onila: Many Nigerians moving to SA, you meant to say. One thing about Nigerians is that they will move to anywhere that will take them far away from Nigeria, including Philippines, either the place is better than Nigeria or not. 9 Likes 1 Share |

Nigeria can never be like Soutg Africa Unlike Nigeria, South Africa decided it was cheaper to live in justice and equality than spend all the money meant for development on military hardware. Most of South Africa is being uniformly developed, so the people are proud to be South Africans. Nigeria believes in oppression of parts of itself. Do it will keep spending its developmental money on weapons to oppress its own people. 31 Likes 4 Shares |

onila: When y'all stop running to other devsloped countries and go back to Nigeria to develop her. Who's job is it when even your politicians hold multiple citizenships? It will happen when y'all realise you only have Nigeria as a home nowhere else. South Africans know that South Africa is their only country and are not going around the world collecting citizenships, so it has to work. Nigerians take pride in their most brightest minds being part of development vehicles for other countries. What good is boasting about a Nigerians doing great things in a foreign country while his/her own country is going to the dogs? Actually it might happen when Trump starts deporting y'all and you will have no choice but go back roll your sleeves and start making Nigeria Singapore of Africa. It starts with you! 15 Likes |

Pidggin: Emancipate yourself from mental slavery and travel away from your backwater neck of wood. There are as much as stupid white as black. Ditto for intelligent black as white.

Rossikki: Most of them just need to leave the back water they live. If you tell all these dumbskulls that almost all of southern and eastern Europe are barely above a modern slum yard they would argue about it. Funny enough Nigerians and Africans with low IQ are running and leading key sectors in the high IQ'ed climes. 3 Likes |

Time to educate some folks here. The ONLY reason South Africa is more developed than the rest of black Africa is that she began her modern development long before any other African countries. Of all the black African nations under colonialism, South Africa was the ONLY country in which the colonialists RE -INVESTED export earnings in the local economy. Thus, South Africa's first universities were established as early as the 1880s by the colonialists. They built their first power stations in the 1890s. By contrast, in Nigeria etc, none of these things were built until the 1960s, after the colonialists left. The colonialists had settled SA in large numbers due to the weather etc. They saw it as a permanent settlement. So they governed responsibly. The rest of Africa they just looted. They exported resources from Nigeria, Ghana, Congo, Kenya, Zambia, Sierra Leone etc, and they reinvested next to nothing in those countries, for a hundred years plus. That's why they are so rich today. That was the reason for their colonialism in the first place. So SA has a 100 year headstart on the rest of Africa in terms of development, and in terms of experience in running a modern society. That is why we are all playing catch-up to them. But we are catching up, though it'll take some time. And they are not standing still either. 27 Likes 1 Share |

Other African Countries got their independence before they are qualified to. Check African countries, the longer their year of independence, the more useless the country. Not like South Africa has good leaders but the country has been developed beyond damage befoe the colonial masters left. 4 Likes 1 Share |

AntiWailer:But the whites ruled Nigeria for 70 years and built not one university, power plant, expressway, or major hospital. Goodluck Jonathan built 12 universities in 4 years, while the Enugu state govt built more kilometres of road in 4 years than the colonialists built in Nigeria in 70 years. How much longer did you want the colonialists to stay and rob you, since you enjoy being robbed? 20 Likes 1 Share |
