    In this special episode, we are honored to have Grace as our guest. She shares her experience of growing up in South Africa as a Nigerian. Grace explores the intricacies of how this experience has impacted her identity, as she never fully identified as South African and never felt truly Nigerian either.

    So you people are just gonna push propaganda without explaining what's causing the tension between South Africans and African foreigners? So u think South Africans just woke up one day and started despising foreigners for no reason? Every action has a reaction. Please don't disrespect us. This whole segment is shameful.

    I think the influx of illegal foreigners made thing complicated in South Africa there was never an issue for legal foreigners in SA

      It's important to approach these issues with empathy and understanding for all involved, especially given my friend is sharing her personal story and not representing all Nigerians.
      I hope that the police would take appropriate action to address drug dealing and human trafficking, regardless of the perpetrators' nationality.
      Thank you for watching.

      @@HowIsYourHeartPod u know SA police won't do anything so if u want to be treated like a human being don't be involved in crime in a foreign land, south african criminals also get mob justice what makes your criminals special.

    Cape town has lot of foreigners what are you talking about when you say you were not exposed to foreigners just because you are from Cape town

      My point was that before moving to London, I didn't have any personal relationships with foreigners in SA, other than seeing them in shops or in the CBD. Living in London has allowed me to better understand their stories and experiences beyond what I see in the media. The podcast aims to understand people's experiences and appeal to their humanity rather than putting everyone in one box. Thank you for watching.

    No matter how much SOUTH AFRICANS try to explain how xenophobia started in SOUTH AFRICA, FOREIGNERS will also stick to their versions. That is their opinions and they are entitled to it. Let us just embrace our XENOPHOBIC.

    Nigeria is also facing an immigration problem from the Sahel, which is the reason why Nigeria now have a farmer and Cattle herder clash today that has created over 2 million IDPs.'s across the middle belt of Nigeria. Immigration of Arab pastoralists from the Sahel is the root cause of the genocide of black Africans in Sudan.

    This thing of xenophobia in South Africa. In the Media is a big issue but on the ground there nothing like that in general .99.99999% of South Africans never experienced this in our areas. Africans are in Every small & big towns here but i have never seen people chasing Africans from another African countries .This happened someone in Johannesburg way back ,for the past 30 years only saw it on TV far back.Those people were fighting for a woman as we were told.actually it was like a gangster thing.Media was the one shouted this xenophobia in every news bulletin. Where is xenophobia in South Africa in reality & practical.??

    what is the main course of Xenophobia in South Africa? Make people understand why South Africans decided to be xenophobic after years they had you in their country

    So that we can bypass all of this inter-African xenophobia nonsense, I agree with using the new Pan-African identity term to cover 'Blacks' (Africans) of all persuasions: MwanaUbuntu ('Child of Ubuntu'), as promoted by the Kumbukeni podcast platform. 🙏🏿
