I'll be honest as an African in the west. Most of us did not value home until we left. Media manipulation and colonial education did not teach us to value ourselves or our land. People did not want to farm they only sought white collar jobs but the world is changing and the lies are fading as the perspective shifts. We have more than we know, the grass is not greener on the other side. If we don't love our homes we will lose them. The world is definitely aware of the values of our lands.
Couldn’t have said it better. Africans are groomed and ingrained to believe that the west is better, meanwhile the West gets most of it’s natural resources from Africa, when we could be utilising those resources ourselves.
@KMcirca82; it is essentially due to the misgovernance of our politicians and their incompetence, the lack of love of our leaders for their continent, corruption and its immediate corollary which is poverty and misery
Wouldn't have said it better, l am building my land too back home in Mthwakazi, Zimbabwe. The time has come and noone will shut it down. Time for the children of the sun, the moon and the stars to Rise.
African Americans are the real deal. Lot of opportunities await, electricity, Human Resources training and education are key areas. Convergence of African Americans and Africans on the continent will create a lot of value.
If only all African Americans have this thinking like 20yrs back Africa will have been a better home,we hope those who have the opportunity like them will think so too
The part that I enjoyed most was when he said "I got water free, food free" we in Africa don't appreciate little little blessings, I am thankful Lord✌🏼😘
my friend went back to north somalia in 2009 with 10,00dollars to her name, now she owns hotels, businesses and property in many places. Me who stayed in europe living cheque to cheque.
I lived in a village some time in my life. Never realize the benefits of farming all I care was getting Food. But growing up and living in the United States, watching such video has motivated me to start something small on my 2.5 acres which is meant for my apartments in Kumasi. Currently doing Green Pepper and Cabbage, I really feel super happy because workers are been paid … also it feels happy seeing stages on the process. I urge all people to engage in such to help others get Job as well. 🇬🇭 🇺🇸
commenting from Nairobi, Kenya. perhaps the most legendary of all the repatriated AfAM familes in Africa. Man i cant get enough of them. Rick, Cynthia, Rastaman Rahim, Nadia, Rickeyta, James. Love em all, theyre soooo brave.
Black americans are so beautiful and love all of Africa moreso then the natives that are there! They have no envy, no jealousy and no tribalism like so many Africans, that do not hold their own government officials accountable!!
As an African I agree with you but remember that Africans were naturally raised not to question elders and the “culture” and system even it’s rooted in narcissism by allowing the tyrants to do as they please because they are “elders”. This creates arrogant and abusive elders in power who are so accustomed to doing as they please. However, the younger millennials and Gen Z are changing that because we grew up with social media being exposed to what racism may mean even if many have never personally experienced it because they have of staying in Africa all their lives. The brainwashing from colonisation is dying so it’s that process taking place too
Well how can they be tribal when they don't have any tribes... Mind you tribalism is not just in Africa. The Scottish Referendum for independence from the English is tribalism.... Thats why they also had fighting between England and Irish so there you go.
Africa's favorite son Wode Maya is in a league of his own . Thank you so much for your content and especially the BAG Family that are so close to my heart ❤. God Bless.
I visited Mali, Senegal, Togo, Nigeria and I never saw people dying of hunger. I have always been received with a plate of food and water, because Africans consider that you come from far away, so you haven't eaten yet. Even if you are not hungry, out of respect for the culture, you eat at least a little
@@koimt6732 But there a lot of african countries where the peoples have nutrition problems that can worse with ukrainian crisis because there high prices of food You are wrong
@@bernardosa6690 The famine is man made by America and Europe. They poison the soil so that Africans can buy from their GMO supermarkets and not eat from their own land the same way the poison is with their “medicine”. Luckily ALL Africans know how to grow their own food and are entrepreneurs so we just need to support our OWN organic markets and farmers and not support these Western corporations and it’s already happening especially with our brothers and sisters coming back home from America and Europe. They truly understand racism and the capitalist ruthless system so they will be amongst our new leaders by influencing Africans and getting rid of all the corruption and invasions form the West in Africa naturally. The time has come and I am so glad to see this still being in my 20s. Prophecy has started and Africa is the place to be rising day by day ans the FASTEST growing continent in the world. I remember when Western media would show the Middle East as a war torn desert just like they would show starving African children to take our resources and lie to the world and now everyone is obsessed with Dubai while so many are back in Africa. The Western world is falling in stages and I remember seeing people live on trees and tents in LA California something I have never seen in all African countries I have visited.
