Many have lost lives and properties in the process and it is time for our government to consider this matter as URGENT and address it...
What can do the government of Nigeria do to stop this sad trend?What is the Origin?What is your view on this?
RIP to all the Nigerians who have lost their lives in these attacks...It is sad!!!
May God help them because Nigerian government don't truly care
ReplyDeleteOur government is the cause of all these. Outside world have seen how Fulani herdsmen can go to Farmers houses, kill them all and go Scot free. Bokoharam can kill civilians and go Scot free. So they are not afraid of anything. One thing is sure, no sinners shall go unpunish.
Deletemadam Abike is silent on this one... smh
DeleteUseless God forsaken degenerates!!! Bloody barbarians.
DeleteCan our Government evacuate and rehabilitate Nigerians living in SA? These people are bitter and frustrated and I don't see them changing. Boycotting shoprite and the likes may not be effective, let the Government help our people to come back amd save them from these beasts in human form.
I didn't realize south africans are lazy blokes, blaming others for their misfortune. They need to be told their story, we spent our "oyel" money on them. Instead of learning how to prosper, they are passing blames.
DeleteNigerians should all come home. Nobody should boycott any SA owned companies oh, most of us will lose our jobs
ReplyDeleteAre your jobs better than lives being lost
DeleteHush puppy thanks for calling out our fae celebs. Imagine Toke talking from both sides of her mouth because she's an influencer for SA tourism. Trust tweeter people they have dragged her today. Even Banky, all of them started tweeting after Hush called them out. I'm just sad, how can Africans be treating one another as animals. Shame
DeleteMay God help Nigerians in South Africa and keep them safe
ReplyDeleteits so very sad. year in year out this south Africans keep attacking Nigerians and yet nothing is been done. can someone please lecture us on how these thing works. how can we attack back. these attacks has been long over due. how do we make them pay. #bloodforblood
ReplyDeleteThey know our government will do nothing that is why they have the guts to single us out for attacks. If we have a government who will treat their fuckup, will they sneeze around us? They are bitter that we are taking jobs their lazy ass men won't do, they're bitter that we are contributing to their economy, they're bitter that we are paying tax in their country? Is that not ironic?
ReplyDeleteThey're so quick to forget our contributions to their apartheid struggle, they're so quick to forget that we contribute even more than them to MTN, dStv and shop rite. They're so quick to forget.
Boycott all their services if you can, I'm not paying any dStv subscription from this month till further notice, I'll start usingthat 18k to flex and buy more data for my Netflix. No more shop rite...more shopping complexes are springing up on a daily basis and I kukukma don't use MTN.
What is our minister doing apart from writing letters? The Senate needs to sit on this issue ASAP. They keep doing this and with each one they get away with, their boldness increases. This needs to be addressed by our leaders before more lives are lost.
My dear, the reason South Africans behave the way they do towards other African countries is that, during the apartheid era, the apartheid government prevented them from knowing anything going on in the rest of Africa
DeleteThe government controlled the media and prevented South Africans from knowing that their fellow African states were fighting on their behalf
They appear ungrateful but it is not intentional
It stems from the fact that they are ignorant of what their African brothers and sisters did for them
The irony is that these black South Africans who have refused to develop mentally do not attack the whites who are foreigners too,they worship the indians,Chinese, etc they are a bunch of dicks!!
DeleteSee results of all the evil seeds sown.
ReplyDeleteWhen we don't love ourselves, how then can we get love?
Thing is when this first started, it mainly affected one side. The FG did nada. Now, it's like a free for all. Way out of hand.
Wonder what they would do now.
Even read they shut the Nigeria Embassy doors on affected Nigerians.
Stella honestly I can not gather the strength to say anything on this post. I am so weak and broken for everything that is happening to our brothers and sisters that travel to a country which we call our own country just to make ends meet and they met their doom. #crying# #Speechless#
ReplyDeleteIt's really sad
DeleteGovernment need to evacuate it citizens ASAP
ReplyDeleteEvacuating citizens is alien to Nigerian govt.
DeleteGovernment has been evacuating Nigerians from Libya for years now but in this are our people ready to move.
DeleteThe government won’t help, we can only help ourselves by boycotting all brand.
ReplyDeleteBoycotting all South African brands would make so many Nigerians lose their jobs. It’s a wrong approach to this problem.
DeleteVery wrong approach, majority working in this companies are Nigerians why some of us are not getting this point is what I don't understand. It is unfortunate we don't have communities dominated by South Africans that could be open to attack. May be closing down their embassy here could send a message to them.
