Africa: Open For Business

[CosmoShidan]

Just wait till they launch their own space program! Space stations, satellites,ships, and in the future, space colonies!

[MangOliveTree]

@CosmoShidan Nigeria already designed, constructed, & launched satellites

[CosmoShidan]

@MangOliveTree That's a start. Which other African nation has done so in the last years?

[MangOliveTree]

@CosmoShidan South Africa & Algeria, don't know how much they controlled the design, etc buy they own it

[CosmoShidan]

@CosmoShidan Sweet. Here's to progression. ;)

[dragonpat666]

AFRICAN DEFFINITELY HAS WHAT IT NEED TO RISE TO A FIRST CLASS CONTINENT! its countries success would come faster if their leaders and people figure out how to get out from under the oppressive hand of the world bank , europes and americas hidden and obvious hands in their affairs.

[DonSlipDubO55]

Im not a rich black ameriKKKan but Im a African in ameriKKKa this land don't like me and never will I never been to Africa but here I come

[imhotep1]

I am really interested in that animation group from Senegal. I would like more information.

[ariagia]

YES WE MUST ALWAYS DO IT BETTER THAN ANYONE ELSE. High standards!

[chemicalafo]

there should be no crackers in our bussinesses we should start trading with ourselves not send all our stuff to the crackas in europe and the fukin chinese

[DIJV79]

Actually right now the pressure is on by the Chinese and the Indians even the Russians, for Africa to become one country once that happens on the Continent it's a done deal Africa will rise as a world super power, I guarantee it I give it about another 20 yrs, it's amazing the investment being made in Africa right now it pretty much blew me away, pretty soon we might be able to return home.

[Immarked2]

look at the Reverne Jeremiah Wright, his clothes tell you his African is skin tell you his African but he aint claiming America cause of what the white devils doing, Jeremiah Wright, Kamua Kambon Malcolm X Lewis Farrakahn Barack Obama he knows are people are dying, there aint but 1 soultion we taking it back... cause the country built by the black man whites owes us forty million brothers and sisters slave reapportions Barack going give us ours.

[AFRICANCULTURE]

the guy at 1:15 kind of reminds me of dave chappelle. LOL! but on a serious note, GREAT VIDEO.

[DearNadia]

I love it! I am taking notes while watching this.

[goldengoodas]

This is great!

[younggenius83]

I am NOT surprised. When I graduate as an engineer, I'm going to Africa to help build solid infrastructure so the natives can compete in the global market. This gives me even more inspiration.

[geneofisis]

Bless you brother.

[thecoolconejoman]

well this video doesnt realy prove a whole lot, OF course people in other country's live beyond well. for people to be liek " omg no way " is just soo dam fucking ignorant. Anyways tho, This only represents a small portion of the population. Because its in a Main City Capitol OR just a city in general. Look everyelse. People are not like that, so dont try to make it seem like its all good and happy, cus its not. they need help.

[TheNaturalWoman]

That's true, many of the African nations are in need of help, but it's good to see videos like this one (as well as the many related videos on the right side of the screen)

[thecoolconejoman]

Agreed.

[Gr8virtue]

wow!

[ExtraCholesterol]

open for business is right! time to take it to the next level so africa will be a factor in the global economy & not just for the natural resources. lets sell our creative thoughts & talents. not the precious land.

[Shontesimone]

i dont know why this is a shock to anyone.

[gloriousmandestroya]

WOW. The thing about this that people fail to realize is this is the same system that exploits people and rapes the planet. Africa is joining the western idea of prosperity. I may be critical but when I look at this video all I can think of is polluting exports and genocide encouraging diamonds. Everyone wants to be an economic power, this is why humanity is in trouble. I'm not against African prosperity and business at all, but maybe folks need to see the bigger picture.

[gloriousmandestroya]

As long as we have the super rich we will always have poverty. Always. Folks will always be made to suffer for our comfort and conveinence. Africa will continously bull precious land and trees to make room fro farms, factories and condos. Does anyone see a problem with that. If anything Africa should revert back to Earth, the motherland, simple living and farming NOT bug business. It only will enslave more Africans and make more old White men rich.

[gloriousmandestroya]

All this is saying is more technology, more pollution, more poverty. More cars, more trash, more death, more suffering, more war.

[xTheDarkestStarx]

I appreciate your vast concerns and criticisms towards this video, however, I feel that the comments section for this video on YouTube will provide very little impact for people excepting your viewpoint... You could try posting a video in response to this one, that tends to get people talking!