@@koimt6732 Facts. We don’t have famine and when Ethiopia had the drought the evidence pointed out to American leaders messing with the soil the same way they won’t leave Somalia alone. We are eliminating the problem of the enemies.l to our progress and it was bound to happen.
@@bernardosa6690 If they can do without bread ( which is not originally our delicacy anyway). Bread comes majorly from wheat and which is largely imported from Ukraine by most African countries. Fortunately, the land is available and fertile in Africa. They can grow wheat in the cold climate regions in the continent and we can export&import it among ourselves. Unfortunately,, our govt. are not putting effort to make agriculture attractive. However, I think the youths should not wait for their govt ( the govt. will always be fucked up anyways). Start with the God given & abundant resources Africa has which is the fertile land.
You need to interview "Diebedo Francis Kere.. "Bukina Faso Architect... check out his buildings this method could apply to the school roof you just donated to... big up my yute..... 💡🖤🇯🇲🇯🇲🇬🇭🇬🇭
To those who critisise you Maya. Most of it is driven by jealous don't take it personally. Critics will always criticise whether you are sleeping or standing. Remember critics don't have statues.
Rick and Cynthia are an awesome couple. And they make beautiful babies! Nadeya, Rahim, James, and Ricki Denise are all emotionally vested with their parents in the BAG Family enterprise. We love the BAG Family. And are expecting nothing but great things to continue for them!
I went to The Gambia for holiday last year I had a very good time can’t wait to go back there love from London 🙏

*So pround to be African* Live in Africa is so sweet and this video is amazing. Thanks Wode for this unspiring video 🔥♥️ Stay blessed. Merci pour ces partage et pour ce couple qui m’a fait kiffer. Vous êtes magnifiques 😻 Merci pour ces explications
Yankee born Afro-Bajan Daughter and double lineage both lines here. Proud of it! Gambia was the first choice then Zanzibar. Either way after going to Barbados and reconnecting with my family members known and unknown, we’re going HOME to Mama Eden. Returning The Clark(e), Holder, Straker blood back home! See you all there!!
@@briantaylor7075 THIS comment should be Pinned! Yesssss! This year for sure. I keep seeing the gates closing again after December. Never been wrong with the dreams so I’m listening. I truly pray you’re able to at least do a few months due diligence then find YOUR souls happy place and settle then GROW!!! Amen. ASÉ!
Here in Massachusetts, you can't even fetch rainwater. It against the federal law. I haven't seen ball hole well before until I came to Ghana, That's why I'm also building in Ghana. I've my bore hole, free water, free rain water because almighty God has already given all to us for free. LONG LIVE MAMA AFRICA 🌍
@Caribbeañ In The House FBA vs ADOS...I'm so sick of hearing about this. It doesn't matter how we see ourselves. In white America, we're all a bunch of n******!!
@Caribbeañ In The House nothing wrong with claiming their identity but Tariq is just causing a lot of beef between Africans and AAs I thought they were fighting for reparations but they too busy fighting other Africans
I really appreciate this video my wife and I desire to move back home to the continent where we were stolen from and we would really like to be around the wonderful people we seen in this video .and we really would like to become great farmers🚜🚜
This brother is speaking the truth about America, USA in justice system towards Black, Hispanic in the United States of America. Get your passports. Get dual citizenship. Give yourselves options.
@@kvm1992 The Trump era presidency. Exposed the deep entrench corruption in the system. That guy lies daily on videos and audio. His party refused to impeached him. He committed criminal acts before running. But the system refused to prosecute him. Systemic racism. New York City is willing to prosecute him. He committed similar crimes in the state of Florida they let him go they did not look back. America is a failed moral and slowly but surely. The entrenched corruption by lobbyists into the political system. Created a system of failure and systematic economic racism. Jim Crow is still in the system. For hiring and taxes. Republicans will sacrifice their own staying power. And blame blacks and Latinos for everything.
@@kvm1992 if the US system towards Blacks couldn't change in 400 years, I wonder when it will change. If you feel unsecure, just pack and leave, the system isn't changing
@@jeffchetambe6282 The one thing that everyone needs to do be before finalizing theirs journey overseas is to develop recurring incomes from real estate properties, stock market trading and retirement accounts.
