I am telling the truth, why should I keep quiet. You need to learn to be patriotic so that Nigeria can have income and function like all other countries.
We are tired with Nigerian migrating to other countries to be burdens.
You need to stop funding EPL by buying TV rights. Fund your own league and wake up from inferior mindset
Samantha125: So o kaonesha go nyenyefatsa province ya rena ba bangwe leina ka baka la gore batho ba ga ba go tsebe? O nyaka gore ge ba nagana ka Limpopo ba nagane ka a one big village jwale ka ge ma Amerika a nagana ka Afrika?
Ke tswa Limpopo, ke nyetjwe Free State and not Nigeria.
Sepukku: I am confused, you don't want them in your country or you don't want them running spaza shops and competing with you, which one?
I am sorry but I am quite blunt with my responses and though I can substitute such words with subtle ones it will not drive through the point that is intended.
The fact we don't want them in our country.
In General South Africa as a developed nation it has lots of jobs that needs people from outside to come and assist. we need foreigners to come and work in the mines, in the farmers , to work as garden boys and kitchen girls - most Nigerians are working well in this sectors and one is bothering them.
Sepukku: ITs not that you don't want to compete. It's that you are too st.upid to figure out how to succeed.
There is a difference.
I think you are missing a point,the fact is we don't want them in our country.
Normally I don't understand the mental state of people who insult people for no reason. Kindly why are you saying we are stu.pid? - was it necessary to insult us.
wealthtrak: Indeed. I'm glad you got the point. I get pissed off with some trolls when they insult indigenous South Africans especially men and stereotype them. There are hard working and successful South Africans too but generalized negative comments and confirmation bias NEVER works. Nigerians of whatever ethnicity in SA must respect SA folks and not act arrogantly because cultural etiquettes vary from country to country and from one ethnic group to the other even in the same country.
There is a brilliant Nigerian-American medical doctor (with a specialization in musculoskeletal therapies which is in demand) who left his job at Johns Hopkin University and returned to Lagos, Nigeria just 5 months ago with his family. His name is Dr. Julius K. Oni (who is of the Yoruba ethnicity from Ondo State) and his video from his Instagram account went viral online and some people thought he was stupid for returning to Nigeria after 25 years of being away. He has setup a world class facility in Nigeria, and has multimillion USD real estate investments as well. The media have interviewed him many times because of what he did and a lot of Nigerians in the Diaspora are determined to do what he is doing now.
In any event, there are Nigerians in the Diaspora who are offering their services online to Nigerian folks through telemedicine and video conferencing to solve problems and give training programs. So, this reduces the cost of traveling from the United States, United Kingdom, Canada, South Africa, or any part of the world.
wealthtrak: Let me come in to correct some of your assumptions here.
Some aspects of your post are very valid while the last paragraph is NOT entirely true.
There are many Diaspora Nigerian professional medical doctors, pharmacists, registered nurses (RNs), robotic engineers, software and tech professionals, sports men and women, etc, who are based in the United States, United Kingdom, Canada, Germany, Saudi Arabia and even South Africa who are doing very well at the top of their careers and have won several awards. They aren't toilet cleaners or house keepers like you said. There's also a large Nigerian-American, British-Nigerian, and a growing Canadian-Nigerian population in those countries who are involved in the local political space.
Google the names Adewale "Wally" Adeyemo who is a Nigerian-American of Yoruba ethnic descent and the current United States Deputy Secretary of the Treasury since 2021. The current State Surgeon General of Florida by the name Joseph A. Ladapo, MD, PhD, is a Nigerian-American who also serves as Professor of Medicine at the University of Florida. He is also of Yoruba ethnic descent in Nigeria. There is Dr. Philip Emeagwali, a Nigerian-American computer scientist originally from Onitsha in Nigeria who worked on semi-conductors and many more brilliant folks. Nigerians are doing very well abroad with the exception of some idiots who don't give a hoot about Nigeria's image and they delve into drug trafficking and pimping in SA and a few other countries relentlessly. This is the false image and stereotype you have because of the criminal actions of these few idiots, but the larger population of Nigerians are worth more than that. The SA intelligence agencies know what part of Nigeria they come from but you guys keep attacking all the 250 ethnic groups in Nigeria for crimes committed by a few people.
