They don't really graso wht we mean when we talk about going back to Africa. We gotta come with skills and resources. So we can start producing off rip.
So You Want To Go Back To Africa? Here Is Your Chance :sa1:

You think because someone smiled at you at the airport you discovered a continent wide inferiority complex.
The irony is they probably dont have a complex because of your arrogance towards them...
No lol, who do you take me for.
I can sympathize with these people. I often think about moving away to Africa.
I only recent learned that no African nations grant citizenship to diasporans. I was under the impression that Ghana was one such nation, but came to find out that that is not true. What some African governments do is sell land to diasporans, which apparently doesn't make you a citizen of the country in which the land is located.
I can't see them granting citizenship to large swaths of us. At best, I can envision a future where Africa establishes centers of trade and commerce with AAs and other diasporans.

That's why AAs need to take advantage of the Eco Atlantic City that is currently under constructions in Lagos because you know damn well the cacs, Chinese and Lebanese are gonna jump on that. That city is gonna be almost the size of Manhattan with investors from everywhere,

The guys who've never left want to leave and go elsewhere. But the ones who've been outside the country can't wait to get back and settle down in Africa. The grind is not as exhausting as the states. A bunch of people get money and move back to Africa. Exactly a scenario the move back to Africa AAs should have. Comparatively everything is cheaper and economies and investment opportunities are emerging. One idea I'd give you guys is get the skills that allow you to work for multi national. You get paid us rate salaries to live in a place that everything is a third the price it is in the states.
About the asylum and dual citizenship to all countries. You won't get dual citizenship to all countries. But I'm pretty sure you can travel and live in any country for a long time without the need for it. I've rarely heard people getting deported unless they're doing illegal stuff.

It will happen. Very soon.
Bout the only people it makes sense for unless you are highly skilled
I'm going to guess quality electricity, internet, gas, etc cost more as well as imported items like macbooks and coke.
This is in direct conflict with the "help Africa" types
Not looking to good over the next decade

Also it's just such a different environment. I know they call the states the land of the free.. but I mean in the states you need a permit for everything.

Macbooks at the exchange rate at 700 dollars.
I pay 40 dollars for 4G wireless Internet unlimited plus television and phone.
Electricity you pay with tokens. Reup when you feel like. Bill is around 20 to 30 dollars a month max.
By gas you meant heating or cooking? It's good weather here. You never need heating for the house. And for cooking gas something worth 21 dollars last half the year.
And coke you meant the soda? 2 litres is a dollar fifty.
As far as the having money or skill. I'd recommend it. The guys who work for the multi nationals sometimes it's non profits and other vehicles that might be doing good. Really depends on the company but there are many expatriates.
And I think economies are growing. Kenya for instance just found oil. Is still building infrastructure and technology. Real estate still coming up and an emerging middle class. So opportunities are there. There's land to farm and things are not saturated yet or over inflated
