You must be a baby in international affairs not to know that all countries in the BRICS are failed countries. From Russia to Pakistan- India and some of these dubious Arabs Countries. Brics are not going to replaced the dolarisation of the world economies. It would be an option for those countries who are willing join. Dollar still remains the most favorable currency in international market.
@@jabulani76christophergood question. Just like the Nigerian leaders and ambassadors who display their idiocy to the whole world, you can see his unintelligent reaction, without trying to address the initial comment. Nigeria, a stain on the black race 😏
Ethiopia just applied to join BRICS few months ago but they're admitted but Nigeria applied years back but not admitted because Nigeria cannot be trusted.
Buhari was in a UK hospital for the best part of 1 year; Tinubu takes direct political order directly from London, Paris and Washington DC. The planned military intervention into the Niger Republic was the final straw where Nigeria stands as an independent failed state. Nigeria stupidly voted against Russia when the country should have abstained
Shocking news Nigeria is competing with south Africa I swear After drag insult south African About white people we are nothing without them Now they want to work with white guy Mr Putin
This is disappointing for the Dr to blame SA for all sorts of things. As a South African I wish for the Obasanjo years to come back. He understood Nigeria's place in the continent and the world, not these dwarfs of leaders and imposters.
As a Nigerian, it's so sad that Obasanjo is seen as our best. Unfortunately it just means that most of our leaders are horrendous. He wasn't that good for the country. I wonder when we will have just one good one😢
Under Ramaphosa, SA is proving she's the true leader of Africa, at a time when Nigeria is planning to invade Nigeria to force french colonialism upon them in 2023.
It's Tinubu who wants to invade Niger for fear of being overthrown one day. HE WILL SURELY FAIL BECAUSE NIGERIANS ARE AGAINST HIM AND HIS INVASION PLAN.
It’s a strong possibility they were not accepted into BRICS because of the position that Nigeria has taken with Niger. Sanctions imposed on Niger as well as threats of Military action. BRICS has a new vision of how Countries should respect each other and maintain World Peace. A full comprehensive understanding of the human family.
Nigeria is to Westernized even back to the slave trade. with the US. They traded the most and the longest of all African countries shouldn’t trust them.
We are our own Problems. Selfishness, tribalism, unpatriotic politics, continues to bedevil the nation . Until a selfless leader arises , greatness will remain elusive.
Nigeria doesn't have national interest neither foreign interest that's why America and Europe now fully control Nigerian foreign policies and Nigerian military.
BRICS membership is not decided by SA, but it is a collective decision by all the BRICS members. Nigeria being excluded has nothing to do with SA, please go back and ask why you're not included.
They blame us for everything.Even President Putin commended Ramaphosa for being good at diplomatic negotiating which means he fought very hard for Egypt and Ethiopia but we don't know why they didn't accept Nigeria.
@@sthe_zar6341 Ramaphosa is jealous of Nigerian population and towering strength in the future in Africa. He is scared of Nigeria overshadowing SA in BRICS.
You have said it very well. To just add a little Nigeria vote against Russia made their friends happy. When Russia called Africa Summit ,Nigeria did not attend. Nigeria has always been Europe Allie's that is why it felt easy to convince the ECOWAS members to go fight back the Niger. So Nigeria is in Africa yet it is ruled by G7 country's. Solution Nigeria need to do introspection before blaming SA. Nigeria is always an independent thinker when it comes to African issues and always support other groups who against the collected African decision. We Nigerian citizen we get to be blamed just because our leaders failed to put us first.
DR. I'm with you 100%, Nigeria 🇳🇬 should be proactive for Africa 🌍 in matters like this than trying to be loyal to former colonizers. Dr. I'm South African but Pan-Africanist first, Nigeria should have a louder voice for Africa 🌍 in a world 🌎 stage
It shames me to admit that our leaders are too corrupt in Nigeria to be as proactive as we expect. They are puppets to the westerners and they westerners have one on them 😢
When some of our leaders are grossly compromised and are nothing but stooges of the west apart from being selfish and greedy in themselves, they find what you are advocating difficult. Remember they will do the bidding of their western masters. IMF and co is probably livid in their hatred of BRICS idea, same with anything Pan-Africanism
From what the Dr said, it seems like Nigeria is not happy that South Africa is leading Brics from an African perspective, its sad because that's just Ego politics and that's one of the things that hold the vision of Pan-Africanism behind. If you want to lead, your politics must be pro-active and not cry to be on the forefront after others have taken initiative. This kind of behavior and attitude is what Brics don't need otherwise it will be difficult to reach concensus. By the way South Africa is the one that has always advocated for the inclusion of African countries, including Nigeria 🇳🇬.
Those people are full of competition, they make it seem like it's SA versus Nigeria.They are full of Jealousy and Envy,they wanna compete with South Africa from music to BRICS. And it's only healthy that Nigeria focus on its self as South Africa does.
@@faithsemo7348 well South Africans are just minding their own business and not competing with anyone infact, South Africa is trying to give access to many of our African countries......Nigerian politics is of old, they would rather loose out on great things because of Ego. Well we soldier on but they shouldn't complain of South Africa, they should look at themselves.

