 On behalf of the entire world of my team, on behalf of my brother riding here, Jerry Johnson, I just want to say thank you. I don't know what to say, I get so emotional whenever I see Africans coming together to support one of our own because I believe that when we support ourselves we'll become mighty. So this is one of the examples and I know and believe that we will not just stop here, we'll continue doing this. For no man is an island, we thank you so much and for being real, continue to receive the blessings that you will get. You have to go on doing a good work, yeah? Imagine, 13,000 I hear check, you're bringing me to help this. Through people that support you, people that are praying for you, their thousands I understand, we thank them all. May blessings be on each and every one of them. In the name of the most Jairastapara. I've always been saying that it's a blessing to be from Africa, but I just want to say something. What? It's a blessing to have in my life. This deserves some 10 points, yeah? If you don't know she has a YouTube channel, you all need to go and check it out and know what I'm saying that I'm blessed to have her. Such a hardworking, sweet, beautiful lady. So much for clicking. How are you doing? I hope you are doing amazing. We are in the Gambia, yeah? This is one of the smallest countries in Africa. It's pretty small. It's almost the size of Nairobi. You know what? Check the link in the description, go and subscribe. Can I get like 6,000 new subscribers for my babe? Wow, it's like you're not expecting that. You know what, you're just telling me to be smart. You didn't tell me you want to give me a shout out on your channel. Thank you. You're welcome. Once again, I feel so blessed. You know, I always tell you guys that blessing is not all about having so much money in your account, but blessings is about people that are surrounding you. I mean, some people can be a blessing to your life. The air that you breathe is a blessing. Let me tell you something. I'm saying all this because I feel like I have the best YouTube audience ever. I mean, I know YouTube is a huge platform, but the audience that I have... Oh my God. Thank you. There's so much traffic in Kumase and I just met a fan. So I had to step out of my car just to say hello, you know, but hi. Oh, nice. Can we all give a round of applause for my YouTube audience? Sometimes I look around me and I'll be like, what did I do to deserve such kind of love and support from you guys? Because for me, I'm just being myself. I always say that I'm your one and only annoying village boy from Ghana, but I never knew that you all are going to fall in love with a village boy because on YouTube, you see people living flashy, trying to show off their lifestyle, but I'm not all about that. I'm all about impact. And I love the fact that you guys decided to be part of my journey. You guys decided to be part of the dream that I've always wanted to achieve. I told myself that when I hit a million, I want to turn this channel into what? Charity. So I don't know. You guys have been saying it and I'm all over the place. Just it's all about charity for me. I also want to say a big shout out to Star Property because this is also charity. You see people coming in here creating content. You're not charging a dollar from anybody. So I'm just going to tell you that the link will be in the description. If you want to buy land in here, do so. It's affordable. Where am I going today? I'm going to pram pram. Babe, but I'm going to pram pram with you. You remember what happened? You were there, right? The first day that we went to pram pram, there was this African-American who established an African ancestral wall in pram pram. And listen, he did all that he did over there out of charity. It's affordable to come in here. It's free. It's free of charge. It's always free of charge. That's the whole point. We're not, we're trying to teach our children so you can't ask our children from money. I'm not even talking about the children. I'm talking about like an ordinary citizen or maybe a foreigner coming to the country and want to come and visit the ancestral wall. Oh, it's free to anyone. So I felt like if he is building a resource center out of charity, then we have to support him. He built the whole resource center from his own pocket. So which means that you did all of this out of your own pocket then? I did. And that's why my pocket's a little flat. So we decided to support him and he never knew that you guys would get involved. Can you believe that we raised $13,000? $13,000. See, I wish I have $13,000. Like you guys will never see me on YouTube again. I planned the video. The video had less views, which is 40,000 views, but we still raised $13,000 out of 41,000 views. That can do so much. And round of applause for my YouTube audience once again. So yeah, I'm on my way going there right now to hand over the check to him. Oh, you have my checkbook. Let me bring you a checkbook. She doesn't have my checkbook. Yeah, but we're going right now. So I just want you guys to come along with us. My checkbook is right here. Thank you. I have so much money, man. It's not my money. Somebody's money. So the whole of this week is going to be the people that I promised. We're going to give them their money. The whole of this week. So I'm just going to give this man his money. So charity upon charity. So come along with us. God bless you. With our one and only, hey, groove half, groove half. With our one and only groove half ambassador, he's also the marketing manager for star property and star auto brother. Thank you so much for being amazing, man. This guy has been support. I don't even know. Even Trudy came to tell me that even his phone has mine. I'm like, bro, please, that's some, you know what I mean, man. I'm not big mental. Hey, bro. So you're going to come along with us. Okay. And I just want you all to go check out his groove half YouTube channel. He sings over