It's hurtful to all of us that this happened to this beautiful sister. As a people, we are accepting of non-blacks buying land in Africa. However, we hurt those who look like us as to take out our frustrations of circumstances on our own...while non-blacks continue to buy land and prosper!!
That is the narrative you have decided to run with. That doesn't mean it has anything to do with reality. From what you can clearly hear from the video they make no distinctions between "non-blacks" as you put it and people you perceive "look like us"
@@lhoward9597 So much white and Asian worship by Africans and African Americans!!! We need to realize they are not superior to us. These other races are still trying to re-colonize Africa. Don't trust them. They only pretend to come in peace.
Basically if your a foreigner your considered White, alot of the people dont accept you as the same because your not from the country, but they will call you brother and sister in a minute tho
American black people are just that ,American. With our own culture and ways of doing things. Stop looking for yourselves in other countries who don’t have that same culture or ways. They don’t see US as one of them.
@erinlevere6881 you don't know or accept your own history. "They" dont have to like us, we are who we are regardless. ALL Africoid people in America are Afrikan. It doesn't Matter if your one of the very few left from BEFORE slavery or the VAST MAJORITY who are here as a result of slavery. We are Afrikan peoples. Accept it or go join the europeans and latinos. FYI the asiatic native Americans didn't stand with you when they got their reparations because they don't like you either. Cowardly female. Accept your history.

Well as a black person living in senegal and well integrated i would advise the following. First learn at least 1 local language. Wear modest clothing even for bathing in the see. Test people. Be very clear with your boundaries. Be friendly and joke with everyone. Never go around with expensive things like car clothes or accesories. Be very Respectful towards elders even when they are wrong. Be willin to learn other ways of thinking. Enjoy life. It can be great. I have no regrets
@@ousmangisseh8492It’s not lies it’s facts we never deny things that happened in America but yet these African American women are dying there because of where they come from what I can’t is when facts are proven Responsibly and Accountability is Never Taken,But yet whites can come too the continent and not be killed nor taken advantage of but worshipped explain that Again Stop Denying the truth Anytime An African American comes to the continent we come never wanting anything but to be accepted Truly it’s a self check that needs to be made
Listen if I have to live some place that restricts my natural ways of doing things that I have here in the United States how do feel I connected there ?
Every crime in Africa is committed by Nigerias. You guys should stop tagging Nigerians negatively. I know my people very well a Nigerian person can never commit such crime . I hardly hear in the news that a foreigner was killed in Nigerians, we respect foreigners more than our own people. I was surprised to hear this guy mention Nigeria. You guys should respect us, not all crime’s are being committed by Nigerians in Africa.
I'm sad what happened to the sister..but how dare people use their loose lips and say Nigerians are committing all these crimes The killer was from seirra Leone and a lot of them is there..do are Liberians nigerians Senegalese and much more..don't you see the police pulling everyone up ! Stop blaming Nigerians they not petty and evil as such..stop chat what you don't know.
Why do they always want to go build a house out of nowhere. At least, stay in the city. You are a single woman, you come from out of nowhere, build this big compound among of a bunch poor people, they know you came from UK and have lot of pounds (money), you put your life in danger. I would rather live in a studio in a rich neighborhood than live in a mansion in a poor neighborhood. I don't want to stand out. I don't want to be the Queen of the neighborhood.
You cannot come to a country and care about only victims from overseas, during the sad killing of this lady several other Gambian ladies were killed, a old lady was killed by arm robbers, a lady working at a western union place was killed broad day light, a lady was killed by a tailor after been rapped and the list goes on, The fact is crime rate has increased in Gambia unfortunately and most of the criminals came from overseas.
Your understanding is wrong, sorry to break your bubble. Kids use the term toubab for anyone foreign and potentially rich. A Gambian who lives abroad and come back speaking differently might be called exactly the same way.
@@furqaanali8908 The term could literally be translated as "civilized" so I don't understand what kind of weed you have being smoking. Even a wealthy Gambian is sometimes called toubab. When you come here, you have to change your way of thinking -- this is not the racist country your are used to.