You are the kind of people that Nigeria should get rid of before it can progress. You neither have the knowledge of the history nor that of the current reality. Perhaps you are blinded by your self made internal hatred.
Certain news outlets reported that Ethiopia was chosen instead of Nigeria because it was felt that Ethiopia '''would better serve the interests of Sub Saharan African Countries''. Now what they mean by that I don't know, but my guess is that they mean the Nigerian leadership doesn't make any efforts whatsoever towards having an independent foreign policy. This is sad. It is like people are eating Nigeria's lunch and Nigeria just looks on.
Exactly. At least Ethiopia is more independent and able to make their own decision. Not like our puppet government. Ready to go to war with our brothers to serve western interest.
Nigeria is led by thugs and clowns, all they do is sell their own people. Nigeria must never be allowed in BRICS. Next year Kenya and must join not those Western puppets called Nigeria, let them suffer alone and we in Africa should not accept Nigeria refugee or expats.
You are threatening Niger has we speak knowing exactly what France is doing there. It is France that has been leading the west African region. Nigeria were blindfolded with just a name Giant of Africa but the real Giant is France.
Nigeria is a failed state. Still divided after the Ibo war. Nigerians are not patriotic. They are too individualistic. They are all over the world now without identity. What they are known for is mostly negative things like criminal activity. They do not represent Africa at all.
@@adamusafiyanu3341 distractions? that's why Nigeria not trust worthy;do you know the type of pressure America put on Saudi Arabia not to take part in the BRICS meeting and warn Saudi Arabia to sell it oil on USD? Nigeria lost it sovereignty when it allow America to control it foreign policies after the purchase of Super turcano jets from America.
The Doctor's mindset is colonised. We are all African brothers. South Africa, Kenya, Nigeria and all the other nations. We can't all shine at the time but we all will get a chance to shine! Nigeria, please get your act together and get revolutionary leadership. Coming from SA
The BRICS is the first accurate representation of the diversity of the world. Africa should be a part of building this new great system and be at the decision-making table for the first time.
South Africa is worried about becoming a leader in Africa. It's Nigeria who's in competition with South Africa. We don't even think about Nigeria we're just going about our business, while Nigeria busy trying to compete with us.
We don't care about y'all or think about y'all ur the one coming to comment here. We nigerians don't have a say in our government. Noone voted Tinubu elections were rigged blame the leaders😂
I never heard naija talk on international issues, the only time naija talk is when blaming SA, that's the only time I hear naija talk, besides that, no talk, no talk all the way🤣🤣 Love you Guys🤣🤣👍👍
The new president of Nigeria is focussed on going into war with his very small tiny struggling african neighbouring country and not focussed on building his nation and peace with his neighbours, how do you expect a leader like that to be taken seriously? Nigeria needs to focus on improving its image on the global stage, how you are perceived by other nations is important.
Exactly 👊🏿 💯 and many in the usa 🇺🇸 here stand with your statement webare tired of seeing Black Africans fighting and Nigeria 🇳🇬 should be beyond shame for still being a puppet to the west , France 🇫🇷 is horrible , the whole west is evil all the coups and proxy wars they have waged in Africa and The Middle East ,stop them. One Africa and Pan Africanism 👊🏿 👊🏾👊🏽👊🏼
You said it right! The government of Nigeria is dictated from outsiders like USA, especially France! And now is paying the price! The cowardice have its own results!!
Nigeria is self-destructive. Their most educated, talented, best and brightest flee the nation for western countries. Their government is loaded with nothing but corrupt self-serving western puppets, who knowingly sellout the nation for their own benefit and the benefit of their western masters. BRIC is wise to avoid Nigeria as they are much to dysfunctional, corrupt, tribally divided and generally untrustworthy. They'd be more of an anchor than an asset.
I heard the president of SA saying … “we in Africa..& Africa… He was so inclusive so if Nigeria want to be Nigeria & all us African countries will leave you with your guilt… you were suppose to be in the fore front… you are many close to 100 million… you are the most educated
Nigeria was deliberately left out despite its potential to allow it to clean itself because right now it is very toxic. It is easy to admit a small toxic country into BRICS and encourage it to shape up. However, to admit a toxic "giant" like Nigeria is risky as Nigeria may end up contaminating the entire BRICS Plus. If anything Nigeria should be encouraged to clean itself up.
Gangster leadership is not needed in BRICS. That is what they are against. You have to love your country and be passionate about developing her; not aiding imperialists pull down your country and the people.
@@AnAn___ Its time for you to pull out your Dictionary! Do you even remember that one of them refused to sell you weapons to fight Boko Haram? Who even knows who is funding Boko Haram? It is dfinitely not an African country!