there. I don't know. He wants to be a musician. So yeah, let's just go. And when we get there, we'll get back to you all. See Mr. Jerry Johnson. We're actually driving on the motorway. And this is one of the products of Dr. Carmen. This road has been in existence for over 50 years, and it's still strong, man. I remember when Carmen Kuma did this, I think the entire country were definitely against Carmen Kuma for wasting money. But believe me, I think Carmen Kuma was a visionary. Listen, do you know who Dr. Carmen Kuma is? Let me know in the comment section what you think about Dr. Carmen Kuma. I mean, all insightful Dr. Carmen Kuma. After all that you've read about him, things that he did during his time. You come from one of my favorite places to be in Ghana. This place is a town, and I love the fact that whenever you come in here, even though the sun will be shining, but you still get a chance to enjoy the sea breeze. I wish the government can do something about the road. The only challenge of coming in here is the traffic. Listen, if we can eradicate the traffic from Accra to Pampram, I would definitely buy a house in here. And I know and believe that so many of you will also love to buy houses in here. This place is super cool, man. Listen, the air that you breathe in here is even different from the air that you're going to breathe in in Accra. But this is why you, Pampram, you don't know why I'm here. Listen, we gotta go and give him his money so that we'll be able to go back home. Let's go. This is your coconut spool, and it helps you take everything out. You see? Taking everything out. It takes everything out, of course. Watch my videos. Watch my videos. I'm from the U.S. I'm from Minnesota. Oh, wow. Nice to see you. I know you're from Accra. You know I'm from Accra. You're going somewhere or you're just dropping in here? Well, I'm just dropping in here. I'm building in Pampram area, waiting down here. Oh, really? Oh, yeah. It's really nice meeting you. Thank you. I love to see you. You're staying here, right? Most of you guys are married now or you're still engaged? You're still engaged. It's very simple. She's just waiting for you. This beautiful woman. What are you waiting for? Make up your mind, y'all. Right, right. Sure, right? Yeah. It's Gavi. He's coming through on the wall. But, hey, I don't know why people are saying I look like Marcus Gavi. Do you think I look like Marcus Gavi? Leave a comment and let me know. That's super crazy. I'm so glad there is mango here, and it's ripe. I'll definitely go back home with mango today. You don't need to be thankful I am at my age to be a hero and to experience this before I die. I get to experience freedom. I get to experience supreme black love. I get to feel what sisterhood feels like without resentment and envy and cattiness. You know, I get to hear sister say, what can I get for you? How are you? I was good. Good to see you. Oh, good to see you again. Oh, wow. You look so pretty. What the? Thank you, honey, for making my dream come true. See, you've been laughing last night at your wedding situation with your sister. With my sister. I have that feeling and also knowing that you're going to be someone's mother. I'm like, wow, I hope. Oh, the sound of a baby, all right, but let's just wait and see. Knowing that you're going to be somebody's mother. Someone has said that before. Is that why you have Jerry in your name? No, that came before we knew about him. Yeah, no, someone has said that. I guess, especially, I guess when I put the smoker. Exactly, exactly, exactly. It's good to see you. So welcome, good to see you. Thank you. Sorry for the long drive, but you know, come and traffic. What can we say? I think it's Pampram and traffic. How is everything? First of all, I want to say thank you so much for introducing me to Brother Jerry. And, you know, because of you, that's why I came to Pampram for the first time. And when I came in here, I got to know what this brother is doing. I actually did not know that he built this whole wall, built a resource center out of his own pocket. Even the people that come in here, he doesn't charge them anything. It really touched my heart. And I feel like with the audience that I have, we're going to put our hands together to raise funds for him. We raised $13,000, but for now, the amount that he sent to me, that I have in my account right now, is $12,000. The rest, so which means the next time when I'm coming here, I want to make sure I want to see that we've seen progress. And I know and believe that I'll bring the $8,000 when I'm coming back next time. So if you're watching this video, we're still not done. I want to say this over and over again. We're still not done. You've seen it. I'm here. I'm giving him the money. Listen, I just want to give it to you before I start talking. So on behalf of my YouTube audience, we say that this is your $12,000. Thank you. I mean, I almost don't know what to say, but thank you everyone in the- I can't be losing the check. You see, I'm nervous. I don't even know what to say other than, thank you so much, Wodemire and all your followers, because really this reflects the work you've done. Because not anyone can just come and do a go fund me, and people respond this way. So this is not just, you know, the work I've done is fairly, you know, I mean, it's good work, but he is the one who had to put the work in. He's even tired today to build up the kind of trust among the audience and among the people about Africa. I mean, it's so powerful. So many people are feeling so empowered. I mean, I said it last time and I mean it even more. So what you really see here is a result of Wodemire's work and rewarding us for trying to continue to do the right thing. So I just want to thank you and all your work. I want congratulations also on your sisters wedding, which was a very lovely thing to watch. Thank you. And of course, Sister Vera, who as I said last time has brought so much beautiful