Gambians let’s gather here and thank wode maya 👇🇬🇲🇬🇲👇👇

I left Europe 4 years ago to come back to the motherland, I almost died of depression, sadness and frustration, until one day I said enough is enough,i didn't come to this world to just work, pay bills and die,always on survival mood that i don't have the time and energy to maximise my potential, I need a happy life,I dedicated myself into 6month of hard labour, save some cash and came back,everyone thought I was mad for leaving europe to come and settle in africa,I established a business and I now own my gym and two cosmetic shops,most of my friends I left there are congratulating me that I made the best decision, the west is just waiste of time and depression,no social interaction, no love, racism and lack of good opportunities for black people, if you want to live you must work like a slave no matter how educated or intelligent you are,better jobs are for Europeans not blacks,by the time you will realise you are now old and can't do anything for yourself,africa is the best continent to live in this world, more especially if you have content mind,and africa have everything, there is everything in this continent you will never realise until you travel to the west and come back,and if you want to come back don't look at the fancy things and don't listen to people,don't let social media fool you again,your will power is the greatest advicer it will never disappoint you,me travelling to Europe teaches me a life lesson that mental health is precious than wealth,nothing will confuse me to go Europe again..at least I fell love,affection and respect in this continent, no more,depression,no sadness, social interaction, no racism, natural foods,beautiful women and men,bro I'm living

The Longest Video I'ver ever Uploaded My Channel! Hope You Like & Share!

I think most of the things we complain about like power cut, water, trash etc… are all investment opportunities. Let’s put our money together and do something. Great content as always Wode Maya✊🏿✊🏿✊🏿✊🏿

American watching from Tanzania here. Hello everyone

A lot of respect and love for Wode Maya for making “ moving to Africa” a movement. This is from your Haitian brother.

Absolutely awesome video! Motherland Africa is calling and I’ll touch down soon ✊🏾😁🔥 l’asę edumare 🙏🏾

Wode Maya possessed the spirit of Marcus Garvey. He also looks like Garvey. We don't know where in Africa Marcus Garvey ancestors came from, but I often wonder if Wode Maya is related to Garvey. I really enjoyed the conversation with these guys from the UK.

I think it's time for the African Union and African leaders to recognize and enhance the capacity of this young man. It is abundantly clear he is having an impact in bringing business, tourism and brainpower back to the continent that they haven't been able to.

Its my Jamaican 🇯🇲🇯🇲 people representing in the motherland for me, Its a movement. They are VERY CORRECT, living in UK, America, and Canada is absolute isolation. Its work and home and thats it. You get depressed real quick.

Africa to the world, they are definitely making an impact in the motherland and helping improve the economy in Africa 🤗❤️

Hello my brothas n sistas! This is my top favorite channel! I want to move to Africa sooooooo bad. I’m born n raised is California and people it’s not what you think. Just craziness everywhere. People are mean, greedy, shady, and so much drama! Can’t even get a business started on the low. So definitely I’m bringing money and knowledge to Africa!!!

Dude" you're doing really a great job in Africa.!!🥰🥰 L.o.v.e from the Gambia🇬🇲🇬🇲 to whoever is reading this Comment.👏👍 ++ I hope you all have a great rest of your Evening.!!💪💪

The Gambia is a nice country ..thx wode from Ethiopia

I‘m in my early 30s and I traveled from Ghana to Europe to seek for a greener pasture but i found out later there are countless opportunities back in Africa. The goal now is to get some capital, move back to Ghana and invest when i’m in my 40s. I pray for God‘s favor so my decisions will be fulfilled and that’s why am stuck with Maya’s content because what it gives is more than a life time experience. With this, I can always plan accordingly and execute my mission successfully when the time is right. Africa is the future !!!

Proud Gambian here! Living the the US looking to do big developments in The Gambia

OMG i want to live in Africa so much ,my big son love’s it

I'm so ready to get out of this rat race in the states and move to Africa. Thanks to people like Wode Maya for showing us how we've been lied to about Africa.

Bro I appreciate your show. what these Jamaican are saying is so true I'm Jamaican I love my country but am loving Africa. 😍

Your Ancestors will be very happy in the beyond for this deep conversation/ meeting. I can hear them saying finally our children and great great grand children are finally back home from where we were stolen. Great Energy pulling them back home. Thank God.!!! Stay blessed Maya. 🥰

I live in UK and everything they are saying is absolutely true and honestly I have already started the process of moving back to the continent.

Jamaican Sister 🇯🇲 giving us some vibes " you don't see how young I look?" 😃😃😃😂😂😂🤣🤣🤣🤭🤭🤗🤗🤗🤎🤎🇬🇲🇬🇲🇬🇲🇬🇲🇬🇲

I'm going to get myself a parnter and relocate to Gambia 🇬🇲. Fell in love with this country from my forst visit in 2008. Spent three years in Lagos. Beautiful experience but not quite what I'm looking for. Thabks for sharing this Gem, Wode ❤️

I feel very lonely here in the west 39 years and I count my friends on one hand. One of my friends are returning to South Africa to live, at the end of the month.