Exposure is the key. We often do not appreciate what we have until we travel out of our comfort zones. We Africans in the diaspora now appreciate what we have once we left and travel to other parts of the world.
From one African Organic Farmer to another, BIG Shout Out to the 'Black Acres Of The Gambia' from 'BackToNature Organic Farms'! Farmers will be the African Billionaires of the future & so every Farmer featured on this channel growing Healthy Food makes us all Rich..HEALTH IS WEALTH! Keep up the good work Maya..Africa To The WORLD 🌎🌍
I love the BAG family and have been following their journey for a few years now. So proud of what they’ve achieved in The Gambia and continue to wish them every success in their endeavours. They’re inspiring and so are you Wode Maya, God bless you all 💕💕
This Is Exactly What We Afrikans Must Emulate. We Sometimes Nag & Complain. I'm Beginning to Focus My MINDSET on Solutions. I Love This Family. Slow, Steady, & Consistency Wins the Race. Afrika Shall Rise Greater Than It Was Before. The Time Is Always NOW. For Those Who Are Problem-Solvers Will Inherit Afrika. If We In The Diaspora Don't Go Back Home and Engage And Invest, We'll Be Left Out Of The New Afrika That Can Shape For the Better Opposed to The Worst.
"Sweet Juicy Mama"..☺️☺️☺️ Love it!! You can actually live off the grid in Africa. Africans don't know how blessed they are. I pray for Africa to be totally free of its colonizers and a colonized mindset.
Thanks Maya for influencing most of us to embrace our heritage and want to develop our own continent. You're doing great things and I wish you more goodness.💎
Beautiful! I love B.A.G. and Wode Maya. Thank you for sharing this. I'm living in Senegal and can soooooooo relate!!! Definitely my biggest frustration here is the same as theirs, the workers - getting them to consistently show up for work, quality of work and getting them to complete the work. 🙄 I'm starting small but ya'll are inspiring me to think bigger.
Well done my fanty brother go higher maya, we dey your back with prayers bro. That's what we can do to help your journey on this earth. Always watching you from Qatar bro
We're very thankful for your work and the videos Wode Maya 🙏🏿 God bless you my brother ❤️🙌🏿 keep doing your thing, Ghana's baby, you're making a huge difference 💯👊🏿
Would love it when you visit Zimbabwe if I am in that country and take you around Zimbabwe since I have a tour company back home. Delay your Zimbabwe coming and I will plan my trip at the same time with your coming. I wish to give you the best tour of Zimbabwe.
Such a blessing to keep learning from the wonderful videos of Wode Maya. There is a strong ligament that holds us from returning to the motherland, until we break that ligament, we will continue to see the West at the best place to make it. Others are taking the leap of faith and enjoying the fruit of their labor. When you are married lol you will understand. Like sweet juicy mama said she was not in agreement at first but now she admits the truth. Tell your wife let’s move to Africa lol and hear her response.
Thank u mr woda maya …The interview with the bag family was educational Bag family is full of wisdom they give great advice for the bro and sis back in America They are a very intelligent couple I could of listen to the interview for hours ….. They had motivated me although am a senior Am thinking about visiting Africa hopefully soon by God power
I think for now, the best activity one can engage into for a good and a betterment future as far as Africa is concerned is Agriculture. Keep the good work though. #WODE MAYA
I want to be free like Mr. BAG's family. I had chills when he screamed. I understand the police brutality in the US as I've experienced one. I will be free soon, I know I will. This video is an encouragement for me.
Gambia the Smiling Coast of Africa,I really want to migrate from Ghana my home to the Gambia to try learn the culture and blend in with the pple and possibly set up some...The country look so beautiful and I choiced it because there's so much that I can relate to...If any body interested in hosting me for sometime I will be very much appreciated
He is a man on a mission I like the way he treats his woman calling her sweet mama. Born in the continent and lived in the west for many years I agree with him 100%.
I AM REALLY HAPPY JUST TO SEE HOW HAPPY THE "BAG FAMILY" FREE TO BE FREE IN AFRICA IN WHICH HE COULD DO IN AMERICA.......THANKS AGAIN FOR HIGHLIGHTING THESE STORIES MOYA...
