What he said is the truth. Black SAns are very traumatized and their society has been torn from the relics of apartheid. Originally, they're not much different from other Africans but this blight called 'apartheid has done damages. The question is: for how long shall they continue to show the symptoms of the trauma? They're creating more problems for themselves. They need to wake up and see that nothing is holding them down again but themselves. What stops an average SAn from being a professional doctor or nurse or Engineer and mass producing such people to the point of exporting them? You have the schools and the support of government. What's the problem?

It's the same thing affecting many African-Americans. Their history of slavery and discrimination has an impact on individual self-esteem which curtails personal ambition.

GloShare:
That's because the people are extremely hungry.

Tackle hunger and see how the people react.

Nigerian politicians have mastered the art of weaponizing poverty.

Go and sit down. Are you more ''hungry'' than people in Somalia or Niger Republic? You never chop today? Mr hungry. Abeg face matter joor. The problem is greed and moral laxity among the people. Even a middle class guy whose brother is made a minister will expect ''goodies'' from his newly 'set' bro. What has hunger got to do with that? They were tearing chicken before the appointment.

DeWisedon:
Those people attacking shoprite will still foolishly recharge their MTN lines and make calls with it and also subscribe to DSTV and GOTV today instead of breaking their Simcards and damaging their DSTV if really they want to boycott SA products....

South Africans are there attacking Nigerians and their businesses and we are here looting Nigeria owned businesses inside shoprite mall amd burning down MTN buildings where Nigerians are working.
Its still a Win Win Situation for South Africa
Una sure say we get sense at all?

Must we behave foolishly like South Africans
Can lack of proper education be the cause of all these in Africa

MTN's income from its 65 million Nigerian subscribers accounts for a full ONE THIRD of its core revenue. MTN uses those billions in profit to pay salaries to its thousands of black workers in SA. MTN also pays corporate tax to the SA govt from those profits. Multiply that by 150 big SA companies operating in Nigeria, and it is CLEAR that SA will be hurt if its Nigerian operations are significantly disrupted.

In strictly financial terms, SA stands to lose far more from a standoff with Nigeria because:

1) Nigeria is by far its biggest African MARKET, worth countless billions of dollars, and

2) It's major firms are operating there to service that market.

If you are quarrelling with your customer, it is you, the trader, that loses, because your customer can go elsewhere to buy.

In fact I hear the Chinese are licking their lips at the prospect of SA firms leaving Nigeria.

pennyland:
Here in my country police protect South Africa biz, while there own police are no where to be found,abi dey don bribe our police .but am not in support of breaking in to people shop's.

Nigeria is behaving like a civiilized country and should be commended for its restraint and sense of responsibility.

missjo:
Something should be done as quickly as possible. We can't have two of the strongest economies in Africa at each other's throats like this.
It's a disgrace in the eyes of the world.

Dude, regional superpower rivalry is nothing new on this earth. The entire Europe went to war twice over it in the last century. In fact we have a lot more peaceful rivalry in Africa. This duel between Nigeria and SA will not escalate beyond this sporadic street violence, bad as it is.

Xisnin:
Publicity stunt.
Are they willing to evacuate the over 50 thousand Nigerians in SA?
Most don't even want to live because that is where they make their living
and only need peace to conduct their business.

The rash FG rushed to withdraw Nigeria's Ambassador to SA leaving Nigerians
in a more precarious situation. Who will now represent Nigerians living in SA?

So we should all be useless like you and just do nothing? I don't think so.

Air Peace To Evacuate Stranded Nigerians From South Africa

Nigerian airline sends massive Boeing 777 to South Africa
[img]https:///4660/25685631267_1e69e696ea_b.jpg[/img]


Nigerian carrier, Air Peace, says it is willing to evacuate Nigerians to complement efforts of the Federal Government to check the death of Nigerians residing in South Africa.

The Airline’s Chief Operating Officer, Mrs Oluwatoyin Olajide, in a letter addressed to the Minister of Foreign Affairs, Geoffrey Onyeama, on Wednesday, urged the Federal Government to facilitate the rescue of stranded Nigerians in South Africa.

Olajide described the xenophobic attacks on Nigerians in South Africa as an unfortunate event.

She said, “We cannot fold our hands and watch our fellow Nigerians being killed by South Africans.''

“To this end, Air Peace is willing to support the Nigerian government‘s efforts in this matter by deploying our Boeing 777 aircraft immediately to South Africa to evacuate Nigerians back home.”

She said the Federal Government should ask the Nigerian Embassy and the South African Government to rescue stranded Nigerians by transporting them to the airport to enable the airline to evacuate them back to Nigeria.

The Chairman of the airline, Mr Allen Onyema, while sympathising with the Nigerian victims’ families who lost their lives and properties in the attacks, said Air Peace decided to bring back Nigerians in support of the action already taken by the Federal Government.

Onyeama was said to have welcomed the offer and said it would be a relief to the government and Nigerians who might be stranded in South Africa.

Very childish talk.

jumobi1:
Abeg o. This is not the plan. China will just deal with us sharply. China isn’t Nigeria that’ll let foreigners play with its citizen.

China will ''deal with us sharply''. How?

They will drop bombs on Nigeria because of the actions of some miscreants, thus ending their multi-billion dollar investments here? Some of you are just plain dumb!! Tomorrow you will claim you went to school.

KLEINBASS:
Trump knows that a Nigerian is good for nothing but drugs and all sorts of illegality..

That's your mother, you mean. Animal.

