Jah bless and guide, keep up the good work.you are the modern day Garvey. U look like him.remember in one of his speech, he said he would return, to help his people.

That great

Sierra Leone🇸🇱 Jamaica🇯🇲 We're all family. I'm a Sierra Leoneon

Wow nice, it’s same experience between Haiti and Mauritius creole

The BRIDGE 54 we are one pple

We have a lot in common with the way Jamaicans do things. Most of the foods we commonly eat stem from that side of the world. Also, the love that we have for reggae music, if it's not the strongest, then it is one of the strongest on the continent. Whenever I'm around Jamaica people I automatically reminisce of being around my people.

Chernor Unisa a wanna friend from sierra Leone

Well said

Tabom people are assimilated into the Ga culture of Accra

Good to read this amazing history of freedom town

Clement Ayimbila and before the Ga came to Ghana they are said to have lived amongst the Yoruba in Ile ife so it’s kind of a reunification of you think about it.

Great

Asante A, your account is not totally correct. The Jamaican maroons who fought the British in Jamaica and freed many of their slaves, were tricked into signing a peace treaty and made prisoners in Jamaica, then sent to the USA by the British to fight to fight in US revolution war against those fighting in the US for independence from England. Many blacks in the US joined the British forces who promised to abolish slavery if they win. But when the british lost the war with the Jamaicans and blacks from America fighting on their side, they took all the blacks either from Jamaica or from the USA to Canada with them and settled them in Nova Scotia. Then took all of them to England and settled them in London. But majority of them remained jobless and subjected to extreme poverty and ended up sleeping on the streets of London. That is when a plan was made to resettle them to Sierra Leone. They were no distinction made between the blacks of America or of Jamaica. All were sent to London then Freetown later. And captives freed from slaveboats were resettled among the Americos of Liberia and also among the Krio of Sierra Leone. Many resettled in Liberia were freed from ships originating from the Congo area. Reason why the term Congo is used in reference to the Americos of Liberia. In the case of Sierra Leone, seems like many of the ships that were captured had many Yoruba captives on them. Those Yorubas were resettled among the Krios. Also many Kru from Ivory Coast and Liberia were also freed from these ships. You even have a Kru community that settled in Freetown at Krutown Road.

you should definitely visit, we are known for our great hospitality.

Amber Taylor-Greenhouse that guest is my former professor. He is a lecturer at Fourah Bay College.

Plz do

You always welcome to the land of the free

I'm Sierra Leoneon, but I've been living with a lot of 9ja pp in Italy🇮🇹 too, we almost speak like the same broken English. 😀😃Bros hw far naa, u weldone Ooo 🇸🇱✊🇳🇬💪

ME-STAR NONI They learnt pidgin from Nigeria esp during the war from ECOMOG soldiers

Fool the krio people were freed slaves from Europe and the language they spoke is pidgin(Broken English). They didn't learn the language from ECOMOG soldiers fn knobhead.

@@sowosman6446 As senegalese I can tell you that you have also lot of relatives in our country with same name

@@mohamed69khalifa73 the pidigin they speak is quite very different from the one spoken in nigeria... it modification came when ECOMOG was sent to sierra leone,

Lol you couldn’t even take your time to spell his name right. Wado Mayo? Come on Rebecca.

I was told Sierra Leone and Liberia are where Marcus Garvey dropped off the repatriats

Rebecca McIntosh probably very true to throw people away whilst they raping the country

The country Sierra Leone is a treat to the western world.Sierra leone as it's own unique value and the people are warmly welcoming foreigners in the country

My question is why watch and promote them and their hateful narrative?

I do follow both Drew Binsky and Wode Maya but unfortunately Drew(White traveler) had a really bad experience entering SL by health officials at the border ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-U0hNtt_Fj_E.html which he reported thru this video and with the power of Social Media the SL gov’t officials hastily addressed the issues and those involved were arrested which is the power of Social Media. The white travelers wasn’t being so negative cuz they are more or like pushing the same agenda by promoting the continent thru travels as Wode Maya

@@ReinaAfricana they can bring ad many diseases they want, they will never succeed. We have to stop being scared of those people and their propaganda.

@@officerricky5065 I watched the video before and can confirm that Drew's wasn't giving negative review about the country. He just had bad experience at the border.

❤️

Emma you welcome..Once you are in Freetown no Immigration will disturb you for residence permit, hence the name Freetown. You are free😂😂😂🤣❤

Bless up bro

You’re always welcome Dear.

​@@daudaconteh7144 As a Krio born in freetown I have to say u're correct, hence the name Freetown 😂😂😭😭😭🤣🤣😁😄

hi

from Belguim

Sierra Leone A country of rocks, hill, seas, and rivers

Beautiful country My dear .you will never regret going there .

Tufa u welcome dearly

Welcome at any time.

Wi dae na ya :)

Sierra Leone got Ebola?? Then guys must be careful

Roba what the hell are u talking about

@@robaeli854 english in the present tense and past tense.The statement said sierraleone had ebola in the past,does'nt it now it not there anymore

Roba shut your face, you are an IDIOTIC IMBECILE. Are you just ignorant or you just don’t know what is currently going on in the world. Sierra Leone 🇸🇱 is free from that man made disease called Ebola, which was created by the west to eradicate the black population. If you don’t have anything positive to say about Sierra Leone 🇸🇱 please try to know what is the current state affairs of the world or simply shut up 🤐 and stop making comments on a topic that you have no idea on.

