Enjoy your stay here because today's conversation is gonna be a good one. I got a gentleman in the studio. He has a lot to share about, I mean, he's journeyed from Ghana through the desert to Europe. And I think I always hear this stories on TV. I never knew a deal would come. Somebody was actually gonna sit beside me and share his story with me. You guys don't think it's incredible? So I'm gonna start the show right now. I'm gonna start the show right now. If you're ready, just say hi. Yeah, just say hi to me because I'm gonna start the show right now.

How are you all doing? I hope you guys are doing well. It's your favorite village boy, Mr. Ghana, may be right here. And we're gonna have an interesting conversation with a gentleman who used to live in Ghana. But at the end of the day, I don't know what happened. He actually go fed up Ghana and decided to go through the desert. So he arrived in Europe and I hate to tell people's story for them. I always want them to tell their own story. Yeah, so, my brother. And you know what? I don't think he's gonna show his face today, but I think you guys are gonna hear his voice. Eh? Another time, I might show my face. Another time, you might show your face, but not today. Yeah, not today. I love the fact that you're gonna keep them curious so that they don't see your face, but at least hear your voice. Can you guys hear him? Can you guys hear his voice? Say hello to my people, man. Hello, everyone. Sorry for not starting on time. Apologies from the village boy to the ghetto boy. Yeah. So... Yeah. So again, we apologize. We apologize. But my man, I just wanted to know your name. Sorry. Your name and where you from? Ah, okay. My name is Oma. Born and raised in Ghana. Some of them are called Nima. Nima? Yeah, Nima. Well, you're born and raised in Nima. Yeah. How is life like growing up in Nima? Because we all know Nima to be one of the biggest lousings in Ghana, man. How is it like growing up in Nima? Honestly, yeah. I really... Tongue got full. Coming up as a Nima boy. Ooh. Yeah, and... I'm proud to be a Nima boy. Interesting. The reason why I'm saying this, I want everyone regardless where you are. You have to be proud where you were born. Because where you were born tells who you are, makes you who you are, and really who you are again. So regardless where you were born, you have to be proud because you didn't choose to be born in there, but you were born there. So there is a reason. But that reason is something that I want to share with you guys. Reason born in Nima, I grew up in Nima and everything in Nima makes you understand life as independent person. Because Nima is a ghetto that some of you may have heard about it. Some, no. Not, yeah. So if you come up as a Nima boy, some people sometimes think negative. Okay. Because what Nima used to be. But I can tell you, 80, 90% of Nima are very good people. At what point did you decide that I'm living in Nima and I'm going abroad man? Okay. At that time, I was 15 to 16 years in that time. 15 to 16 years? Yes, 15 to 16 years. But what do you think? You were so young to travel abroad at that time. Yeah, that was tells you where I'm from. Only a Nima boy or I would put it this way, a ghetto boy can make this kind of decision. Not disrespect to anyone, but I'm just telling you, the privilege if you are born in the ghetto, there are some certain decisions that you can take a 40 years old man who is not a ghetto man will not take that decision. So at the age of 15, your first country that you visited was what country? Togo. Yeah, Togo. So which means that you passed to Togo to Libya? Yeah, you passed through Togo to Benin. Togo to Benin? Yeah, to Benin, to Niger. To Niger? To Niger, to Libya. Some people from Niger, they go to Algeria before going to Libya. Some people from Niger, they go straight to Libya. So if you are in Niger, there is a city called Agades. That is where most of the Tariqs are, which are the desert people who know how you call them, those who are to the Agades. So from Agades, then you go to Togo. But we start from Accra. We go back to Ghana. So you travel by, all these places that you're talking about, you travel by road? Yeah, by road, yeah, by road. Oh, it's going through your mind. Yeah. Traveling by road at the age of 15, to these countries. Honestly, what is in my mind at that time as a young boy coming out? Things going good with the family. And then the family have a business that they're doing, they're running. And all of a sudden, things fall apart. So when things fall apart, I look at left, right and center. I can always see Babylon is the option. What is the definition of Babylon? Definition of Babylon is how you people say, maybe Western countries. Western countries, you call Western countries, you call them Babylon. Okay. You know. So at that time, as a young boy, I don't want to stay in my community, do something that I would violate someone to make money. And at that time, the kind of money or opportunity I'm looking for, my own idea or destination is only in Babylon that I can make that money. So that's why you left? Yeah. That's why I left. You arrived in Libya? Yes. How long did you live in Libya? Four to five years, four and a half years. Four and a half years? Yes, four and a half years. What were you doing there? Okay. First, when we got in Libya, you know, as any hustler, anywhere you step, you're full. You just want to survive. So anything that comes your way, I'm telling you guys, this is reality. Back in Ghana, or where you're coming from, there are so many things you don't want to do. But as soon as you step your foot outside your country, you're ready for everything. What was the worst thing that you did in Libya? The worst thing you did living in Libya? Okay. What is this? The worst thing? I'm so sorry, man. Like the house flies. I don't know where it came from. This tribe is trying to be a part of it. It's too short now. It's a nature, you know. What was the worst thing that you did in Libya? The worst thing that I did in Libya is going to Stoway, which is Lampa Lampa Lampa Dusa. Into Stoway? Yes, Stoway. That's the worst thing you ever did? Yeah, that is the worst thing. What makes it worse then? Okay. What makes it worse then? I call that journey. Journey of no return. And anything that you want to do, the definition is, you know, 80% maybe you might not survive. But you're just trying to sacrifice something to gain something. And at that time, as a young boy, like nothing you scared of fear. And if you refer back to where you come from, as the name of boy or get-to-boy, you've seen a lot in your community. Yeah. So taking that big step is something that, if you are not a get-to-boy, you can't take that step. Trust me. You know what? Let me just go to my audience and I'm gonna get back to you as soon as possible. Walk on and I know you all are asking why is he not showing his face. You know, you have to understand that some people love to be private and that is why he is private, but he loves to share this story with each and every one of you. Man, I don't know. I think whoever brought this house flies. Anyway. Yeah. Okay. So what am I even saying? So some people love to be private. That's why I'm doing this video off camera, but at least you can hear his voice. I really want him to share details about what really happened to him when he was on the water. I mean, the sea story. That's what I really wanna hear. So if you just join, please do us a favor. Like the stream. I don't know. Have you guys liked the stream yet? Let me check. How many of you have liked the stream?

