1. Nigerians have a huge problem with defending the indefensible. A crisis is brewing yet again in South Africa, instead of sitting down & reflecting on what we might have done wrong, we have started blaming everyone else but ourselves. Over 60% of asian countries have signs at
2. at entry points against drug trafficking! Only a few asian countries punish by jail term, the rest sentence to death. Some countries even stamp it on your visa that you will be killed if caught peddling drugs. Countries issue visas for tourism, business, academics, medicals
3. diplomatic etc. The law clearly states you must conduct yourself according to the visa issued. Meaning if you are on a medical visa, do not do business. Even business visas do not allow you do just every business. As a foreigner, there are businesses meant for only locals.
4. Every visa has a timeframe, you are expected to renew/extend your visa before it expires or for visas that are not extendable, you are expected to exit. The moment you stay in a country once the visa expires, you have already committed a crime! The moment you start engaging
5. in activities not covered by your visa, you have already started committing a crime! You arrive a country on a student visa, you never attend school instead you set up shop & start fraud or get connected & start drugs. When arrested you blame Nigerian government? You rent an
6. apartment, neighbours never ever see you step out of the house during the day time but once it's past 10pm you are out on the streets! During the day time your house is as quiet as a graveyard but at night loud music is heard from your house, with men/girls trooping in & out?
7. You feel because in Nigeria one can sleep poor & wake up tomorrow as you don hammer you think it's applicable everywhere else? How on God's earth do you live in a foreign country with no known job yet you drive a Mercedes Benz while your landlord drivers a suzuki coupe? In the
8. Morning maintenance come to clear garbage & yours is filled with bottles of codeine, syringes, tubes, cans of beer, condoms? You are holding either an expired or fake passport, drugs, housing over 3 girls (prostitution) etc & when your neighbours raise alarm you claim they are
9. being racist & you are targeted because you are NIGERIANS? People don't usually get targeted without them putting a bullseye on their backs/fronts! Many of you aren't aware that if in a Calendar year drug officers/immigration/cops etc bust persons from a particular country
10. Upto 10 times for a particular crime, everybody bearing that passport becomes a suspect? You claim you are hated because you are successful & their women like you, REALLY? How many of those women you claim like you are professionals? I mean; lawyers, bankers, ICT, engineers
11. Etc? You go to clubs in convoys, buy exotic/expensive drinks, splash cash on strip dancers while wearing blinks & knock-off accesories. When the ladies of easy virtue follow you, you classify it as their women liking you? No my people! They now see us as a cancer! They now
12. see us as people who come to their country to make money from crime while using the proceeds to spend on their women! They now see us as people who make their people believe crime pays! We marry or befriend their women, use them to speak to victims on the phone in their local
13. Dialect convincing them to fall for our scams! When the victims pay, we use just a little of the proceeds to buy cloths & jewelries for these ladies. A lot of the times many of them get pregnant for these con men! When the cops come knocking, a lot of times our people escape
14. and the ladies are caught. A lot of times we use these ladies as couriers or callers, after getting paid we run back home leaving them to face time & at times with kids. After doing all these you still claim you are hated because you are successful? How many of our succesful
15. Phd holders, programmers, developer's, doctors, nurses, cab/truck drivers are being hated? How many times have you seen an uprising to eject people with valid papers doing legitimate work? You don't bring in ant infested firewood & not expect lizards to pay a visit. Meanwhile
16. @abikedabiri @GeoffreyOnyeama @NGRPresident @MBuhari @NGRSenate @ProfOsinbajo we will have to start hitting the South Africans with reciprocity! If their police & government allow our people to be attacked, we should start legally targetting their businesses & citizens.
