😂😂😂😂😂😂I really where they get that idea that we SAns want to lead the continent😂😂😂😂😂I have seen this type of videos from Nigerians😂😂😂😂my God, they need to go on and lead if that's whT they want, we as South Africans really don't cate😏😒🙄
Giants are scary 😂😂😂 our interest is a world without Apartheid, religious bigotry, and access to opportunities that can make humanity better.... And we have our million problems and errors in judgements.... Give the tittle and the throne to Nigeria or Somalia its one and the same for us we will still be loyal to Mzantsism.
As south africans we don't about being giant of Africa. Nigeria can win the title because they are obsessed of being giant Africa. We just want to left alone.
Leadership are you serious. Instead of focusing on how we can create wealth or job opportunities for ourselves we are always focused on the wrong issues that’s why these fights are useless including ghana
@@toontumnetworkwe dont want that title, being called giant doesn't mean your a good leader or smarter than others.....Nigeria can keep that title it serves no purpose in south africa and for south africans. We want stability, economy that represent the majority of people, road to be build, hospitals, schools, universities, basic needs covered, water and electricity, jobs, business opportunities......we dont care for a title that has no impact in ordinary lives of south africans
To be honest as south africans we don't compare or measure ourselves against any African country because our focus is taking Africa to another level of development. But what I see is seeing and hearing how Nigerians always comparing themselves to us. We don't care about this thing of being giant of Africa that Nigerians are obsessed with. For us it's nothing really we do our thing.
Nigeria never compare themselves to south Africa, Nigeria call themselves giant of Africa because of its large population. The speaker doing the comparison is Ghana, not Nigeria.
Nigeria has never compare themselves as more develop than Nigeria, they can compare with music, movies. They have never claim to be more developed. I don't know why fellow Africans like dragging Nigerians .
South Africans don't care for these rankings, most of us just want a good quality of life. Access to education, quality healthcare, & functional infrastructure are all key socio economic indicators that deserve our attention, not for global recognition, but for our citizens.
They are soo obsessed with being called number 1, and great giant , and yet they had decades to prove themselves and compete with the rest of the world while we were in slavery 20or so years back. This is so tiring, why don't they just compete with Ghana, Rwanda etc, and leave us alone!😂. We could be called just an ant in Africa, we are good!.
You don't care. You do not speak for everyone. I am not nigerian, but this I will say that they own 95% of their economy. I am talking about black own. I don't have to say who owns the economy in SA.

A Namibian here, in my opinion I have never heard South Africans compare themselves to any other African country but I hear a lot of Nigerians coming for South Africa. That being said if we are forced to choose just based of behaviour alone i would say let Nigeria lead west African countries and us Southern African countries will keep South Africa. I mean look at the shameful behaviour of the Nigerian government towards other west African countries when Europe and US attack other African countries, didn't ECOWAS under Nigeria come against a fellow African country that wanted to gain their freedom? Who will they lead? How they lead? Meanwhile South Africa has done it's best to always defend and help not only it's neighbouring countries but also other African countries for example in Libya and recently in Ethiopia. Edit: note that since this video is mostly assessing the CURRENT events on the continent as indicators of a leading country , my comment above also focuses on the current situation in how the two countries relate to other African countries. Can Nigerians honestly say that Nigeria as it is can lead Africa?
Thank you, and we really don't compare ourselves to anybody, we are too busy trying to solve our ish.....in our country. Nigerians they like to make this type of videos comparing themselves to us🙄🙄🙄. It is tiring seriously if they want to lead Africa they can go on😂😂😂😂😂nobody cares, us South Africans we are still worried about out internal affairs we need to lead ourselves properly b4 we go to the whole continent. My goodness Nigerians do on be the giants you always call yourselves as 😂😂😂😂😂we don't care.
The Nigerian senate vetoed sending any army to Niger so you are wrong. Lets not act like southern African countries dont mistreat each other.

Nigerians always want to compete, even if another country is mentioned in a good even if it is not South Africa they will have to try and take the shine and mention that they are greater.

One thing about South Africa is we don't compete with no other country... We're our own competition and always lookin to improve all the time. And our other main focus is to improve our SADC countries be helping each other and learning from each other. If we were into competition, we wouldn't even go and compete with West, Central, East or North Africans, we would rater compete with countries like Namibia 🇳🇦, Botswana 🇧🇼, Zambia, Lesotho 🇱🇸 etc. But we don't have a good vision hence we don't see competition.

You should give Nigeria the respect because Nigeria is a Black country and developing by Black Nigerians not Foreigners. 95% of the companies in Nigeria owned by Nigerians. The Nigerian economy owned by Nigerians not Foreigners. All the Billionaires in Nigeria are Nigerians. Most of the popular Banks in Africa are Nigerian Banks. In South Africa, over 90% of the big companies owned by White South Africans, Europeans, Indians, Americans and Chinese. All of the Billionaires in South Africa are Whites except only one Black Billionaire. The Whites own South Africa economy. The Europeans built and developed South Africa. Everything in South Africa was built by Europeans. That's why they called South Africa the Rainbow Nation. South Africa is not a Black country. South Africa is now the third largest economy in Africa. Nigeria is the most popular and influential country in Africa and also the most powerful Black country in the world.
South Africa has more influence in the world than Nigeria. The only thing Nigeria has influence on is music. Western nations don't look to Nigeria they are not even in the G20

@@maxjaytv How so dominated? I bet you have zero idea of SA context. The macro level of the economy (which deals with the means of production) is dominated by mainly the black government and a few whites. The micro level of the economy which consists of upper, middle and lower middle class is dominated by black people. It consists of millionaires, shareholders, board members, directors, CEOs, senior managers, managers, and junior managers. The black middle class controls the purchasing power of the economy, they can afford to live in gated estates with luxurious homes, porche cars, etc. I bet this you don't understand because SA, unlike your country Nigeria, (which is a lower middle class economy and largely informal) , is an upper middle class economy and highly industrialized and produces the above results.