@@VictorOrdu Very true about Russia being gangster. This makes Russia a valuable ally of Africans. What about being allies with Russia, China, Brazil India, EU, France, Turkey, USA, Canada, Australia, Japan, South Korea, Vietnam, Philippines, Indonesia, Arab League, GCC at the same time. That way Africans are not dependent on any single power or sub-group of powers.
I don't think the good Dr Okhai is taking the correct approach by viewing South Africa as a potential competitor for Nigeria in trying to dominate Africa. We should try to look at one another as two influencial African states that can work together with 52 other states to build a united, strong continent. To suggest that South Africa is now positioning itself to lead ahead of Nigeria is the type of tribalism this continent does not need. This is a very unprofessional thing to say at this level of dialogue. In fact, Russia and China were never going to choose Nigeria ahead of South Africa as a founding member state of BRICS simply because Russia and China have strong, very strong political ties with the current South African government that go as far back as the 1970s. Anyways, greetings to all Nigerians from us South Africans. Let's unite the continent and quit the tribalism!
even on youtube this Nigerians always compares SA to their village called Nigeria with no roads, no health care facilities, no lights, no malls, no schools, no jobs etc mxm...Nigerians makes me sick
Nigeria fail to live to it expectations,no body is waiting for Nigeria any more, Nigeria lost it chance to be a great power in the world, nobody will trust Nigeria anymore the rest of the world have move on, Nigeria is now totally control by France, America, Israel and UK, UK defense chief just visited Nigeria and wanted to train Nigeria military,in another words UK want to control Nigeria military.
Well said, I cannot speak for Nigeria I won’t even start. I know nothing about their claims to being African leaders what does it say about the other countries are they followers? South Africa has the best platform in Africa to launch any agenda business or political because of our first would laws and stable political climate. We don’t think we are better that makes us easier to work with. Being smart in diplomatic matter is our super power it’s heavily embedded in our various cultures. Take some time to learn from SA. Nigeria might learn a thing or two.
I am a Nigerian, and I love your comment! I greatly admire Ramaphosa's foresight with BRICS. South Africa is on the right path to economic independence and prosperity for its people. I hope that the "leaders" in Nigeria can see the benefit of membership in this fair and progressive organization.
Nigeria is still entangled in politics and culture retarding it's progress. The "Southern Hemisphere" is moving in a new direction of ideology of global awareness; with astute governance addressing an alternative to "Western" systems. Nigeria is still paralyzed by the ignorant/illiterate politicians (most, from top to bottom are stack illiterates in mindset...it's an embarrassment seeing them representing Nigeria externally), tribal, religious, corrupt, and factional politics that hinders Nigeria's growth. Nigeria is rapidly being left behind as a significant player of influence in Africa, let alone global. Nigeria requires a new shift towards group of astute people in governance with intelligence, and engage in a world view that would occupy a major sphere of influence on the global stage.
Which type of intelligence?the leaders are mostly educated in Europe and America,they all claims to have degrees and some are Dr and professors, except you're talking about Africa educational systems which wasn't even regards as education.
@@questionmore4675 I think what @MO-dg4wr mens is a poorly developed interlect. One can be educated but his intellect may be seriously lacking. and that seems to be what Nigerian politicians lack..
What I don't understand here, is when some people try to put Naija on top of SA just because of population, nothing else but population, I don't get it, truly speaking I don't get it🤣🤣
Please stop blaming South Africa for our Bad leadership. Leaders that all they know is how to suppress others. Suppress their Citizens. As disorganised as we are, you expect a serious minded World Organisation to bring us in. They problem we have is that we think that other countries are unserious as we are (Nigeria)
It is so eeord and quite disturbing how Nigerians will blam us for all their failures.I really don't understand their obsession and scapegoating.We even invited them to the summit but still it's our fault that they're not a member just yet.
I don‘t know about Brazil, South Africa and India, but as far as we can see on International Stage, Russia is fearless militarily against the Western Block. And China is deep in strategy in terms of Belt and Road trade route and grand master plan for BRICS to end US Hegemony. As Africans, maybe we can not contribute much, but at least don‘t slow down China and Russia for their fight for Global South. Nigeria should not blame South Africa because SA is the tinniest out of the 5 BRICS nations, but SA is trying for Africa.
Never blame South Africans people! They are the only country that has been fighting for all Africans and pan African! After Obasanjo I don’t remember a good Nigerian 🇳🇬leaders were fighting for pan African! From Ethiopia 🇪🇹 !