This is what happens when you freely open the borders to other African countries without proper checks. Our onetime peaceful country is beginning to experience a lot of crime that is very foreign to the average Gambian. Only a foreigner can do such a terrible thing. R.I.P
@lylm4147 The crimes in SA are due to segregation, apartheid, and poverty. It's not the foreigners from Zim or Nigeria doing the arm robberies, sorry. I've lived in Capetown for a year and I wouldn't dare go out after 5pm in that city.
@@kittycat4828 c’mon your this comment is disappointing while we are calling for border less Africa you are here talking the opposite. Look crime happens everywhere even Gambians got unalived here by fellow Gambians
This has nothing to do with her being a non Gambian or owning a land here, if you are familiar with Gambia recently you will learn that crimes are increasing especially rubbery and theft, even Gambians have been unalived here in rubbery process so I feel bad when seeing the comments linking this to racism. And for toubab even some Gambians are called toubab that’s not base on racism. Ask some foreigners who lived here for long
Hi I'm in the beginning of the video listening to the question why u called toubab. I think they call people how look "western " toubab. Not about the colour of ur skin. They see how is from abrout. Greetings blessings 🙏
8:15..........What "look for good friend to guide you". Guide what? More like a local getting ready to rip off the foreigner/the outsider (lol). These guys in the vid are giving false information.
You need to understand that when you decide to move to another country regardless of whether you are coloured or white, you have to respect the customs and culture of that country. That includes dressing modestly and following certain protocols. This in my opinion helps you integrate better in your new environment and makes it easier to be accepted by the locals. Also, take note that the Gambia is a very peaceful country that welcomes foreigners from different countries. Unfortunately, some of these foreigners come with their ways. We as Gambians are struggling with the reality that our country is no longer as safe as it used to be. However, I can assure you that you will be safer here than a lot of places, including the United States. I am saying this from experience as I have travelled to many parts of the world as a solo traveller.
I hope you are telling this to all the loosely dressed white women..and from what I see there, majority of the young girls and women dress well loose and no ones talking about that..also when I'm shopping all around gambia, most female clothes displsyed are so exotic and revealing, even in the west I don't see those type of body revealing clothes so commonly on sale..if a woman from the west want those type of skimpy clothes they have to dig down the place...lol.. Gambia is kind of free for all..behind the mask of Islam bare freaky ish going on.
@@ramousu1Africans for Africans. America for Americans. Can’t trust it! Blk Americans will always be targets in Africa!!! Leave those ppl alone where they are at!!! 🤷🏽♂️
Gambia is safe if you don't fall into the hands of the wrong people. Every country has bad people. So when you come to The Gambia, you gotta know whom to deal with. Deal with people who are native Gambians and who dress decently and is highly educated and has a decent government job. And as a single woman and a wealthy foreigner, don't be alone, especially at night or at dangerous places. Criminals like to target people who come from Europe or America, and don't know anybody, especially women.
You sound very different, if it did not say The HappyCompanion I would not know it was you. I was also referred to as “white woman”in Ghana, it’s not your color it’s where you come from…
He said it’s safe but it happened because she had no security. She had a huge brick wall, barb wire, glass, locks that’s seems like enough. Maybe it’s not always safe or it’s not safe for someone living alone. Or someone dealing with non Gambians. This is confusing.
@@TheHappyCompanion so it could have happened to anyone if this was her security guard. It seems like she didn’t a lot in terms of trying to secure her place and herself.
@@mohammedS47FOREVERGRATEFUL I mentioned what I heard and watched on this video, and asked for clarification. This isn’t a courtroom, I watched a RU-vid video and asked a question and for clarification. I’m not sure why this is an issue.
