JuanDeDios:

There's a national consensus around anti-immigration sentiments in South Africa. Like I've argued before, it's not a cultural problem (an inherent hate of foreigners). The reasons are far more mundane - economics (the perception that foreigners are taking their jobs and opportunities) and the framing of crime as a foreigner problem.

The few influential people who see the danger in what's going on can't speak out, because they will face repercussions. You can ask Julius Malema about this. And you can see how the arts minister is calling out the justice minister.

Note that anti-immigration sentiments are common in all countries with high levels of immigration. It's why you had BreXit. It's why characters like Trump are in the White House. The South African flavour is the violence that attends the matter. I think the government could have prevented that by tightening border controls and deporting illegal residents.

Of course, they will soon find out that sending the foreigners home doesn't solve their problems. This matter get bia bia. I hope it's resolved peacefully in the end.

How do you resolve what is not the "source" of the real problem which is plaguing the country, which is corruption, government ineptitude and slow economic growth.

You send those Malawians back and, in a few months, they will be back. You might be able to reduce the numbers but for a while but if the real problems are not addressed this will not go away unless of course we want to go the extreme end and start unaliving people.

See how they just left him to go.

Haydens:
As predicted. Take your sweet prophet.

You don yan too soon o!

They are playing for goal differential now.

sweetjohn:
Morroco is Africa champion. What are you even saying? Pls google to help yourself

I agree.

heartofcity12:

Without a doubt. The Senegalese need an instinctive goal scorer. They are wasting too much time up front.

Tabletuner:
Olise should have gone score by himself

The boy na player o!

spencekat:
Na Pk be that, VAR come help Senegal

No be penalty, He didn't touch him.

BennyDGreat:
Has it worked?

How you show your dissatisfaction is very critical in life. It can improve or worsen things.

They are stubborn people but they will learn.

Northsouth:

Abeg na only u dey your problem, no carry anybody join your situation in life

U fit read news, u read am finish u con dey ask irrelevant question and u dey expect rational answer.
U will surely get more unreasonable with this kind of mentality

Go and read, u will see it clearly instead of waiting for crystal clear clarification

But na you sabi pass me now. You suppose lay your wisdom ontop our head.

IronGalaxy:
Low eye queue stuff.. they're "lazy" rhetoric, totally anti-intellectual argument..

That 'lazy" thingy bugs the hell out of you huh?

Northsouth:

I thought you were going to clarify for us.

Northsouth:

Fine then make Dem leave their country and stop complaining join

Make who leave Illegal or legal or everybody?

Northsouth:
even refugee self from niger dey this useless Nigeria wey u see so
Everybody no fit go only one place
The world is a bigger place than all that play play
No whine urself.
Migrants dey everywhere
Who say e no gree make Dem stay say e no gree
Shey Na by force to stay
South Africa say make Dem dey go
Nigeria must go oooo

We don ready since to go.

Northsouth:
both that your ivory coast and Kenya are useless countries
U can see why south Africa is doing better
Na why u no go hear pim from their side
South Africa self go even happy self say u dey compare Dem with Dem
Because the difference is clear

but migrants and refugees dey those countries. Why dem go there if those places useless.

All of them for go South Africa na!

Haeg:
You haven't traveled more than me, trust me.
The primary reason Nigerians travel is becaue they are fed up with their country, want a better life. Instead of holding the leaders accountable everyone wants to travel, people are selling family properties to travel, a father sending all his children abroad for greener pastures. Sit yourself down and think, ask yourself why is it that the underdeveloped countries are having the mass migration problem? Why are we not seeing a mass migration of Americans to Iran or Ghana? .
These developed countries are keeping their leaders in their toes, not running away with every opportunity. We have to tell ourselves the simple truth.
Our leaders are treating us this bad because we allowed it.

What are your solutions?

Sowore has been telling us to come out and cause a revolution. He has been telling you to vote for him.

Seun Kuti has been constantly trying to conscientize the masses to revolt. Do you support him. Are you on the streets?

Who did you vote for?

Did you even vote?

Only about 10% of Nigerians are outside Nigeria for your information. The rest are still here. If the remaining 90% are not doing anything. Why are you disturbing that group who have chosen to leave.

Northsouth:
it's because you don't read to understand well enough, u only read to respond
Anyway u should know that ah dey wash Nigeria self for complaining about south Africa now
And whether Nigeria own that time na working or not, ah no wan even care about the irrelevant past now
But today, a working country say make una commont from him country and u dey talk about stupidity
El sir
Let south Africa breath
When a working country makes a policy, nothing like stupidity for there

60 million people say 5 million people ( legal and illegal) dey choke dem.