The best way to relocate to Africa and live comfortably, you should have your house and your business.

Africa to the world,keep on with the good work

As a Nigerian that lived in the UK for only 2yrs, within the first 6months of stay, i was able to learn/develope the British accent. Now, I've lived in the USA for more than 5years, I still speak English in my Nigerian accent, in fact, am learning how to speak English in a different way,, OH, UK!!! How i missed thy!!! I love each and everyone of you guys. Hope you get your heart desires and please be safe in Africa (the Gambia). One day soon, i shall make a return back home.

Thank God for Wode Maya, showing the positive side of Africa to the world... What our leaders couldn't do... Africa to the world ❤️ 🌍

The funny part is that , most of the worries our returning brothers and sisters are facing is the same worries we born and raised in Africa who later travelled abroad still face when we return home. What I am trying to say is that it cuts across but overtime everyone realizes that there is no place like Africa. I am more relaxed, happy and mentally sound whenever i am in Nigeria. Good job as always Wode Maya … one love and peace

Crime is a problem in this world today. People are caught up wanting and don't want to work. I love my country with every core of my being JAMAICA. Where I'm living my second home CANADA there is crime daily. People need to have LOVE and we'll have a better world. Justice truth be ours forever 🇯🇲 land I love.

Moving to Africa is now a movement. Thanks to you.

What a great video I really enjoyed this type of interview, well worth the hour! I’ve felt the PULL to move to the motherland, I’m just fed up with life in the west, it’s just getting worse with the RACISM, MICRO AGGRESSIONS, BILLS, WORK etc. there was a recent report from the BBC that said black children are punished more SEVERELY compared to their white counterparts, we just can’t catch a break ! The west really is depressing and soul destroying. When I was in Africa I was at PEACE, there was a Vibrancy and COMMUNITY there. There is no work life balance here, we are just barely surviving. I’m tired and ready to repatriate.

Protect Wode Maya at all costs!!!!

Thanks a lot Wode for shedding light on our beautiful continent

The good Lord is calling the children of Africa to come home. There cannot be any other reason for this spontaneous movement, no one need convincing, the spiritual calling is the movement. Inspirational live stories. The Wode Maya Exodus.

This round-table format is great please do more of it in different countries.

my first job right out of high school in Banjul was a language & cross cultural instructor for the Peace Corps in Gambia & eventually ended up working for Peace Corps Senegal ( as well as VSO ,British Volunteer Services Overseas & Foreign Diplomats ….just to be fair ) until I immigrated to the US in July 1990. I have spent enough time with diaspora volunteers & caucasian volunteers to say 75% of them do not want to return back to the US.

In the past, I imagine Africa has a very hot weather, famine, drought...... Why Western media had paint Africa with lots of negative pictures? Thank you Mr Wade Maya for promoting Africa to the world!

The older gent was so spot on when he said "There is more to it than any of us can tell, there is a vibration." Africa is the hub of all things...let's not be mistaken!

Just to let you know WODE MAYA that you have inspired me to return to my home country from UK to Zambia, a place called Kapiri Mposhi. Iam joining the band wagon as an Amassador to help inspire and encourage the doubting Thomases to return home Africa. I leave for zambia this month may 2022.

Wode Maya, I went to Ghana, Togo, and Benin because of you. I can’t wait to go back and establish business.

Africa To The World ✊🏾

Great Interviews-Awesome Video! I vote for Wode Maya to get a (large) salary from the Tourism Dept as he is instrumental in promoting African Excellence!

I’m loving this chat lounge episode today. As a diaspora now living with my wife and kids and doing business in The Gambia🇬🇲 I can totally relate to some of the points being raised. Gambia 🇬🇲 is indeed a home for anyone who has value to add to the national development agenda. Thank you Wode Maya (aka, Moses😍😂)

This is why Black owned Media Matters. We get to tell our own stories from our perspective. Great job Wode Maya.

Here in America if you knock on someone’s door and you are black you run a chance of being shot and killed. It is a serious psychic trauma that is put upon us here in America

I told you Wode Maya, you are going to run for President! Another great video, I will definitely vote for you Wode Maya, I’m coming home to Ghana soon!❤️🙏🏽🙌🏽🇬🇭

This was so inspirational that it brought tears to my eyes. BLACK EXCELLENCE! 💪🏿💪🏿💪🏿💪🏿💪🏿💪🏿💪🏿💪🏿 So pleased to have you pumping out these videos again! 🇬🇭 🙌🏿

The Gambian husband of the restaurant owner has a great deal of resemblance with Reggae legends...Alton Ellis and Leroy Sibbles (The Heptones) Jamaica is Africa...Jamaicans are Africans. Ride On To Success....Right on!!!

