Where Did Nigeria Go Wrong ?

Nigeria – South Africa relations have gone sour as a result of the xenophobic crisis going on. Both countries are former British colonies. Both countries are members of the Commonwealth of Nations and African Union.
During the apartheid era in South Africa, Nigeria was one of the foremost supporters of Black South African liberation movements, including the African National Congress; the Nigerian government issued more than 300 passports to South Africans seeking to travel abroad.Sonny Okosun, a Nigerian musician, wrote the hit song "Fire in Soweto" in 1977 to commemorate the 1976 Soweto uprising against white-rule in South Africa.

South Africans have forgotten all the sacrifices we made for them....so sad.