And also today is actually one of the days that I want us to raise funds for Mr. Jerry, the man who is building a resource center for kids in Ghana. I think we, as Africans, we need to come together and support our own. He's doing something incredible. He did everything by himself, raising money by himself to start up an industrial world. He has been able to build four-storey buildings just for kids. So we're gonna raise money for him. So if you are here, I'm gonna drop the GoFundMe page. Feel free, send a dollar so that we all will be part of that dream. Thank you. Oh, thank God, thank God. All right, so give me a minute. I need to get this whole, do I have, what do you call it? I don't know, I need to get a support for my PA but I don't think she's here. I'm so sorry guys, but don't worry, I'm gonna make this happen. Yeah, I'm gonna make this happen. It's just one month doing all of that. So forgive me. We'll definitely do better with time. I'm just gonna put a link in here so that you all can check it out. So let's raise funds, support this man, letting build the resources. Somebody's asking me, what am I coming from? Very soon, yeah, very soon. All right, very soon. So this is the link, the GoFundMe page link. You all should go check it out. If you can donate a dollar, that would be okay. At least we've raised $2,000 already. Within a short time, we've raised $2,000. Before this show ends, I will be so happy if we can raise $3,000. Yeah, thank you. So this is the link already. So now we're gonna continue the show. Let me check it out. I need people to help me out. So Shay, okay, Shay, can you help me? I'm gonna add you as a moderator. Kofi Azuma, I'm adding you as a moderator.

Okay, Doreen, I'm gonna make you a moderator. Doreen is actually the one who started the GoFundMe page for us. So, yeah, moderators help me so that people get to have a piece of the link so that they will all be donating to the man. Where's Ms. Trudy to help you? She's not here, she's in Kenya. All right, so I guess we are good to go. Thank you. My brother, we have over 500 people waiting to hear your story. What I want to know is, can you share your story from land to the sea to get to your first destination? No, okay. So, the journey starts from Accra, Ghana, and Nima. So, like I said, when things not going well in the family business-wise and I look at left and right, front and back, I can see the only way or step I have to take is to move to Babylon, see if I can find opportunity to help solve part of the financial crisis. But unfortunately, it's not what it is because what happen is most things that we see on social media, I call it packaging of housing. The Babylon people are very well organized in terms of packaging themselves. So, you think as soon as you step your foot in any outside country, it's honey and milk. It's not the way. So, from Accra to a town called Aflau, which is the border town, I have no idea, don't know nobody. And as a young boy coming up, not much research. The only thing I know, you need your five liter of water and Gary, some of you might know what is Gary. Now you've been with sugar. So, packaged in my school bag, and just chucked a good shot. And if you ask me what is the definition of that trick, honestly, I don't know, but I have in my mind that I want to go to Libya, from Libya, I want to go to Babylon. So, you were in school that time? Yeah, I am in school at that time. Yeah, I am in school at that time. So, you left from there to Aflau? Yeah, from there. From there to Aflau. Yeah, from there to Aflau. So, from Aflau, across the border, you know how African borders are. And like I said, I look very young at that time. Did you have a passport at that time? I didn't need no passport, honestly. Oh, you travel from here to Libya without a passport? No passport, right. I think I don't need a passport soon, man. I think I need a passport. I think I need a passport. I need a passport. If you don't have a passport, like I said, you have to go to getaway. That's one good thing. How did you cross the border from Aflau? Thank you. That's where you use the getaway to cross the border. So, that's one thing I like about getaway. All of my getaway boys have options or ideas. What is not possible to become possible? So, when I got Aflau, I just saw people going through. And before I approached the border, I come with some certain guy in the car and just tell him, hey, I'm just going to Lumet. Because I know that it's the first time after Aflau you will see him in Tobu. And he said, what for? So I'm going to my auntie. So you have to apply some acapella there. Because we are a young boy. Nobody wants to hold your hand without knowing what reason. And the guy understands. And he just holds my hands. We get to the border. And oh, it's my young one. He's just going to see his parents in Tobu. That's it. Did you use the same route to pass the Benin border? So, we just passed that. And you know how our bodies are. You just keep something small. With that passport, you go. Which is very bad. I'm telling you honestly. It's not a good thing but that is the getaway. So, from Lumet, now we left Aflau. We are in Lumet, Tobu. We have to take a car to Kutunu. So, from there we got a car to Kutunu. And if you ask me what is on the road or what is going on. I have no idea. And I packed my gari. And feel close in my bag. And I have my five liters of water. And I put all my money in the bag. So, when we got to Kutunu in Benin. Now we are heading towards Nyamai. Which is Niger. The capital of Niger. And then I bought my tickets. And I forgot myself. Everything is in the car. I thought I was in my mom's room. So, normally you know back in Ghana. You are in your mom's room but you sleep with your grandma. So, I forgot myself. Come out of the car because it's a night time. And trying to go into my grandmother's room. And then I realized the dread. I am already gone. And my money and everything is in the car. But God is so good. The driver knew there is one young boy who bought tickets. But where is the boy? They don't know where the boy is. They don't know where the boy is. Very sad because anything can happen. So, actually the driver was looking for me. And God is so good. I realized now I am not in Ghana. And I tried to find where the station is. And then the driver was very upset. The car is full. Where have you been? And I just said, I am sorry. And the guy said sit down. So, as soon as I got in the car, I just said, hey, please come out of my bag and take something. And he said, yes, but just be quick. So, I go back into my bag and take my mic. Because now I know it's something that I have to open my eyes. So, I just opened the bag and got my money out. Then the journey started. From Kutonu to Nyamai. So, from Kutonu to Nyamai, it's another journey too. So, when we go to Nyamai, I want to go to Agades. But at that time, the money that I am having is not enough because it's not something that I prepared or planned. So, I don't have much money. So, when we go to Nyamai, that's Niger capital. I ask for the bus to go into Agades. And then the bus driver told me, this is just one month. And I said, okay, no problem. But can I ask for favor? He said, what favor? I said, is there any discount? I'm a young boy, I don't have much money. And he said, okay, what we will do is just sit aside, leave the car full. When the passengers occupy the whole seat, there is a portion near the bus driver where the apprentice, which is the maids, we just go through there, then you give something and say, that's why I like to get away. So, at least I save some money because by looking at the money, if I want to pay full amount, by the time I go to Agades, it's going to be very hard. So, this is the route that you used to go to Libya? Yeah, this is the route. And then you lived in Libya for four years? For four years. So what were you doing in Libya for that long? Honestly, my first job, I'm a houseboy, what people call it, maid or house servant. If you see the gentleman sitting beside me telling you that he was a houseboy, I wish I can show him, but yeah, let's keep it this way. You're a houseboy in Libya? Yeah. And back in Ghana. If somebody tells you that be a houseboy, you'll be a houseboy. Even my clothes, I don't even watch my clothes. I'm telling you. I don't even watch my clothes. I won't fit by my parents. Okay, so that was your first job. Somebody said I should ask you, how did you get to know the route to Libya? Very good question. Okay, knowing the route to Libya, like I said, I was in school, but when things not going well with the family, I just think I have to go to Babylon overseas. But I don't know where to get an idea or this. So what I did is I bought a book with map. You know, you have the countries and you have the towns. So I know from Ghana, you go to Togo. Ghana and Togo has border. So before two or three days, before that January, I started looking at the map. So I have the book. You know on the road, you can see people selling Ghana map or World Map, which is at last. So that two or three days, that's what I've been