Nigeria has been taking action South Africa!

Chad's deportation of Nigerians was a wake-up call. In April 2026, Chadian authorities rounded up hundreds of Nigerians, many of whom had sought refuge from Boko Haram, and deported them . They were told, "All Nigerian refugees are Boko Haram and should leave your country" . This is the brutal reality of regional migration when your own government cannot protect you from insurgency, your neighbours will treat you as the enemy.

But Nigeria is also acting on its own borders. In April 2026, the Nigeria Immigration Service arrested 107 foreign nationals in Adamawa State including 77 Cameroonians, 21 Nigeriens, 6 Burkinabe, and 3 Chadians for illegal residence and suspected involvement in job scams . Ogun State also arrested 70 foreigners from Niger, Chad, and Sudan, who could not explain their presence or even speak English . The government has made it clear: they will be deported through proper immigration channels .

In 2024 alone, Nigeria deported 828 illegal immigrants, primarily from Chad, Niger, Benin, and Cameroon . The NIS estimates that 300,000 illegal immigrants are currently in the country . Nigeria is finally treating this as a security crisis because porous borders have allowed smuggling, human trafficking, and even insurgency movements to flourish . Academic research has linked the spread of Boko Haram directly to the influx of migrants from Niger and Chad .

Nigeria is doing exactly what South Africa is being condemned for. They are deporting illegal immigrants. They are securing their borders. And they are calling it a security threat because it is. But in South Africa it’s called xenophobia.

Every sovereign nation has the right to protect its people. Nigeria is exercising that right. South Africa must do the same. We are not xenophobic. We are simply doing what Nigeria and every other nation does. Our leaders house don’t have the balls to acknowledge it 🇿🇦✊🏾

Naah, naah is this a professional dog handler? This seems extreme cruelty to a very brilliant breed for that matter.

عائلة تعبت مرّة من كلبهم من فصيلة "شيبا إينو"، بسبب عىدوانيته وكثرة عضّىىه، وبعد ما فقدوا الأمل قرروا يستعينون بمدرب محترف.

لكن اللي صار أول ما واجهه المدرب كان صدمة للجميع... وردّة فعل الكلب ما كانت أبدًا مثل اللي توقعوه!

ما رأيك في تصرف المدرب في هذه الحالة؟

[Sholto Dugliss @Lilbigchif]

I see you. So brilliantly put. Don't forget so xenophobic too. Our kids died our infrastructure is being systematically stripped away; these lazy South Africans are so unAfrican, they don't look the other way leave government to eat in peace, they dare to fight for what's theirs

[D. @Lush_Beauty1]

South Africans are really lazy people.

The majority of them wake up at 4am to prepare for jobs where they work six or seven days a week, yet still don't earn enough to make ends meet. Very lazy.

Go to the taxi ranks before sunrise. You will find men loading commuters and women preparing to sell food, only to repeat it again the next day. Lazy people.

Walk into the banks. You will find employees wearing the bank's uniform, earning salaries that often cannot qualify them for a home loan from the very institution they work for. Talk about laziness.

Go to the supermarkets. You will find them stacking shelves with groceries they cannot afford to put into their own trolleys. Lazy.

Walk into clothing stores. You will find workers folding expensive clothes they cannot afford to buy themselves. Seven days a week. Lazy.

Stand at the warehouses. Watch people offloading trucks all day so another truck can take its place. Lazy.

Some of these "lazy" people grew up in villages where they walked kilometres to school, crossed rivers in the rain, studied by candlelight, graduated from university, and today stand at traffic lights holding up CVs because there are no jobs waiting for them. Lazy.

Others cannot afford to retire because electricity keeps rising, municipal bills keep increasing, and the cost of living keeps climbing faster than their pensions. Lazy.

Every day I see South Africans trying to build businesses. I see them posting their products, advertising their services, chasing customers, paying taxes, and fighting to survive. There never seems to be enough money to help them grow. But somehow, there is always enough money to fight them. These lazy People.

So yes...

South Africans are very lazy people.🙂

So lazy their leadership keeps expecting more from them while delivering less in return and wanting to die of old age in Parliamentary seats. What a lazy Nation I proudly belong to...🇿🇦

Malawi protecting it's own sovereignty, the government just working through its officials, nothing wrong here no nasty labels.

[Musa Ronalds @MusaaRonalds]

Malawi is doing exactly what we should be doing. They are arresting and deporting illegal immigrants, including Ethiopians, without apology.

Recent reports show Malawi is actively enforcing its laws

·In May 2026, they arrested 104 foreign nationals for immigration offences, including Ethiopians, Bangladeshis, and Rwandans.
· They arrested 37 Ethiopian nationals in Salima for illegal entry and 27 more around the same time.
· They deported two Bangladeshis and repatriated 11 Ethiopians in June 2026.
· They even raided the Dzaleka Refugee Camp to root out human trafficking networks involving Ethiopians.