spirit, energy and intelligence. I think hopefully you all get to know one day the depth of this sister's thinking and the scope of her work. And so thank you everybody out there. And you'll see very soon a lot more progress because we'll put this to work very, very quickly. So thanks. I would say thank you to you for opening your home to so many people coming in here without asking them to pay you a dollar. And I wish we can do better. You know, trust me, I wish we can do better. This is the year of charity I've declared on my channel. I never knew that somebody's actually doing the charity. You know, years ago I'm declaring 2022 as a year of charity, but since you started building this, it's been the year of charity for you every single year. And as I said before, we don't always see it as charity. We see it as the work that has to be done, you know. So if it's charity, it's something that we have to do to build, you know. So to me, it's just our work. I want to say thank you. And Mama Vera, you want to say something before I go? I just want to thank everybody, you know, from the donations of $5 to the donations of $5,000, all of them are important. I want to thank the people in the community who have done, all that they have done to support Jerry over the years. This isn't just an initiative of the last 90 days, people have supported Jerry over the years. So we all want to throw our support behind him to help him to expand his resource center and get it finished. And we are asking for donations of books and other things that you have in your houses, bring them and let us know. Because so many of you have wonderful books and things that get thrown out when your parents and grandparents died. So let's think in terms of keeping that for posterity. And thank you so very much everybody from the bottom of my heart. Thank you so much for making this dream come true for me and for Jerry. Thank you. But we did a very powerful video. And now I believe that you're a star now. Yes, sir. Ah, do people say, oh, is that on to Vera? Yes, they do. Oh, wow. Mama Vera. Mama Vera. Dude, yes, they do. Yes, they do. Ah, it's awesome meeting you again. Happy for all the support we've gotten, the people who have chipped in. We're extremely pleased, extremely pleased. This part really, with the 13,000, you'll be surprised how far we'll go with that. Because I mean, this and the one below will actually be functional. Because, you know, a lot of, as you can see, a lot has already been done. So we really, really appreciate it. How long have you been here? Oh, me. I've been here since 2003. For what you choose Ghana? What would mean? One of my friends actually came here to live and I came to visit her. And I say, Ghana chills me. I didn't choose Ghana. Because we both love Ethiopia. Be rust of people, you know? But when I came in this place, something called me. I think it's the calmness of Ghana. The calmness of the people, you know? And the people that look like me, black like me. So I don't look odd. I don't look indifferent. Yeah? And I can go anywhere. You're a rasta fairy. I am. Rasta is one of my biggest teachers. Most of us come through Christianity, don't we, through our parents. But when you begin to know yourself, Rasta might know myself, you know? Being brought up in the UK. From Jamaica parents, you know? Yeah, so Rasta bring me home too. Can't make me know, you know? You are an African. If your skin is a black man, like it or like it not, you are an African. No matter where you born and come from. Do you agree with that? Of course, 100%. But I think you guys forgot about us. We never forgot you. What do you mean by we forgot about you? Well, I think they translated slavery. Um. Calls so much up evil. And we know why we're born in Europe. Once you start to identify yourself, you cannot leave the motherland out. Because that's your roots. When we come home, you guys, I don't remember us, you know? But we feel you in our DNA. In our bones, you know? And some of us are drawn. We cannot stay no money. How children can't hold us. We have to come back to our ancestral land. That's my view. It's deep, isn't it? Very deep. And there are so many people that are avoiding the ancestral land. What are you going to tell them? I'm going to say, you can live anywhere on the planet because we have a right to live anywhere on the planet. But do not deny yourself. If you are a black man, no matter where you are in the world, your ancestral roots is from Mama Africa. Don't deny who you are. When you begin to accept who you are, embrace who you are more, you live everywhere and anywhere you want to. Because this planet belongs to all of us. You understand? I want to say thank you so much for talking to me. And you too for talking to me because I hear a lot about you. Really? I see videos about you. I want to thank you for what you're doing here at the ancestral wall. You and your team. Yeah? For no man is an island. We thank you so much. And for being real, continue to receive the blessings that you are. You will get. You have to go on doing a good work. Yeah? Imagine, 13,000 a year check, you're bringing to heart this. Through people that support you, people that are praying for you, their thousands, I understand. Yeah. We thank them all. May blessings be on each and every one of them. Amen. In the name of the most I jarastapara. What's your name? Mansa Musa. Mansa Musa? You see now and I know, do you know that you're the richest man who ever lived? And you are still living. You are a living legend. Mansa Musa. Why you give them African names? That's beautiful. Even their hairstyle. Wow. Yes. What will you inspire that? Well, we are African, so we have to represent ourselves and nobody else. We have to build systems that inspire living as Africans. Be comfortable living as Africans. You see. So it doesn't come cheap. It doesn't come cheap. There's always a price to pay for, you know, wanting to live as an African, like a true or pure