The truth is most Nigerians are completely noise makers wherever they reside, especially the Igbos’ i have to be honest here. The most funny part of it all is when you check what they are doing,in terms of crime, they know nothing comparing to the crime other nationalities (white) are committing.
For the fact we do not have functioning government except corrupt officials. . Nigerians are always made the scapegoat.

In SA most of them peddle drugs, internet scams and all. I support that criminals be kept in their parents yard. We dont need them in SA so take them back.