@@sthe_zar6341 don't mind those saying whatever about SA, Nigeria should solve her own problems first before pointing acusing fingers. We can't keep blaming others for our own problem. Nigeria brought the rejection on her self.

The impression I get its that some people wait for others to take the risk whilst they hiding behind others. But when its safe they want to suddenly become vocal.
South Africa has reasonably complete hegemony in its region with a consistent foreign policy outlook and involvment. They're an attractive prospect for BRICS. Nigeria has difficulty defining a coherent foreign policy, barely able to impose herself as the hegemon of her region...I mean just look at France ordering Nigeria around and trying to have them fight a proxy war. Nigeria in this instance is strong enough to say No to france and withstand any consequence.
@G-hg2im why should any country impose anything on another. You can't be running from US hegemony while at the same time talking of imposing hegemony on others around you
Not in the interests of South Africa to have Nigeria join? What a breathtaking lack of self awareness. First, it's not South Africa's decision alone to decide who in Africa is in or out. It's all 5 members' decision. Secondly, I'm convinced that the only reason West Africa is not in Brics is because that place rightfully belongs to Nigeria. But Nigeria is still very much tied to the West's apron strings, even willing to invade and punish a neighbor for standing up to western bullies, an obvious issue for Brics nations. Brics doesn't need that drama so early in its launch.
Nigerians are like some of our brothers here in the US blaming everyone else for their failures, instead of growing some spine and becoming Anti-colonial...
By now, Nigeria should have stood like a main GIANT ECONOMIC PILAR of Africa. But what do we see very very bad governance, top notch economic and political mess, corruption and GREED and a puppet to the West. If Nigeria truly wanted to be part of BRICS the we need to do 'very serious house cleaning' and put hygiene in our economy and government. Too much Wahala for Naja. Anyways ONE LOVE ❤❤❤❤
South Africa is not in a position to compete with Nigeria or interested in competing for that matter, Nigeria must clean up its house take care of its people and stop looking for other countries to blame....
Saudi Arabia,just like Nigeria,also have been in the western Camp..but the difference with Nigeria is that at their heart,they wanted out of western Domain...,Nigeria rather in her heart , Loves the western world.
Kenya 🇰🇪 deserves a more than Nigeria but still they were other better countries for brics to pick ..so Nigeria shouldn't blame us(🇿🇦) for their own incompetence..change the government or at least hold them accountable like what the south Africans do to ANC and things will work
Bullshit excuse. If there's any nation that holds their leaders responsibility it's Nigeria. We don't blame our ex colonizers for our problems like u blame the apartheid for ur leaders failures😂😊
Countries sitting at the table of BRICS are countries free of the colonial mindset and believe in equal, respectful, fair and peaceful relationships. Nobody is looking for dominance over another, unlike the colonial mindset where one must fight for dominance and then once they achieve it seek to freely exploit, bully and disrespect others as their reward. Nigeria and even Ghana are unfortunately struggling to free themselves from this colonial mindset of aspiration and this comes from their leadership that too often do not serve the interest of the people and so are too easily manipulated by former colonial powers and their friends, for selfish reasons or because they see no hope for things changing for Nigeria or the African continent under the exploitation of former colonial powers and their friends, and so only look out for themselves. The man speaking as a guest in this interview is the kind of man Nigeria would need as a leader to shape and lead Nigeria into being ready to join BRICS and successfully joining BRICS, but he appears only as a guest on political shows, not on the ballot for the leadership of the country. Peace and love
Russia is certainly not 'free' from a colonial mindset. It continually invades other countries to take their territory away from them. They aren't doing it African nations at the moment....but that could change. Not saying it sould be Putin, but I could see Russia federation little by little in the future trying it. Right now they are trying to force Ukraine back into the fold. Eventually they will win. When they do, it will be Georgia next, as they are currently occupying that country. I think India to be the most trustworthy country among the bunch. At least they don't murder their own people. At least not that Im aware of.
west Africa should have got their own currency by now but is lack of Nigeria's leadership and corrupt nature of their politicians that France was able to get their wish. They should not join until their politicians start putting policies that are in the best interest of Nigeria people first then they will allow them. The biggest meeting is happening in Africa and Bola Tinubi cannot attend. thats a disgrace
It's too late, Nigeria is lost, except democracy is kick out of Nigeria,the policians are very rich after decades of practicing democracy impose on Nigeria without the people of Nigeria writting their own constitution.
Nigeria 🇳🇬 was played around like a small fool on the ECO monetary issue by French vassal. Nigeria failed to attend Russia summit while Tinubu instead visited Macron in Paris after the election. Nigeria 🇳🇬 has failed Africa in several ways and severally with it’s alleged giant of Africa role. Nigeria has never had any renown panafricanists like most African countries had and that speaks for itself where Nigeria has always been. Even Algeria 🇩🇿 will join BRICS ahead of Nigeria 🇳🇬 😂
We don't care. I don't want Nigeria to join BRICS any more. BRICS have shown that they have issue with us. So the body cannot be trusted. We can make it without BRICS. Nigeria is not a small country.
So this professor his analysis tells him South Africa is stopping Nigeria from being a leading representative for Africa in Brics so to him South Africa ( a Brics founding member for 13 years) has to step aside for Nigeria, the delusional analysis and entitlement is mind boggling 😂😂😂😂😂
@mrt660,this so called professor, did he ask the Russians how they voted??? I am certain he didn't. You see all these brics countries watch the news and they must have seen how the south Africans resolutely refused to arrest Mr putin, then watched as Nigeria approved the sending of ecowas troops to fight their neighbours Niger on behalf of those European imperialists. The Iranians, the Russians, the Chinese, the Indians must have thought is this the kind of country we want in brics that is eager and willing to do the bidding of the scheming and interventionist west???. Nigeria should stop blaming others for its own decisions and failures.
The guest is a bit short-sighted in terms of insisting on how joining the BRICS would give Nigeria a bigger and better negotiation power. Instead of making the case and hammering facts and figures on WHAT Nigeria can bring to the table and HOW that would enhance the BRICS, he sat there blaming South Africa over and over again. And worse, he suggests to go around South Africa and lobby China and Russia. That is how some Africans sow division among themselves. This "intellectual" should know that it would yield better results for Nigeria to start courting South Africa as BRICS' giant on the continent (at least for now), and show good intentions of fruitful and mutually beneficial collaboration by building partnerships and strong ties on the continent. The BRICS is not about internal competition, it's about building a synergy by bring assets together. If Nigeria starts a blame game from the get go, this would be a sign of the spirit of division that it could sow within the BRICS once on board of the BRICS ship.
One mistake that Nigeria has made was to think that they've conquered colonialists just because they don't live among them. The level of hopelessness, one would swear apartheid was in Nigeria and not South Africa but the thing about living under apartheid is that we know that the fight is never over, we never lose hope just like the Palestinians keep fighting and the black Americans too. Instead of being ashamed that South Africa was supposed to be looking up to Nigeria and take time to introspect they see South Africa as the enemy. That time the real enemy has their foot on their neck. We can't be fighting neocolonialism while at the same time defending ourselves from other Africans. 😢I now understand why Nigeria has such a negative view on us. These are the things that they hear in their media about us and make no mistake, the west is involved. I'd expect better from a scholar. How are we to blame when we just partially got out of the apartheid era 30 years ago and they've had way longer to be making moves that put Africa at the forefront? It's like a grown adult who sat and did nothing with their life having a problem with a kid that decided to do different and make a change. I can't believe that North Africa is more on the same page with us than West African nations. It is sad to see how weak and down on their knees they are. We're not competing with you, even Egypt that's always passing us economically understands that.
@ Victor Okhai: "South Africa is not positioing itself as a leader of BRICS," they deserve it. Nigeria in its current state is not qualified and shld not be allowed into the group. We need to put our governance and economy together, and these include showing that we dealing with the issues of food production, government revenue, corruption, security, and all essential sercives before we can apply and be considered. Simply, we shld put our home in order before applying and being considered.

