@DeezyphandaSA You're distorting facts. Nigerians fought each other before the infamous "ghana must go," chant. Read Biafra wars and empower yourself before embarrassing yourself.

Xenophobia leads to tribalism.. look at Nigeria .. Nigeria 🇳🇬 was once a big economy like south africa 🇿🇦.. they chased Ghanaians 🇬🇭 out of their country now they're fighting each other

@jennyoswald461 No, no, no. Correction. We're their Daddy. There you have it

C'est officiellement officiel, l'Afrique du Sud 🇿🇦 est la bête noire du Maroc 🇲🇦 Dima Serviette.

@osasuo @CAF_Online Guys, those that don't know. Osamu is one of the most respected pundits in CAF. I respect him, and so is my chairman, Dr Khoza. That said, can he point out the wrongs and the corrects about Motsepe. Lastly, tell us which administrator has done better in African sports than him.

"Patrice Motsepe has taken @CAF_Online from the doldrums and has made CAF into one of the best organisations...There is an element in certain countries in #Africa that want to undermine his leadership and underestimate his leadership. I want to be clear to those countries - we are not a beggar country... We will never allow you ill-treat President Motsepe..." - @GaytonMcK, #SouthAfrica's Sports Minister, at the @SAFA_net congress on Sunday. Do you agree or disagree with this statement. And which country or countries was McKenzie referring to? 🤔

@daddyhope SA is responsible for illegal immigration in SA.Rape victim is responsible for dressing inappropriately. Jesus fuckin Christ!!!. I used to respect your informed writings on this site.

This is what I always talk about on this platform when engaging with my South African friends, that illegal immigration is not just about illegal immigrants themselves. It is also about corrupt South African government officials working in immigration, the police and related departments. If South African immigration officials, police officers and border authorities stopped taking bribes from illegal immigrants, half, or even 75%, of the problem would already be solved. Buses pass through Beitbridge carrying people without proper documentation, and in some cases without passports at all, because corrupt officials are bribed to look the other way. That is the uncomfortable truth many people do not want to confront. I was in Johannesburg two weeks ago speaking to an immigration expert who told me that in places like Hillbrow, police vans routinely pick up illegal immigrants, drive a short distance around the corner, and collect around R4,000 from each person in exchange for releasing them. That is how illegal immigration is sustained. It is not sustained by foreigners alone. It is sustained by corruption within South African institutions themselves. So the conversation must move beyond insulting people because of their nationality. Focus on the system. Focus on the corruption. Focus on the officials enabling it. I partly live in South Africa legally. My papers are in order. I obey the law. Yet many legal immigrants are insulted purely because of where they come from, despite having committed no crime. That is unfair, irrational and dangerous. Yes, the root causes of migration are often found in countries such as Zimbabwe and Mozambique, where economic collapse, corruption and dysfunctional governance force people to flee in search of survival. But once people reach the South African border, how exactly are they getting through checkpoints staffed by officials? How are they obtaining South African documents? Foreigners are not printing South African passports themselves. South Africans inside the system are facilitating this criminality. This is why the sentencing of former Home Affairs official Judith Zuma to an effective 12 years in prison for selling passports is such an important case. Personally, I think crimes like this deserve even harsher punishment because they undermine national security, public trust and the rule of law itself. If South Africa genuinely wants to deal with illegal immigration, it must deal with the entire chain. Yes, address instability and governance failures in neighbouring countries. But also confront the corruption inside South Africa that makes illegal entry and fraudulent documentation possible in the first place. And South Africans should ask themselves difficult but necessary questions. Why is it extremely difficult for someone to walk into Britain and fraudulently obtain a British passport, yet stories of fraudulent South African documentation emerge so frequently? What systems are failing? Who is protecting these syndicates? Who is profiting from this chaos? Those are the critical questions that need honest answers.

@JemwaIsiah @GaytonMcK Cubans sent 30k of its precious sons and daughters to fight gallantly apartheid soldiers, and some lost their lives for us. They asked for nothing. Instead, they offered to train our youth as doctors today. Thanks a million 🇨🇺. We will always love you, comrades

@GaytonMcK Lyte, no African state was compensated for the apartheid bombs that destroyed their infrastructure and economies for housing South Africans exiled to execute their liberation. Cde Joshua Nkomo donated 3 train loads of ZPRA arms 1981 to MK so that they can liberate Azania.

All these leaders in the rest of Africa who are issuing warnings to their residents and calling South Africa xenophobic — please don't forget to ask yourselves why your people are fleeing your leadership in their millions. Thank you.

@onyekanwelue There's none to be taken. All citizens want to immigrate.

Have you heard a Nigerian lament that foreigners are taking his job?

@Sophie_Mokoena Sophie,Sophie, Sophie. Please do better or shut up. Africa is relatively stable. There's fewer wars than some regions. It's just poor governance and African citizens refusing to hold their govts accountable instead of immigrating to other countries

With the challenges in the Middle East your option is oil import and re-open refineries. You will have fuel and you will create jobs by opening refineries. Sasol can’t do it alone. We need more refineries. We have to be proactive as Africa. All countries are going through economic and social challenges that is why movement of people and countries that are industrialised will attract migrants. Secondly its time that political leaders understand that political stability leads to prosperity and it’s important to respect democratic values and systems because if they don’t their citizens will flee their countries and that poses a challenge to other countries that are more stable.

@LBGamestips That is after butchering millions of your own citizens with machetes.