Speaking as a South African, on behalf of my fellow countrymen, we have no strong inclination to assume a leadership role in Africa. Nigerians may continue to be the dominant force on the continent as the "Giant of Africa."
Here in RSA we are just trying to build a better life for all. We are not in competition with any African countries. We don't even see the need to compare ourselves with other African countries. Whichever country that wants to take the number 1 spot can have it. Isn't it about time we realise that we are not competitors but allies.

When you are comparing Nigeria and South Africa, you should be looking at the black community. Most South Africans think they are superior to other African countries. The whites are the ones making the moves and not the black. You cannot compare South African blacks to Nigeria. We want real black representation in Africa and not those with more foreign interest rather than African interest. The blacks in South Africa are relaxed and wait for government grants for almost everything while Nigeria are goal getters and born hustlers. Nigeria can achieve anything. God loves Nigeria.
i am south africa we have never said we are superior i think people like u are jeleous u have a tendancy to think nigeria better untill u meet us who dont see anything special about u
Always remember that the grants u are talking about, are tax collection from big companies and from the working class, there are no free grants, but they come from a functioning tax collection government system - which also gives us free medication and building of more infrastructure, pension money for the elder people - so many other projects. The same resources that other African countries have, that what we working on - Look a Botswana, Namibia, Swaziland even Zimbabwe, Zambia, Mozambique, and Malawi ( these countries have identical cultures and the same style we don't complain but move forward, and we don't make unnecessary noise - Southern African countries are doing better than most West African countries. These countries are huge in size, but their population is way less than that of West Africa

The Ghana/Nigeria rivalry I understand because of the similarities and proximity.

To be honest, Nigeria is still a primary economy while SA is probably a tertiary economy. What it means is that Nigeria is not close to South Africa at the moment but has a huge potential for triple or more the economy of south Africa. There's will be no comparison.
Why are we still stuck in the cycle of comparing countries? Does it really serve any purpose other than stirring up tension and creating unnecessary divides? As a proud Nigerian who spent a decade in South Africa, I can attest to the fact that both nations have their unique strengths and flaws. Instead of perpetuating this 'A vs B' narrative, let's focus on the collective contributions each African nation brings to the table. We should be working towards fostering unity, building strong economies, and enhancing security within our continent, rather than relying on external influences. I have immense respect for South Africa and its people-they've taught me valuable lessons during my 10 years there. some great experience and some horribles ones too. But I'm tired of these comparisons that seem to add no real value. It's time to move beyond this divisive rhetoric and concentrate on the positive aspects that can benefit us all.

One can't argue or quibble with your paper analysis too much, because that's what it is !! It is all paperwork for certain! South Africa does start off with a near "first world" infrastructure from the nearly 370 years of European settlement in the country! And despite its previous apartheid policies , it had support from a great number of European countries in helping it build and retain its infrastructure over many decades! In fact there is no gainsaying that despite given up political power to Black South Africans, the whites still dominate and control the economy of South Africa! Fact! Also for various reasons and intentions, a huge Jewish, Asian and so called Coloured populations were allowed to thrive in South Africa! Leaving all that aside, Nigeria will NEVER do well on paper reports! And that is partially Nigeria's fault, as we ourselves fail to document a lot of our own processes and procedures! To put it shortly, Nigeria is missing out big time because of our inability to document ourselves and our modern existence! Nigeria for instance does not collect taxes from a great number of its citizens who earn income!! We only seem to focus on government workers and hoisting heavy bills on more reputable and established companies! From well diggers to roadside mechanics, to street corners vendors, to local cafeterias, none pay any viable tax to government!! Well none that the government can document for reference purposes! We need to man up and apply steely resolve to capture and document our taxes and duties as accrued! Property tax are rare for instance, and in a country where people pride themselves on building their own personal homes(often without mortgages)! So people are earning money without contributions into government coffers!! Nigeria is also very slow on touting the country as tourist destination! The potential is huge and it can be a viable alternative or additional option for great revenue! That also needs to be reformed as soon as possible! I can only agree that our style of governance even within the democratic process , still apes the myopic system of previous military regimes! We need to "exploit" democracy beyond elections, we need to begin to reap the benefits or dividends of democracy! But Nigeria is turning the corner, just like the presenter himself says, there has been movements of sorts in the past (most recent) 20 years! This ties in with the extent of time Nigeria became a democracy again since 1999. It is my belief that in another 20 years or so, Nigeria will tick more of the good points in the box! But as for the most influential country in Africa, I give that to Nigeria ANYDAY!!! Our vast population and its extensive diaspora across the world gives Nigerians untold leverage in this regard! Our movies, music and cuisine are now better known than South Africa's and gives us added relevance! Our Nigerian writers books have often featured on the school curriculums of many other African countries! Our various artworks of carvings, paintings and brass works of centuries old, grace some of the most famous and prominent museums of many countries of the world! Let me be clear, South Africa will always be a solid competitor for the most influential country in Africa, but we will always hold our own ! Still we move! 👊🏾🇳🇬👊🏾🇳🇬!
Interesting" black owned" but yet their is no real benefit for an average Nigerian ! Tell me which one is better for an average south African or Nigerian ? Because south African has 1 . Better roads 2.better airports and many but Nigeria has a larger population 3. Better hospital 4.better schools and universities 5.free education 6.electticity is better 7.better infrastructure in general All of this are public services that average south Africans benifit from: not including social grants and old age grants grants for disabled and road accident funds Look at the geopolitics situation! South Africa is in BRICS ,G20 and everyone is interested in what we say and think ! I haven't heard anyone wanting to hear what Nigeria thinks ! We are the best travel destinations in Africa Nigeria is not even in the top 10 . South Africa is the number 1 invester in Africa when it comes to other African countries! We just won the rugby world cup this is the 4th time ! Cape town was voted as the most beautiful city in the world I mean miles ahead of any city in Nigeria South Africa has hosted rugby world cup,FIFA world cup, cricket world cup . We are the only country in africa manufacture and produce trains. Other than music ,movies and population their is nothing really because even if u take GDP u break it down to GDP per capita we better than u
@@just_by_luck Still white owned! You are merely regurgitating the same paper report as the presenter! All of it can be subjected to translation! China is not a member of the G7, but it stands only behind ( and threatens) America in terms of global influence! India , which is also in BRICS was for many years the poverty capital of the world! So these "weather reports" do not count for too much! As we speak there are still enclaves in South Africa that Black peoples can't visit let alone live in! Blacks are still being barred from restaurants and swimming pools! Most demeaning! And this is even happening in the supposedly most beautiful city of Cape Town! Of course I see that you are visually impressed by your white built South Africa! As a South African passport holder, you will be treated most differently from a white South African in many parts of Europe!! As for your country being more visited, that's all well and good! I as a Nigerian have a morbid fear of ever stepping foot in SA! I can't understand what my fellow Nigerians are doing there! Your "toyi-toyi" violent and vicious dancing mobs could be unleashed at any time. I never want to see that nonsense! But put it this way, two children from two households are watching tv! One is watching a big colour tv while another is watching a black and white tv! Yet the one watching the colour tv, is standing discreetly outside a window looking in into his neighbours house! But the one watching the black and white tv is seated comfortably in his own living room with his family all around him! Which child is going to grow up to be more confident and have more self worthiness? 👊🏾🇳🇬👊🏾🇳🇬!
For me as a south african, i enjoyed your analyses, however i would like to see both this countries working together for the battement of this continent without competing.
Nigerians don't share same sentiments they love titles they are arrogant ppl so don't even start about this working together it will never stop forcing things.
How? Because their people are selling drugs in our country and killing our youth, they are killing the future of our country, yet you say we must work together🤷🏼♂🤷🏼♂
It doesn't matter even if as South Africa we are number 10 on the list. The most important thing is to continue building this country for the next generation and restore the infrastructure that others try so hard to destroy.
Never bro. Until you free your country from Neo colonial British mentality that define the modern Nigeria which is still controlled by Octogenarians while 70 percent are below 60. Rather forget and admit than fight just as the whole whole world is submitting to the springboks.wait for 100 yrs bro

