 Happy new month to each and everyone. I know most of you will be like oh it's the mid of the month. Why are you saying happy new month? I mean my new month starts today because a lot has been going on with me and I'm even wearing white today because it's more like you want you know it's more like a victorious moment for me you know um my mom came to visit me and she did not come to visit me because she wants to come and enjoy life. She came to visit me because she couldn't see properly you know so I had to figure it out what am I going to do to make my mom see once again I mean she has grandchildren but she can't see them even my sister's wedding she couldn't see whatever that was going on and that was really bothering me a lot so I wanted to fly her to Namibia because I did a video on Dr. Indumi I don't know if most of you saw that video you know you come somewhere you come after you have done your surgery and then I go around you find this woman who came who couldn't see anything she's sitting down there eating fish and taking out all the bones death many things you that you get doctor now that I can see I'm going to work on my field doctor now that I can see I'm going to see my grandchildren doctor now that I can see my pension money nobody will take my pension money I will see my pension money now this happiness it it just fuels you to keep on going back so I felt like this woman could do the magic and she told me that you Maya you don't need to come all the way to Namibia my classmates is actually in Ghana you see I keep on telling you the guys that I'm the African connector but I never knew that myself would be a beneficiary to the one the connection Dr. Indumi introduced the doctor in Ghana now she can see yes hi so can you see this hand ah and the rest is history my mom can see once again can you guys give me music because I just want to dance with you oh my goodness I hope you all enjoy the music and dance right the music is so important during storytelling this is why it's so difficult for youtubers to choose the right music for you guys I mean sometimes you might be watching a video and you feel so emotional sometimes some of the songs that we even use in our videos can break you and you might even feel like you are with us whilst filming the video this is why I recommend Epidemic Sound to each and every youtuber out there I think I finally exposed myself because this has been my secret in my youtube videos for all the time that I've spent on youtube and I don't want you to be left out so we check out the link in the description you're going to see the promo code whatamaya50 use the promo code and have 50 discount on your annual subscription of Epidemic Sound and not just that the first 30 days is also going to be free for you which means you have one year one month 50 subscription from your favorite village boy whatamaya now that my mom can see I can happily continue my Africa to the world project which is changing the narrative of Africa one country at a time so it's time to go to Zimbabwe but I had to pass through Namibia you might be like you've been to Namibia why are you going back yes I've been there but don't forget that I promise the people of Namibia that I'm going to build them a mobile clinic so if I were to change anything really is access to health facilities even if it's just a mobile clinic I've been mobilizing a couple of people to get a mobile clinic I haven't gotten much but hopefully that is really what I would want to get it is something that you really want to do yes that's something that I really want to do because it's not only my village the Angolan people also come for the clinic so we love to build a clinic for the people so it's like 100,000 Namibian dollars which is roughly 10,000 USD yeah yeah so I'm gonna take that upon myself I'm gonna build the clinic is it a what kind of clinic you want to build so I did you would like a mobile clinic a mobile clinic but if it's not mobile we can just have the building stationed where the health professionals can have a place because right now when the health people come to my village they stand under a tree for immunization people stand under a tree there is no clinic or structure so that would really really really really change things in my village and I'm a man of my words even though there are a bit of challenges that are happening but I have to go get the visa so that I'll be able to go to Namibia once again since I'm heading to the southern Africa just to go and see how we'll be able to start a project before I get out of Namibia once again but hey the High Commissioner from Namibia to Ghana I think she adores me when everybody in there adores me because they've seen the work that we've done before it's by force to consume made in Africa product no that's what we need to do we need to yes I always say we need to consume what we produce so we are just advocating for the same philosophy and I was so happy the fact that you guys imported made in Namibian beef to Ghana when I saw the news I was like yes what really inspired that well as I said a couple of days ago what inspired us is the Pan-African spirit that's the ideology they drove the founders of the organization of African unity that following political independence the second stage of emancipation to should start and that is economic emancipation Africa is a continent that is well in doubt with natural and mineral resources my deputy prime minister and minister of