LeSudAfricaine: What is contradictory about letting people know Xenophobia is alive and well in SA. I have singing that tune since 2008 and have been vindicated. Simple because your government managed to sweep it under the rug for the time being doesn't mean its gone. Root causes haven't been dealt with and until then SAYNOTOXENOPHOBIA!!! 1 Like |

morpheus24: #SayNoToSouthAfricaPhobia, in fact. What you are fighting against is Morpheus phobia cause that's what you experienced when you were in SA. You are like a guy who practises misogyny, who is then surprised when women reject him. The more he fails to score a girlfriend, the more he hates women, the more the women keep rejecting him. Its a cycle, my friend. You are frustrated and are a victim, but you have yourself to blame for that. If you were truly fighting for justice, you'd be fighting against the ills in your own country. But no, you don't care about that. Its SA that you care about, cause they hurt you. 3 Likes |

DieVluit: Your feeble attempts at trying to rationalize the reason behind my motives will leave your head spinning. If you wish to continue this stare down competition. Go ahead. Yes, you are projecting that anger you feel towards your father for abandoning you when you were born and shacking up with another woman in Kwazulu natal. I am not your father, Dievluit.

morpheus24: Maybe for holiday or maybe for something more. Every country has its own issues. People still go to Libya and Syria because they believe they will make something out of it. The guys that were giving us useful info and guidelines have all backed down because of you peoples fight. You guys should kindly calm down so that they can come and continue. 1 Like |

kachiz: Sorry. I had a colleague(lady) I was speaking with last week whose family was also planning a trip and she too was concerned about the recent xenophobic acts and I tried to let her know that social media did exaggerate the issue. You can travel to South Africa on holiday, nothing will happen to you as long as you do the usual tourist thing. The country likes when you are coming to spend money with them I would strongly suggest Cape town as your destination because it is a lot more tourist friendly. You will loose a lot of the "African" feel if you do go there. If you wish to experience a more African vibe then rent a vehicle (if you can drive right hand drive) and make your way to Kruger national park. If you are coming to South Africa to Hustle, please stay back, you will experience Xenophobia without a doubt. 2 Likes |

morpheus24: Lol, no I am not planning to go there for hustling. My sister lives in Durban with the husband, they said the unrest wasn't everywhere like the way the media made it look. If I am going there, it will be for MSc . |

kachiz: You are better off then going to the general inquiries Visa to South Africa thread here on the travel section. Lots of info for prospective students who wish to study there. The OP's circumstances in Nigeria shows that he took a huge risk in relocating to SA and as you know Nigerians are very stubborn, until they see with their eyes. If you warn them, they will say you want to block their progress. Even if you do finish school there, it is still difficult to come out and get something. The country is experiencing around 36% unemployment rate with the majority unskilled and under skilled making up the bulk. Professionals such as engineers, Doctors and the likes fair better because there is a need for them. All others will struggle for quite a number of years before they find their feet. South Africa of 2000 is not the same as the one of today. Many social and economic issues are mounting and it is not the el dorado many seem to think it is. 1 Like |

morpheus24: What exactly is the legacy of apartheid and what about it? You just say things because they sound nice. It's been shown already that you know zero about South Africa. Also, the legacy of apartheid is clearly better than the "present and future" of Nigeria, given the movement of refugees from Nigeria to South Africa. You included. #SayNoToSAPhobia.

morpheus24: The feebleness that is apparent for all to see is on your side. Even your countrymen have pretty much distanced themselves from you. You are a loner on the thread like you were a loner in South Africa. You know why you are a loner, my friend? You know why you are rejected both online and offline? You have no ability to attract other human beings. Be it girls, fellow Nigerians or South Africans. You then, having failed to win the other people over, decide you will hate them. But your hate for them simply pushes them further away. This then frustrates you to the point that you become obsessive. You are obsessive about South Africa for this very reason. But you only have yourself to blame for that. You are not a messenger. You are an outcast, my friend. The problem is not with South Africans. The problem is with you. The South Africans did not reject you because they are bad. They rejected you because you are not wanted by them cause of 3 Likes 1 Share |

DieVluit: Reverse Psychology 101 What are you doing on a Nairaland thread DieVluit: Projecting. I know your father left you when you were young. You must blame him for your abandonment issues. Again.... I am not your "father" Dievluit.... DieVluit: Nice try Psycho-analysis of subject Dievluit .... ...Projecting Key conclusion of subject Dievluit psycho analysis.................Abandonment issues. Key words to support conclusions of subject Dievluit ...........the key word "Rejected".....used severally in responses (See underlined above) "Tupac" reference indicates subject relates to this character.... Tupac also experienced abandonment issues specifically, biological father. Again no matter how hard you try to plant a "counterfeit thought" aka "inception" in weaker minds that read through your rantings about Morpheus, I am too smart for that psychological BS Like I said the rational and reason is lost to you and will only drive you insane....."Like a splinter in your mind, driving you mad" 2 Likes |
