NO TO XENOPHOBIC TENDENCIES!!

A lot of people migrate to other places for so many reasons, this has brought growth, development, awareness, exchange of culture and also sharing of knowledge. No tribe, culture, or country should claim to know it all. It is important we see good in other people, so that we will have an open mind towards learning something different. We should not be afraid of the next person because no one can do more than what God allowed him or her to do.
This brings me to the Xenophobic attack in South Africa. I looked  up xenophobia in the Dictionary,and it is defined as dislike of or prejudice against people from other countries. My question is this, a country like South Africa that has different races living together and has immersed so much wealth, growth and development as a result of this, suddenly woke up to dislike people from other countries. I see it as trying to destroy what one has spent years building.  If this is Political, it should stop now because a lot will go wrong. Today it is Africans, tomorrow it may be Asians, then to other continents. If Investors see a particular area as being always in chaos, they will not invest, people with a wealth of knowledge will not come to  such area. So you are not only losing money, you are also loosing manpower and knowledge. To South Africans, face your fears and do not destroy this country that intelligent and wise people fought so hard to build. Also you have committed an injustice to Nigerian's and other African countries, you have killed, and destabilized because you dislike them.
PLEASE SAY NO TO ANY XENOPHOBIC TENDENCIES
