any other country? Dont tell me it is our population. Becos population doesnt buy comodities. It is money we use to secure goods and services

so if companies are making more profit here in Naija, then it is becos we have more people who can afford those comodities than anywhere else on the continent.

lovely analysis

na big sin o.. Play cheap prank on anyone and see urself thrown to hell fire by all merciful loving God

wetin come concern us?

hehehehe minds of africans 4 u

how can there be peace without justice?
has amnesty solved mend issue?
how can u give amnesty to sum1 that is ready to die for the course he believed in. Did they even want the amnesty?

The best amnesty u can give to any islamist/terrorist is to send him to his 72 virgins asap

kill him and anyone that harbour him b4 he kill en masse simple

so are u saying all that happens only in nigeria?

well nigeria will only break in ur dream

he can share position with oscar who is not so consistent... I dnt tink he will get automatic first team slot at barca either

[quote author=Mr. Globe]my friend keep quiet. Am reporting your post for derailment and tribalism. Why bring tribalism into an innocent thread. you want us not to talk about a man molesting little kids he is taking care of because you are insecure about your tribe. That's your own problem[/quote]so, in ur mind the way chino comdemned the crime is the best way to do it ryt?

so what has orji done in the east that would encourage indigbo to come home? I just dnt think igbo's should allow this man to be their mouth piece

lol one of the reasons i relocated back to naija i only go for holidays now sorry hun

[quote author=babe_online]please Nigerians we need to stop listening to Ghananians music. Now they are all over youtube and other social media sites talking about how we like to ''claim'' things that do not belong to us. Ghananians are very rude and disrespectful.I HATE GHANANIANS AND GHANA!!!! [/quote]lol who cares about gaynians they can whine all they wants ...we will always be their father and great uncle anytime any day
