DieVluit: If your statements are true why is the woman in the video complaining about Nigerians and relating this to her children not being able to work. You should go tell her Nigerians aren't her problem since they are "hustling" people. They aren't taking her sons jobs. They are hustling. If your statement above also hold water.... What about the non SADC Ethiopians, the Somalis, the Congolese.... Are they also "hustling" peoples. Please! stop the BS [flash=400, 300] https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SSsRIm5thqw[/flash] 2 Likes |

morpheus24: You are deranged if you think that I will sit here and watch YouTube videos. No amount of deranged behaviour will change the fact that Nigerians are nothing but hustlers in the main. Even OP confirms it with his story. You have zero to do with South Africa's labour issues. Zero. Your corner is where the drugs are, that's it. The Omotoso's have given us a taste of what Nigerians can be like but the uneducated Igbos outnumber the good ones by far. You are one of the undesirable ones and this hurts you like hell. You can't deal with it and have become consumed by the pain. You can't even help yourself. 1 Like |

chineloSA:AN NGO I am involved in works with the Honorable Abike Dabiri's office, She is a strong advocate against the discrimination of Nigerians in Disapora specifically in Asian countries. I have met and counseled Nigerians who have returned from prison terms in Asian countries. Does that answer your question, Ma? 1 Like |

morpheus24: Not quiet. I see contradicting statements. You first said that Nigerians are better off in China, Malaysia etc. than in South Africa, therefore you advice people to go to these countries either than SA. Then I asked you if you have advised those Nigerians in Malaysia who have been having xenophobic encounters to return to Nigeria. You contradict yourself because Malaysia has xenophobic/migration issues targeting Nigerians and also SA, but to you SA is the hellish and develish place of all. I lived in SA before I became a teenager, I moved down with my parents ( God bless them ), and studied Senior primary and High School and University worked there and acquired citizenship. SA can honestly be demonized by the media including SA media.Though I was not in SA during the attacks,some of the pictures that you saw during the last attack were actually pictures from the old attack, so it was exaggerated. Your perception about the country is too corrupted, 6 Likes 1 Share |

SA is not so bad as it is ppainted, yes there are challenges but if you do things by law you will have a better future. There are few Nigerians who are benefiting from getting SA education and citizenship etc. including myself. I just met another two Nigerian guys who are living and working in Saudi Arabia on SA passports. Funny enough we were discussing discrimination because of Nationality in Saudi Arabia in all industries or sectors. We all know we would not have gotten the jobs here in Saudi Arabia with Nigerian passport but only because for SA citizenship. Saudi state the countries they wish to attract and if you re not from those countries they don't employ you, and Nigeria is not one of those skills they wish to attract The Universities and school will be closing for summer and they are both going to SA for holidays. I asked them if they will be going to Naija by any chance, the response was "HELL NO" They are bot planning to buy property in SA and settle in SA. So if Xenophobia was extremely bad in all corners of SA, why would they prefer to go SA than Nigeria?? Those who wish to go to SA, go legally and get proper SA education and later citizenship and never be on the wrong side of the law, you will reap great rewards just like any legal immigrant elsewhere. SA Higher education is still respected and the development is also very respected. As OP said plan your move very well and you will reap the benefits Understand that the media sometimes hyper-sensationalize issues. 6 Likes 1 Share |

chineloSA:Nigerians fair much better in China and Malaysia than they do in South Africa from my perspective and interactions. You have a higher number of legit traders, importers, students and Nigerian business people who travel and relocate to these countries in comparison to the unskilled and semi skilled type that find it easier to travel to South Africa. China and Malaysia do have issues with Nigerians who engage in illegal activities as should any country but there is no blanket perception that ALL NIGERIANS are drug dealers as it is in South Africa. The attestation to this is the perception of Nigerians in developed countries like the US, the UK, Germany and the likes which attracts the more working,middle class, upper middle class Nigerians. You don not experience discrimination in the manner meted out in South Africa or at least they are more civilized about it than the South Africans are. chineloSA: My dear, it is not corrupted at all. I fight for people like you and the little girl in those pictures who's crime it is to be stereotyped by a people who constantly want to blame others for their misfortunes. I am fully aware of how social media exaggerated the pictures about Xenophobia and I am definitely not new to the topic seeing that I have been on Nairaland for quite some time now. 1 Like 1 Share |