"Never" is a word we Nigerians do not consent to, there is no limit to what we believe we can achieve. As I earlier stated, my brother's analysis is fair, we accept and appreciate where we are at the moment, and we are %100 convinced that we will get there someday, at least not in an apartheid society, at the end, we will beat our chest, and say, "everything we have built, we own"
@@Clintlesslortslaves? How so? Most of Nigerians lucrative markets are owned by the British and a few corrupt leaders 😅. The Nigerian people don’t own anything. At least in South Africa we build and own our own home grown companies that run our countries and lots of other African countries too

South Africa is not a true representation of Africa. South Africa is 6(% foreign and 35% Africa. They do not have much respect or value for West and East Africans. As a Nigerian, I have more respect for Ghana, Kenya, Uganda, Rwanda than South Africa.
As the Chinese diplomat put it Britain (Nigeria) is not a competitor, is not an enemy but jut an important trade partner. We not in competition with them level of industrialization, Level of human development. Poverty ratio is not the same lets stop even comparing theres nothing to compare between SA and Nigeria
@hlanganisambatha614 Of course it is an insult! All of the business dealings my company in Nigeria had with South Africans, these South Africans were white, so it is an insult to be compared to the blacks because You guys are irrelevant in the grand skim of things! So I agree
I love the video, my sir. As a proud South Ah, with Naija being the most traveled from country paints a grim image of what we think of our continent, we have fought through so many adversities however we do not have legacy planning, people boast about having the highest quality education but what has that done for your family, community, city, province, and country? I appreciate that no individual can change a whole land, having said that, we have a lot of art that we are showcasing to the rest of the world and it is at a standstill as they watch us flourish, with Amapiano and Afrobeats. it's good to dance but I refuse to believe that is only the handful of things we are good at as ABANTU. we no longer have a right to boast about past accolades; what are we doing and going to do as the land's current stewards. The old people are dying, the 65 to 100-year-olds, and they are leaving us with nothing, are we going to be foolish like them? They sold us out to save their families and friends. We are a people of innovators, inventors, and visionary thinkers, LET US BE THAT DREAM, we cannot be exporting people from the land when we have the ability to allow them to prosper but instead, we feed them to drugs and prostitution. THIS IS OUR LAND, this is how we should all feel about it. I am a South African before that I AM A CHILD OF THIS LAND.
Good insight, but when you feed them drug and prostitutions what do you mean about that? do you want to blame Nigerians for that? because you are always blaming everyone in your country, but you people do the worst,
@lozi4163 you are filled with hatred for Nigeria. You confuse migration with traveling. As it stands because of the population and bad economic condition in Nigeria. Nigeria is among the most travelled from country, that is not a good thing to be proud of anyway. However. You so much hate Nigeria that you refuse to use your head when reading things and responding.
@@lozi4163tell me ur a fool without telling me ur one 😂. Nigeria is ranked with the African nations with most purchasing power and the amount of Nigerians above poverty line are more than ur entire nation population 😂.
Toontum, I love what you are doing... good job! but it still remain that this stats site gives you old data, for example in 2023 nigeria military bugget is apr 2.5 billion dollars where sa keeps goind down yrealy now 3 billion dollars.
Good content no doubt; but you forget to tell us your audience that all the indices and advantages enjoyed by South Africa come from the White population of South Africa while the vices and disadvantages come from indigenous Black South Africans. Unlike its rival - Nigeria where everything starts and ends with its indigenous people. What if all the White population decides to move to its motherland in Europe, every advantage of South Africa will crumble like a pack of cards. Naija 🇳🇬 reigns supreme!
Yes a very point you made. Whilst the host has based his assessment on objective numbers there other factors which are necessary to be a true leader. Leader also requires soft skills like boldness, sacrifice, camaraderie and acceptance of leadership role. In all of these Nigeria has in the past played a great role in Africa. At moment the country is plagued with internal political and economic problems but without any doubt Nigeria's future looks bright and human capabilities too
There is so much bitterness written all over your comment. You are so bitter that the white South Africans used the South African resources to build South Africa whilst your own people squandered all the Nigerian resources and enriched themselves!
It's the typical Ghanian mindset against Nigerians and he's spewing out same bs as Sammy flex who is very pained by the success of the Nigerian entertainment industry
What are you talking about, every country in Africa was colonised, when Nigeria gained independence from Britain, the British (white) people left their infrastructure on the hands of the indigenous Nigerians, and it was then up to you to advance the given infrastructure on, but unfortunately the new black government in Nigeria lacked. Where as in South Africa between 1994(democracy) and till now (2023) South Africa’s new black government has taken up the responsibility of building up 60% of all infrastructure you see now in SA, so it has nothing to do with being white or black it has to do with responsibility of the government and unfortunately for Nigeria South Africa’s government(black ) does way more work than any other country on the African continent hans SA having the most infrastructure.
we r not barbaric we decided to live and work together to build this country since Mandela. This is a white man's world baby, they run Nigeria like a fuck while not living in it. wake up!!! Afrobeats, Nollywood....how helpful is that. Its a shame.
As a South African I want neither South Africa nor Nigeria to rule, we are perfect the way we are and the roles our countries play in the society are equally important and well recognised, but I still don't think Africa should have a ruling country.
There is no competition and there won't be one leader of any continent. Nigeria can't project power beyond its own borders and South Africa is mostly folding its arms and not doing much on the continent out of a need to build itself up. These are two countries in completely different stages of development. One can build entire tanks, missile systems, radar systems, full-size military drones, locomotives and BMWs - the other buys cars off Alibaba and calls them homemade.
what the f***k do you mean SA is folding its arms? do you even know what SA is doing for Africa? like there is no nation that has done what SA is doing for Africa and it continues to do so, son't just say things out of resentment and bitterness, speak from a position of research and reality
@@davidenejo last I checked the cars were bought online from China and only 30% of Nigerians know what electricity is. Even then, that 30% experiences power for only ~4 hours a day. Patriotism is great, but base it on facts - for a country with 133 million people living in abject poverty, no access to basic services or education Nigerians are very mouthy. Just fyi, 133 million of you live in extreme poverty, 210 million live in poverty and the rest are supposedly middle class and up - but not enough for even Mazda to establish a presence there. SA and Naija are at very different stages of development. Get over it. But Niger is there so you guys can compare notes. I think Ghana is much farther ahead of you guys so don't bother them.
I respect Nigeria it is honestly a Giant in Africa. Together we can do more. Nigeria's people are respecable because despite your difficult history the nation stands tall. As a saffer, i will tell you that we are interested in developing Africa and South Africa. We have problems too, especially corruption. All these problems are our concern. We couldn't care less about titles.
Nigeria remains a big brother in africa ....there are a number of african and non african nations that have been on our beneficiary list for decades ....we have the strength of more than one nation ....and in no time we will contain all the preasures they exert on us and earn our well deserved flower.....its green white and green to the marrows.🇳🇬
These statictics are created from a western view or perspective on Africa, I think from an African view Nigeria would at least be the second most influential if not the first in Africa.
Nigeria is not more influential than SA, Egypt and Morocco, from 2023 they not even in top 10. When stats don't favour you, you complain but same western agent when they put you first, you glorify them, Nigerians are underachievers and you are use to people who kiss ass bracing you'll for nothing when reality say's something else. Nigeria is a glorified loser hence most Africans are not migrating to Nigeria but almost all Africans have Nigerian migrants simply because everywhere is better than Nigeria
Dear South Africans its our duty and responsibility to comment on the gazetted department of home affairs white papers. Our immigration, refugee act, asylum seekers etc need an overhaul amendment.....lets come out in our numbers to comment on the white, it can be done in all 11 official languages. Its high time we put our energy on protecting our country. Amandla!!!
What is this obsession with Nigeria 🇳🇬 and Nigerians, from presidents, to politicians , to entertainers, influencers, Academians etc everybody wants to dissect what it is to be a Nigerian, what makes us who and what we are.

All this African failed nations of beggars are hating black South Africans for the lives they have in their own country forcing themselves on them mxm. Just wait for mass deportation to take place in SA you will se how all this ungrateful creatures will cry
Honestly we as South Africans dnt care about the giant of Africa "contest" Nigeria can take it, we have 50% of our people still living under the poverty line mostly being the people of color, particularly blacks and the idea that South African blacks are lazy and are too depended on the government is so unrealistic and foolish, for the government to function properly it has to be held accountable by the people who brought it into power and if you cannot understand....it simply means you are in a disfunctional partnership with your own government "disclaimer"South Africa is far from being perfect but many platforms have been created for any african to make it South Africa....yes its still not easy its but possible
You're on point, though am from Nigeria, have watched a documentary on South Africa where citizen was complaining that d foreigners were taking the job that belong to them, I was so surprise that sa citizen can make such statement, if sa citizen are industrious no one can take your place,
Were you get your stats? do you know what is under poverty line? SA has 55.5% of upper bond poverty line, do you even know what that means? that is a standard of a nation that is developing, not third world standard like Nigeria. Upper bond poverty Line will be considered a solid middle class in countries like Nigeria. There is no data suggesting that SA has 50% of people living under poverty line, that's insane and only a person who is not well informed will type such. SA would have lost its status of been an upper middle income nation, it wouldn't even make sense. From world bank statistics, we have 23% of poverty rate as of 2022 and not under poverty or abject poverty but just poverty. The statistics on world bank comes from stats SA, keep in mind, SA measures a poor person by living below $4.8 a day while the rest of Africa uses $1.8 a day, so already even our standards to measure poverty are very high. What we usually call poverty in SA will be a low middle income in Nigeria and our stats disregard people in informal settlements while African governments consider people in informal settlement employed
I am a Ghanaian and I am glad to hear most South Africans do not care about being giant of Africa. SF have their own issues to deal with. I don’t think SF is even ready or Nigeria for that matter. A great leader of Africa must be smart and know what they are doing. They must not be influenced by external powers and all that so for me those to countries cannot be even though you are looking at their economy, land etc.
As a South African, from the bottom of our hearts. We have no desire to lead the continent. We have even less desire to be "The Giants" of Africa.