looking at. Somebody said, I should ask you, how long did it take you from Ghana? It was a crowd to Libya. How long did it take you on the road? A crowd to Libya takes two weeks. That is my own journey. Everybody's journey is different. And in that two weeks, I'm among the luckiest one. Some people can do one month. Which routes did you go? Some people are going through Agades. What is from Agades? You have connection to Libya. Some people from Agades, they are going to Arelitz. Arelitz is close to Algeria. So from Arelitz, then you're going to Asamaka, a town in Algeria. So we have two routes. If you go through Arelitz, you walk. There is a mountain called Mount Oga. You walk by foot. For a couple of days, if you are unlucky, it might take weeks. And you see people die. But I haven't been through that. But we met people in Agades who use that route before. So we use the Agades to Durkou. That's what we call it. Durkou in Niger. But by looking at the map, the map will not say much. It just sells to the countries and the capital cities. So I use that map to go to countries. That's what happened. So you said your first job was being a housewife. Yeah, being a housewife. The second job in Libya was what? The second job, housewife. Housewife. So you did this houseboy job. So you decided that the time is now. I need to go. Yeah, I did this houseboy for like a second job. But the houseboy works only monthly salary. So I see the steps I want to take. The houseboy is not going to help me. So I switch to Malaga. Malaga is a job in Libya. Everybody that has been to Libya when you said Malaga, in Ghana you would say Macy. Macy. But we have two type of Macy in Libya. You know laying the bricks. You just doing the plastering. So that's what we call Malaga. A lot of this Bounu boys. That's their favorite. Malaga. Because Malaga the more you work the more you end. Houseboy, you might end 300, 400 dinars in a month. But if you are doing Malaga in a month, you might end 1000 dinars or 1000. But your boy will pay the price. I'm really enjoying this conversation. That's why I'm telling you that stick and stay with me. Don't go anywhere. Like the stream which is very important. And also we also raising funds for Mr. Jerry who is building a resource center for kids in Ghana. So the link please help me drop the link so that people who just joined who wants to donate a dollar to Mr. Jerry who will be able to donate a dollar. We know what we're doing. It's a year of charity and I'm telling you guys to come together and give back to the society. So I'll be happy if you go to the GoFarming page and donate a dollar. Thank you. I'm talking to a gentleman in the house today. Sorry that he's not showing his face but trust me he's going to show his face next time. What we're doing in here is more sharing his journey from Accra to Libya and Libya to Malta. Malta was your first country. Yeah, after Libya it's Italy. We're going to talk about that we're going to talk about that. I just want you to tell me this. After four years we decided that you want to go. No. I spent two years in Libya. Yeah, two years to two and a half years that I decided that I want to go to Italy which is Lampa Lampa. But from day one of my idea is not to stay to Libya. But if I look I don't have the money to go to the strong way. Lampa Lampa. You have to pay to go to strong way. Yeah, you have to pay. We have two types of strong way but most people think when they say strong way it is the one that you only smuggle to go into the boats. Now some boats you not smuggling yourself in there you pay in actually that's what I tell you I call that boat or that genuine. Genuine of no return because the boats you are going to join in the boat is not coming back to Libya or back to that country. So the people use the money they get from you to buy that boat and it's not a proper boat that I'm telling you it's a wooden boat the one you see the fisherman use it not the one with the one with the add-bom bottle so when they have the fishes they put them in the middle there is some small cover and in that cover that is where the engine the add-bom bottle is at the back the engine there that's where they put the fish. So you are on top of the boats. So you experience that how long did it take you from your initial destination to final destination? The journey is supposed to take three days. On water. On water from Libya we have a couple of stone ways. Some people depart from Tunisia some people from Morocco but if you are in Libya you have two options either you go to Tunisia to Italy or from Libya direct to Italy but Libya to Italy is a bit far so it takes three days because the kind of boat you are using and all this thing it's not something like speed boat or it's just this God help me boat it's not a proper boat so they will just give you a rough idea today when we depart by saying tomorrow sunset we my way to Malta from Malta to Libya not like you going through Malta like in Malta you going through bypass from Malta to Italy it takes this that's how it happens I want you to share the experience in the boat with us how was the experience like? Honestly the experience we go back to the desert we go back to Agades the experience from Agades to Libya abroad is hell because Agades is a transit point you see all the migrants from whatever African countries you have idea you will see everybody everybody tells you the story the main reason that you want to play it out of this continent and you see women young men some of them even with young young kids very self story bro because if you look at the people's eyes and you look at the desert it's not funny no restaurant no bastard no place of shower if it's not necessity no you won't even adverse your enemy to go through that road so from Agades our women are going through a lot I'm being honest with you and you can ask anybody sometimes some of us don't want to go deep in that story but that's how people if you want to share something share it for real if you don't want to share it just keep it on the road to Libya or to Algeria all that desert land women get ripped in front of youth you can't do nothing bro I'm telling you and your money there are rebels on the way too if they see you with money they will take their money and everybody has this agenda of going through that road some people are going there sacrifice get something to help their family back home some people are going there just to be in Babylon or I'm also in Babylon today just to flex with these material things and some people are just going there because people are going there so we have three type of travelers we have tourists we have hustlers and we have rome ambassadors rome ambassadors just want to fly the country we are in this and the tourists just want to see what is happening but the real hustlers are a lot because nobody want to live where he was born or where he was raised to go through that and we go back to the women side the people on the desert I'm not telling you to hate them or to you know what I mean they get ripped the women and some of the boys if you look a bit fit they just try to put fear on you or you know what just try to want to treat you but the saddest part is the women side because nobody wants to see his own sister or mother or auntie being ripped in front of him you see and these things are happening in life on the desert how long is the desert journey ok the desert journey from agadas to duro is three days sometimes if you have two types of cars we have the long cruises you guys will drive from there yeah you will drive but not you drive you are passengers so we have the Toyota the pickup Toyota that one can't go within two weeks but we have the big trucks like the one that they put in jagged here inside you know the chopper one the big one so that one also is carrying camels and they put the camels inside and you guys are on top you are on top hanging between the two you know the two bus hanging in there and some of you are sitting on the edge your legs are looking outside in case if you want to fall you might fall inside the camels you know what I mean then you go to the duro group so when you get to duro group 2 there is something they call combine because of the rebels they have to get a number of cars and then give you convoy but over there they call it combine but it's a convoy get a more than 30-40 cars in case if you meet rebels you have soldiers that will take you but they also take you money and then they take you all the way there is a country there is a town in Libya called Gatron before you go to Gatron sometimes they will live in the desert and you walk like a day you walk by foot for a day then they show you this is a village you walk for a day and in that car too there is no road on the desert and they are not using compass to show them the road so if your cars are not many you have few cars sometimes you can get lost on the desert and when you get lost in the desert and you run after fuel that is the end of you because everybody that goes through the desert sometimes you see just stone headstone that's where they