DeleteThis is so disheartening and heartbreaking 💔💔
ReplyDeleteOnly if we can start sending them back.... From Mtn to shoprite. We accommodate them here and butcher Nigerians over there. If Africans can be treating each other like this what more other continents.💔💔
Let the truth be told, Nigeria has cultivated a generation of criminally minded youths in recent times.
ReplyDeleteThis certainly is borne out of the hardship that has been prevalent in the country in the past 10 or more years.
The dearth of gainful employment, has been the bane of the Nigerian youth during the said period.
The fall out of the above, has been the upsurge of cyber crimes, armed robbery and wealth by voodoo means.
The people on whom these illegal activities are meted on cannot be questioned as to how they get their pound of flesh back.
The shortest way out of this is for the Nigerian youths to change their ways and secure gainful employment and forgo this criminal activities.
The South African people, from their historical antecedents has been a people that has been submerged in violence and intolerance because of their apartheid experience.
I suggest the Nigerian youths in South Africa should as a matter of urgency quit South Africa in their own interest and stay off that country for a long time.
As for the government of our nation, I want to tell them that they are wallowing in ignorance and disgrace. In every other part of the world, no nation would encourage their youths to go to another county and suffer great humiliation or death because of a desire to make a living which which is the desire to every right thinking youth in any part of the world.
The Nigerian government is to blame for all of these. They better do something soon to curb this failure or prepare for a revolution.
100 Likes. Thank you.
DeleteGreat write up Sluttychick we only the youth will decline crime and quest for quick money.
DeleteSluttychick you have won a great fan to yourself so we still have people thinking like human beings in this country?wow I love sluttychick.
DeleteHonestly it is heartbreaking and barbaric.
ReplyDeleteWhat did we ever do to deserve this?
The root of it all is ignorance and self hate.
ReplyDeleteIt is extremely tragic and saddening that the same people who have suffered the indignity of discrimination on grounds as simple as skin color will turn around and penetrate that on their fellow brother. If that is not self hate, i don't know what is.
For whatever reason, South Africans insist they are 'separate' and better than the rest of Africa.
The idea of immigrants overtaking the locals and stealing their shine push these self haters to butcher and burn people. This is beyond evil and South Africa will never again be supported with my coin.
*perpetrate
DeleteI work with a multinational that has an office in S.A. Our regional Financial Controller (an Italian) loves coming to Nigeria but hates SA because they are lazy according to him. This confirms the allegation that the hatred for Nigerians is because they are doing better than them. When you bring it home in South South the 'settlers' are doing better than the natives because they are ready to work and make money. If you have ever lived and worked in Rivers, Akwaibom (Ibono), and recently Bayelsa (because of NCDMB) you will understand this issue better. It will not end because they sell their land to you and you convert it into a thriving business and you become an enemy. The best thing is for Nigerians to abandon S.A like Warri was abandoned by the oil majors. They will start begging you to come and invest.
ReplyDeleteYou just said it the way it's. I'm based currently in Bayelsa and I can tell you that you're very right. Let me just stop here
DeleteC
This is more like it!
DeleteRIP to the dead 💔👎
Gbam, leave their country for them.
DeleteOMG you're right. My sister lived and worked in Ibeno. She said the same thing.
DeleteSouth Africans are lazy, and are mostly criminal. So they cant stand other criminals entering their country.Don't know why Nigerians are very comfortable committing crimes in other countries. This reason must also not be ruled out. Lots of lazy Nigerians just wants quick money, and most do their criminal activities in SA, and their new home now is Ghana.
DeleteGo and do your business in your region. What is chasing you from there. Mcheww.
DeleteNigerians will never leave SA.which jobs are you all talking about. I am very confused
DeleteS Africans are tired of blood sucking Nigerians who are doing all illegal things. Talking about evacuation.who will be evacuated? Please you should tell yourself the truth.
If I were to be Nigerian Presido, what would I have done over xenophobic attacks in South Africa?
ReplyDelete1. Withdraw Nigerian Ambassador to South Africa and every other Nigerian diplomat.
2. Issue South African Ambassador 24hrs to leave Nigeria
3. Send 5 Nigerian Airforce jets to return Nigerians in South Africa
4. Seek AU audience to suspend South Africa
5. Ensure Visa/work permits of all top ranking South Africans residing in Nigeria are revoked, CEOs, Directors, etc across sectors of the economy.