South Africa would love to have Nigeria in Brics. We do not see Nigeria as a rival, yet Nigeria seems to regard us as its rival. I'm not privy to the inner workings of Brics & I cannot talk for them. I'm a civilian. If Nigeria did make a formal application to join Brics & was not considered, my take is that the current legal issues surrounding President Tinubu could have played a major part in that decision. Its about time Nigeria stopped thinking of itself as THE LEADER of Africa. A large population does not, of itself, bestow the honour of leadership to any country. No country has the right to regard itself as the leader of our continent.

@@thandekakhwezykhwezy it’s your corrupt elite that are manipulating you, that’s why Nigeria is a failed state, you have oils and you can’t refine, your useless government export and import the same oil into your country, Nigerians consumes everything, including teeth picks and all your pants were all imported; name it! Brics needs a growing economy, that are ready to become independent economically, not Nigeria that cant breeds common birds.
Nigeria should be in this group as we will be better for it. First Africa 🌍 must get it's act together First, done maybe we have a better nation and the world will take us seriously 😢
😂I just come to laugh at them. They like including us to think SA advocates for more African inclusion. Most of the countries that joined are economically at a better standing then SA🤣. I mean Indonesia should've been included IMO. One more thing they act like BRIC was 10/15 yrs old when SA joined. It literally was created in 2009 SA joined 2010. Infact we were NOT INVITED President Zuma spoke on this in a video saying he spoke to the members individually about joining he didn't wait to have SA join. I tell you Zuma was a visionary with his corruption also🤣🤷🏿♂️.
@@thandekakhwezykhwezy No he did not. He influenced ECOWAS formation which gave Zuma a thought of joining BRIC after the term was coined by a Morgan Stanley official in an article he wrote about the growth of emerging markets.

*Nigeria is always MIA in things that matter. Always waiting for instructions from their colonial masters. Nigeria shouldn't be admitted to BRICS+ until it gets its act together, as its is a weak link and threat to the alliance's progress.* SA hasn't done anything, it is Nigeria that isn't focused. Nigeria should be the big bro in West Africa but they're gradually loosing significance.
Maybe when Nigeria enters BRICS the irritating phonecalls with false 'messages', and computer-hacking will come to an end, when super-intelligent people can aquire a decent job according to their capabilities.
There are certain requirements to qualify joining BRICS. Nigeria should first and foremost fix the multiple socioeconomic internal problems first and to disengage from the severe disadvantages of western interference and bending to their dictates. We are fully able to succeed with the right type of seriously focused leadership without corruption and selfish aggrandizement.
To be part of the BRICS, Nigeria must first eliminate all its corrupt elite who play the West's mercenaries in Africa
You must be a baby in international affairs not to know that all countries in the BRICS are failed countries. From Russia to Pakistan- India and some of these dubious Arabs Countries. Brics are not going to replaced the dolarisation of the world economies. It would be an option for those countries who are willing join. Dollar still remains the most favorable currency in international market.

Ethiopia just applied to join BRICS few months ago but they're admitted but Nigeria applied years back but not admitted because Nigeria cannot be trusted.
Buhari was in a UK hospital for the best part of 1 year; Tinubu takes direct political order directly from London, Paris and Washington DC.

This is disappointing for the Dr to blame SA for all sorts of things. As a South African I wish for the Obasanjo years to come back. He understood Nigeria's place in the continent and the world, not these dwarfs of leaders and imposters.
Obasanjo put's Africa first. The current power grabbers are bereft of any known progressive ideological credentials except kleptocracy😢
As a Nigerian I agree with ur take.
After obj nigeria went to sleep
As a Nigerian, it's so sad that Obasanjo is seen as our best. Unfortunately it just means that most of our leaders are horrendous. He wasn't that good for the country. I wonder when we will have just one good one😢
You are half right , obasanjo turned all state properties to his private property and everyone knew he is the west link to Afica.
SA can take Obasanjo. We Nigerians are not going back. We need fresh minds that can stand up to the Bullies especially, the whole Africa.
Under Ramaphosa, SA is proving she's the true leader of Africa, at a time when Nigeria is planning to invade Nigeria to force french colonialism upon them in 2023.
It's Tinubu who wants to invade Niger for fear of being overthrown one day. HE WILL SURELY FAIL BECAUSE NIGERIANS ARE AGAINST HIM AND HIS INVASION PLAN.

You will never hear or leaders in South Africa 🇿🇦 talking like you.We very humble and intelligent.
It’s a strong possibility they were not accepted into BRICS because of the position that Nigeria has taken with Niger. Sanctions imposed on Niger as well as threats of Military action. BRICS has a new vision of how Countries should respect each other and maintain World Peace. A full comprehensive understanding of the human family.
Most Nigerian are scammers
One of the condition is no member should sanctions any country, Nigeria lost it when it foolishly sanctions Niger republic
Nah Niger is a new thing
Nigeria is to Westernized even back to the slave trade. with the US. They traded the most and the longest of all African countries shouldn’t trust them.