A Namibian here, in my opinion I have never heard South Africans compare themselves to any other African country but I hear a lot of Nigerians coming for South Africa. That being said if we are forced to choose just based of behaviour alone i would say let Nigeria lead west African countries and us Southern African countries will keep South Africa. I mean look at the shameful behaviour of the Nigerian government towards other west African countries when Europe and US attack other African countries, didn't ECOWAS under Nigeria come against a fellow African country that wanted to gain their freedom? Who will they lead? How they lead?
Meanwhile South Africa has done it's best to always defend and help not only it's neighbouring countries but also other African countries for example in Libya and recently in Ethiopia.

It consists of millionaires, shareholders, board members, directors, CEOs, senior managers, managers, and junior managers. The black middle class controls the purchasing power of the economy, they can afford to live in gated estates with luxurious homes, porche cars, etc.

When you are comparing Nigeria and South Africa, you should be looking at the black community. Most South Africans think they are superior to other African countries. The whites are the ones making the moves and not the black. You cannot compare South African blacks to Nigeria. We want real black representation in Africa and not those with more foreign interest rather than African interest. The blacks in South Africa are relaxed and wait for government grants for almost everything while Nigeria are goal getters and born hustlers. Nigeria can achieve anything. God loves Nigeria.
This is analysis is very poor. South Africa was built by the slave masters and they are still there just like Israel and Palestin.
i am south africa we have never said we are superior i think people like u are jeleous u have a tendancy to think nigeria better untill u meet us who dont see anything special about u
Always remember that the grants u are talking about, are tax collection from big companies and from the working class, there are no free grants, but they come from a functioning tax collection government system - which also gives us free medication and building of more infrastructure, pension money for the elder people - so many other projects. The same resources that other African countries have, that what we working on - Look a Botswana, Namibia, Swaziland even Zimbabwe, Zambia, Mozambique, and Malawi ( these countries have identical cultures and the same style we don't complain but move forward, and we don't make unnecessary noise - Southern African countries are doing better than most West African countries.
These countries are huge in size, but their population is way less than that of West Africa