bury someone and there is no identity did you see a dead body when you... oh yeah you will see the grave but because of the sun in the desert very hard to see the flesh you might see the headstone or the skeleton I don't know if I can continue this video but I feel so emotional right now you know what is happening to me like whatever you are saying I am trying to imagine it's really affecting me but yeah history is far more greater than his face you all should listen to what he is saying are you hearing this truth we need to come together as one I need to read almost all the questions in here I am paying attention to what he is saying that's why I have not been able to check what's going on in here but I just want to tell Tamara Tamara yeah thank you so much for the support chat have you guys liked the stream make sure you like the stream like the stream and as we continue the show thank you don't forget that Mr Jerry needs a dollar from me alright so I think we've already talked about that when did you leave Ghana which year yeah it's 1995 0.96 0.95 0.96 okay so you managed to cross the desert so we managed to cross the desert but not many people were able to survive the journey yeah you are right because some people don't seek nothing much you can do nothing much you can do and all of you or most of you met on the road some people are individual like myself and some people are with maybe friend or brother or something but some people are just single by themselves and no any identification why I'm explaining this part some people will have their loved ones who left for 8 years ago they might think oh they are alive they might come back honestly some of them are not alive but it is what it is after you cross the desert that's when yeah after we cross the desert we go to the first village Gatron in Libya there is another village before Gatron but it's like a small village it's called Bahit so we go to Bahit to Gatron so Gatron is where I got the house boy job because from Gatron we have to go to Sabah there are small small villages before Sabah Sabah is like third or fourth capital of Libya so I got my job in Gatron because the man look at me he met me what happened is that when we go to Gatron now the drivers already show us the road we walk into that village so when we walk into that village we can't just come to the town so we just have an uncompleted building so early morning we are all hungry we don't know what to do but the good thing is like I get a boy always want to find an idea I tell the boys listen we can't stay here without eating nothing and that's one good thing about Libya that's what I appreciate and I laugh very much you make all the citizens in the West Coast scenario you have what to eat everybody have way to put their heads down so we go to the first house as soon as we press the bell they will talk Arabic and if you don't understand that Arabic what you understand or what you want at least you know we say to him like food you want food so you just press the bell they ask you to say nothing but you just said what you understand what is your purpose of bringing the bell food food food and these people will come out from their houses, lovely people they will give you food without doing you and it is very cold winter time and if they look at what you are wearing they can see Sada and they will say that we are coming I am good thing about that country first aid you will get it and they give us food because we went there the two of us and the rest of the boys and they said on the desert uncompleted we don't have enough time I think we spent 49 minutes already so I want you to tell me about your life on the sea how was the experience like the experience on the sea is unimaginable experience that you have ever come across if you are not in there first of all you don't know how to stream secondly there is no life jackets and thirdly the captain of the boat the proper captain what do you mean he doesn't have experience he doesn't have no bloody experience I am telling you he doesn't have experience they just ask who understands the compass there is something that we call compass that is in my own general I am telling you for all that genuine life they might have proper captain all these captains like they have no experience so the compass how to read the compass in so so so kilometers if the compass is facing west you just go west for thousand kilometers and then in another 700 kilometers where the compass is east you just follow the compass so they have no idea so it's like a blind man leading journey so that's how it is how many of you were in your boat 38 how big is the boat bro just 90 boats and in the 38 people we are 36 black people we all Africans don't get me wrong but we have two Arabs so they are those controlling their boat because they also desperate they want to be in Babylon there are two Arabs yes they are Algerians they are Algerians and for them because they said they understand the compass so they give them so they are not paying for the trip so they are going to that trip for free how much did you pay at that time one person you pay around 100 or 1200 in between but there are middle men who have their cards in the money you pay yes so what was the worst thing that happened inside you the worst thing is when the boat broke down the boat just broke down when I say broke down not falling apart but the engines start so you can't go front you can't go forward you can't come back and the worst thing also is when people are desperate they are not checking either you have water or food in the boat we suppose have food and water but because everybody is rushing everybody forgot the food because the people who are organizing their trip they bought you food and water so we forgot not to take that food and that water only few people have few waters like the Baltic one with them not many only few people and few people have pepsulins and brush so when we took off from first day everything is going fine so happy people are enjoying our finally we are going to Babylon and then within 24 hours the boats the engines are stopped and no food no water so people start drinking their own urine but that is a good thing bro I'm telling you some people drinking some people drinking they see water and that is hazard drinking urine yeah drinking your own urine some were drinking they see water why? no option no water in the boat no food so what is what are your options you have no option and it's a very tiny boat you can't even stretch your legs properly so some people start get like soft food that legs start going black if you are sitting in one place no movement your blood is not circulating so the finger toes start to go start to go that so we are we spend 10 days in that boat 10 days 10 good days bro 10 good days the 11th day is when we get rescue so in 10 days what were you guys eating nothing only your urine or the sea water and those who drink the sea water they have a lot of infection on their food and then and then the phase day when the boat stops there is nothing you can do you know Africa we love to pray that is where you see the chanting and I'm telling you these things work for real there are some situations that we are in no body can do nothing only God and God help us and I think the fourth day one of the boys not two of them sorry they fall in the sea they just fell because no sleeping stress and it's not like we have somewhere to to hold nothing the other guy we sitting together many come many come I don't understand much but I understand a bit by the time we see this guy went in there he entered he entered that's the end of it and if he has nobody that knew him in the boat if I remember don't know where he is nothing and the fifth day also another boy do the same thing because we get in some state no food, no energy no nothing so but some of the boys who have known the second boy because the first boy I think is by himself they might send message to his family and then that's it so fourth day fifth day and the finite thing on the sea too go whatever you think on the land trust me it's on the sea I see at night time you might hear some noises if you are not in that boat or you are not in that situation anything they said you will not believe it unless you are there at night you can hear some funny noise like you know how chickens do early morning in Africa you can hear that at night time when the place is quiet you can hear some noise like you are driving on the portals something something so that's my belief I believe there is everything in there and guess what you have no option only God will save you and at that time if you look at the atmosphere watch you are in and anytime you raise your hands and pray to God God takes you to there next day so that's what we've been doing seven days eight days and those who cannot move or exhausted they can't do nothing we put them down where they put their fishing you know when you got the fish from the water they keep the fish and you just lie down you have no idea what is going to happen what is not going to happen the people 38 38 how