They blame us for everything.Even President Putin commended Ramaphosa for being good at diplomatic negotiating which means he fought very hard for Egypt and Ethiopia but we don't know why they didn't accept Nigeria.
@@sthe_zar6341 Ramaphosa is jealous of Nigerian population and towering strength in the future in Africa. He is scared of Nigeria overshadowing SA in BRICS.
You have said it very well. To just add a little
Nigeria vote against Russia made their friends happy. When Russia called Africa Summit ,Nigeria did not attend. Nigeria has always been Europe Allie's that is why it felt easy to convince the ECOWAS members to go fight back the Niger. So Nigeria is in Africa yet it is ruled by G7 country's.

True … Nigeria should have a larger voice for Africa…

Nigeria should be part of the BRICS; rather than being a stooge to western interest.
When some of our leaders are grossly compromised and are nothing but stooges of the west apart from being selfish and greedy in themselves, they find what you are advocating difficult. Remember they will do the bidding of their western masters. IMF and co is probably livid in their hatred of BRICS idea, same with anything Pan-Africanism
From what the Dr said, it seems like Nigeria is not happy that South Africa is leading Brics from an African perspective, its sad because that's just Ego politics and that's one of the things that hold the vision of Pan-Africanism behind. If you want to lead, your politics must be pro-active and not cry to be on the forefront after others have taken initiative. This kind of behavior and attitude is what Brics don't need otherwise it will be difficult to reach concensus. By the way South Africa is the one that has always advocated for the inclusion of African countries, including Nigeria 🇳🇬.
Those people are full of competition, they make it seem like it's SA versus Nigeria.They are full of Jealousy and Envy,they wanna compete with South Africa from music to BRICS. And it's only healthy that Nigeria focus on its self as South Africa does.

Certain news outlets reported that Ethiopia was chosen instead of Nigeria because it was felt that Ethiopia '''would better serve the interests of Sub Saharan African Countries''. Now what they mean by that I don't know, but my guess is that they mean the Nigerian leadership doesn't make any efforts whatsoever towards having an independent foreign policy. This is sad. It is like people are eating Nigeria's lunch and Nigeria just looks on.
Exactly. At least Ethiopia is more independent and able to make their own decision. Not like our puppet government. Ready to go to war with our brothers to serve western interest.

The new president of Nigeria is focussed on going into war with his very small tiny struggling african neighbouring country and not focussed on building his nation and peace with his neighbours, how do you expect a leader like that to be taken seriously?

You said it right! The government of Nigeria is dictated from outsiders like USA, especially France! And now is paying the price! The cowardice have its own results!!
Nigerian government is perceived as western puppets. When the west tell Nigeria to jump, they'll ask how high.
Why is Nigeria, Africa's largest economy so cold? It has no voice in major world events and yet it is so huge😮
Nigeria is self-destructive. Their most educated, talented, best and brightest flee the nation for western countries. Their government is loaded with nothing but corrupt self-serving western puppets, who knowingly sellout the nation for their own benefit and the benefit of their western masters. BRIC is wise to avoid Nigeria as they are much to dysfunctional, corrupt, tribally divided and generally untrustworthy. They'd be more of an anchor than an asset.
Because it's not. It's only on paper
I heard the president of SA saying … “we in Africa..& Africa… He was so inclusive so if Nigeria want to be Nigeria & all us African countries will leave you with your guilt… you were suppose to be in the fore front… you are many close to 100 million… you are the most educated
Nigeria was deliberately left out despite its potential to allow it to clean itself because right now it is very toxic. It is easy to admit a small toxic country into BRICS and encourage it to shape up. However, to admit a toxic "giant" like Nigeria is risky as Nigeria may end up contaminating the entire BRICS Plus. If anything Nigeria should be encouraged to clean itself up.
Gangster leadership is not needed in BRICS. That is what they are against.