international relations always say Africa is rich but Africans are poor which means all we need to do is to change the mentality we must get value to what we have and we must take an interest to what we produce I'm just hoping that a Namibian businessman will be inspired so that he will come and take the ship out of the cocoa everything they take it to Namibia but you know I think what I went to Namibia I realized that meat is so affordable in Namibia but in Ghana not everyone can afford so doesn't mean that like the meat is going to be affordable in the essence it's getting imported from Namibia well I will leave that to the importer but I'm sure you want to make sure that everybody in Namibia who want to taste Namibian in Ghana who want to taste Namibian beef or meat because beef the cow has so many parts you may go for a lamb steak if you don't want the lamb steak you may also go for the tribe you know and all that before I leave you what is your message for Africans the message for Africans is that now that we have the African continental free trade area we must put life into that agreement by trading among ourselves by increasing intra-african so that we can benefit from our resources especially the SMEs which are driven by young women the AFTC is an institution that exists already yes I mean it's been resistance for almost two years now two years now do you think it's really playing that role that is supposed to play I think it will it's a process the good thing is that we have all signed onto it it's already in an achievement for the past year the senior officials have been negotiating to put various protocol in place so that when we begin to trade in NS we do it as we have agreed and everybody benefits the videos from Namibia what happened they didn't have any effects in here yeah they did because that after that actually we've been getting a lot of applications not these applications people wanted to go into Namibia because a lot of people don't really know much about Namibia some probably never even heard of it so when they watched the videos we got a couple of them but no we are haters of what the man you're from youtube we're so surprised and impressed like in such a country in Namibia that's like more like Dubai yeah personally I get shocked when I go to certain countries and I see the hidden gem of those countries like Namibia really shocked me you're surprised oh my god Namibia every video that I did from Namibia came from my heart I did not fake anything and I go there and I'm like what what made you to actually want to go to Namibia like what made you just decide that you did some research on Namibia no no I've never done any research about any African country it's actually my goal to travel every African country so it was time for me to go to Namibia but I was not expecting what I saw when I went to Namibia you see and now I feel like going back even the village is in Namibia what exactly were you expecting when you got like you know before you so when we go to certain countries it's so difficult to bring the beauty out of that country because okay we say Africa is beautiful but some countries I feel like the people deserve better in terms of development of all of that so when I went to Namibia would you ever believe if I tell you that this is my favorite place in the entire Namibia I was not expecting to see an African country that developed yeah don't get me wrong I mean for some countries that we go we struggle to bring the positive image out we struggle but Namibia everywhere we passed there was a positive image everywhere and imagine this is a country that just came independently in 1990 you see and I I met Namibians that were complaining about Namibia you know one thing that I'm telling people you only appreciate your country when you go out thank you when you visit other African countries like that when you go out thank you and I think the country that people is to know that also Kenya like the people of Kenya complains a lot about Kenya I don't like you guys I feel like you don't even know what you have no they don't no honestly like we do really get a lot Namibians complain bitterly but I always tell these people you can travel and see many exposure exposure is very very important thank you you need to go thank you the right the right because we also have this perception of people like you know wanted to go to you I'm living in Africa I mean in Europe for so many years so I know what's there so you get people wanted to live in Africa to go to Europe enough of greener pasture and all that you call there and nothing you do three four five jobs for you to actually get but and there's so so many opportunities in Africa you can do so much opportunities are there I think I think it's more like we need to educate our own people yes and the politicians are also not trying for us and they are educating us to just themselves and their families I'll keep on sending the trip whether they like it or not I'm not a big fan of competitions but I love them and I'm coming to Namibia and I believe that this time around I'm going to meet the president of the country I just love the fact that Namibians really appreciate the work that I do listen all I did was to come with my passport and the visa is right in here I'm going to Namibia once again they gave me a long-term visa but I couldn't enter Namibia and it inspired and I came back for another one but this time around I'm going to make it happen