South Africans attacking Nigerians while making billion of dollars from us. MTN has 58m subscribers in NGR with just 31m in SA. Nigeria leads Africa with 40% of DSTV's 11m subscribers.
Imagine a NGN company in SA with such growth, not possible they'd burn it down.#Xenophobia

I'm deeply horrified by #xenophobia attacks on Nigerians in South Africa.
We helped you during apartheid. We are the largest customers of your companies (MTN, DSTV, shoprite etc), yet you murder Nigerians, burn and loot their shops for no just cause ??.