many people survived at the end of the day 36 so only two people and in that 36 too we have three people that they are food like the gods brought it yeah because of the salt and they drinking the salt too so they have to amputate just to survive just to survive so they have to amputate they are they are less so the last day there is this big ship that is going to survive so that ship he is the one that seems as but it's not sure if they are like both or human beings at that area because you know on the sea not everywhere ships or boat path they have some rough areas and all this I have no idea but where we are it's like a cycle the water is just rotating they call it like sink hole so they saw us we are in a sink hole the boat but they are not too sure if it's a boat so they have to stay some miles away and you know if you want to from one dam to another you use like pumping machine there is some pumping machine so these big ships I don't know how they do it but they have their own technique they will just do something the water will just do like this running so that's how we are going to come out of the sink hole and when we come out of the sink hole they keep doing it and you can see there is some pumping machine yeah the ship till we get close to them we finally arrive so when we get close to them they throw their lights like this you will not see them because the light is on your face but they behind the light can see you because they are not too sure if we are pirates or you know what I mean yeah pirating and all this stuff so they throw their lights for a couple of time and they didn't hear any gunshot or something then now they have confidence these people might be stolen because they need help so they helped you guys yeah so they helped us by throwing we have leather by say rope leather most of that leather you will see in elcaptus yeah so they throw that leather when they throw that leather one of them follow that leather a very big adventure into our boat and then that's where they study rescue mission taking one after the other yeah this is interesting and I hope you guys are really enjoying the story in here because this is something that he experienced and it's so good to sit down with him to share his story with me I really want you to like the video like the stream if you can share it I've also seen people sending superchat in here Aiyoka before we are getting in thank you for the superchat I think I also saw I saw a lot of people sorry my mind you know I'm busy with the streams I hardly check out these things saying here is my one dollar plus nine dollars more dollars for nine people who can't spare one dollar today thank you asking which kind of people who are the Arabs okay so yeah he's saying African leaders really need to step up their game the Utah suffering I agree so do you think the whole story that is happening is the fault of African leaders bro I would say yes we have no system bro let me tell you something about Africa that Africans ourselves don't have no idea Africa is the only place that God bless us with everything when I said everything everything that you think of mankind should have in its life but most of our leaders they're not visionaries bro we don't have housing system proper some of these people because others is a transit point somebody will tell you even what to eat it's a problem for him so the leaders are the main problem I would not say hundred percent but seventy percent seventy percent yes you went you went to your first country was first country how long have you stayed in Europe in general I've been stayed in Europe in Pacific we ended up in Malta Malta is European country but not like we are there by ourselves we are there military camp because from the boat they took us to hospital make sure everybody is okay so from the hospital they bring us back to military camp inside Malta is called Valinta and Valinta is like Accra and in Valinta is called Tagandia that's where like we said Bemaka so we are there for two months for the three months I wanted to know how long I've been living in Babylon in total in total with this particular trip I come back to Ghana in year two thousand ninety five to two thousand that was five years because it's ninety five and yes I come back to Ghana in two thousand and then another trip also to Brazil Argentina going to Argentina and Brazil you used to play this time right? yeah used to play this time you had a passport yeah had a passport to Brazil and then from Brazil to other places without no passport too this guy and then we come back again things didn't work and then we come back but this particular Brazilian trip it's not about family issue or financial issue it's about now we want to go all the way to America you know how we see all these vibes of this and then yeah so you choose you left Europe now we are in Malta for three months so in Malta the interrogators and after giving us hospital something something they just want us to tell them where did we join the boats security reasons blah blah blah we refuse and then they send us back to Libya yes after ten days after all the struggle after all this struggle because what happened is we tried to claim we say it grow which is they said asala and then they didn't accept and the ship which helped us to Libya to Malta it's a Libyan ship so they demand we have to go back to Libya and explain how did we to move the boat to Libya and that one is also underground anybody who lives in Libya if you tell them Zanzu I want to know after all these things wasn't really worth it to be honest with you it hasn't worked yet because the reason why I said it hasn't worked yet not many people will survive this kind of problem and in Africa if you look at from 1995 to 2000 that is five years so if you put an agenda for five years trust me you will see a better outcomes I want to know like you've been back do you see people that have them here that they are living their best life ooh a lot of them are living their best life they never went to Europe they just going to Europe for holidays or they go to Babylon for holidays in Canada but the Chinese they are here and they put us something for a long time and it worked that's interesting so are you saying that it's possible to make it in Africa yes my brother it's possible to make it in Africa if you know your agenda it's possible to make it in Africa if you know your agenda yes that's deep I just want to say thank you so much for joining us today this is a deep conversation about a young African man who left Africa and found himself in Europe and then the day he came back in the aim of going to America and ended up

sell me to has a connection house connection house the prostitute house connection house is what prostitution prostitution yes it's a prostitution house but the woman wants me to walk in the hospital but the madam of the woman said no that I am too beautiful to do a cleaning job because once we are beautiful in Libya is another problem it's a very big money the prostitution they sell somebody who is beautiful is not the amount they sell somebody who is ugly I don't know if he gets me I don't know I get your story I'm just shocked yes it's not the same price the madam of my madam said that I am

continent we are still slavery ourselves that's why I said about the leadership our leaders they tend to lie high on all these things you know what I mean a lot has been going on bro it's like hell what she is telling you is true we have people that they are our own people they call themselves connection men and all these things they are telling people how they you know they saw no any rumours what she is saying is true and if they sell you to madame or usueva and you have to work to pay that money I'll tell you one funny story I don't want to mention them there is this lady that is sold to