Me myself am surprised why jolloff guys flock 2 south Africa 😂
One can't argue or quibble with your paper analysis too much, because that's what it is !!
It is all paperwork for certain!
South Africa does start off with a near "first world" infrastructure from the nearly 370 years of European settlement in the country!
And despite its previous apartheid policies , it had support from a great number of European countries in helping it build and retain its infrastructure over many decades!
In fact there is no gainsaying that despite given up political power to Black South Africans, the whites still dominate and control the economy of South Africa!
Fact!
Also for various reasons and intentions, a huge Jewish, Asian and so called Coloured populations were allowed to thrive in South Africa!
Leaving all that aside, Nigeria will NEVER do well on paper reports!
And that is partially Nigeria's fault, as we ourselves fail to document a lot of our own processes and procedures!
To put it shortly, Nigeria is missing out big time because of our inability to document ourselves and our modern existence!
Nigeria for instance does not collect taxes from a great number of its citizens who earn income!!
We only seem to focus on government workers and hoisting heavy bills on more reputable and established companies!
From well diggers to roadside mechanics, to street corners vendors, to local cafeterias, none pay any viable tax to government!!
Well none that the government can document for reference purposes!
We need to man up and apply steely resolve to capture and document our taxes and duties as accrued!
Property tax are rare for instance, and in a country where people pride themselves on building their own personal homes(often without mortgages)!
So people are earning money without contributions into government coffers!!
Nigeria is also very slow on touting the country as tourist destination!
The potential is huge and it can be a viable alternative or additional option for great revenue!
That also needs to be reformed as soon as possible!
I can only agree that our style of governance even within the democratic process , still apes the myopic system of previous military regimes!
We need to "exploit" democracy beyond elections, we need to begin to reap the benefits or dividends of democracy!
But Nigeria is turning the corner, just like the presenter himself says, there has been movements of sorts in the past (most recent) 20 years!
This ties in with the extent of time Nigeria became a democracy again since 1999.
It is my belief that in another 20 years or so, Nigeria will tick more of the good points in the box!
But as for the most influential country in Africa, I give that to Nigeria ANYDAY!!!
Our vast population and its extensive diaspora across the world gives Nigerians untold leverage in this regard!
Our movies, music and cuisine are now better known than South Africa's and gives us added relevance!
Our Nigerian writers books have often featured on the school curriculums of many other African countries!
Our various artworks of carvings, paintings and brass works of centuries old, grace some of the most famous and prominent museums of many countries of the world!
Let me be clear, South Africa will always be a solid competitor for the most influential country in Africa, but we will always hold our own !
Still we move!
👊🏾🇳🇬👊🏾🇳🇬!
Love this from South Africa
Interesting" black owned" but yet their is no real benefit for an average Nigerian !
Tell me which one is better for an average south African or Nigerian ?
Because south African has
1 . Better roads
2.better airports and many but Nigeria has a larger population
3. Better hospital
4.better schools and universities
5.free education
6.electticity is better
7.better infrastructure in general
All of this are public services that average south Africans benifit from: not including social grants and old age grants grants for disabled and road accident funds
Look at the geopolitics situation! South Africa is in BRICS ,G20 and everyone is interested in what we say and think ! I haven't heard anyone wanting to hear what Nigeria thinks !
We are the best travel destinations in Africa Nigeria is not even in the top 10 .
South Africa is the number 1 invester in Africa when it comes to other African countries!
We just won the rugby world cup this is the 4th time !
Cape town was voted as the most beautiful city in the world I mean miles ahead of any city in Nigeria
South Africa has hosted rugby world cup,FIFA world cup, cricket world cup .
We are the only country in africa manufacture and produce trains.
Other than music ,movies and population their is nothing really because even if u take GDP u break it down to GDP per capita we better than u
@@just_by_luck Still white owned!
You are merely regurgitating the same paper report as the presenter!
All of it can be subjected to translation!
China is not a member of the G7, but it stands only behind ( and threatens) America in terms of global influence!
India , which is also in BRICS was for many years the poverty capital of the world!
So these "weather reports" do not count for too much!
As we speak there are still enclaves in South Africa that Black peoples can't visit let alone live in!
Blacks are still being barred from restaurants and swimming pools!
Most demeaning! And this is even happening in the supposedly most beautiful city of Cape Town!
Of course I see that you are visually impressed by your white built South Africa!
As a South African passport holder, you will be treated most differently from a white South African in many parts of Europe!!
As for your country being more visited, that's all well and good!
I as a Nigerian have a morbid fear of ever stepping foot in SA! I can't understand what my fellow Nigerians are doing there!
Your "toyi-toyi" violent and vicious dancing mobs could be unleashed at any time.
I never want to see that nonsense!
But put it this way, two children from two households are watching tv!
One is watching a big colour tv while another is watching a black and white tv!
Yet the one watching the colour tv, is standing discreetly outside a window looking in into his neighbours house!
But the one watching the black and white tv is seated comfortably in his own living room with his family all around him!
Which child is going to grow up to be more confident and have more self worthiness?
👊🏾🇳🇬👊🏾🇳🇬!
For me as a south african, i enjoyed your analyses, however i would like to see both this countries working together for the battement of this continent without competing.
❤❤❤
Nigerians don't share same sentiments they love titles they are arrogant ppl so don't even start about this working together it will never stop forcing things.
How?
Because their people are selling drugs in our country and killing our youth, they are killing the future of our country, yet you say we must work together🤷🏼♂🤷🏼♂
Nigerians are competing with South africa😂😂theyre in pain
@@nkazimulondlovu8056 when and how did we try to compete with you guys ??
It doesn't matter even if as South Africa we are number 10 on the list. The most important thing is to continue building this country for the next generation and restore the infrastructure that others try so hard to destroy.