Countries such as India, the Philippines, China, Egypt, etc, have a huge number of their citizens living and working in the Diapora while sending money back home yearly for the development of the families and countries as remittances. Nigeria with about 250 distinct ethnic groups and languages with a combined large population of over 200 million is NOT left out as this is consistent with countries that have large populations
Thank you very much for the good explanation.
Yes you are correct, there is Nigerian that are doing good in South Africa. FYI, there are a lot of professors from Nigeria in south African universities, there are lot of legit doctors, engineers, scientists from Nigeria in South Africa.
Just imagine if all Nigerian doctors, engineers and scientists who are working in diaspora can go back to Nigeria. Nigeria could be a super power country in the world. In fact
Sepukku: I hope they close all the spaza's too then you can take over the township economy and we will wait to see if you will prosper which in my humble opinion I highly doubt.
Truly speaking Indians and asians are better than us in running spaza shops, that is why we don't want to compete with them. They must go so that we can compete among ourselves.
Ernesthugo: oh well i wish u all the best,if i may ask u why are u on nairaland, why dont u create a randyland and focus on your own nation
Another reason South Africans are on this forum is because they realised that black people are undermined throughout the world and Nigerians are the cause.
UltraSolid: You're a clown. There is no comparison mate. There are no neutral lands of opportunities outside Africa, like UK and USA for example, where South Africans dare look Nigerians in the face. In the USA and UK I know well first hand the best medical professionals of African origin, for example, are Nigerians by faaaaaarrrrrr.
What are black South Africans known for? Nothing aside been recognised as the most repellent xenophopes of Africa. You lot are a dull, colourless and insipid example of black Africans. No one reckons with you waste of space negroes.
Inferior mindset - you just proved that you have this problem.
How can you tell me about UK and US, as South Africans we believe that our medical institutions are powerful than of US and UK. We have lot of patient from US and UK here in South Africa. You will never here south Africans going outside for medical purposes.
Your people are still poor and toyi toying infront of spaza shops instead of the JSE.
Thank you, I am sure that you know that all foreign owned spaza will be closed by the end of this month. Lucky Nigerians are not owners, spaza are owned by indians mostly. SA Citizens mandated that spazas should be closed.
We cannot strike at JSE because all companies at JSE SA blacks own more than 50 percent of shares.
Ernesthugo: FOR THIS YES YOU ARE RIGHT,BUT U ALL STILL XENOPHOBIC HOW CAN CHIDINMA BEAR THE CONSEQUENCE OF WHAT SHE HAS NO IDEA ABOUT AS A CHILD. YOU ALL DVMB FVCKS
You are correct, in a normal environment we treated her unfairly but when we use law we are correct.
I really support what you call xenophobic, most people in africa they don't challenge their govt instead they are to other countries to be burdens.
For example South Africa pushed Botswana, Namibia, Swaziland and Zambia citizens to go back and now their countries are doing well.
The problem with Nigerians and Zimbabweans are too afraid of their government, when we chase them at South Africa instead of going back to their countries, they run to other countries.
merits: South African people are toxic people I stayed their before I move out of their mentally derail country so I know what I'm saying but if whites sneeze they all shiver but their fellow black race are the people they can raise 💪 muscle to,very useless set of people on earth 🌎
Until Nigeria is fixed the whole world will undermine Nigerians
Tradepunter2: These South African bastards needed to be taught a lesson..... They have no right to destroy the lives of hardworking Nigerians..... This is getting out of hand
In South Africa justice works unlike in Nigeria. How can a child teach a parent a lesson.
