Xenophobia

Health according to world health organization is a state of complete physical, mental and social well-being and not merely the absence of disease or infirmity. It is disheartening to hear that brothers hate brothers. Which is coin xenophobia. Nigerian which this blog stand for is sick in other nations must especially South Africa who are scared of their black brother. Nigeria has 250 ethinic group and over 500 indigenous language. Yet we live in peace. We are not disputing the fact that we are ranked third as a terrorist country in the world but based on my opinion, we're still very happy. Our rate of suicide is low compared to other countries. I’ve stayed in Nigeria for more than 3 decades and have not seen security officials harassing people over immigration issues.


Just as the body is design, we have antibodies to help fight foreign bodies, so South Africans should expect reactions from Nigerians like the burning of most of their investment in Nigeria. A wise man once said, you don’t fight an idea with a gun. I’m glad that posterity didn’t say of Nigeria gaining their independence through violence. We also contributed to the apartheid struggle of South Africa where individual Nigerians donated to free Mandela. Even when we don’t want Ghanaian's in Nigeria, we didn’t do it by violence. We help other African nations keep peace. We have one of the best foot soldiers in Africa who are always combat ready. But we chose dialogue over war. Burning investment in RSA is penny wise, pounds foolish. Our country is doing their best in protecting the invest of RSA which caused the life of some Nigerians as causalities


I know there are measures or Laws that guide employment of foreign immigrants in Nigeria. This can be done through good legislation. If you’re not satisfied with the employment Laws in your country, it doesn’t go by killing innocent Nigerians employed legally in your country. If one comes to invest in the Land, your country can think of a legislation to protect you, like not allowing Nigerian's to own Land. Then you could get your right through rent.
Oga Ade, Dey for where you Dey. No come Dey use your day to spoil my day

Nigerians are good in spending money because we work hard and play hard. Envy or no envy we are not slaves of money. Contrary to popular opinion not every Nigerians are corrupt or thieves. They are three ways to get rich legitimately. One is by inheritance, two is by good investment and three is by good hard work.


Well since our government has decided to deport most of the Nigerians from RSA, we can still put our head high to say we are better people come to RSA.

Understanding CPR: A Lifesaving Skill Everyone Should Learn

The tragic passing of popular Nigerian actor John Paul Odonwodo, known as Junior Pope, in April 2024, serves as a stark reminder of the importance of emergency preparedness and the life-saving skill of CPR (Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation).