Thanks for the input
Hi brother great channel and information. We as Africa need to unite and fight modern colonization.
Go and fight in your own ciuntry..... we don't have issues here🇿🇦
Im a Nigerian, your analysis is fair my brother, we will get there someday.
Thank you... Truly appreciate your comment and hope you've subscribed
Never bro. Until you free your country from Neo colonial British mentality that define the modern Nigeria which is still controlled by Octogenarians while 70 percent are below 60. Rather forget and admit than fight just as the whole whole world is submitting to the springboks.wait for 100 yrs bro
@@KHWAHLAMBA Oh please stop! You that is living under a mordernized apartheid society is trying to lecture a truly free people on "colonial mentality." South Africans are a good example of modern-day slaves.
Please don't make me write things that will make you consider suicide.
"Never" is a word we Nigerians do not consent to, there is no limit to what we believe we can achieve. As I earlier stated, my brother's analysis is fair, we accept and appreciate where we are at the moment, and we are %100 convinced that we will get there someday, at least not in an apartheid society, at the end, we will beat our chest, and say, "everything we have built, we own"
@@Clintlesslortslaves? How so? Most of Nigerians lucrative markets are owned by the British and a few corrupt leaders 😅. The Nigerian people don’t own anything. At least in South Africa we build and own our own home grown companies that run our countries and lots of other African countries too
@@pump1180Keep telling yourself that, boo. You don't even own most of your own land. Some Nigerians may be a bit delusional about how economically free they really are, but SAs are on another planet.
South Africa has more clout globally Nigeria is basically a failed state & has absolutely no clout in Africa
South Africa is not a true representation of Africa. South Africa is 6(% foreign and 35% Africa. They do not have much respect or value for West and East Africans. As a Nigerian, I have more respect for Ghana, Kenya, Uganda, Rwanda than South Africa.
You are very correct
True, we don't need to be, we are unique like that, we don't fit in, we chart our own path
But South Africa standerd of living is far better than Nigeria
We really don't give a fvck about your respect
South Africa has 90% black Africans fact
I'm South African and we don't care about these things. We just want our government to work, reduce crime and dance to amapiano.
I'm a South African i love your content and comparison, because the 2 countries are best trading partners
I am Nigerian and it's a fair analysis brov. Keep it up
Thanks 🙏
As the Chinese diplomat put it Britain (Nigeria) is not a competitor, is not an enemy but jut an important trade partner. We not in competition with them level of industrialization, Level of human development. Poverty ratio is not the same lets stop even comparing theres nothing to compare between SA and Nigeria
Am glad now subscribe your UA-cam channel man with a radio voice good job done bro, keep on pushing
@@rasachigayomah6389 thanks my brother
South Africa should not be compared to any country in Africa
Yes I agree, A European built and owned country, Oh yes!
@barbarafadare9579 still it's an insult to be compared to Nigeria
@hlanganisambatha614 Of course it is an insult! All of the business dealings my company in Nigeria had with South Africans, these South Africans were white, so it is an insult to be compared to the blacks because You guys are irrelevant in the grand skim of things! So I agree
@hlanganisambatha614 If it were the white people we are being compared to....ok, not you
@@hlanganisambatha614 love this
I love the video, my sir. As a proud South Ah, with Naija being the most traveled from country paints a grim image of what we think of our continent, we have fought through so many adversities however we do not have legacy planning, people boast about having the highest quality education but what has that done for your family, community, city, province, and country? I appreciate that no individual can change a whole land, having said that, we have a lot of art that we are showcasing to the rest of the world and it is at a standstill as they watch us flourish, with Amapiano and Afrobeats. it's good to dance but I refuse to believe that is only the handful of things we are good at as ABANTU. we no longer have a right to boast about past accolades; what are we doing and going to do as the land's current stewards. The old people are dying, the 65 to 100-year-olds, and they are leaving us with nothing, are we going to be foolish like them? They sold us out to save their families and friends. We are a people of innovators, inventors, and visionary thinkers, LET US BE THAT DREAM, we cannot be exporting people from the land when we have the ability to allow them to prosper but instead, we feed them to drugs and prostitution. THIS IS OUR LAND, this is how we should all feel about it. I am a South African before that I AM A CHILD OF THIS LAND.
Good insight, but when you feed them drug and prostitutions what do you mean about that? do you want to blame Nigerians for that? because you are always blaming everyone in your country, but you people do the worst,
Traveling? you confuse migration and travelling. most Nigerians don't afford to travel
@lozi4163 you are filled with hatred for Nigeria. You confuse migration with traveling. As it stands because of the population and bad economic condition in Nigeria. Nigeria is among the most travelled from country, that is not a good thing to be proud of anyway. However. You so much hate Nigeria that you refuse to use your head when reading things and responding.
@@lozi4163tell me ur a fool without telling me ur one 😂. Nigeria is ranked with the African nations with most purchasing power and the amount of Nigerians above poverty line are more than ur entire nation population 😂.
Toontum, I love what you are doing... good job! but it still remain that this stats site gives you old data, for example in 2023 nigeria military bugget is apr 2.5 billion dollars where sa keeps goind down yrealy now 3 billion dollars.
Try to compare us with Sadc countries they are much better in half of the things than Nigeria self
Good content no doubt; but you forget to tell us your audience that all the indices and advantages enjoyed by South Africa come from the White population of South Africa while the vices and disadvantages come from indigenous Black South Africans. Unlike its rival - Nigeria where everything starts and ends with its indigenous people. What if all the White population decides to move to its motherland in Europe, every advantage of South Africa will crumble like a pack of cards. Naija 🇳🇬 reigns supreme!
Yes a very point you made. Whilst the host has based his assessment on objective numbers there other factors which are necessary to be a true leader. Leader also requires soft skills like boldness, sacrifice, camaraderie and acceptance of leadership role. In all of these Nigeria has in the past played a great role in Africa. At moment the country is plagued with internal political and economic problems but without any doubt Nigeria's future looks bright and human capabilities too