Ivory coast wey get 3 million, we never hear pim from them.

Kenya get 2.7 million we never hear noise from that side.

I hear you.

Northsouth:
it's not stupidity sir
It's a working country policy
If you see it as stupidity and you are in a country that is not working
Then you should know who the stupidity is for already

but you said Nigeria did it and we should let South Africans do it.

So was Nigeria a working country when they did it or was it economic pressures that prompted these incidents. Which one?

Northsouth:
Nobody should come here and start blaming south Africa.

Africans self too wicked to the extent of witchcraft

There was a time Nigeria do Ghana must go

Oh una don forget

E reach una own turn now, bean cake turn to stone abi

Make Dem chase everybody wey Dem wan chase abeg

So your reasoning is that because Nigeria did Ghana must go. We must let other Africans do it. When they finish then we are all equal in S.t>UiPidty.

Thank you. You do well!

Counterigbolies:
if she's an illegal immigrants anything can be done to her, u people seems to focus on south Africa but u don't care about European countries doing same

Yes, illegal immigrants are animals. They are not human beings. "Anything" can be done to them because they crossed borders.

Who rented the shop to her as an illegal?

Who patronizes her shop?

Where does she live?

Does She pay rent there?

As far as Europe is concerned. This is what is known as a strawman arguement. We are dicussing Afrophobia. If you want to talk about European racism open a thread.

Counterigbolies:
who send u?

Must u ruin them cos u stood by them?

They said they don't want illegal immigrants and drug dealers in their country

That's not too hard to ask guy

So taking over a woman's hair dressing salon is fighting drug dealers.

SMH.

esnbrutality:
I have seen the flight manifest and its obvious..

You cant tell me that

Kayode
Taiwo
All the Ayos listed
Bidemi
Mufutau

Etc etc etc..with different surnames are IGBO.

No mind tr.i.ba.list bros. They see what it is they want to see.

mejai:
Nigeria should start this, not to south Africa, but to illegal people in this country. Especially, chad, Niger and etc crossing our northern border to cause havoc here.

Hausa man from Niger is illegal in Sokoto. You never live for North before ba!

IronGalaxy:
Stop forcing people to think like you..

You must go bek and complain on your own forums.

Omoawoke:
Unfortunately, no one can force everyone to do that.

Humans still have basic choice where to live and once they do it right and legally and have the resources, they can and will continue to migrate till the ends of time..

Migration did not start yesterday, it’s been since inception of the earth..
Even animals migrate

I agree and there isn't one place on the planet that does not constitute people who have not migrated frmm one corner of the earth for it to become what it is.

We are unfortunately wired as human beings to "fear" the other, once an identity is consolidated around a nationality, ethnicity, language or tribe. An innate prejudice as a means of self preservation and survival.

Managing the influx of people into a nation state especially one that is relatively considered to be thriving is a difficult challenge.

The rights of citizens versus Human rights. Which is supreme?. It's a conundrum.

IronGalaxy:
You're huffing and puffing, trying to shut everyone who's thinking out of that "they are xenophobic" box.. its pathetic to watch

I am having a conversation with my people.

If you don't like it, you can go bek to your forums and complain.

sulaak:
There is nothing to call out lets focus on Nigeria and our useless leadership. SA is a distraction from the bigger problem in Nigeria.

The SA can go onto the street and force the change that they want, why can't Nigeria force change in Nigeria.

So All the protests, marches, Sowore, VDM, Seun Kuti, Dele farotimi and the likes who are constantly leading marches, fighting the government should not be counted.

Na South Africa wan show us way.

Abeg.

sulaak:
You want SA to become the next Nigeria or DR Congo. How has freedom of movement from Niger, Chad, Mali , Sudan benefited Nigeria. SA needs to close it borders.

Please tell them to stop issuing visas to the rest of Africa as well cause at this juncture, they don't want to see any Africans there so why is the VFS and their cohorts scamming people and pocketing their non refundable fees.

sulaak:
You now want pay back from helping a country in distress. Lets fix Nigeria and respect SA freedom and independent.

My brother we respect their sovereignty, but we must call out AFrophobia when we see it.

The illegal immigration conversation can be had without allowing people to dehumanize, criminalize and project their fears on you.

IronGalaxy:
Call it what you may, it makes no difference anymore

So I am not the only one who sees through the B.S.

Thank God.