okay erica sorry I forgot to ask you where you are right now I mean it's early I made it finally you made it thank god I made it so how how did you live in Libya for one year I wanted to because everybody everybody wanted to hear you okay so when they took me to the garage where I would be doing the work they asked me to do so the first day I went there the woman who owns the connection house they call her semera she's a french woman and they are they are what is the name of that place there is a youtuber who went to that place of recent I don't know is your friend Tony Sonten went to that village of recent where there is a village that guy went to semera is the name of the woman and they speak french there the village I'm talking about they have bandre with beanie beanie tile tile not tile maybe the name of the guy is tile but the village I'm talking about they have bandre with beanie they share border with beanie yes I don't know yet semera maybe I will remember the country the woman that owns that place the name of that woman but her name is semera so the first day I always have that gift then got anybody that sees me favor so my name in Libya was favor so immediately the woman saw me she was like oh she's beautiful the woman gave me all her clothes all the stuff dash me money to cook what the guest told me what she does to them so I was there the first day I don't know where to start from because I don't even know what they are doing so I was like using my eye to see what is going on how can a one person sleep with more than 10 men in a day what I have never dreamt of in my whole life I don't even know where to start from differently and I saw some people one minute one minute is what she's telling you is reality and the funny thing is one woman sleeping with 10 people don't get me wrong not with their eyes the 10 people the men not with their eyes some of them take a lot of tablets and unimaginable somethings that you can never sleep with different different how can one person one hour with that not even coming and if you come which you release you pay 10 dinas or 20 dinas yes 15 dinas 15 dinas in our time is around 10 dinas I know one commander I did it with this and the woman the sister trying to take the guy out and say please take your money and whatever I say lie lie so this is very sad I'm telling you so all of them taking different drugs did they were protective it depends yes but you the woman who is working there is something they normally put in their body that is wipe some people can use to clean face or clean children on gum they wash it they put life form inside their body the women that is working they will put that inside their body to protect pregnancy if you don't want to use condom yes wipe anything you can put it inside to protect the pregnancy so it was there in a day and after the whole saga the day time in the night they still carry their break what they mean by that day break is the people that will sleep with them from that night in the morning they have worked from morning till night too they will still carry another people that will sleep with them from that night till morning they will sleep with them because they don't carry their break and they don't even know what they are talking about they will sleep because they don't even know where to start from so when I was there looking at the stuff that was happening there are some gays that I saw that they are womb 4 I'm like how can a woman womb 4 is that possible I never hear of that in my entire life and they said yes it's because of too much of sex they meant they are sleeping with their dick is very big I hold my head I say God you cannot want me in this kind of place after some days they catch a gay they beat her up I was asking what is it they said that gay was working there but she ran away finally they catch her she have to pay kind too of the money that she supposed to pay before but before that the nearly kid is gay he never end there the same that period because month is about to finish all the gays was crying I'm like what is going on they say I have not worked so much the money I supposed to get to this

schnapp yes schnapp is a gogoro in english they will be that woman beat one gay the gay die they throw away the gay for lampa lampa they throw away the gay for water the gay republic the gay republic that is where we are from Semera they throw this gay to live because of what she didn't meet up the amount of money she supposed to meet up with in a month because in a month maybe your money you

job for me because you see this one I am seeing here I cannot do it I am the only child where will I start from the woman said no problem she will talk to her madam they beat me that day they beat me because I said I will not do the work they beat me they beat me that day I am very stubborn you know I am telling people this stubbornness there is a place it will favor you and there is a place you have to let it go just be like momu and get what you want but that particular place I really need it because if I do that work I don't know what my future holds for me I don't even know where to start from after beating me they did not abandon me I refused to work boys are spending on me but I work it did not come from my mind I don't know where to start from do you know what I am seeing here how

in the evening I stayed there from morning to night no food no water I did not even breath well talk of people looking for food or something to drink I stayed there and hide from that early morning still in the evening when I noticed that everywhere is calm no more bomb no more shooting because I was just peeping I said that everywhere is clean so the place I went to there was a dukkan and say dukkan as if I am in Libya there was a supermarket they call it dukkan in Libya but it is a supermarket let me explain where you people understand so I was there nowhere to go to so the guy not saw me I am like madam do you need help I say yes can you help me I say yes I am a Nigerian I am a Nibbo woman see what happened the boy is ok but he is not staying here he just came to pick some of his things he is going back to sea side the sea side is where they are pushing people he say he is going back there I said I do not mind you can take me anywhere you are going to if I am not I do not have this nation I do not even have anywhere to go to the boy said ok he took me along with him he can only help me but he cannot pay all the money I said don't worry how much is the pushing money he told me so before I left Nigeria I was selling crayfish and other things because I was beautiful then check the years and check me now I was beautiful then but I never do a prostitution I was selling crayfish if crayfish market to go I said tomatoes so I said don't worry I still have some stuff left and I still have some money I gave somebody I am unable to hold for me so I have to call the carers 50,000 for me and Naira I gave the boy the boy said he can help me with this one I stayed in sea side for 3 months in the sea in the place they are pushing they will beat something like a house something with a trampoline or anything that will cover him so I will stay there the boy is feeding me for that I would not like the boy to feed me we are friends the only thing I could do to him is just to be a friend with him boyfriend and care friend let me say the truth because if you are not that nobody will help you so we were boyfriend and boyfriend the boy was feeding me and all that so after one day I am like I need to go and see this sea so that I will know what I am backing up I will never see and never hear did I see that sea I collapse I collapse in the sea I fainted and I do not even touch the water only they see what I am seeing they have different colors they see that they say God is the beginning and the end the sea has no beginning and the end I fainted after a few minutes they will come back I said I do not think I can continue this journey I am the only child and my parents is late that means the lineage is closed who will talk this story after some period I met new friends they were gisting they were giving me some courage I am like maybe this Europe will favor me I said I said okay no problem but the story I was hearing so many people that I knew that died some of their bodies collapsed some of their bodies paid some of their kids I do not even know where to start I was if you see me there if you see me there I lean lean not the food though not thinking I am lean the things that I see make me lean not the food I see food that I do not see after some months I thought you are doing this period I said are you serious I said I will go I am ready I said yes I am ready the lamp you cannot wear earrings no necklace you cannot wear clothes that have zip because that thing is balloon there is no sheep that thing is no sheep our own is balloon it cannot at the end time it is balloon not boats some people are mistaking that as boats it is not boats because the guy I am walking with is a connoisseur man he is a pusher man so I know all those things I feed them you understand so that night they arranged everybody they arranged everybody I said are you sure you will go I said I will go I am strong I will go my brother they loaded the boats I stayed in the boats I can't remember as I am talking to you I am just remembering how they loaded that boats we are up to 100 or 120 in that boat they loaded us that was in the night till the next day we woke up middle of nowhere because I don't even know where we were whether it is on the sea or on the sheep I don't know where we were so luckily we saw a big boat which is Italian rescue everybody was so tired because there is no food no water because you can't carry water and I will not carry water and if some people have water some people don't have water the weight will not balance the weight will not be ok because of that no water no food so that the weight will be ok for everybody to go so when I saw that rescue ship I will not lie you I saw the rescue ship but I don't know how I entered I know I saw it but how I found myself inside I don't know when I get up I looked I know that I am in the rescue ship then I start looking for people that you knew half of the people died half of the people died because some boys that have strength were marching them some don't have strength