There is so much bitterness written all over your comment. You are so bitter that the white South Africans used the South African resources to build South Africa whilst your own people squandered all the Nigerian resources and enriched themselves!
It's the typical Ghanian mindset against Nigerians and he's spewing out same bs as Sammy flex who is very pained by the success of the Nigerian entertainment industry
What are you talking about, every country in Africa was colonised, when Nigeria gained independence from Britain, the British (white) people left their infrastructure on the hands of the indigenous Nigerians, and it was then up to you to advance the given infrastructure on, but unfortunately the new black government in Nigeria lacked. Where as in South Africa between 1994(democracy) and till now (2023) South Africa’s new black government has taken up the responsibility of building up 60% of all infrastructure you see now in SA, so it has nothing to do with being white or black it has to do with responsibility of the government and unfortunately for Nigeria South Africa’s government(black ) does way more work than any other country on the African continent hans SA having the most infrastructure.
we r not barbaric we decided to live and work together to build this country since Mandela. This is a white man's world baby, they run Nigeria like a fuck while not living in it. wake up!!! Afrobeats, Nollywood....how helpful is that. Its a shame.
As a South African I want neither South Africa nor Nigeria to rule, we are perfect the way we are and the roles our countries play in the society are equally important and well recognised, but I still don't think Africa should have a ruling country.
There is no competition and there won't be one leader of any continent. Nigeria can't project power beyond its own borders and South Africa is mostly folding its arms and not doing much on the continent out of a need to build itself up. These are two countries in completely different stages of development. One can build entire tanks, missile systems, radar systems, full-size military drones, locomotives and BMWs - the other buys cars off Alibaba and calls them homemade.
what the f***k do you mean SA is folding its arms? do you even know what SA is doing for Africa? like there is no nation that has done what SA is doing for Africa and it continues to do so, son't just say things out of resentment and bitterness, speak from a position of research and reality
Nigeria build cars of it own,not assembly them,Nigeria supply electricity to noubouring countries, get ur fact right before talking rubbish.
@@davidenejo last I checked the cars were bought online from China and only 30% of Nigerians know what electricity is. Even then, that 30% experiences power for only ~4 hours a day.
Patriotism is great, but base it on facts - for a country with 133 million people living in abject poverty, no access to basic services or education Nigerians are very mouthy.
Just fyi, 133 million of you live in extreme poverty, 210 million live in poverty and the rest are supposedly middle class and up - but not enough for even Mazda to establish a presence there.
SA and Naija are at very different stages of development. Get over it. But Niger is there so you guys can compare notes. I think Ghana is much farther ahead of you guys so don't bother them.
Period
The reason why South Africa doesn't do much intervention is because the government doesn't want to.
I respect Nigeria it is honestly a Giant in Africa. Together we can do more. Nigeria's people are respecable because despite your difficult history the nation stands tall.
As a saffer, i will tell you that we are interested in developing Africa and South Africa. We have problems too, especially corruption. All these problems are our concern. We couldn't care less about titles.
Thanks for sharing your thought
This comparison is not wrong, it didn't come out of a negative point of view like some try to make it to look like
Nigeria remains a big brother in africa ....there are a number of african and non african nations that have been on our beneficiary list for decades ....we have the strength of more than one nation ....and in no time we will contain all the preasures they exert on us and earn our well deserved flower.....its green white and green to the marrows.🇳🇬
That is what you people are always saying! But your obsession with South Africa is disturbing
Your strength is in your arrogance! You are blinded to the truth by pride
These statictics are created from a western view or perspective on Africa, I think from an African view Nigeria would at least be the second most influential if not the first in Africa.
Seriously 😒!!!
Isn't SA economy control by the Afrikaans?
Nigeria is not more influential than SA, Egypt and Morocco, from 2023 they not even in top 10. When stats don't favour you, you complain but same western agent when they put you first, you glorify them, Nigerians are underachievers and you are use to people who kiss ass bracing you'll for nothing when reality say's something else. Nigeria is a glorified loser hence most Africans are not migrating to Nigeria but almost all Africans have Nigerian migrants simply because everywhere is better than Nigeria
SA has always been influencial 😊...remember music is not the only measure ....besides music what else yall have
Dear South Africans its our duty and responsibility to comment on the gazetted department of home affairs white papers. Our immigration, refugee act, asylum seekers etc need an overhaul amendment.....lets come out in our numbers to comment on the white, it can be done in all 11 official languages. Its high time we put our energy on protecting our country. Amandla!!!
Well said. Thanks
What is this obsession with Nigeria 🇳🇬 and Nigerians, from presidents, to politicians , to entertainers, influencers, Academians etc everybody wants to dissect what it is to be a Nigerian, what makes us who and what we are. There is always a topic about Nigerians within Africa and outside Africa. You guys should give us a rest for once just once, we don’t care to compete with anybody we know who and what we are and that is how it has always been and will always be, WE MOVE.
I don't think you watch the podcast. It's not just comparing but showing how each of these countries can improve. Thanks for your opinion
@@toontumnetwork oh I did watch it ☺️ my point is we got where we are as NIGERIANS on our own by ourselves, we don’t want nor desire to be analyzed, dissected or put under a microscope in any manner or form by external bodies. We get all the hate, comparisons, jealousies from within and without and though we have never been bothered about it, it gets tiring to being talked about by ALL. We have always known our priorities as a people and WHO WE ARE, our leaders are far from perfect but WE WILL GET IT RIGHT.
@@joye5761 well noted and thanks for watching