What else? I no dey happy oooo
💯💯🙌🙌🙌🙌
DeleteThe right things to be done, but not in this clueless government.
DeleteHe won't do it. That one DAT bandits and herdsmen have taken over his country. He is a sorry case of a president!
DeleteShabi the two presidents, Buhari and Cyril met last week in Japan, see them talking as if everything is fine. Cyril was saying they would investigate. Which yeye investigate when the blind can see that innocent Nigerians are being killed everyday in SA.
DeleteChai you would have been a great president. The one we have is clueless.
DeleteAnd u think the Nigerians there would return?
DeleteMy major problem here is that our government is saying nothing about this. Where is Buhari, where is Abike, where are all the government leaders. Why do we have animals as leaders???
ReplyDeleteThis is why this keeps happening because they know there would be no repercussions. Imagine the audacity of their police head justifying this rubbish.
It's so sad, really. It's so sad.
Did you say animals? I laugh in Swahili. Right under the nose of the buhari led government, kidnappers have taken over.Ritualist dem dem are are having a field day. You don't want to know what most of dis guys in power do to get there and sustain it. If na only money dem dey steal, e for better. lives are being wasted all in d name of blood sacrifice. Dear Nigerians, while we ll do d physical aspect, let's also go spiritual with some of these so-called leaders who are werewolves. let's use d power of the Word of God against them. chant psalms against them. By the time they start collapsing in d senate, house of representatives and their various offices, they will know d wrath of the Most High has finally descended. Enough of this nonsense! let d spiritual revolution begin
DeleteWe too should leave their country for them now,they don't want us there so let Nigerians return with their lives still intact and prove to them(S/A)that we can survive in our country too.
ReplyDeleteOur Government should shut down all S/A owned properties and repatriate every South African. By the time other African countries do same to them,they will amend their evil ways.
ReplyDeleteMy dear, Africa as a whole never unite to that level.
DeleteThis is worrisome.. Had to reach out to friends out there yesterday night.
ReplyDeleteHope they are safe?

DeleteI read with great dismay the report that the Nigerian ambassador in South Africa gave a directive that Nigerians who approached the Nigerian embassy for succor should be denied entry. I suggest that the ministry of foreign affairs recalls such an ambassador, because the principal function of an ambassador is to cater for the affairs of its citizens.
ReplyDeleteI dare not watch those videos uploaded, my day is ruined already.
Plz tell them to stop selling drugs and human traffic tell your brothers to behave we not fighting chines, indian, only nigerian because dey do drugs
ReplyDeleteyou must be utterly and totally stupid....do they do crime more than the average south african? joburg has a higher crime rate than lagos so fuck off
DeleteAteast south Africans commits crime only in south Africa, but Nigerians will commit crime in any part of the world.
DeleteDon't mind the lazy hopeless cretins. Everyday they are raping and killing and this mumu is talking about crime, who do crime reach una?
Delete@Delicious, you are so clueless.
DeleteImbecile!!
this is so heartbreaking,retaliation will be best
ReplyDeleteIf only our people there can come back home,but then its not easy!
ReplyDeleteOur government won't do anything. God help your children please
Stella,I am presently in South Africa & I am scared for my life&My family. They hated us because they are lazy&they think we are taking their jobs.Even though some of our brothers selling drugs on the street make it worse cos they easily link every of their attack to be drug related & they believe all Nigerians do drug.It's really saddening because we are not the only blacks here but our people are always the scape goat anytime it comes to xenophobic attacks because they know we don't have a government who care about us. I'v been crying since last night I saw some videos of people & properties burnt.We don't know where they will attack next.Bvs please pray for us in South Africa
ReplyDeleteThe Almighty God will keep you, yours, our friends, families and all Bvs in SA safe.
DeleteThe Almighty God will keep you, yours, our friends, families and all Bvs in SA safe
DeleteMay God's protection be upon you and your family. No evil shall come near you.
Deletethe lord keep you all safe...but pls pls pls dont know if you are married, start thinking of coming back home. that country do not deserve you or your swat and blood. even if you dont want to come back to naija, go somewhere else but leave that god forsaken people.
DeleteAh God!
DeleteMay God guide and protect you.
DeleteDear Lizzy, God will keep you and yours safe. So sorry about this.
DeleteIs it possible to leave the country, or at least that vicinity? At least for a while to allow things cool down. I know it’s not easy but it’s and option.