people like me don't have strength so it was people that helped me to the ship they helped to carry me to the ship that was how I made it I did not enter on my own I will not come and lie thank God for saving me and it was because of the few friends I was sitting with they were the one that put me they know that it just collapsed that I collapsed so they helped me to the ship that was how I entered the ship I was rescued that ship that we call it lampa lampa that is the Mediterranean sea that sea that sea is not the beginning and the end they say God is the beginning and the end but you see that sea that sea is not the beginning and the end the sea that has different color the sea that you cannot drink from that sea is so too you dare not drink from that sea your intestine will cut that sea they see we are talking about that have different colors you will see yellow, you will see green how long did it take? how long did it take? after they she-raped the rescuers before the ship before the ship it was just one day the night till the next morning they push us in the night the next morning maybe I do not know the time now they see the ship we call rescuers the night till the next day now we see the ship call rescuers the ship we call rescuers which is Italian people now they give us one slice of bread and one apple now they survive for the days until we reach the dry land I think the big ship dry for days before we reach the dry land big ship dry for people dry for

ourselves I mean we can start from Erica so if Erica doesn't get 2000 subscribers now I will believe that Africans don't support each other but because we have but for now I don't believe it I don't believe it that Africans don't support each other because I believe that when we are together we are more united so this is the link to Erica Erica this is the link to Erica's channel somebody want to know how we like the houseband I don't know how I like the houseband don't lie there you are not going to tell them not you have to be good just always be good my houseband is my trap too did they hate my houseband we can't come to Italy here they will keep us in a camp we are staying in a hotel they keep their hotel with people not only me but they are not cooking there is no money but they will be feeding you they will be feeding you with their own food so there is a place we want to go and eat by one o'clock and the next one is in the evening so I was going there to eat they have to because I don't know him there he was monitoring me he was staying in Switzerland but that particular week he came to Italy to renew his documents so he was passing by on my city he was passing through my city so he decided to check up the Ibaron because he had buried the name of the city you see what I am saying in Buzano is a tourism city they have a very beautiful people they like called the mud draw of it so he said he wants to check the city to know if he can relocate to this place so that day I went to eat and I was going home so he had been monitoring me for days and there was a day he was not because he cut me four years and four years and he had my nose, my neck, my leg and he heard me saying this is on my Bibi Oko so with the inquiry the boys there my city told me in this gear you know if you cut them all don't try your best this gear will not know if you have a problem it's not like you don't know what my problem is it's just that I have I don't know what I am looking for I don't have time to come and be doing boyfriend, girlfriend of a thing and here a lot of people have been here I am so sorry in Bini people their lifestyle and our own lifestyle is not the same I am unable to get from him so our lifestyle is not the same and the guys I am seeing is from Bini, Bini, Bini I am like I can't deal with without knowing that all of them have women they want to add me to this couldn't imagine which I never knew but because I know what I want them like no, I don't need you guys they weren't paying me no problem if the food did not let me eat I would drink the Neko I go to sleep I am okay so when I ate food the last one was talking to me I was looking at him he don't have change of time although he was a nice guy he was a nice guy we were talking two days, three days we changed the number we now talk as people in the game was like here I am going to is where you are going to you know this like I am telling people if you are making life if you are living a life partner you have to know if I am going to Legos is this person going to Legos because if you are going to quarter cost this person is going to Legos it will be very difficult I can't live on journey for you and you can't live your own journey for me you see we both knew what we wanted we knew what I want in life is what he wants because he is from a poor background like me too and he had sense the way I did almost this I was planning for myself is what he is planning for himself did he go through the same place yes yes, yes he is from Libya too but he knows the way I did because his connection was very strong that is the problem if you have a connection you wouldn't want to be on route hmm can you hear me Erica can you hear me Erica when he said I should ask you knowing what you went through would you have stayed in Nigeria and probably make it no, me I wouldn't have it is time that I suffer and suffer do what I am enjoying here don't say it again that person that asked that

here since I came to this Europe if I was unable to take it I would say off the back I would on the lighter shirt up on the back I would come back I would come back at the right time like now I don't have documents the documents is difficult for me if I am telling people they will not believe me he is not bringing me, seriously because if you have documents you have to work, you have to do this

idea they say they say a naked If I tell people that the most I'm wearing here, some of them buy it in Africa and bring it here. Now is going to be a sound time. What is it called? What is signed in English F? I don't know. Italy have started writing for me. Summer is what in English. Not rainy season like. Yeah summer. Dry season. It's going to be dry season because they have changed our last week. Last week sun. I bet the manager bring it here. Some people don't know. Please. You can only say that we don't know where it started from. I know where it started from. I can't go to markets and buy them again. I ignore it. It's not possible. Everything I use, I write it down. I have to go through my own writing. Everything that you find there. You don't go to markets and not be bought. You will waste. Next time if I'm writing, I will write you inside. I don't spend money on anything. For those asking, I invest in Nigeria. I'm doing a lot of investment there. My husband too. All my investment is there. Because my kids who come to Africa want it. I don't want them to come as there is no life. They will see if they come here. Because Italian kids here are like Nigerian people. If they come, there is no life. They will not go. And they are not supposed to. So I'm trying to make sure when they will come. There will be no skit of bits. There will be no life here. That one is very, very important. So I'm investing. I am investing. I'm investing. So I'm investing. I am. I want to say thank you so much, Erica. I really appreciate you. I hope to have you here once again. I hope and wish you all the best on your YouTube channel. Like I said, I owe you a trip to Ghana. Or I owe you a trip to Nigeria. I owe you a trip to Ghana. Since you don't want to come back now. It's my responsibility to make sure that you step your foot in Nigeria. I will come back. One day I will come. Thank you. Africa to the world is what we are all yearning for. A better place for Africans to live in. That's all we are asking for. All these things that are happening to the youth of Africa is because the system is actually not helping young Africans to make it in Africa. It's tough. I'm not going to lie. It's tough for young Africans. And this is why I always tell people that let's vote wisely. Let's select visionary leaders. Let's select leaders that actually think about its people. I don't know if you guys watch the video I uploaded today. African leaders in power don't have ideas. And those who have ideas don't have power. So you guys should check out that video. And I believe that whatever that was happening is because of the situation in Africa. That is why a lot of people are passing through the back way to Europe. Which I think it's a great, great struggle. Your final message to the youth of Africa. Your final message to the youth. Just focus. And like how you said, when it comes to voting I'm playing with all that you have placed. Just choose your leaders wisely. Please don't take any money. Or even if you took money from politicians and their policies it's not going to benefit us. Please don't vote for them. Anybody you want to vote for just assess them. Don't let the politicians use us as tools to make money to reach themselves. Honestly if you take money and you vote for somebody