BELOVED, there’s no such race as “white race” the race is “caucasian.” When I was in Gambia in 2023, some of the locals called me “white” too but not to my face but to the tour guide I traveled with.😂😂😂
Rest in peace to the sister.. But this was a poor interview.. You needed to get your facts right before making this video. No one will call you a toubab bro .. smfh
@@TheHappyCompanion even local who move to the west will always avoid living alone when they go back it doesn’t matter y are male or female. Security in Africa is within community. The advise I will give to African American who intended to settle or buy property their is to befriend African who live in the west let the person guide you slowly, and move thr with him at least for a vacation. This will help you to buy in safe neighborhood, and also connect you with the local and learn how to say know to people when you see they asking for money
As a women do not live alone it is not accepted. Fula is another tribe black African I lived there for. While you do need security I lived with a tribesman amazing at first but they want to take over the whole compound. Africa is beautiful especially the music and people are great. But it is a very poor country very sad If you are not africian you are seen as an outsider.Africa is a tribal place also a Muslim country and male dominated. If you stick by those rules you will be ok and try to give something to the africian families even just a bag of rice. At night you see stars that shine like diamonds. ❤
This is very disgraceful! Gambia is a failed country, and why does someone require security personnel for protection? This is not the first time and there is no excuse for it. Is Gambia a backward nation?
I guess that's why everyone in the US and the UK, etc, are getting the Ring doorbell and other security cameras alike. In the UK, we are losing our young people on a daily basis. 😢 I even watched a young man get murdered on my ring doorbell. We are having to teach them how to stay alive. Please let us not pretend that it's all sunshine and roses in the west. A Gambian woman and her children sadly were lost here in the UK. Why was that not all over the internet. We grew up hearing how bad Africa was, poor and starving, and we are still selling that story. The US and Uk have good and bad parts, I know because I have lived right in the middle of it, from NYC, Kingston Jamaica, to Brixton and Croydon. I have lost family and friends to crime. 😢 The Gambia is not the only place, for goodness sake.
Yeah but they dont, can't, won't, dare murder no colonizers that steal their land and resources and thats why im considering being around my people cuz thats where my hurt come from
Would not even visit. Looks like lots of inconvenience. Even the guy who is giving him info looks very shady. Wouldn't want to be anywhere alone, with any of them. DON'T MOVE TO THESE COUNTRIES LADIES.
@@yassina-r6806 , omg deal with muslims only?? You must be very stupid Its better to deal with the devil than with muslims in general, special in gambia and than nigerian No way!
I was in Gambia in March with a friend who knew her personally. We went to visit her resting place. It’s very sad. The killer was someone she trusted and had been working with for a king time. She was doing a great work in Gambia, helping other people acquire land and set up home there.
With all due respect uneducated people will engage with you based their own understanding and knowledge, it’s difficult to understand why a grown educated man would look here for answers 🤔
It's so sad that this happened to our sister, may her soul rest in peace 😢. Please brother, next time interview the people who knows, this guy don't even sound like Gambia, Tubapp in the gambia means white man, and there is another saying among people, wants you travel abroad or not there are certain behavior or attitudes that people have, has nothing to do with their color they call them tubapp, not necessarily they are from the west, his answers were misrepresented.
Expired!! What kind of a word is that to describe someone's death ??? Very cold you should know better bro as a muslim too la illaah ha.... anything for views...
@accoleloc3301 RU-vid knows our sistar was raped and murdered. We the righteous Black ⚫️ Men in America 🇺🇸 should be our sisters keepers and watch over them when they go abroad.... Especially Africa 🌍.
She was killed by a worker she used for 4 years..he knew she had some money in her house, and killed for it...he was from Sierra Leone...he confessed when caught.
As a child in the 80's in Texas, a group of racist white demons surrounded our car and yelled, *_"get out of our neighborhood you Ni--ers!"_* Once you've experienced that, it'll make you desire to live with your own ppl and build something better for everyone who looks like you!
I wish you meet brother berengue omowale Forbes..he is Jamaican but he lived the rest of his retirement in the Gambia until he died peacefully with his family on his bed side.because he carefully choose the kind of people he works with.no liars or fraudsters.