Malawi is not waiting. They are acting. Malawi, a poorer and smaller country, is taking decisive action. They are showing us that it can be done. They are not making excuses. They are not waffling. They are simply enforcing their laws and protecting their people.

So why can't we do it without the fear of being called xenophobic!

@GugsM Here is my complaint . The 19kg Lpg cylinder still has a large volume of some kind of liquid probably 5 liters or more but it does not burn. What liquid is it that is left I wonder? Are really getting the quantity we pay for?

[Musa Ronalds @MusaaRonalds]

This entire lawyer who presumes to lecture us on constitutional law while her own country burns under dictatorship. Your useless president just extended his term to 2030!!!

You speak of presumption of innocence? Due process? Law enforcement? Where was your presumption of innocence when South Africans were labelled xenophobic without trial? Where was your due process when you convicted us on social media? Where were your law enforcement officers when foreign nationals flooded our borders illegally? You are quick to quote our constitution but you have never respected our sovereignty.

Let me educate you sisi girl! no one is burning property. No one is beating people. The only violence has come from foreign nationals attacking our law enforcement. Our protests are peaceful. We are exercising our rights! rights enshrined in that very constitution you cite. We are demanding due process for our people. We are demanding that our government enforce the laws that are already on the books.

Do not lecture us about inhumane methods. You are a Zimbabwean, a citizen of a country where your own government has starved your people, where your own leaders have stolen your future, where your own constitution is a joke. And what have you done about it? Your people fled. They ran. That should be a sign for concern! They came to South Africa and some are in other countries in the world looking for greener pastures and now you lecture us?

We are not violent. We are not crude. We are sovereign. We are tired. And we are done being gaslit by lawyers who refuse to look at their own country. Go fix Zimbabwe. Then come back and talk to us about law. We are waiting. But we are not holding our breath.

[Sholto Dugliss @Lilbigchif]

Wow, talk of a comeback, President Sheibaum breathing flames here. She should also add Chapter 2 History about this boundary.

🧐🤔YOU WANTED A WALL, TRUMP? YOU’LL HAVE ONE.
Mexico’s president, Claudia Sheinbaum, responded to Trump’s threats:
“So you voted to build a wall.
Well then, dear Americans — even if geography isn’t your strong suit, and you see America as a country rather than a continent — you should know that on the other side of that wall stand 7 billion people.
And if the word ‘people’ doesn’t resonate with you, let’s call them ‘consumers.’
Those 7 billion consumers can switch from iPhone to Samsung or Huawei in less than two days.
They can trade Levi’s for Zara or Massimo Dutti, and within six months replace Ford and Chevrolet with Toyota, KIA, Mazda, Honda, Hyundai, Volvo, Subaru, Renault, or BMW — brands that are already more popular in many places.
They can cancel DirecTV.
And even if they choose not to, they can stop watching Hollywood films and turn instead to higher-quality productions from Latin America or Europe — with richer storytelling and better filmmaking.
Believe it or not, people can skip Disney and visit the Xcaret resort in Cancún instead — or explore destinations across Mexico, Canada, or South America.
Even in Mexico, you can find better burgers than McDonald’s — with higher nutritional value.
Have you ever seen pyramids in the United States?
Egypt, Mexico, Peru, Guatemala, and Sudan have ancient wonders — none of them in the U.S.
If they were, Trump would probably have bought and resold them by now.
We know Nike isn’t the only sneaker brand. There’s Adidas — and even Mexican brands like Panama.
We understand economics better than you think.
And we also know that when those 7 billion consumers stop buying American products, unemployment will rise, and your economy — trapped behind its own self-imposed wall — will begin to collapse to the point where you’ll be begging for help.
We didn’t want to do this.
But you wanted a wall?
Well.
You’ve got one.”
Her approval rating has reached a historic level — according to a recent poll, it stands at 85%.

[Sheila of the Most High @sheilatebra]

I finally understand what Machiavelli meant when he said, “Never play fair in a game where others cheat.” It doesn’t mean become evil. It means stop being naive. Stop bringing honesty to people who study manipulation, stop giving access to people who weaponize closeness, and stop expecting clean hands from people who already showed you they’ll throw dirt. Sometimes wisdom is not revenge. Sometimes wisdom is learning the rules of the room before the room uses your goodness against you.

@UlrichJvV Our Historical racial divisions are truly cause for the myopic views and attitudes about this gem of a country. The division is exploited while the pot is busy calling the kettle all sorts of names. The descendants on the high friction ancestors will sadly bear the burden 😢

[Sholto Dugliss @Lilbigchif]

One metric, is global even continental travel not the fake touristy type travel but seeing common folks life quality and do comparisons. Mzansi is far from ideal or perfect for even some parts of the mighty $merca are very dingy.

[Deon Lubbe 🇿🇦 @Rooikop0808]

@UlrichJvV And just what metric did you use to come to that fantastical conclusion?

[Kayilula @MekondjoKondja]

I stand with South Africans

As Namibians, we should be very careful not to blindly go against South Africans whenever concerns about immigration are raised and immediately label everything as xenophobia. The moment we dismiss every concern as xenophobia, we risk opening ourselves to the same challenges in our Namibia that we work hard to keep peaceful, stable and functional.