“South Africans 🇿🇦 think they are the Europe of Africa,I’m a Rwandan 🇷🇼 we have a lot of Nigerians, Kenyans, Somalians here in Rwanda 🇷🇼 and I don’t see any of them in Rwanda 🇷🇼 as a foreigner” A Rwandan 🇷🇼 man bIasts Söuth Africans 🇿🇦

@Sophie_Mokoena The sky is blue. What an astute observation by our esteemed SABC reporter. That's Pulitzer Prize reportage for you

No that’s not my point. That’s your view. I am just sharing information that’s factual.

@Sophie_Mokoena Sophie, all countries are "economically connected." As a supposedly seasoned reporter, you should know this. Dependency economically would be more appropriate. However, this always depends on many factors. Who's more powerful, has powerful alliances ,etc. Case in point, Isreal.

Simple put. All African countries are affected by migration. However economically African countries are economically connected. That is why the issue of migration needs urgent attention. This should be a priority to all countries. If not properly addressed it will lead to social unrest and security challenges in Africa.

@kirya_ug That's you and your fellow Africans think. Just watch all your African fellows when they make vids in SA, what they say. That's why your countries are called shitholes.

South Africans 🇿🇦 think their country is America.

@ShehuSani Have you considered the effect your social media post's does to the relationships between SA and Nigerians. Is it meant to mend relations or provoke SAns. A govt official should be more mindful, I suggest. You're safely doing this in comfort of your far away home.

The four major accusations against Nigerians in South Africa. 1.Drugs. 2.Fraud. 3.Domination. 4.Seizing the Girlfriends of South African Men.

@CICsideChick These are exactly the sentiments that create the xenophobic attacks.Nigerians are always denying the problems they cause. You're chased out of almost all countries, but still not change at least encouraging your countrymen to mend their ways. No

Nigeria's population is approximately 242.4 million. About 2.1 million Nigerians live abroad. Only 0.15% to 0.2% of Nigerians live in South Africa.. that is less than 50k Nigerians are living in South Africa.

@AsakyGRN We travel,not immigrate. SA restaurants have won international awards based in SA.Our designers have graced fashion houses in France,Italy, etc. Our universities have produced 12 Nobel price winners. SA musicians have won 35 grammy awards,and stage actors have won Tony and Oscar.

“Since I was born, I have never seen South African. I have been to many cities in the world I have never come across a South African restaurant. I have never seen a South African clothe been sold in the shopping mall. You guys don’t travel? All through my university days, none of us have never had a South African course mate. You guys don’t school abroad.” — Nigerian lady says.

🚨🗣️ Thomas Tuchel on Olise and Eze trying to switch Nationality to Nigeria. "We all know they're originally from Nigeria, and they have gone far to become global starts in their various clubs, Olise is really doing well in Bayern Munich and I'm pretty sure he's Ballon D'or favourite, Eze is also doing well with Arsenal too and have helped his team top the league for so many months, both might likely meet in the champions League final as well, if both Bayern Munich and Arsenal reach the final respectively". "If both of them switch to Nigeria nationality, I'm certain they'll help Nigeria win the AFCON again, qualify for the next world cup because Nigeria already have some quality players like Osimhen, Ademola Lookman, Frank Onyeka, and co. If this really happens The Super Eagle will have a squad depth that will compete at top level, but honestly, England will miss Eze and France will also miss Olise as well".

@matigary Have you looked into the ownership structures of these banks? Have you looked at who ran them. SA was fortunate to be the last to get freedom, for we had a clear picture of what not to do. We also had visionary leaders who were wise not to follow the African blueprint.

Good morning South Africa, I come in peace. I have a question for black South Africans. How come 30 years after independence, you have not formed your own banks? Of the few big banks, only Capitec is recent, but was founded by white boys. The rest are old “colonial” banks from apartheid and pre-apartheid era. When are you going to form your own banks?

@Trevor_sidogi One thing that's disturbing is the failure to acknowledge and praise Mr Abdul Bhamjee,Sol Morewa, and the team that built Fnb in the 80s. That was after the death of about 39 spectators because of 120k jam-packed Ellis park couldn't handle. FNB is our black pride.

This is not England but South Africa🇿🇦 📍Johannesburg FNB stadium❤️👌🏽

@mats56455 SA is a free country and a constitutional democracy. She's exercising her protected rights fought for by her parents. No foreign entity or organization can tell SA what to do to its patriots. To top it She's probably supported by a large section of SAns

CAN SOUTH AFRICAN GOVERNMENT ARREST THIS WOMAN WHOSE TWEETS ARE TRENDING WORLDWIDE - IS SHE ABOVE THE LAW IN SOUTH AFRICA ?

@willynyamitwe @Sophie_Mokoena @_AfricanUnion African leaders love these invites. Its top on their to-do list. African-Rusia,Africa-China,Africa French summit, even Saudi calls It's own Afrca summit. Why do we expect them to boycott something they cherish so much. 5 star hotels and all related perks. Its happening

Hello @Sophie_Mokoena. I have just landed in #Malabo for the @_AfricanUnion Retreat on G20 Engagements in 2026. While #SouthAfrica has signaled a suspension of its G20 participation this year, the situation you mentioned raise legitimate concerns and will be discussed during this retreat. #Burundi will also reflect on South Africa’s experience and lessons learned during South Africa’s chairship of the G20.

@PastorMarvy You're making your people's lives more miserable in SA. Don’t complain when you see xenophobic attacks again. You aren't helping

Land ownership in South Africa - 72% owned by white South African farmers - 15% owned by Black South Africans. Population - 7.3% White population. - 82% Black population. South Africa is an anomaly!
