The Nepali births may have been very high but it must be said that immigration from all other groups has been quite weak in the last few years which explains the births issue. So that has to be put into perspective. My family has houses in the countryside in both North and South and it has nothing to do with Lisbon or surrounding areas really. Almost heaven.
Still, the Portuguese problem is not an immigrant problem in my view , though there are some troublesome chinese importing other Asians, yes, but the large and often not too well integrated African community. Though it is probably 50/50, and it was worse before IMO.
I live in a somewhat African populated place as well and it's extremely peaceful. I prefer Africans to the gypsies that's for sure. As for millions of them I am not completely sure...
I see Africans in North and South Margin of Tagus (Lisbon and outskirts), but if you go south you see almost zero. Interior you see literally zero, Porto? Meh. Not many. Perhaps there are half a million Africans in PT? As I said, hit and miss, many are great people, especially the older and middle aged. Some of the youths and university bourgeois are a problem however.
PS: An interesting thought, in some 2nd tier cities surrounding Lisbon there are plenty of foreigners form other European countries living. Germans, Swedes, Brits, Dutch, French, whatever. Older and richer for the most part. Fleeing diversity but having that BOOMER swagger. I wouldn't mind if they didn't have that self-righteous attitude! Vote for big govt and mass migration and THEN move to a country with low MUH DIVERSITY? Hypocritical much?

"Christian love bears evil, but it does not tolerate it. It does penance for the sins of others, but it is not broadminded about sin. Real love involves real hatred: whoever has lost the power of moral indignation and the urge to drive the sellers from temples has also lost a living, fervent love of Truth."
- Archbishop Fulton J. Sheen
