Oh we know..name any wealthy nation of earth that hasn't profited from immigration? I don't understand why these racist south afrocan police aren't arresting these lazy unruly unemployed south Africans and putting them in jail. These immigrants have come in, learnt a skill and are working paying taxes and making life easier..why can't these locals who are clearly brain dead learn from the plight and successes of these immigrants

May the WHITE SUPREMACISTS occupying the land of South Africa continue their terrible oppression & molestation of the stupid, uneducated, unintelligent, and least exposed black citizens of South Africa. May they dominate them in the most wicked & evil ways. May they increase their gullibility & lack of vision. May they keep all their wealth away from them. May they continue to live in their country of great resources, but suffer the great humiliation & inadequacy that they are going through. We shall see if that day will come when those foolish South Africans will look across the continent and ask if any help could be offered them.

No need for this curse on South. African blacks, it's their own land. Just tell your brothers & sisters over there to pack their things and come home.The problems of South African blacks is deeper than we may know. The white South Africans have put the blacks in a very tight corner.Unfortunately for the blacks, their leaders are also aimless and Visionless, instead of assisting the young blacks to work hard to get good education, they've been made to believe that they can easily enjoy life after getting their lands back from the whites.The young blacks do not want to sacrifice for the next generation like how their former leaders like Nelson Mandela, Oliver Tambo & Desmond Tutu did

It is not up to you to explain to the person that he doesn't have your skills or he is lazy etc. If you were in America and you are told to go home, would you say, Americans are lazy or do not have the skills so you have to stay and work in America?

The Ghanaians could rather propose something to the south africans of how they would willingly corporate with them in all humility. The idea of a foreigner who all of a sudden thinks s/he's even smart than the citizens of the country s/he's benefiting from is nauseating.

IT IS VERY TRUE THAT GENERALLY THE NATIVES OF ANY LAND ARE VERY LAZY PEOPLE. FOREIGNERS WAKE UP VERY EARLY AND RETIRE VERY LATE BECAUSE THEY WANT TO MAKE ENDS MEET WHILST THE NATIVES ONLY DRINK, SLEEP AND CHASE WOMEN. WHEN THE FOREIGNERS ARE MAKING IT THEN THE NATIVES BECOME JEALOUS AND ANGRY. IT HAPPENS EVERYWHERE. YOU WOULD REALIZE THAT AFTER THE FOREIGNERS LEAVE, THE NATIVES CAN NOT DO EVEN ONE PER CENT OF WHAT THE FOREIGNERS DO.

We Africans fought for South Africans political freedom and still continue to fight for their economic freedom especially in land distribution and acquisition in the face of white supremacist and likes Donald Trump

However,I believe this is the time to show these ungrateful South Africans where they really got their freedom from.

We have not forgotten their “ black on black violence “ from the days of Inkatha vs ANC for which African countries like Ghana, Nigeria and hosts of African countries helped mitigate. Is time to teach those xenophobics SA a lesson. Africa should be ready to boycott everything from South Africa to out sense in their stupidity that Africa belongs to All Africans regardless of colonial boundaries and borders.

Black South Africans have not finished their fight for the rest of Africa to demand anything from them.Even though they are the majority, they are still the poorest in that country. Mentally they are traumatised and we don't need to travel there to add up to their problems. White South Africans are glad whenever they see other African blacks coming there for menial jobs, bcoz to them we are confusing the situation for those they are oppressing.

I get very angry whenever I hear this lazy unintelligent comments about South Africans. It's the way the Apatheid system shaped their mindset.Come back to Ghana and see how the South African Miners treat the locals in areas where we have our Gold & Crude Oil..Their companies would never give scholarship to local Ghanaians to go to school and educate themselves like their engineers. What they normally do is to invite local Ghanaians in their pressure time for Alcohol, Cigarette and Food to deceive them. Go to Takoradi Oil Rigs and Obuasi Mines, there are White South Africans taking $1,000 a Day, how many Ghanaians are getting those salaries in their own land?

@ Ablution
Many Ghanaian workers report to work very late and run from work b4 closing time..Would you say Ghanaian workers are lazy?It's the poor salaries they are being paid which is contributing to this.It wasn't so immediately after our independence.This is what I was talking about , blacks in South Africa are not well treated due to disparity in incomes ,housing and other opportunities. This has created that disaffection not bcoz they are lazy. How many Ghanaians travel to Europe or USA and report to work late.

All the xenophobic attacks were started in the province of Kwazulu Natal and the first one happened during the time of Jacob Zuma as president and a zulu,my 12 years in South Africa,I learned that the zulus respect their king as Ashsntis,so I think Nana Osei Tutu can engage with his colleague king Buthelezi and I'm sure these attacks won't happen again.

Most of the South Africans only prefer freebies from the government and don’t want to learn anything meaningful to improve their lives. That is the real problem with them.

You see the behaviour of these zulus and the bantus? These are the very reasons the whites won't allow these blacks near them. They are destructive, violent, inhuman, conscienceless and very barbaric. The apartheid system is what really deserve. We must look for them in ghana and treat them the same. Foolish people alternating fellow blacks but going to the international criminal court to defend terrorists.