Nigerian is ProWest! They don’t need to be included in BRICS
India has established close strategic relation with US, France, UK, Australia. Being anti-west is not a criteria for joining the BRICS grouping.
I don't think the good Dr Okhai is taking the correct approach by viewing South Africa as a potential competitor for Nigeria in trying to dominate Africa. We should try to look at one another as two influencial African states that can work together with 52 other states to build a united, strong continent. To suggest that South Africa is now positioning itself to lead ahead of Nigeria is the type of tribalism this continent does not need. This is a very unprofessional thing to say at this level of dialogue. In fact, Russia and China were never going to choose Nigeria ahead of South Africa as a founding member state of BRICS simply because Russia and China have strong, very strong political ties with the current South African government that go as far back as the 1970s. Anyways, greetings to all Nigerians from us South Africans. Let's unite the continent and quit the tribalism!
even on youtube this Nigerians always compares SA to their village called Nigeria with no roads, no health care facilities, no lights, no malls, no schools, no jobs etc mxm...Nigerians makes me sick
Nigeria fail to live to it expectations,no body is waiting for Nigeria any more, Nigeria lost it chance to be a great power in the world, nobody will trust Nigeria anymore the rest of the world have move on, Nigeria is now totally control by France, America, Israel and UK, UK defense chief just visited Nigeria and wanted to train Nigeria military,in another words UK want to control Nigeria military.
Well said, I cannot speak for Nigeria I won’t even start. I know nothing about their claims to being African leaders what does it say about the other countries are they followers? South Africa has the best platform in Africa to launch any agenda business or political because of our first would laws and stable political climate. We don’t think we are better that makes us easier to work with. Being smart in diplomatic matter is our super power it’s heavily embedded in our various cultures. Take some time to learn from SA. Nigeria might learn a thing or two.
Exactly like it’s so simple!
I am a Nigerian, and I love your comment! I greatly admire Ramaphosa's foresight with BRICS. South Africa is on the right path to economic independence and prosperity for its people. I hope that the "leaders" in Nigeria can see the benefit of membership in this fair and progressive organization.
Nigeria is still entangled in politics and culture retarding it's progress. The "Southern Hemisphere" is moving in a new direction of ideology of global awareness; with astute governance addressing an alternative to "Western" systems. Nigeria is still paralyzed by the ignorant/illiterate politicians (most, from top to bottom are stack illiterates in mindset...it's an embarrassment seeing them representing Nigeria externally), tribal, religious, corrupt, and factional politics that hinders Nigeria's growth.
Nigeria is rapidly being left behind as a significant player of influence in Africa, let alone global. Nigeria requires a new shift towards group of astute people in governance with intelligence, and engage in a world view that would occupy a major sphere of influence on the global stage.

South Africa has reasonably complete hegemony in its region with a consistent foreign policy outlook and involvment. They're an attractive prospect for BRICS.

Not in the interests of South Africa to have Nigeria join? What a breathtaking lack of self awareness. First, it's not South Africa's decision alone to decide who in Africa is in or out. It's all 5 members' decision. Secondly, I'm convinced that the only reason West Africa is not in Brics is because that place rightfully belongs to Nigeria. But Nigeria is still very much tied to the West's apron strings, even willing to invade and punish a neighbor for standing up to western bullies, an obvious issue for Brics nations. Brics doesn't need that drama so early in its launch.

@@youme1414 Pres Zuma is the one who led South Africa to BRICS.
His the best in geopolitics.
Countries sitting at the table of BRICS are countries free of the colonial mindset and believe in equal, respectful, fair and peaceful relationships. Nobody is looking for dominance over another, unlike the colonial mindset where one must fight for dominance and then once they achieve it seek to freely exploit, bully and disrespect others as their reward. Nigeria and even Ghana are unfortunately struggling to free themselves from this colonial mindset of aspiration and this comes from their leadership that too often do not serve the interest of the people and so are too easily manipulated by former colonial powers and their friends, for selfish reasons or because they see no hope for things changing for Nigeria or the African continent under the exploitation of former colonial powers and their friends, and so only look out for themselves. The man speaking as a guest in this interview is the kind of man Nigeria would need as a leader to shape and lead Nigeria into being ready to join BRICS and successfully joining BRICS, but he appears only as a guest on political shows, not on the ballot for the leadership of the country. Peace and love
Russia is certainly not 'free' from a colonial mindset. It continually invades other countries to take their territory away from them. They aren't doing it African nations at the moment....but that could change. Not saying it sould be Putin, but I could see Russia federation little by little in the future trying it. Right now they are trying to force Ukraine back into the fold. Eventually they will win. When they do, it will be Georgia next, as they are currently occupying that country. I think India to be the most trustworthy country among the bunch. At least they don't murder their own people. At least not that Im aware of.
west Africa should have got their own currency by now but is lack of Nigeria's leadership and corrupt nature of their politicians that France was able to get their wish.

The guest is a bit short-sighted in terms of insisting on how joining the BRICS would give Nigeria a bigger and better negotiation power. Instead of making the case and hammering facts and figures on WHAT Nigeria can bring to the table and HOW that would enhance the BRICS, he sat there blaming South Africa over and over again. And worse, he suggests to go around South Africa and lobby China and Russia. That is how some Africans sow division among themselves. This "intellectual" should know that it would yield better results for Nigeria to start courting South Africa as BRICS' giant on the continent (at least for now), and show good intentions of fruitful and mutually beneficial collaboration by building partnerships and strong ties on the continent. The BRICS is not about internal competition, it's about building a synergy by bring assets together. If Nigeria starts a blame game from the get go, this would be a sign of the spirit of division that it could sow within the BRICS once on board of the BRICS ship.
One mistake that Nigeria has made was to think that they've conquered colonialists just because they don't live among them. The level of hopelessness, one would swear apartheid was in Nigeria and not South Africa but the thing about living under apartheid is that we know that the fight is never over, we never lose hope just like the Palestinians keep fighting and the black Americans too. Instead of being ashamed that South Africa was supposed to be looking up to Nigeria and take time to introspect they see South Africa as the enemy. That time the real enemy has their foot on their neck. We can't be fighting neocolonialism while at the same time defending ourselves from other Africans. 😢I now understand why Nigeria has such a negative view on us. These are the things that they hear in their media about us and make no mistake, the west is involved. I'd expect better from a scholar.
How are we to blame when we just partially got out of the apartheid era 30 years ago and they've had way longer to be making moves that put Africa at the forefront? It's like a grown adult who sat and did nothing with their life having a problem with a kid that decided to do different and make a change. I can't believe that North Africa is more on the same page with us than West African nations. It is sad to see how weak and down on their knees they are. We're not competing with you, even Egypt that's always passing us economically understands that.
@ Victor Okhai: "South Africa is not positioing itself as a leader of BRICS," they deserve it. Nigeria in its current state is not qualified and shld not be allowed into the group. We need to put our governance and economy together, and these include showing that we dealing with the issues of food production, government revenue, corruption, security, and all essential sercives before we can apply and be considered. Simply, we shld put our home in order before applying and being considered.
South Africa's economy has considerably deteriorated since 2008.