African. I mean, I think the colonizers did a great job. Oh, yeah, they did. Making us feel like when we put on heads like this, right, funeral or something. That place is beautiful, right? Thank you. You have a channel too, right? Yes. What's the name of your channel? Okay, it's blessed with Horayshivi. Is it with the kids? Is the channel the kids? No, no, no, no. Maybe, maybe as a girl, you know, I would. I used to change one thing. Ghana, what will it be? The systems. What system is that? You know everything. The education, health, everything. Because the education is what actually fills them the mentality of the people. So if the language is not the language that is from your soul, language that is from your soul, language that inspires your understanding, then everything else you are being taught is a mix. That is why we have all the degrees, but we don't really solve any problem. When we look around you, we have engineers. We have every, all the titles in the world, but nothing yourselves. So it goes deep into, I mean exposing the systems that we have. We are the systems and the systems are what builds a nation, what builds a people, what makes the continent what it is. Police people, this is the guy. When we're talking about African men don't have integrity or you can't trust them. I met him today. We talked on the street. He didn't even ask my name, but he trusted me enough to come here to see what is going on. That's a guy, that's a man who when he talks, you know he talks what he means. So I appreciate you so much. Hi. I appreciate what you're doing. Thank you. Thank you. I am so thankful to you for propagating and spreading words about Africa. Thank you. I feel comfortable traveling along Africa now because you know the stuff they tell us we read in history books are not what it is once it starts to come. So, this is wonderful. Thank you. I said since you started, I started watching your podcast and your what's it called? Videos. Videos and all that. I started claiming Nigeria. I started being African because that's what we need to be your generation especially because we are old now but you guys are the future of Africa and if we are still dividing us being this or that or that nothing's going to happen. So it's nice that that is becoming popular. You know when I met her she said she has a project. So after the donation I decided to pass through just to come and check the project myself. But listen, let me tell you something. This is so huge and I just want to say congratulations but you know from Ghana right? No. Wow. And you are building in Ghana? Yes. Well really inspire that. I was born and bred in Nigeria grew up in Lagos, heart of Lagos. My forefathers were legosians so I've done it I've lived it and all that I'm retired now so I'm looking for a quiet place to settle in and I visited here five years ago I'm like oh I can do this. And so I visited again and again and finally last year I'm like okay I think this would be it for me. I can see that you are an African to the core. I am. I love Africa. Definitely have a message for Africans watching us right now. They understand that some of us are now ready to do this but home is where we belong home is where we value it. The beauty of being here is you wake up in the morning and you see people who look like you who share your aspirations who share your goals and dreams who will encourage you not people who put you down or tell you you cannot be this or you can't do that and I think that is beautiful and we're so blessed here because we have everything. Nature, wake up in the morning and you see you know all the things that white people think they have when you come here and it's free it's all over you know. It's nature. Yeah people are so welcome in a respectful family this is family you don't have to be blanched to be related in Africa especially. When I met you you said you were in America initially what are you doing in there? I retired as an educator. Wow. Yes. So I guess you all after retirement you need to come back home? Yes. And people want to okay so what she clarified that it sounds that people don't want to come home. People want to come home but a lot of us you asked me as a warrant type building in Nigeria you know how many houses I could have owned in Nigeria but people are not trustworthy. People take advantage of she's there she doesn't know what she's doing he's there and you know in the stories so it's not that people don't want to come but some have been born so many times and then the system too is bad trying to get light here it's the struggle trying to get water here it's you know everything is just so and coming from the western world you don't go through all this just a phone call and they come it's better all come tell you exactly what it is they can do you can't do what this story needs to do but you come here they give you the running around you drive them they don't even so it's frustrating it is very frustrating so again young people are no precious but you guys don't have to change this we failed you we did because we went abroad left here went abroad for better life to give our children better life which we did but we didn't take care of what we needed to take care of here because we were taking care of you know there so young people are coming I've traveled around you'll read I've seen young people allowed to move them back which is good but they have to be allowed in it's one thing to arrive physically it's another thing to be allowed in to understand to get jobs to know what's happening that makes sense makes a lot of sense this is wonderful thank you thank you so much I mean truly I wish you both long, long, long life together and please invite me to your wedding I will fly in I'm not putting pressure on you this has been a while now that you got a mind made up right tell him why he smiling at you tell him what you want man thank you thank you all right you're blessed you both you're blessed you too thank you