South Africans are increasingly being gaslighted to feel that being frustrated about illegal immigration, crime and the ultimate breakdown of their fabric automatically makes them xenophobic. That dangerous oversimplification could easily happen in Namibia too if we are not vigilant.

As Namibians we have built a culture where corruption is not casually accepted. We live in a country where politicians, CEOs, directors, public officials can be arrested when they misuse public resources. That is not just the stance of the Police, the Anti-Corruption Commission, or one political party, but our collective stance as Namibians. We care deeply about our country and what could happen if we become careless.

We challenge wrongdoing in Parliament, on radio stations, in taxis, in newspapers, in offices, in WhatsApp groups, at police stations, in courts, etc. We speak up because we value accountability. That culture is not to be compromised to accommodate skin colour.

Not to say there's zero corruption here, but there is a strong public expectation that leaders must be accountable. We care how the public feels. Even within the ruling party, many people genuinely want progress and national development rather than theft and self-enrichment.

We speak out when public resources are misused that even something as simple as a politician’s child posing on an official government vehicle paid for by taxpayers becomes a national conversation. That level of scrutiny protects our standards unlike I'm other countries where children of the corrupt openly flex with designer clothes and stacks of money.

My concern? If we allow people who ran down their own countries to come here and repeat the same patterns, we risk damaging what we have built. I don't want a Namibia where our children are exposed to more drugs, prostitution, organized crime, or corruption networks because of blind loyalty to a race.

Foreign nationals who come to South Africa should respect the laws of that country. Be there legally, contribute positively, do not come to add to crime, corruption, or instability. Every country already has enough internal challenges to solve.

To me, that is basic respect when you are a visitor in another country. You contribute positively to the house you enter, not negatively, because when things deteriorate, some people can always return home but citizens remain to deal with the consequences.

I stand with the principle that countries have a right to protect opportunities for their own people while still caring lawful, respectful visitors fairly, but not as a priority. I cannot imagine a day where Namibians are made to feel guilty for wanting their children to have priority access to opportunities in their own country.

I have seen situations in sectors like engineering, valuation, land surveying, architecture, health, and other professions where locals struggled to enter industries that foreign professionals were accommodated in. That reality has frustrated many young Namibians trying to build careers because they were being sabotaged, purposely failed in exams even at varsity.

I know we're being gaslighted to believe we can also go and compete for opportunities in those countries. If you're running away from there when it's your home, how stupid am I to believe there's something for me there?

I cannot be tricked out of Namibia.

Our country is beautiful, built through discipline, and we should never fall for labels being put on South Africans for trying to protect what they've built.

[Sholto Dugliss @Lilbigchif]

I would convene a meeting of of all foreign representatives in SA and play such clips. I would insist on their monthly to quarterly reports from them for field trips within our cities, small towns and rural areas to witness first hand what's going on. Less luxury shopping trips.

[!Nxau-X 🇿🇦 @MasiloPaul]

First time I hear a repatriated Ghanaian stating it like it is in South Africa🇿🇦, the truth about illegal foreigners doing weird and very bad things in SA.
Sir I respect you, remember that❤️

Only Politicians will deny this

[Doctor Of The Future™ @g_diets_]

That plastic container the woman at the buka just packed your rice into.

She scooped it from the pot, steaming, fresh off the fire, dropped it into a thin plastic plate, snapped the lid, and handed it over for ₦500.

The food was about 90°C when it hit that plastic, and the plastic started leaching.

Most takeaway containers in Nigeria are made from polystyrene or low-grade plastic. They are not heat-stable.

When hot food, especially food with oil or acid, touches them, the plastic releases chemicals into the food.

Styrene, Bisphenol A (BPA), phthalates, and microplastics that are too small to see but still enter the body.

Styrene is classified as a possible carcinogen. It can affect the nervous system and the liver.

BPA is an endocrine disruptor. It mimics oestrogen.

In men, it may suppress testosterone.

In women, it may worsen oestrogen dominance, the same imbalance linked with fibroids and cycle disruption.

In children, it can interfere with development.

Phthalates disrupt hormones even at very low levels, measured in parts per billion.

They are already in the food before the first bite.

Every plate of hot jollof rice packed into plastic.

Every hot soup poured into a plastic bag.

Every hot moi-moi wrapped in nylon instead of banana leaves.

Every cup of hot tea in a styrofoam cup.

The heat pulls chemicals out of the plastic.

The oil in the food speeds it up.

The acid in tomato stew makes it worse.

By the time the food cools enough to eat, some of those chemicals may already be in it.

Glass, stainless steel, ceramic, banana leaves, and letting food cool before packing are not luxury choices.

They are safer choices in a system where food-contact plastics are barely regulated.

The container is not just holding the food.

It is becoming part of it.

Don’t forget to reach out for a well-structured meal plan on WhatsApp [phone]).