@@joye5761these people like this Ghanaian dude spend more time talking about Nigeria than their own damn countries. Its so annoying and they always speak about Nigeria with malice. If we Nigerians are so terrible, focus attention elsewhere! Goodness.
Nigeria is obsessed with titles give them number 1
I like the comments my south african brothers are posting like they said we really dont care about giant what-what of the continent we just want better lives & peace😊🙏
Right and I appreciate all those comments.
All this African failed nations of beggars are hating black South Africans for the lives they have in their own country forcing themselves on them mxm. Just wait for mass deportation to take place in SA you will se how all this ungrateful creatures will cry
Honestly we as South Africans dnt care about the giant of Africa "contest" Nigeria can take it, we have 50% of our people still living under the poverty line mostly being the people of color, particularly blacks and the idea that South African blacks are lazy and are too depended on the government is so unrealistic and foolish, for the government to function properly it has to be held accountable by the people who brought it into power and if you cannot understand....it simply means you are in a disfunctional partnership with your own government "disclaimer"South Africa is far from being perfect but many platforms have been created for any african to make it South Africa....yes its still not easy its but possible
*for any African to make it in South Africa.
*still not easy but possible.
Thanks my brother... Your comment truly appreciated and hope you've subscribed
You're on point, though am from Nigeria, have watched a documentary on South Africa where citizen was complaining that d foreigners were taking the job that belong to them, I was so surprise that sa citizen can make such statement, if sa citizen are industrious no one can take your place,
Were you get your stats? do you know what is under poverty line? SA has 55.5% of upper bond poverty line, do you even know what that means? that is a standard of a nation that is developing, not third world standard like Nigeria. Upper bond poverty Line will be considered a solid middle class in countries like Nigeria. There is no data suggesting that SA has 50% of people living under poverty line, that's insane and only a person who is not well informed will type such. SA would have lost its status of been an upper middle income nation, it wouldn't even make sense. From world bank statistics, we have 23% of poverty rate as of 2022 and not under poverty or abject poverty but just poverty. The statistics on world bank comes from stats SA, keep in mind, SA measures a poor person by living below $4.8 a day while the rest of Africa uses $1.8 a day, so already even our standards to measure poverty are very high. What we usually call poverty in SA will be a low middle income in Nigeria and our stats disregard people in informal settlements while African governments consider people in informal settlement employed
Also mention that South Africa is has 4 world Cups
SA❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤uuuuuuuuuuu
Pls remember to subscribe thanks
I am a Ghanaian and I am glad to hear most South Africans do not care about being giant of Africa. SF have their own issues to deal with. I don’t think SF is even ready or Nigeria for that matter. A great leader of Africa must be smart and know what they are doing. They must not be influenced by external powers and all that so for me those to countries cannot be even though you are looking at their economy, land etc.

I agree. Libya deserved that title before it was destroyed. Probably why it was destroyed.😢