I grew up in Canada. I never thought that one day my nation, Iran, would be held in high regard by so many people in the world.
I believe that one day, perhaps very soon, Nigeria and other great African nations will join in a global community that can thrive and throw away the yokes of western colonialism and neo imperialism.
Sure all will join because all is tired of America and EU Nigeria will join just consulting the house

South Africa would love to have Nigeria in Brics. We do not see Nigeria as a rival, yet Nigeria seems to regard us as its rival. I'm not privy to the inner workings of Brics & I cannot talk for them. I'm a civilian. If Nigeria did make a formal application to join Brics & was not considered, my take is that the current legal issues surrounding President Tinubu could have played a major part in that decision. Its about time Nigeria stopped thinking of itself as THE LEADER of Africa. A large population does not, of itself, bestow the honour of leadership to any country. No country has the right to regard itself as the leader of our continent.
he talks as if SA is the one that takes decision on membership of BRICKS when it is actually taken collectively by all BRICKS members mxm
Rivalry! What is wrong in rivalry? I wouldn't want us to join BRICS anymore because they have shown us they have animosity for us. It is better to steer clear of the group.
Nigeria`s way ahead of SA.
As a Nigerian I don't blame SA for anything, Nigerian leaders are very unserious and corrupt.
We can't be trusted for now until we fix our issues
@@youme1414Whether you want or not, nobody is going to admit a western puppet to collapse from the inside out a new organization formed to stand against the west. Sorry but no thanks 😢😢😢 Maybe Nigeria should try and join NATO where it rightly fits given its actions in Niger😅😅😅
Dr Okhai's analysis ia typical of the thinking of average Nigerian. BRICS is not a place to lobby as suggested here by Dr. Okhai said. You have to be deserving. Look at those nations and check Nigeria to see how they tangle?

How Nigeria didn't apply for the membership is beyond me. Nigerian politicians are too busy fighting themselves to see the bigger picture
Stealing
They have been applying to join BRICS for a long time and keep being declined because Nigeria remains the weakest link in Africa despite its sheer population and market size. To anchor a formation like BRICS, you need solid players that can be trusted. Players that are not servants of the western ideology.

"Desperate nations", perhaps the host intended to say disparate? In my humble opinion!🙂
My advice to brics not to allow Nigeria joint brics Nigeria is a big threat to the unity of Africa
"We need to be on the table" i love that 👍
So clean up your act and meet the requirements
Nigeria suffers from main character syndrome.Its always a competition .Algeria was also rejected. To say south africa is responsible for not including Nigeria is a lie. All african countries can lead for our continent to be prosperous
There's no need for Nigeria to compete with us. BRICS is not a competition but countries coming together for their common interests. For Nigeria to blame South Africa is one of the reasons why Nigeria will never move forward politically and economically. Blame game is not gonna solve their problems.
Im so happy to see more American countries joining Bricks(Argentina), that should worry USA and ask them to see if their foreign policies are doing any good.
Brics is getting stronger and stronger..well done SA , China, Brazil,India and big Russia for being the genesis of fareness for all nations.
Nigerian leaders need to show they genuinely care about their citizens, their wellbeing and genuine development. Right now, Nigerian leaders seem to be stooges of the West. No one takes Nigerian leaders seriously.
The sooner Nigeria and Nigerians accept that SA influence to the world is bigger than theirs the better. Why blame SA for being rejected to join BRICS ?
we've proved many times to this foreigners that SA is the giant of Africa by carrying Africa's economic burden by hosting millions of economic migrants coming from all 53 African countries
It's obvious SA is the giant of Africa.. Nigeria is just among d top 3 giant of oil producers in Africa
SA influence in BRICS is being used here. You are not smart my friend. We fought that you might have freedom. So shut it!
@LLEntertainment Yes, we fought for you.

Am from South Africa 🇿🇦 yes we are the leading in the continent, if you think South Africa is in BRICS by mistake why are we in G20 not as organisation but have our own permanent member? We are small in terms of numbers but we significant, if we had numbers like Nigeria we could be in G7.
Why is it necessary to be the leader? Why can't we aim to join BRICS to contribute to something good? Nigerian leaders can barely lead well in their own country, why would any coalition of African nations seeking progress want such leadership at their helm?

Really Dr, South Africa was invited by China to join the Bric group, so how do you blame SA for taking opportunity. Nigeria as a sovereign country has the right to apply or invited like any country whether opportunity will be taken seriously depends on the legislators.

Okay let's leave BRICS.... Who is stopping Nigeria to be part of G20.....cause very soon south Africa will be blamed for that by Nigeria
There are certain requirements to qualify joining BRICS. Nigeria should first and foremost fix the multiple socioeconomic internal problems first and to disengage from the severe disadvantages of western interference and bending to their dictates. We are fully able to succeed with the right type of seriously focused leadership without corruption and selfish aggrandizement.
I like how the presenter did not entertain the idea of South Africa not wanting Nigeria to join😅
Brics should beware of the Nigeria criminlas insensitive leaders.
