Angelfrost:
Symbolic?!! Lol...!

You wan explain symbolic to Southys?!! Okay na.

Nor be person wey go school dey understand grammar?!

Knowing how certain places are, dem suppose do this kind thing lowkey without noise or unnecessary publicity.

Everything shouldn't be showoff... Now, everywhere don burst.

Wetin no dey enter internet these days. No be their fault.

Iamzik:
It's not about expanations
Why do the coronation in the first place?

Because it was not intended to provoke and was misinterpreted.

See video below

Bastiver:
Exactly, So why is Igbo now given them excuse, cox no country we accept that.
Not even Igbo will accept that.
Since we all know South Africa are always looking for excuse to destroy things, why don't we just maintain our lane instead to prevent this.

You are correct. However an explanation was tendered last week but Southy no dey hear word either.

This one na to find something to disturb GNU government.

Angelfrost:
If yoi had called it "Igbo leader" or Igbo Association Chairman, would there have been any issue?!!

Nope... You just had to go overboard by doing a kingship ceremony and publicly call it a coronation right in the face of South Africans, who already seek opportunities to be xenophobic.

Bros abeg pull up the video again. They specifically clarified that the so called "king" was symbolic. You wan make I post am for you.

Iamzik:
Why must they do coronation for an Igbo king at all? This has become a trend lately. Same thing happened in Ghana.

Why can't Igbo people respect their host and live in peace

So Owambe party wey dem chop isi ewu and crown Igwe don turn to riot for Southy.

Please my friend Southy people are just jobless at home and looking for excuse to get their governments attention.

Nothing more Nothing less. A statment about this issue was sent last week and also this week offering an explanation.

Hungry man na cousin of mad man.

Peterobiisathie:
stop ungrateful to your host

What did they do their host.

Owambe people wey gather for hall dey chop isi ewu carry crown put for person head call am Igwe.

Abeg shift left.

Peterobiisathie:
We warned our brothers to stop their madness abroad

Which warning?

Humblesam:
But what's it with this Igbo kingship in someone else's country?
Why disrespecting your host 😌
This is getting out of hand....Now others are suffering for what they didn't do.
It's very unfortunate.

maybe you don't know SOuth African people. They will find any excuse to run on the streets to get attention from their government so much so that it is quite predictable now.

The Nigerian consulate and numerous organizations had reached out to various kingships and news centers to clarify the issue.

This one na early Monday morning toyi toyi

brain54:
The souties have gone mad again...

Matter wey Nigerian consulate don explain.

An idle mind is indeed the devils's workshop.

Its normal things in South Africa.

No be today dem start.

We are frankly tired of them at this point.

IronGalaxy:
Lol.. I obviously meant the one over there in Abegistan Sepuuku..

So you think none of us return home to Nigeria after spending years in the land of milk and honey.

IronGalaxy:
Lol.. You are not an unknown entity, that's my point. For example, I know how a group of Nigerian males acts like.. I've seen them many times in social settings like nightclubs, etc.. A Nigerian can never say the same about South Africans.. You have a lot to say about us, but you know very little.

There are a multitude of Nigerians who have had intimate interactions with your people including myself, so you are talking nonsense.

Maybe you are referring to the ones on Nairaland and if so, again they are not my issue. You can continue to educate them.

IronGalaxy:
And I doubt an average South Africa would care what you watch or support Sepuuku

Exactly I am just expressing my opinion on a Nigerian platform about the issue.

IronGalaxy:
Lol.. Tell your people that before calling us names.. like "lazy" or whatever, tell them to meet an actual South African first..

Tell them that. Its not my job as a non SOuth African.

IronGalaxy:
My idea of Nigerians is not based on this forum.. I've had interactions with Nigerians wayyy before I signed on this site, I see Nigerians almost every day, so I know exactly what I'm talking about.. Your people aren't exactly an unknown entity in SA, unlike South Africans to Nigerians

And nope, you can't pay me enough to travel to nIaja sorry

As I said limited exposure to Nigerians. I can expand on this but then again I think you know what I mean.

IronGalaxy:
Hahaha.. they've now diminished because we got something from it. Isn't so? .classic Sepuuku

Piennar was a baller, that's not my argument. My argument is that he came from worse Bafana teams thsan the current one.. take it, leave it

My point is I don't care. I would watch a baller like him all day than a lackluster team winning local championship games.

