vdGeist: Mark of high level discipline in Nigerian army, 59 troops will be PUNISHED for breaking the code of Nigerian battle bravery in the face of death. 59 out of 150,000 soldiers is an insignificant but we will still punish them, we Naijas don't accept nonsense in our military. The whole 50,000 South African army refused to go back and fight Seleka rebels, the SANDF gave some of them medals for cowardice. . 3 Likes |

An entire battalion of men, grippen, rooivalk, oryx were deployed for the counter attack, but the regional powers would not allow us. These are the facts. 2 Likes |

New African Military Profile: Zimbabwe Zimbabwe’s military has been badly affected by Western sanctions that have been in place for the last 13 years – the chief of the Air Force recently said his equipment had been degraded by a lack of spares as a result. Zimbabwe has consequently turned East, receiving significant military support from China, which has supplied hardware like K-8 jets and provided $98 million to fund the construction of the National Defence College, which was completed in 2013 Click here to read more about the Zimbabwe Defence Forces. |

agaugust: Bwahahahahahahahahahahaha!!!! What a joke!!! People tell me if there is anyone here who had ever seen cement with a brand of sephaku? @agaugust, SA is not Nigeria where you only find Dangote cements. Here we do not have a monopololy when it comes to cement industry like in Nigeria where Dangote is only having the show alone. In SA, he is going to compete with variety of brands which will put him where he belongs. I don't think his move will pay off in SA, instead he should have invested in somewhere else since the cement industry of SA is advanced and nowhere near to those of other African countries. Sephaku only wanted to use him as a cash cow to escape tough competition in SA. Dangote must not run after SA, they will suck him dry. 1 Like |

agaugust:what we are actually doing in nairaland is educating these black southies. They came here feeling fly without having a clue about their country and how it is perceived around the world. You hit them with a bad-azz post and they scream for the source or the website. I wouldn't really blame them, prior to '94 they were not allowed in schools in their own land. so they assume life began when they were asked to join the rest of civilizations in '94 |

Msauza:he is the richest man in africa. And companies in southafrica are having a hell of a hard time. The economy is shrinking, stagnant at best. If dangote is bringing in hard flow of cash, then he is going to have a field day. Larfage(spell check) is trying to compete with dangote by pulling its assets in nigeria and southafrica. Your cement boys know dangote is a monster. |

overhypedsteve: I told you that Nigerian universities are of a low standard when it comes to the quality of teaching. Most universities in SA offer African History as one of the module which make up a course in international relation and diplomacy. African history is a module which also is studied by many students doing social studies and humanities. What kind of international relation and diplomacy graduate will you be if you do not know the history and cultures of the people in your continent, especially of countries which seem to be on the edge in Africa. My friend, I advice you to abandon your Nigeria based studies and rather study that course somewhere else, since Nigeria itself has never been an expect in that field. Thank you!! |

lezz: What are you talking about? Cement is a nothing company, Dangote is not even a top 50 in Africa (we have over 20 in Africa's top 50 - Nigeria has 1 (and its a South African subsidiary) Our economy is doing just fine. Our companies are doing very well indeed - the JSE hit record highs just a few months ago. We are the biggest receivers of FDI in Africa As usual, you are either simply telling lies or you have absolutely no idea what you are talking about. As usual, you come here with no facts or citations. Only empty words. I can provide citations for all of the above if you wish to see them. Your conduct is a sign of a lack of a tertiary education. We have the most diversified and advanced economy in Africa |

lezz: No, he is not the richest. He is merely the monopoly capitalist of Nigeria. He is reigning and having the show alone in Nigeria. The whole of Nigeria is dancing after his tunes and he only gives reasonably small amount back to the community. What else can you expect from an orthodox Muslim who is called Alhaji. He is a monster in Nigeria and not in SA where you find variety of cement brands. List of SA cement manufactures yet is not exhaustive. http://www.yellowpagesofafrica.com/companies/south-africa/cement-factories/ 1 Like |

Patchesagain:how i love to murder you. Because you won't accept truth for truth's sake. Now read this and die. The starkest measure of South Africa’s failure is the yawning gap between rich and poor. Under apartheid, such inequality was by design. Since apartheid came to an end, a tiny black elite has accrued great fortunes. But that has only widened the wealth gap. South Africa’s Gini coefficient— the best-known measure of inequality, in which 0 is the most equal and 1 the least—was 0.63 in 2009. In 1993 it was 0.59. After 18 years of full democracy, South Africa is one of the most unequal countries in the world. Unchartered territory Persistent inequality is in part down to the government’s failure to educate young South Africans, particularly black ones. In the World Economic Forum’s Global Competitiveness Report, South Africa ranks 132nd out of 144 countries for its primary education and 143rd for the quality of its science and maths. In the Department of Basic Education’s national literacy and numeracy tests last year, only 15% of 12-year-olds (sixth graders) scored at or above the minimum proficiency on the language test. In maths just 12% did. Nokubonga Ralayo, a 20-year-old university student from Khayelitsha, a vast black township on the edge of Cape Town, says success comes down to being able to afford a better school. “It is hard to escape your background when you are growing up,” she says. Three-quarters of white pupils complete the final year of high school, but only a third of black pupils. Schools suffer from poor equipment. Only 20% have libraries, and only 7.5% actually have any books. Almost half of all schools rely on pit latrines instead of proper toilets. In July textbooks that pupils should have received in January were found tossed into rivers in an effort to hide the failure to deliver them. The standard of teaching is low, too. Training is inadequate. South Africa needs 25,000 new teachers a year but only around 10,000 qualify. Maths and science teachers are in particularly short supply. Many arrive late to school and leave early, spending barely half their allotted time in class. Many fail to turn up at all on Fridays. The teachers’ union is more concerned with protecting its members, even the incompetent ones, than with training them. There is little political will when it comes to improving education and few repercussions when those in charge perform badly 2 Likes |

the content of your 6 pages essay is laughable,you keep on emphasizing how unequal SA is,mate there is no equal society on this planet,Nigeria is also one of the most unequal societies unfortunately your situation differs with SA because race is been used as a culprit...The most important ingredient that can clearly show a good picture of inequality within a country is to measure gaps between rich and poor...compare the two countries (SA vs Nigeria) lezz: |

lezz: The person who wrote this article is just as blind as the rest of you (Nigerians). Firstly, he brings in a half baked WEF report which he never researched to see if it is scientific or not. Both reports were politically inspired by some certain group of unknown business people who thought that their opinions could represent SA education system. Some, if not most of his findings are grossly flawed and it was definitely not difficult for anyone to see that the author was not as objective and impartial as critical writers should be. From the first sentences he was already compromised and did not resist manipulation of reports which were not meticulously analysed and evaluated. Thus, the writer of this article is not at all a critical thinker and needs skills in the field of, inter alia; -being honest with himself/herself -resist manipulation -asking questions -taking time in producing his ideas -basing his judgements on thoroughly researched scientific evidence -being intellectually independent, and -acknowledging complexity Moreover, the writer could not compare SA from what it is today to that of apartheid era. Further, he could not compare it to the rest of Africa to see how does it fit in comparison with other African countries especially Nigeria. Their measure will always be America and UK. |

Patchesagain:southafricans and logic can never mix. Like water and oil. It would have been better it was never ceased than to cease it and later release it after a threat. Mind you it was an agency that ceased it and when it went diplomatic involving both government, Nigeria prevailed again. I am getting tired of this illogical,dry and tactless comments from half-baked southies. Feeling the need to stay away. |