Wode Maya, keep it up. You are definitely making our continent great by selling the idea of Africans in diaspora to come back home and invest to the development of the continent. Am a Gambian 🇬🇲 and I love my country and continent in great

Moving to Africa is now a movement!!

Strong up WODE MAYA, U did not started this move, but the baton was there and u got a hold on it and never let go, And or now doing a great job to have our people return to Africa, which is second to none, u gone a lead by far, The sad part of this whole journey is most of the African Leaders do not provide that welcoming platform to encourage the returning journey, The slave masters and colonizers, the same people that implemented the Visa, enjoy a smoother and welcoming path, [ VISA OR NOT ] While we the Black race and Africans was drag off our continent and comfort zone in shackle and chains without a [ VISA ] and all our values left behind, Now we're returning as strangers and need There implemented [ VISA ] without any kind of residency and the road to be a citizen a long and rough one, when all we're doing is to coming back to our roots and safe haven, What a damn shame, [ THE SELF HATE IS ALIVE AND OR DOING WILL IN KEEPING US US DISUNITED ] Stay strong up King

I say this to all, the first country in Africa to offer Diaspora citizenship on arrival will become the most developed on the continent. The desire for home is strong and we need to feel fully accepted! Make it happen Gambia there is strong love for the Family, just make it mutual!

Maya, you raised a very important topic, as a person from the diaspora who would love to visit, have heard many stories about people who are using their position of info, as a business and to scam the diaspora… I’m very familiar with that, living in the USA, but coming from a small popular vacation spot, and now people fleeing from US to my country… as a local, also a missionary to my country, I travel back and forth. I have introduce many American people to friends and influential people, to find places to live etc. give them business opportunities, because I want to help, and for them to have a good experience in my country, for free! Not all the people have been in good standing, I have had negative reports from locals of these people leaving without paying their rent, not paying radio stations bills, pastors helping but get negative result from these pastors, basically taking advantage of these locals, but I’m like you, people are going to be who they are, it won’t stop me from helping where I can… Today people don’t seem to want to do anything for free. We are dealing with a different mindset and a generation like no other, they don’t seem to understand that’s what we are all about, extending a hand to help each other, especially in a foreign land. Money is a source, but a true friend will last… smh🧓🏾💕🙏🏽

Words Maya is a different "breed" . Born in the Central region of Ghana, and had lived a little bit in Nigeria, and fortunate enough to never had been to any toxic European nation such as UK, US & Frame, but rather lucky enough to have lived in Nigeria and China had made this young man a different human not too common in Ghana. Being lived in Nigeria and China had prepared Maya to fit into any society and build bridges.

They don't know better , in Britain in the 70s Britain had a lot of power cuts, and they started teaching us to switch off the electricity when finish using it

This is such an inspiring story. Thanks for all the positivity. 👍🏾

Thank You Wode Maya💪🏾. Africa stands with you for a job well done. Am in love with my continent more than ever before

I think some Africans would rather be depressed and be on medication than have a few power cuts here and there. We don't have to be on the internet every second. Power goes off and that's a time to actually mingle with people and have good conversations. People here are all about small talk because they don't know how to have conversations anymore. Conversationa have turned into likes on Socio.

BRILLIANT. Wode Maya. You have done it again my brother. My eldest brother now lives in Brufut Heights in Gambia. Very nice place inhabited by mostly Ex Pat's. Especially from the UK. He has been living there since 2018. I visit him quite often. Now my brother is a straight talking individual. And his advice to those in the Diaspora looking to come to Gambia is this. First do your due diligence, and please research any individual or company selling land or houses. And do not trust anyone, even if they come from the UK or elsewhere. And lastly do not tell anyone your business.

Watching your video from Philadelphia USA

Our one and only Wode Maya please keep revealing the secret that was intentionally hidden. For me wo as ‘Omo 9ja pikin, I appreciate your work. Positive all the way!!!

WODE MAYA, Right now am watching this video and my head is swelling much with pride, Am blowing away, And this had been happening again and again, mainly because of your inspiration in getting my people back to the African continent, Long life King with good health and prosperity, wow

@wodemaya to boost Africa economy and to attract more diaspora to move to Africa first we have to make sure 80% of what we use is from Africa - Eg. Building material, Fuel , Agro input (Fertilizer ,Agrochemical, seeds, Machinery) , Medicine all expensive things..

This is SO Powerful!!! Awesome conversation, learning points --- well done!

Wode Maya you're extremely incredible, I was shocked when i saw the video tittle because i am Gambian. It says "we regret moving to The Gambia from The UK" so i wondering what happened to this people because i know how cool Gambia is. So if i see someone saying i regret going to Gambia i will be so curious to know the region. I watch this video with an intention to rectify the bad experience they had but unfortunately the video was so positive. You are a greet RU-vidr and please keep it up brother.