IronGalaxy:
Speak against it. These are the issues affecting you on your doorstep, not the so-called "xenophobia" of far-flung South Africa. You have misguided priorities

Thank you for the suggestion of what my priorities should be.

I have the same suggestion for you. You should prioritize travelling to Nigerian to come understand the people much better as your idea of them is very limited to Nairaland.

Let me know when you do and I will consider yours, no?

IronGalaxy:
Pointing fingers at others for the very same things you do, even more so.. is the very definition of hypocrisy..

But I am not a tribalist, nor do I condone or support it, How then can I be a Hyprocrite.

IronGalaxy:
Learn to read for comprehension not just to respond.. We achieved nothing with the likes of Pienaar, Zuma, Morris et al.. yet we got bronze at ivory coast Afcon and an improved FIFA ranking with this current crop. Facts of life

Quality of Afcon games has diminished therefore easier for you to show case a poor team and win games ergo achieving a better ranking.

IronGalaxy:
Point 2.. Never said it does.. you said this league has "average Pirates players' and im saying those "average" players played Russian roulette with your league champions Remo starts.. another fact of life

Refer to point one for your response. The likes of Pinear's quality of play remain etched in our memories forever. This current crop of players may win games but are lackluster.

IronGalaxy:
IHere's the thing.. we could be talking about climate change and you'll find a way in sneaking your beloved"xenophobia" in.. you've become a predictable bore Seppuku, always "xenophobia " this and that ,but nothing about your heart wrenching tribalism.. . gotta love the hypocrisy

Ahh Mfethu, I am only spreading the same propagandist rhetoric on nairaland about South Africans that circulates within your country about "A majority" of Nigerians, no?

This is not hyprocrisy.

IronGalaxy:
Yet.. with those same Steven Pienaars of this word we achieved nothing.. but we are playing better and getting results with the same "average players" from Kaizer chiefs et al.. Seppuku South African issues will give you heart palpitations

Please Please Please you cannot compare the skill level, entertainment, dedication, flare, football genius from the likes of Pinnear with those boring performances from your current squad.

IronGalaxy:
What you should be concerning yourself with, is sending a delegation to SA to learn how a proper league is run.. Sundowns toyed with your league champions, Remo Stars the last time , now that team was below average

A proper League does not equate to a greater pool of high performers.

#letOkonrepresenthiscountry!

KingCold:
confederation cup 2009

Steven Pinnear.

The days when South African football was played. Now we have just average players from Kaiser chiefs and orlando pirates making noise.

IronGalaxy:
Take your Okon then and stop whining..

First you must tell these players to stop representing other countries then we will talk. There's no Sefalosho last name from Switzerland from last I checked.

Thabo Sefalosho-Switzerland

Ryan de Vries – New Zealand

Keanu Baccus-Australia

Barteze:
Who are we?
Speak for yourself oooh you never can tell.

I will not support Xenophobic people who will chastise a young talent like Ime Okon who is a South African by birth and by ancestry and call for him not to represent his country .

Speak for yourself. I have said my own.

Barteze:
They deserve to celebrate abeg despite 3 points deduction they sailed through ahead of others in the group.

Let them celebrate for themselves. We are not supporting them please.

JaceBlaze:
"Xenophobia"🫪 meanwhile tribalism is a national pastime in his country...oookay

Speaking about pastime baba. We thought you guys were only chasing illegal foreigners. See video below on how your Zulu "patriots" get their rocks off even after this individual showed his papers.

Always looking for excuses to cause havoc, toyi toyi and loot.

"four legs goooood"........."Two legs baaaad"

I will join you and donate zonefree 's balls...

This is not the 2010 team with Tshabalala. I haven't seen a goal like that from them in a long time.

Mariangeles:
How come you always surface on threads about South Africa?
What do you have against them?

Have you been living under a rock?

Mariangeles:
What does abahambe mean?

A simple google search will give you an answer.

IronGalaxy:
What's next, Mr. One-track mind? propaganda? white monopoly capital? xenophobia? You're so predictable it hurts

I just said I like the yellow one. Calm down!

IronGalaxy:
Tick tock tick...just like clockwork..

You better stop watching those ticky tockers. It's getting too much into your head neh!

floss:
This jersey looks like palmerias football club jersey

I prefer the Yellow one, much brighter.

ChangetheChange:
This is the best bafana bafana jersey ever
South Africa 96 Nations Cup

At all that gold was too much and too many colors