that his policies are not going to benefit you or the country or Africa one day you will be accountable for that. Africa is the best place to live. So let's choose our leaders wisely. This problem will stop. Africa is the best place to be and I second that. How many of you think that Africa is the best place to live? If you think Africa is the best place to live just type one. If you think Africa is not the best place to live type two. So we want to see if we are going to get more ones or more tools. So if you think Africa is the best place to live type one if you think Africa is not the best place to live type two. Let's go. I'm giving you all the chance to vote. One one one okay so one is winning somebody say one and two somebody say one and two okay yeah but I mean it's the best place to be but it's not perfect just like everywhere in the world I mean I know that some of the people that even live in the diaspora have stories to share but sometimes they don't want to let us know what is happening because yeah a lot of stories that are happening I think I've been here with you guys for two hours 17 minutes. You don't think I deserve a round of applause man for being here for two hours oh my goodness it's easy once I'm African this is what we have to do and support our continent. Yeah yeah now with negative vibes. It's not always the negative vibes man we need some positivity into the system and that's what we're doing all these things for you guys man I hope you guys enjoy this amazing is it amazing is this amazing? No this is like heart breaking yeah it's heart breaking this is heart breaking but and I hope you know this it is what it is and I hope you know too. So I just want to say if you haven't like the video please can you like the video now and do you have one more question you want to ask feel free and then ask is there anything you want to say I'll be here for five minutes we'll reach every question and also anything that you're going to say that I think it needs to be addressed yeah so let's go if I have five minutes I have five minutes if you have anything to say feel free and say if you have anything to say anything to add it seems Africans believes in election don't sell your voter politician smash the like button smash the like button like the like the video thank you like the video is there anything else remaining if you have any question anything you want to add just feel free and um living the USA for Uganda for good any program to stop illegal migration I have no idea about that maybe we can think of it do you have any do you have any political careers who no me no I said how much did we raise today Maya thanks to the donors so we're able to donate $2,949 we have we've been able to raise $2,949 for Mr. Jerry who is building a resource center in case you don't have money it's okay but whatever you have money feel free and then check out the page a dollar is enough like I always say a dollar is enough I'm not taking the money this I'm not even the one who is organizing this he has nothing to do with my name I feel like what this man has done deserves our support and we all need to come together as Africans to support him I'm not the one who created it the lady who created this account is right here Doreen one I hope I'm mentioning it right I always love to call Doreen one call it but the name is not one call it by the way but yeah this is the GoFundMe page if you can donate I know it sounds like he begging but he needs help and I have to use my platform sometimes we don't even have to let us talk about this man we don't have to let us come here and tell you guys that oh donate a dollar I hate to talk about money myself I hate that doesn't mean that I don't need help but I just don't like the fact that when you talk about money Africans see you as you are begging them for something something I always want to work out for my money but I think brother Jerry needs help and I decided to use my platform to raise money for him leaving Babylon for Liberia in September for good I think this is the time us as Africans should support our teams also in the World Cup you have an awesome initiative about the World Cup can you end with that? yeah the World Cup that is going to play in Qatar because if you look at Africans most of the time we do go for foreign teams but we have to change our mind and believe that our African teams can make it far we can even win the World Cup trust me because we have the material I know some of you might think oh is he crazy or what we have players that can match the Superstars in the world but we don't believe in ourselves so please this is the time we have to believe in our teams regardless your country has called it fight for the World Cup or not just support one of the African countries that called it fight in any kind of way because this is the time the youth wants to enjoy this and have whatsoever we don't ever think of and trust me we can do it it doesn't matter what team in Africa but we have to believe in our African teams and we're playing with the players and the coaches also to do the right thing for us we seek and try the heart breaking or we want to qualify for the next round we want to qualify for so we want to win the World Cup and trust me is possible if we work together as Africans spiritually physically, mentally supporting everything we can do something so please let's support each other I think this is a beautiful message that I've had in a very long time like we can do it let's just believe in ourselves as Africans we can do it so if you all agree with me let's go with that emoji that we are Africans and we are proud of our heritage we're proud of our heritage and we can do it but let's work together as Africans one love can I have this emoji if you have it don't say anything don't say anything I just want to see this emoji in the comments below please don't say anything like I said, don't say anything I just want to see more of the emojis, thank you can we everybody just use the emoji I want to see the emoji flying on the screen that's awesome yeah Black Power Black Power, yes we can yes we can yes we can hi what am I how can I get in touch with you I think you can send a message through my office line look at me as soon as possible I want to say that I love and appreciate each and every one of you thank you so much for staying here with me thank you so much for being here thank you so much for supporting the movement I cannot do anything without you all today we had over 2,000 people watching here at once I know that after finishing this stream definitely going to see that a lot of people tuning and I want to say that I love you and I'm not perfect myself I always say I'm not perfect so if you are watching me and you notice something feel free to send me an email I'm definitely going to read it but if I have to change I'm going to change because this movement that I've carried on my head it's not an easy movement like you guys have no idea it's not you see it took me even the whole of February so much February March I was not uploading videos because I just wanted to go away bro honestly this is a revolution movement this is the time we have to put our tribes, religious things aside and just be as human and as Africans believe in ourselves because this kind of movement is not a rebellion it's a revolution movement we have other Africans doing things on YouTube fine everybody has his own things but this particular movement because anytime me in particular watch your videos honestly I feel very I don't know how to express my feelings and especially if I seen Osman 2 Osman 2 Ray with the vibes and things bro you guys don't know how you make me fall because in the whole world we are the only race that always puts our head down we have no belief in anything that we do and we have to change that mindset we have to change that mindset that mindset the mindset bro needs to change from the top to bottom change the mindset love each other have confidence in each other there might be one or two sellouts African but it is what it is everywhere we have sellout people we have to support each other and believe in Africa and please be honest to ourselves no false life just be an African and be as human beings just feel free we can go far honestly this is the revolution movement that's amazing I just want to tell you guys that you all are amazing and don't stop being an African don't stop supporting an African brother don't stop being proud of where you are coming from I just want to say that I love you guys I actually just started uploading daily so you all should check it out I know I have been away for so long I have over 40 episodes that we are trying to put it out as soon as possible so yeah I might be uploading two videos in the day just to make sure that all these videos are out from the whatever you have to call it I have to get it out so I just want to say thank you so much and I will see you all in the next one my name is Mr. Ghana Baby you are one and only annoying village boy from Ghana I need to sleep and I know you have to sleep too goodbye