You are doing a great job Buddy 👍👍🙂

Watching from Nairobi 🇰🇪

Thanks Wode Maya all the episodes you did in our Gambia are so beautiful and inspiring 🇬🇲🇬🇲

AFRICA TO THE WORLD

There's a natural mystic blowing through the air, if you listen carfully now, you will hear. African the time has come 😢🙏🙏🙏

Seeing my people go back home and feel at home really makes my heart burst with joy. Please, keep coming home, home is big enough for all of us and downed in true true love you'll find nowhere else ❤ Let's keep retelling our stories. #WelcomeHome

Wode Maya blessed love! Giving thanks for your work brother! Speaking here from 🇱🇨🇱🇨🇱🇨🇱🇨, really love the Gambia, big up Alieu and the coconut project on the Gambia beach

You got to watch the whole 1 hour, 2 minutes and 8 seconds of this video to enjoy the vibe of the diaspora return to The Gambia 🇬🇲. The journey won’t be that easy but the experience is definitely going to be enriching to the body, mind and soul.

This was a beautiful piece on the Gambia and all the opportunities that are "Ripe for the picking" I am so proud of this group of people who are affecting change in this beautiful country. Also, I loved how the comparison was made between the West and Africa, of course we enjoy the amenities that are available in the West. The up side of living in Africa is by far a better quality of life eventhough, you may not have electricity and internet service 100% of the time.

I thought I will be the 1st to comment. Lmao 🤣 there were people waiting for Wode Maya’s notifications. One love Africa. Greetings from a Gambian 🇬🇲

Wow this is a beautiful movement👌👌👌indeed creating wealth in Africa and doing it right too.

Very inspiring, educative, informative and really enjoyable. God bless you all for such a powerful programme. BLACK POWER ALL THE WAY! MAMA AFRICA ALL THE WAY!!!!❤❤❤

Bro, this was a very important discussion. These diasporas have very keen insights to help others contemplating repatriation to Mama Africa. Thank you Maya, for producing this vlog!

I really loved this interview! I can’t wait to come back to the motherland in a few years!

A wealth of experience and wise words from this group. I enjoyed the dynamic discussion. Thanks Wode Maya and rest of the people in this video.

Wode Maya for president 🙌 ❤️ 👏 💙 ♥️ 💕 everyone I was watching with agreed and cheered!!!!

I live in the U.S and planning my return. Mine is different because right from the onset I made up my mind to return. Mutabaruka once sang a song and said it is not good to stay in a white man’s country so long. To prepare for my return, I am currently setting up a vegetable oil industry, I have got a 70 (700 plots) hectares farm and planning the third business, real estates. I got a very shot time to sort things out and runnnnnnnn outta here back to Naija. Wide Maya, I need to speak with you man

My late Dad did it, moved back to Nigeria in the 80s and fulfilled his dream of living life out there. I’m planning on doing the same. The challenges are temporary and can be managed (light, food,water etc). I experienced it growing up when my parents took us back. Once you understand the system back home, you’re good. Wishing them all the best and thank you Wode Maya for all you do. Africa is beautiful even with its challenges, where isn’t? No where be like Africa, no where be like home 😁 plan, plan & plan

I'm so spiritually connected to Africa that watching some of these videos gets me so emotional at times

African to the world keep doing your thing . Mr MAYA thanks for sharing another.

Wode maya you are doing the lord’s work

The best RU-vidr in west Africa much love

Wode. Maya looks like Marcus Garvey.

Extremely informative. thank you everyone. Yes Africans can develop Africa. Let's change our mindsets. Watching from Zimbabwe.

Next time I would like to meet you Wode maya because I have a powerful message to our brothers in Europe and the USA, am very grateful seeing them talking about Africa especially the Gambia 🇬🇲

Keep doing you Maya, I truly appreciate your passion for what you do and how you push through despite the struggles associated with being a youtuber.

You never disappoint. But seriously our African leaders need to help make life comfortable for these diaporans. The economic impact is great venture plus they become ambassadors of change.

We are coming home.

Am I the only one that notice that Wode Maya resembles The Right Honorable Marcus Mosiah Garvey? Surprisingly he is performing a similar work of highlighting Africa and for the diaspora to move back to the continent. I believe this is not a coincidence.

Africa is good when it comes to business. Small capital needed, a bunch of employees, etc. You're business will easily boom if you can get sales in the West.

Men, you are a hero , you are doing great to our to Africa🌍 and the whole world

Yes home is calling, some of you please to my country Lesotho, we ready for you. We want to help too.

Always the village boy doing good for all of us, fantastic contents and keep on keeping on Wide Maya.