because I just want to go to Namibia and enjoy Kapaana thank you well all what I'm saying is Africans we need to listen to this guy whatever he's saying I am so grateful I didn't know there was a hidden Africa this guy has exposed Africa to everybody we didn't know Akra is beautiful like this this guy has been showing the beautiful side of Africa and I lived in the UK for 32 years whoa I tell you I was only watching the miserable side of Africa where these charity people used to get money from to we are from Europe they go and beg and get money but this guy told us that Africa is not like that Africa is not that cool you know so what can I say I will advise everybody to watch your videos listen to your messages and then look back to this rich country rich continent that we all come together and build it wow we have to build Africa together yes we can build it we don't have to wait for someone to build Africa for us I'm preparing to come back soon so we are waiting for you somebody came from Canada asked me are you what the Maya because they tell you what the Maya is a race you know they say are you what the Maya are doing because they know you you know they it's like you know they think everybody you know is who the Maya you see so I'm so very happy you know and I'm so proud of you everything you are doing you know it's very very very good thank you very wonderful thank you yeah I want to see you you know since like three to four years you know ago but I can't even talk we couldn't see you I'm so very happy you know you just make my journey oh yeah yeah are you going back to Togo today yeah I'm going back today oh wow oh it feels so good to be back again on the camera it's been one good man

go together you want to say hello to auntie maki auntie maki hi I'm Manga that auntie maki say hi hi auntie how are you doing now I'm good you're good I love your shit all right so come with me let's go that I should have seen you I should comb my hair see African mom oh he's checking all the details I like your hair yeah that's right I'm sorry he is Africa's most influential youtuber but he also describes himself as that annoying village boy Wudemaya is my guest Wudemaya Niha Niha coffee how are you man I'm good how are you a day like my name it's good to have you here why do you call yourself an annoying village boy I know I'm annoying I shout a lot whenever I'm on camera and I don't want you to come and comment and say who is that annoying boy so I need to just describe myself before you leave that as a comment what's the mission to change the narrative of about Africa I mean listen I want to tell you this I was based in China and the reason why I left Ghana because I told you can never make it in Africa and when I went to China the things that I was seeing the things that I was hearing people just looking down upon my upon me because I'm coming from Africa I feel like if Africa becomes stronger if Africa becomes okay we'll be respected out there was it in your face would they tell you directly what was the kind of crazy thing to come on even sometimes you're going to look for a job they'll tell you don't look like Obama so I'm sorry we're not gonna give you the job that's when they need a black person but a black person should not be as dark as what am I you were too dark too dark for a job that the description is black people so imagine the ones that they would say no black people are allowed I mean you might be in a train and nobody want to sit beside you you might be in an office and your own colleagues will be like why are you here so all the time you're feeling free I was living a language you understood what they're saying very fluid I don't know I wish a Chinese person is here would have switched the conversation right now it is really a busy day for me since it's my last day in the country so I had to do all my meetings the same day and my mom had to come along with me have you heard of an African continental free trade area this was the dream of Carmen Krumah and was implemented by the current African Union with the aim of Africans trading among themselves and I think this is a good idea but only if you're ready to implement it underground but not just on paper let me tell you something when I was moving around with my mom she kept on saying one thing oh my goodness when I go back home I'll have a lot of stories to tell how come all these buildings are super tall because in our village you will never find a tall building so she's gonna go back home and she's definitely going to tell a lot of people that finally I saw tall buildings in the city center of Accra you know the independent square my mama has never been there so I decided to take her there for the first time and I could see joy on her face when she stepped there for the first time the first time your first time I just want to tell each and every one of you if your both parents are alive be grateful if one of your parents is still alive care about them show them love because this is more like they are harvest you know they give birth to you it's time for you to take care of them and they feel so proud knowing that their sons or daughters are taking care of them this would definitely be my advice to each and every one of you first time I'm proud of you too you're proud that you're an independent square hey then you've made it to life you've made it to life a day will spend with my mom and I would love to do this over and over again and I hope this
