    Integration with the local people by employing them and giving them skills, giving back to the host community by taking up their social responsibility and promoting the poor to achieve their potentials is the right way to defeat xenophobia, but quiet often the new comers exploit the locals, look down upon them, steal their girls or spoil them and fail to take their social responsibilities thus leading to the anger of the locals. Somalis are doing their bit, but what about the Nigerians, Zimbabweans and ethiopians?

    And I believe these ppl who's also severing a poor condition, healthy issues, lack of development and absence of necessary infrastructure are not willing to target their fellow African brothers but it was misguided their shooting spot to not discover the real snake bitten them at the back.