@@Rasforay well said

A town of freed slaves created by the british,got independence from England in 1961

You are right

@@amaradumbuya2099 please , the Krios make up 2% of the population.

They are like Nigerians bro.. You hardly differentiate us o.. Untill they speak

Yes we do ,love that

@@gabbykeys1399 That's true BRO Emma. People think I am Nigerian until I speak the krio pidgin

Our advantage is that we can easily speak Nigerian pidgin while it's difficult for Nigerians to speak our Krio. Nigeria and Sierra Leone to me are just the same people. Nigeria is the elder brother of Sierra Leone.

I love you bro

I agree more video

Davici, you welcome

Yes,it's solemn

We Sierra Leonean always cried when we heard it if we are out of our country... The land that we love

The National Anthem is just too special to us Sierra Leonean. It brings a lot of memories. God bless Sierra Leone

It is not broken English. It is Krio.

I was staying at Goderich. Funkia

Did you enjoy the seafood, in goderich,also did you visit Aberdeen and lumley beach

@@amaradumbuya2099 I did paa hope u no that there are A lot of Ghanaians at that side. N they are seamen. Ur name looks familiar

Akousua I agree with you I'm Nigerian living in Freetown the first time I came to sierra Leone saw their masquerade they call it OJEH i thougt they were yorubas living in sierra Leone.. Though they have Igbo town and calabar town but their are few krio who still have igbo name most of them have Yoruba name

@@donflex5669 Yes ooo bro they are really friendly I enjoyed staying there paa

More videos coming up from freetown

@@WODEMAYA Looking forward to it. Thanks a heap!

You are so 👉 right Wodamaya will listen to us for a long version of your great video.

Yes it happened to most African countries, just that theirs came from Europe n Liberians came from America. Hmmm,our history is deep👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾

U welcome to my country

yes my country is amazing

You’re welcome at any time.

You are my ghost

Really

Sierra Leoneans are very welcoming.

Media won't show this. Media only talks about Ebola, diseases lol

You welcome

It's even more similar to Gullah/Geechee

Me did think the same thing

Welcome home brother

I was. It's so solemn. Felt goosebumps

🖐🖐🖐

That's interesting to know

Me too

So your first name is a sentence.? What about the second one..🤗

@@kiwishbj1 the second one is a statement, or what else do you expect?😏

Bjay Guy you are funny. Lol. Most Nigerian names are sentences, some are paragraphs sef..

You're perfectly correct that church is the maroons church was built in 1808

@@yapoedwardmansaray6177 thank you for the information Kanu, would like to know more about it.. One ❤

Your welcome

That's right. It's the maroons church

Me also ,but some videos are naive ,cus they represent only the good sides of africa ,like that one for nigeria ,everywhere has good and bad places ,but u cant adore some place and to pretend the othe rpart doesnt exist

Believe you gonna meet him seriously 🙏🙏🙏

I will surely meet you bro

@@Noname-ni8qm he is showing the positive side because the western media already does good work showing the bad, this is why all around the world most people are shocked to see there are actually beautiful countries in Africa.

@Emile PAM that's how the enemies of Africa are, they don't want people to see positive things about Africa, became they want people to believed their false narrative of Africa.

Awwwwwwww!

@Audrey Axelle Loties yes he really inspired me a lot 🇬🇭

You welcome

That's right

Yoroba people are part of Sierra Leone, but they're not all related to krios. I am Krio and I don't have any Yuroba relatives.

@Jasmine-mj4kf Go back home and check the history of the Krios. Perhaps your definition of Krios is people indigenous to Sierra leone. In that case ,you are right. Yoruba are not indigenous to Sierra leone.

@@genuinediasporan6661 I never said Krios are indigenous to Sierra Leone lololol I am Krio I know about my history and language so you can't tell me anything I can tell you plenty. The Yoroba have always lived in freetown, we all know the origins of the Yoroba. however people travel and they bring along thier culture and traditions. Sierra Leone is made of incredible tolerant people and Yoroba people live in different parts of Freetown. Even certain foods.......were brought by the Yoroba.....mio mio we call it oleleh Should I go on and elaborate more . Don't argue with a Krio woman about her culture. I am not saying Yoroba are krios......I am just telling you that different people take different parts of each other cultures. We are all one big African family. Please no more from you The END!

@Jasmine-mj4kf Oleleh is another name for Moimoi, and both words are Yoruba. Creole people, who are also referred to as (Krio: Krio people), are the descendants of African-Americans, Jamaican Maroons, and 'Liberated Africans' who settled in Freetown between 1787 and around 1885. The point is Whether you are Yoruba or any liberated Africans,not indigenous to the land in Sierra leone or Diaspora Africans brought to Sierra leone by the British from Novia Scotia or England, are all krios Telling me to stop while you are replying to my 'comment' is kindergarten behaviour. And what makes you think I am not Krio anyway? Knowledge has nothing to do with nationality or place of origin.

Don Darko , some of the Maroons from Jamaica were also part of the freed slaves that were sent back to Sierra Leone, we use the same swear words like Jamaicans.

@@kolenten that's true. Would to visit the Caribbean island one day
