"When You're In Rome, You Do As Romans" — Buhari To Nigerians In South Africa

President Muhammadu Buhari is in South Africa on a three-day state visit. The president left Nigeria on Wednesday through the presidential wing of the Nnamdi Azikiwe International Airport, Abuja.

Buhari’s spokesman, Garba Shehu in a statement had said the visit was at the instance of President Cyril Ramaphosa to discuss the welfare of Nigerians, and enhance the relations between both countries.

Mr Shehu said during his visit, Buhari will hold a town hall meeting with Nigerians in South Africa to reassure them of government’s commitment in protecting their lives and property amidst xenophobic scare.

President Muhammadu Buhari on Thursday in Pretoria, South Africa, called for tolerance, vigilance and heightened security in countries to ensure the safety of citizens.

He noted that competition heralded by globalisation, especially with ease in migration, will only get more intense for businesses.

The president likened the situation of Nigerians in South Africa to Ghana where competition at low levels of the economy breeds intense competition, noting that it will keep growing with population explosion.

Mr Buhari told Nigerians living in various parts of the world, especially in South Africa, to adhere to the laws of the country they reside and ensure compliance with market laws.

“Like it is said, ‘when you are in Rome behave like the Romans’. Always be law-abiding,’’ he said.

Yes, when the Romans come to slaughter you like chicken with guns, bow and arrows, just behave like them by pelting them ordinary stones and gravels in self defense.
Bubu is indirectly telling Nigerians to stand and defend themselves empty handed in the face of aggression instead of running for safety


If you know, you know......



This General isn't generous with his ideas at allllllllllllllllll

Hmmmm see advice. Roman President.

Tufiakwa


thunder scatter buhari Insha'Allah Amin
thunder scatter buhari Insha'Allah Amin
thunder scatter aisha masha Allah Amin

That is not too hard to asked.

But Braga Braga wont let my people listen

Buhari is the most unfortunate thing that will happen to any nation. Inside him, he feels so happy with what happened in South Africa since cows and Fulani are not affected.

Ode!

The message could have been ed in a more subtle way and the welfare of Nigerians should have been a priority. Imagine this nonsense coming from Trump after Americans were attacked in another country!

He must say nonsense with his annoying, tongue-twisting accent. Of course, he wouldn't come out to spew if Fulanis were involved.

Only if he could say this very same thing about Fulanis terrorizing people in their own state.

I wish he said something about his son who fell off a power bike they acquired with taxpayer's money. Useless totem pole.

Very true

I don't blame south Africa one bit for not wanting Nigerians in their country, we've nothing to offer them except selling and importing drugs, prostitution, trafficking etc. Nigerians turn a developing town into slums and avoid paying taxes.

We scam and disobey orders while we claim we are "smart and wise". We disrespected their country and their value, they can't entertain our behaviour any longer that's why they want Nigerians out.

Nigerians have the worst electricity distribution, no roads,no jobs, schools are bad, government killing us with taxes yet we are defending buhari,obasanjo,okorocha,kalu,oshiohmole,tinubu,jonathan and many other looters.

Well south Africa, Kenya,rwanda and even Ghana now is a lot better than this wasteland called a country, better leave south Africa for sane humans to hold their leaders able.

Since Nigerians are cursed and every single country want them out, with all the oil money and vast resources but nothing to show for it.

I don't blame you cos u have not felt d power of death to any of your relatives,hence u saying this rubbish

nigeria is very unfortunate to have dis man as president.,very unfortunate!!!!
so many zombies and their likes dropping insults on my mention...bunch of demented fo.ols...ive said my own.deal with it!!!

truth

I weep for my kontri

This is a deep warning to the igbos. God bless Buhari

Every one shouting bubu now, but the truth is I can't fault him on this, he is right this time.


Even a dead clock is right twice a day

nothing new as usual

I'm surprised that people are suprised.

And the dullard never disappoints..

Just as southAfrcia is geographically positioned at the anus of the African map, so is Buhari's brain anatomically positioned in his body...

spits

Wow! This is serious

Pay after we have designed your website. Check my signature or profile for details

Is this one a president So all Nigerians living in South Africa are drug dealers? This man is an old fool

Something is telling me that this man swore an affidavit to get the current brain he's using

We have problem in this country , we have been berated by other country because even at home we don't love and respect each other. Our leaders has eaten on our future and even the left over is not enough or its citizens, every sectors of Nigeria economy now involves in anything ,just anything just to fed, so tay dem leave ritual to trade human parts for money. Only if our leaders could behave and make the home a happy place, then its citizens ,job or no job won't be found loitering, south Africa sit at their home despite the outcry for hunger because all other things were still put in place , them kills us, we no see one of them here to kill in return and we say they were suffering like us, we only need to turn to south Africa pole, bucket and begin kick them up and down. Shamelessly leader, just only 24 hours electricity in the world wet God don dey even wonder if the person wey him create wan get sense its own angel, Nigeria still they drag issues like days of moses

Cow President don talk he own, weak like dodo. His visit to South Africa has no significant contribution to us living in South Africa.

If you know, you know...... you can't fight for your right with mouth ... i beg... go ask martin Martin Luther, bob



This General isn't generous with his ideas at allllllllllllllllll

How many of your country men are in foreign land with complete documents? Nigerians and nonsense are twin. Wanting wat we can't work for.

mechie onu gi dia

so what did I ppl want him to say... to ask them to behave as outlaws or what?
hatred has destabilise some people's reasoning even good things seems that to them

Before we abuse our Bubu, let's be honest...many Nigerians go to South Africa to do crimminal things....and it is these bad eggs that make the rest of us look evil...when we ain't.

Right now, there is a Nigerian pastor in serious legal trobule, and then there was the drug war that escalated to a point where people were shot dead in Nigeria...in a church.

We cannot be pretedning all of us are good people. Many Nigerians emigrate to other countries, don't adapt, and promptly engage in activites that are detrimental to the host country's well being.

It is high time we faced that truth.

Good morning.

"When in rome behave like the romans." If they do drugs you also have to do drugs, because you're behaving like the Romans. If they bring out a knife on you, take out your own sword too, you're only behaving like the Romans. if they come to kill you, please behave like them and kill them before they kill you, you're only in rome and as such doing as the romans are doing. If they are Stealing to earn a living, when you're in rome behave like the romans, biko, ejoor, yankuli, mzambee, please steal to make a living. You're only behaving like the romans because you are in rome. But if eventually they are law abiding, please do same. A word is enough for the wise!
