@ RSA
I love DJ Cleo too. More so ever since his hair went back to its original colour. I esp lyk "How low can you go"

However, I'm here to talk about the whole xenophobia issue.

I absolutely agree with Gamine. It really has to do with an inferiority complex.

South Africans are very insecure and they have every right to be. The Zimbabweans come into your country and take your jobs (menial jobs that you guys are too lazy to do). You guys feel threatened by the foreigners and that's how xeno became a huge issue in South Africa.

Anyway, I partly understand. I can't imagine if Ghana invaded Nigeria, thing is Nigerians are not lazy, we handle our own affairs. Invasion of foreigners or not, there's no excuse to be mean to residents in your country. Thank God Naija is far from that, everyone is so welcome.

Its just a good thing that there are still educated ones

who are nice and know how things should be.

good then, text an address to me.or better still tell me how you want it.anybody down for proverb text 08055164704,07034455748. seems like im drowning proverb but blast it, i call it promo snd i aint asking for ish.

Mzekezeke wey dey copy Lagbaja

I was in Nigeria for the first time two month ago,but I was in Lagos.sadly for only three days and it was business/conference not leisure.So Im planning to visit Abuja for leisure and spend at least a week in the capital.

One by one satement means I need a break between signing autographs Dont worry I will bring my wife.

And one of my fav band is 340mil and the I like is 'after midnight hours'.I think the band origianaly come from mozambique and now they are based in South.

@Shilling I aggree with you that xeno is not good and it must be stamped out,but saying South Africans are lazy?it shows the kind of attitude people/foreigner have when they arrive in the country,if you've been to South you will notice that most of our infrustrures where build during apaartheid,black people of south africa are the one who where building all this beautiful roads,buildings and other infrustructures you see today,but our people where paid almost nothing they where like slaves in their own land.Now fast forward to 1994,the new goverment had to address issues that where neglected during apaartheid times and one of the main issue was workers rights,the goverment could not let people be exploited by whites who continue controlling the economy.Labour movement where formed and aggreement where signed and people had better and save working enviroment and where also payed well.

But some other companies started illegally hiring illigal immigrants from Zimbabwe and Mozambique and because this people have no documentation they where exploited and where paid almost nothing.Goverment failed to control the influx of illigal people in the country and this practices became popular with business(whites) because they made huge profits.

Now as a unskillful South African it means you must compete with someone who don't care about safe working enviroment,who will take half wage,who is not paying tax,who does not care about retirement funds and most importanly who you feel undermined what you stand and fought for exploitation.
Yes you can say this people want to earn a leaving as well since they come from trouble countries but the question is at whos expense?And you know what a poor uneducated,drunk person do when he is frustrated?He fights.

In South Africa there is currently skills shortage and lots of skilled people accross Africa and the world came through the right channels and get work and they are getting all the benefits and contributing to the economy just like any SA citizen.

Do you know that in South Africa today it is estimated that there are 10 to 15 million people legally or illigally  from accross the continent?
Majority of them live peacefully accros our country,what you saw in your TV was small number of poor people venting out their anger on govermnet to the innocent people.

Shilling I'm not sure about your age but by any chance do you remember GHANA MUST GO CAMPAIGN(even big bags are still called ghanamustgo to this day) let by your govermnet?In south africa goverment never supported those attack,infact most of attackers are in jail as we speak and hopefully they will rot there.

How bout a song with all our artist condemning Xeno,the song could be tight,some thing like' We are the one' done by Michael JAckson in the 80ties

Gamine how and where do you watch it?do you guys have SABC's channels in your Dstv?Some one mention shizznizz on Etv.