[gloriousmandestroya]

for sure, I will. I have. I've done one called "Westernizing Africa". I do need to talk more on it because it's sad to think that many Africans and Black Americans don't see this as a problem. We are essentially digging our own graves, paying for our own slavery.

[xTheDarkestStarx]

A lot of that has to do with enforced and adopted western ideologies about the security that capitalism and modernization/development would offer them... Sadly, the current system relies on the third world staying poor and not on us learning to be more sustainable and more reasonable with resources. Send me a link to your video, I'd like to see it.

[proudnijagirl]

And plus, Africa is actually improving cause alot of Africans are opening up companies like this all over the continent. And i'm proud of them for that.

Africans really need to stop depending on our government, they are not going to help us. And forget foreigners cause they are just their to use us.

Sometime i actually stand with the rebels, especially when i heard Nigerian rebels destroyed shell companies drill camp and they shut it down. So i'm proud of them for that.

[AfricanSolace]

ghana is working to make all lives happy. we will have jobs for those that is thinkers and will have manual jobs for those that are not.

ghanaians are making business in every degree with nice pay checks to help all. we are under contruction right now and will spread to those places that you said is the poverty sections. we all will be able to rise as equals even if you are not thinkers or you are. we also have places where we can stay within the beauty of earth. akon & ect tribe will make sure

[AfricanSolace]

all we want to do is make life easier for our brothers and sisters and show that we are equal. what have happened, was the past we must move forward now. us ghanaian are being attacked by the muslims if we stay the way we are we will be killed. we will establish are power but not to fight others but to live in peace nothing else.

please understand

[geneofisis]

...I'm sending my love to all of my black people worldwide! :) Let's do it again!!

[AfricanSolace]

yes^_^ and also check up on: un betrayal

more have happened over the years of all parts of africa but we will become one, once again

[proudnijagirl]

That's the thing. They are africans trying to better the life of their people. The Nigerian lady in the video,if you watch her interview. Everything she does is for nigeria. Even though she's mix, she doesn't used any western things in her company including models. All her workers are nigerians, her models are nigerian. Everything she do is for Nigeria/Africa. They are not exploiting Africa. Most ppl that exploit Africa is our corrupt governments and foreign companies.

[Zedchick]

Sweet Mother Africa, only sweet when there's no Matata!

[PharaohGoddess]

This was very inspiring. I love it!

[Ashantequeen]

I definately agree with that! Africa the great continent!

[geneofisis]

It's our time to shine!

[AfricanSolace]

we shine alot before dont believe me type in: ancient africa. us ghana have done alot and others but the same thing that always happened is happening now. the arab is taking our lands and claiming or works as their own.

[geneofisis]

Oh yeah, I know fam.We must learn from our mistakes- let's rise up and shine again.

:D :D

[b1ueocean]

African for life! Everything we love about Europe and/or American is waiting to happen in Africa. The media wants educated and prosperous blacks to ignore the continent so their supporters and strategic stakeholders can go there and control/mortgage everything. We need to deal with De Beers, Western oil companies, the IMF, the World Bank and corrupt two-faced politicians too WHILE doing everything we can to raise things up there in Africa as well as where we reside.

LEARN UR LANGUAGE TOO!

[geneofisis]

I agree with you 100%! Off to the Motherland we go....

[BestScreenwriter]

Im a black American and I didn't realize that Africa was so industrilize. They never show Africa in a positive light here in the US. Hopefully I will be able to help my people one day.

[lilnaomi]

thank u for this video

[poppa2006]

For the most part, rich black Americans are dismally disappointing with very little, if any, sense of self. Make the money in America and the rest of the world and invest it in the homeland.

[poppa2006]

And it is time that rich black Americans realise this and put their money where their mouths are by investing in the motherland. Rich blacks spend their money on 'blings' be it cars/rubbish jewelry/ridiculous houses/false prestige in American society which, when they have stopped earning, have no monetary value. Invest in Africa, invest in youngsters, invest in your own futures.

[nojunk3please]

let's go boys, it's our time!

[naija4lf]

Damn Right, we are OPEN FOR BUSINESS, Africa soon to be the most powerful continent, Nigerians stand the fuck up and keep coming up with more businesse. 1love.

[lordxenthi]

lol, sometimes its for charity but sometimes tv channels make africa look like the worst place to be on earth just for their ratings,views etc

[2fresh4dell]

I agree... I am so sick and tired of that shit!