KidsNEXTdoor:
Buhari effect continues

A failed country with a failed President

Oh shut up and get lost.

delishpot:
YINMU. When Libya was burning did Nigerians there agree to come home? Did GEJ not send a plane and they told him Libya on fire is better than naija? Those peeps in SA would not enter that plane back home.

Childish post. As if SA is being financed by Nigeria.

You are a LIAR. The planes that were sent to Libya to bring Nigerians home were FILLED TO THE BRIM with Nigerians, and they came back home, with many returnees interviewed on TV publicly regretting their decision to leave Nigeria.

Abacha was a no-nonsense general, that's for sure.

He wouldn't have stood for this.

But don't forget that his was a military regime, so there are actions he could take instantaneously, that would be a lot more problematic for a civilian president like Buhari.

MetaPhysical:
I dont see what the Minister said to be xenophobic or racist.

Why should they surrender their city to foreigners? What is the rationale for such a clueless action?

And the solution to that is killing the foreigners?

You reason like a beast. Hitler would be proud of you.

If you feel that way, why not just deport them instead of attacking and killing them, and looting their shops?

Barbaric people.

madenigga:
Bigger Low I.Q clown, someone with this portfolio is not poor,
Someone who was Transport Minister
Minister of Mines and Steel Development
President of Opec
Petroleum minister

Apart from that her Husband is a former governor of Imo and Abia state.

There's an element of possibily that it could be hers, and there are elements of possibilities that it was acquired with proceeds of corruption

You reason like a person soaked in corruption.

So she must be stupendously wealthy because she was once a Transport Minister? And minister of mines and steel?

Do you know the salaries of those positions?

lilbest4:
that's not my job, fool, I'd say grow some balls and attack your attacker.

LOW IQ mosquito brain.

Or should we just say school dropout?

ultimate77:
Black is Black.. always there are a bunch of them with black heart. i rest my case.

Do you realise that white people slaughtered 150 million of themselves in the last century?

Bunch of them with white heart. i rest my case.

lilbest4:
Africans will have mouth to be talking about racism

Slaveboy, your job is to condemn discrimination WHEREVER you see it.

Akanbiedu:
Since our black brothers started running that country, things have been going on the downward spiral.

This is not a manifestation of violent people rather of gradually failing state.

Here we go with more self-hate garbage. FYI, South Africa has grown economically in leaps and bounds since the end of apartheid rule. The economy has expanded under black rule. Yes they have problems with xenophobia, but so does the USA, and I haven't heard you call them a 'failed state''.

^^
Get back on a slave ship and go pick some cotton. It's where you belong, mosquito brain.

lilbest4:
go and sit down my friend. Nobody from generation was ever a slave. There is 0% chance of me being a slave. Now I understand your pain, slave.

go and sit down my friend. Nobody from generation was ever a slave.

Pardon? What does that mean? If you can't speak English you can try pidgin.

It was even whites that fought to abolish slave.

There were thousands of black abolitionists, and numerous slave rebellions. You don't know this because you don't read.

The blacks over there was hounded and sold by your ancestors and they had no mouth

The history of slavery is well beyond your level of study. Kindly stick to what you actually know, which has to be very little.

lilbest4:
all the "say no to racism" bullshit you fools have been shouting for hundreds of years what has it done? The earlier you fools wake up and realise that you don't beg people not to hate or abuse you the better for you.
Look at this idiot talking about white slaughtering blacks when the news of your fellow blacks being slaughtered by blacks in South Africa is still on every front page.
So if people hate and kill you what you do is cry? Fucck off my mention you little wimp

Little slaveboy with a mosquito's IQ, it is not called ''crying'', to protest against injustice.

It was constant protests and agitation that led to the fact that you (whom I assume to be black), and your future kids, can go anywhere you want on earth and not be hounded or killed.

It was blacks who PROTESTED, RIOTED, AND DIED IN THEIR MILLIONS who made that possible for YOU today.

That fact alone destroys your argument. Without that thing you call ''crying'', by blacks, you would today be a slave.

Of course you are way too dumb and ignorant to see the connections being made. I don't expect you to research these matters further. That's way beyond your capacity or inclination.

lilbest4:
lol you are the slave here, crying because your fellow man insulted you. Do you know how that makes black people look like to the world? They view you and your kind with pity

You are an imbecil.e with a very low IQ. Your job in this world is to contribute to making it a better place, not a worse place.

All men are equal in the eyes of God. Didn't your parents ever teach you that?

Racial abuse is cruel and inhuman, and supporting it makes you a beast.

lilbest4:
is this one not a monkey, why can't you call them white monkey?
Asians that people used laughed at, since they upped their game can you make jest of their height and face shape anymore?
Bunch of weak black fools

Slaveboy. Go and learn about the phenomenon of racism and stop making a fool of yourself.

Mexico is just as buoyant and developed as the white Eastern European countries. That hasn't stopped Mexicans from being the victims of vicious hate and racism from white supremacist groups, led by Mr Racist himself, 'president' Trump.

Indians have made ''great strides'' in tech and economic development. That hasn't stopped them being victims of racist attacks in the US, Germany and the UK.

Even the highly successful white 'Jews' of Europe were slaughtered IN THEIR MILLIONS only a few decades ago, by Europeans who could hardly distinguish themselves from them racially.

So to assume that somehow if Africa became the new Japan or something, it would make any dent on white racism, is a sign you know ABSOLUTELY NOTHING about the phenomenon of racism.

lilbest4:
fucck off you little wimp.

Thanks, slaveboy.