The Nigerian Government is very less concern about the ware-fair of her citizens. A country that is so unbothered about her citizens, these issues with South Africa has been lingering for long, is time the Government comes in to put an end to this inhuman and wickedness. For how long would they continue to kill our own. And to think some of them work and have huge investments here and no one is bothering them. God help us.
ReplyDeleteSA youths particularly their men are LAZY and even their indigenes confirm it. They want the good life but prefer to idle around, blaming hard working Nigerians for their fate. Why can't the sell apples, converse etc like humble Nigerians and other Africans rather than do drugs and have sex all day, thinking their country is 'America' and everyone owes them a living. Even the whites who built the country worked very hard and still do. Can they go to the white quarters? Of course not, the whites will blow their heads off with guns and they know that so they prey on their fellow Africans, particularly Nigerian whom they hate and envy vengefully.
ReplyDeleteYou need to fix up your argument. No whites built the country, it is the Blacks who labored under one of the worst form of slavery and oppression that the world has ever seen even into modern times that built the nation. I do not think they are lazy I think they are for the most part under a deep psychosis that will take generations to resolve. This is why Africa should protect Africans at all cost and make it more difficult for outsiders to set up in Africa. Africans are still paying the price today for centuries of wickedness enacted by outsiders who deemed Africans as savages and treated them worse that they treated their house dogs. These South African ppl are treating Nigerians evil, but they were programmed to hate themselves and everything black. Because blackness has no value in no place outside of Africa, the only place in the world black ppl can have value, allowed to thrive and live in peace is in Africa, but even Africa has forgotten who she is, her worth and her purpose to her children.
DeleteThe whites built SA, abeg. Without their direction, what could those creatures that apparently know only sex and silly violence have come up with other than a crass jungle.
DeleteDo we have a government? Since the start of this xenophobic attacks, the SA ambassador to Nigeria has never been called at least to register displeasure in happenings there. Or re call our Ambassador to protest. Does Bubu understand this?
ReplyDeleteBubu is not in charge and those in charge lack ideas on what to do. This is going to reverberate in every country of the world; kill a Nigerian and nothing happens. This equally shows that it was Idiagbon that was the strong man and not Buhari.How many lives to be lost to trigger action from herdsmen to this in SA?
I miss OBJ.
When you and the cabal is interested only in cattle, Islam and who heads NNPC, every body and every thing can burn to ashes, even the country. One is not surprised by lack of action and leadership.
A thousand likes.
Deletecan't our people leave south africa and come back?our government are not ready to even address the matter on ground.
ReplyDeleteOh🙁 not again 😴😣
ReplyDeleteStella, it was never funny!
ReplyDeleteOne thing I have seen upon the earth and throughout history is that every oppressed group eventually becomes the oppressor. Once they get wealth and power to a degree the first thing they will do is to oppress. If an opppressed group does no oppression it is only because they do not yet have the power to do so, but as the sun must rise I do see not one group who has been able to rise above this and treat ppl well. Hurt ppl, hurt ppl. I do not even want to visit South Africa for tourism purposes, goodluck to those seeking their fortunes in desolate places.
This has been happening since many years,nothing has been done yet😰😰😰
ReplyDeleteThis is heartbeaking....
ReplyDelete😥
ReplyDeleteI am a Nigerian lady living in Johannesburg with my family.
ReplyDeleteThe current violence is criminal actions disguised as xenophobia. Thugs and hoodlums are stealing, looting and destroying all in the guise of attacking foreign-owned shops and in the process, even South African citizen's properties are not spared.
Yes, there are South Africans who do not like foreigners (its not only Nigerians) but Nigerians are also not 'saints' in the recent spate of events. Specific areas are targeted in these violence and the targeted areas are usually places where drug peddling are rife. Any mention of street drug peddling is associated with Nigerians (although other nationals are also involved but Nigeria has taken the 'reputation' of being the drug dealers here in SA).
This instance is a case of "I invite someone into my house, he comes to my house and sells drugs to my son, starts trafficking my daughter into prostitution and at the same time scamming my family through the internet fraud (those are the things some Nigerian youths engage in here in SA). Obviously, the owner of the house will get tired one day and say 'Enough" and boot you out in order to protect his family. Whilst I understand the grievances of the affected South Africans,the way and manner they are reacting is however a wrong way of addressing the issue.
Nothing justifies the current violence but we all should know that this particular outburst is more of a criminal act than xenophobia.
I really don't care. This happens many times every year and the idiots chose to stay there.
