Of all our 16 or 15 west african neighbours it's only ghana that envy nigeria and are reluctannt to pay their respect due to us and our sacrifices we've been making for the entire region.

deeobserver209: Nigeria would have finished higher had we participated fully in swimming. The question is don't we have white citizens in Nigeria? where are they? We can use them to represent us in swimming competitions. Its high time we give them that opportunity.
That's right. When it comes to swimming, you can't beat the whites.

Former slaves games known as Commonwealth Games... Tell me who is benefit from the commonwealth if not the queen who is the head on the commonwealth.
I refuse to align with anything colonial, why is the USA not part of the commonwealth? We all know Uncle Sam chase the biatch out...
Until we african reset our brains that there is nothing common in our freedom from the former slave owners and colonial masters, nothing good will come out of Africa.

PetroDolla3: you sent me a link to a bogus newspaper story as your evidence? didn't realse you shitnigerians were that stvpid grin grin grin grin fooolishness is well embedded in your collective DNA, walahi. at least as a human being with a bit of sense cant you apply a bit of rational thinking to whatever you read anywhere. you can't give what you don't have. or can you? shitnigeria does not have electricity so it can nnot give electrity to even the Republic of Benin. as a matter of fact, Ghana suppies electricity to to and benin and there ere plans to extend it to you shithole very soon. grin grin grin the fact that shitnigeria cannot produce electricity for its people in the 21st century is a confirmation that the country is cursed, as OBJ said,huh?

Alan Knott-Craig’s Three Reasons Not to Panic about South Africa
by Nicola on May 12th, 2014

Really, Don't Panic! Alan Knott-Craig, author of Really, Don’t Panic!, shares three reasons not to stress about the state of South Africa.

Talking on The Complimentary Breakfast on Jacaranda FM, Knott-Craig says his first reason would be economic fundamentals.

[b]“If you just look at the resources we have in the ground, there’s something like $5 trillion of resources sitting under the ground, waiting for opportunity,” Knott-Craig says. “And if you take into account that it was the gold that made South Africa, and that was only $1.5 trillion over a hundred years, we’ve still got a lot of runway”

Our mineral wealth DWARFS Naaigayria's oil and gas wealth thats DECLINING EVERYDAY. While we also have oil and exploring it like Kenya,Namibia.

SA is exploring her OIL AND GAS WEALTH just like Brazil explored after noticing they had same "BILLION TYPE/Barrels of oil" with ANGOLA and Namibia,RSA NW. Those who studied "GEOLOGY" might know what we mean. wink wink wink wink wink wink wink wink wink wink

After 60 billion barrles of oil and gas were disacovered in FALKLAND ISLANDS, South Atlantic near Argentina, Geologists and Marine Engineers believe RSA has oil also.

SO FAR RSA HAS 12-30 BILLION BARRELS OF OIL "GEOLOGICALLY APPROVED NOT DRILLED/UNTAPPED" LYING AROUND OUR OCEAN. OIL GIANTS FROM ALL OVER THE GLOBE HAVE MOVED TO SOUTH AFRICA SOME HAVE SECURED LICENCES TO EXPLORE.

Heres the latest findings from SA PETROLEUM AGENCY grin grin grin grin grin grin grin grin grin grin grin Port Elizabeth will be BUILDING FROM THIS OIL BOOM ONCE WE START DRILLING IN 2017 grin grin grin grin grin grin grin

Our league by far the RICHEST IN AFRICA AND EQUAL TO MLS OR CHAMPIONSHIP IN TERMS OF SALARIES better than some European leaguescry cry cry cry cry cry
[b][b]In soccer SOUTH AFRICA'S PSL CASTLE PREMIERSHIP is the richest soccer league in AFRICA is played in world class stadia and attracts players from all over Africa and Europe, including US. PSL salaries are comparable with MLS and Championship,UK and League One in France and Belgian League better than monst east European leagues. NOTE: These salaries below exclude the signing on fee that ranges between R20 Million/2Million pounds for top players and R5M 500 000 pounds for experienced players and R 500 000/ 50 000 pounds for youngstars. SA PSL players are swimming in MONEY and living HOLLYWOOD LIFESTYLE IN AFRICA'S ONLY "FIRST WORLD COUNTRY".FACT. grin grin grin grin

SA PSL SALARIES
TOP PLAYERS EARN
1. R300 000-R600 000 PER MONTH ($30 000-$60 000)
EXPERIENCED PLAYERS
2. R150 000-R250 000 PER MONTH.
AVERAGE PLAYER
3. R70 000-100 000 PER MONTH
YOUNGSTARS/NEW COMERS
4. R40 000-R50 000 PER MONTH our 18 yr olds play with cash.

Note: African players like Obi Mikel, Benjani (former Bolton & Man City), Enoh Eyong (Fulham and former Ajax),Shabani Nonda(former Monaco) and many players have played here before making it to Europe. grin grin grin grin grin[/b]

SA soccer changes only at national level (where players think theyr gud and complaicent )otherwise the league is good.
Betwen 1990-1994 most SA player were hungrier earned little salaries and were part of the team that won 1996 CAF cup and most made to Europe, then later helped SA qualify for 1998, 2002 world cups ahead of Ivory Coast and other African countries. Most of this Bafana generation were part of the FIRST EPL/ENGLISH PREMEIERSHIP African players that opened way for todays Essiens,Drogbas, etc...

Today SA PSL players richest African based players and complaicent unlike the generation before them.FACT. wink grin grin grin grin grin cool[/b]

They live in GOLD ESTATES AND DRIVE TOP SPORTS CARS (LAMBORGHINIS,ASTON MARTINS,PORCHES,LAND ROVERS etc..).
