Hi Lamarana. Good to see you back! As you know, I am American. But, I totally agree. The Gambian Government shouldn’t allow any foreign persons to own land unless they’ve lived in the country for quite some time, or the structure is already on the land, or both. The Gambia is just too small to accommodate everyone. So, the citizens should always come first! Just my opinion.
Very well spoken. Don't even give him any other land in The Gambia. Kick him out again. Africans can't do that in Europe or China or any other part of the world.
The Gambia and those of African decent should have rights to the land first. Not the Lebanese, Indians, not the European, not the Chinese. I as one of African decent can not go to China and own property. You are very knowledgeable, need to share with the whole African community. This is not just a Gambia problem. This is a Kenyan problem, a Namibia problem.
My family is moving to Gambia from the US. My lineage has been traced to Mandinka from Senegal and we plan to come and establish my family there. I will bring my nonprofit and serve the Gambia as part of the community. A birth center i know will benefit my sisters and brothers in Gambia. I hate that people want to come "change" Gambia. We want to join Gambia. My children will marry Gambian Allah knows best. It's sad that we are not as welcome do to what some greedy people have done. I had no idea about the 50x50 rule. Its still
The Gambian people or government have to be realistic. Get these foreigners out and fight for you country. The people first then visitors second. Preserve your people or be conquered.
Africa should be for Africans. If the continent were United with one military and one currency, we could build a nation strong enough to secure us all. We could develop rail systems to facilitate trade and the transfer of goods all over the continent. We all want to be proud of the country that we come from but nationalism has always hurt Africans because it makes us easier to control. Problems like this wouldn’t exist with a United States of Africa. We are much stronger together than we could ever be on our own✊🏿
There is a real estate law in the US that says, "use it or lose it." How can he have bought this land so many years ago and not have developed it any way? He wants to return now that Gambia is developing, and the value of the land has increased, but he has done nothing to aid in its development.
I have been watching all of your contents you are a very wise young man my daughter spoke to you on the phone about business opportunities in The Gambia hopefully we can meet up sooner then later
I feel for you and your anguish.. First and foremost, you would need to visit Gambia's provinces, preach to the local chiefs and land owners... Also write to your national government to here mark a policy on land acquisition. The problem with Gambia and the rest of Africa is we are quick to sell out at the smell of money. We are not nationalistic, nor have affinity or understandings of race affinity. Money corrupt absolutely.
No one is saying that they should not keep the land but at the end the day who sold them the land is accountable and white people come and buy land they offered it even as we talk today it is not by force and if all foriegners left this country what would happen here there will be no business here and everyone would suffer you have to be realistic millions of people live in all different countries all over the world and live there lives peacefully and three are problems with ownership gpd bless gambia.
You can have a business in China as an African.The laws in China do not affect business.The thing you can not do is that you can,t own land or property in China.
If I am a diasporia and my dna is gambian due to my ancestors being sold into slavery. Would you accept me would you allow me if I am just returning to buy land fir agriculture or farming. Do you know that returning the money stays in the gambia with the diaspora whereas others take the money out of gambia. This case us a civil matter the police should never involved
Please yes your ancestry was enslave but you belong to where ever you came from. YOu are no longer African. Everybodies ancestors come from somewhere. Can a five generation irish american go to irland and claim anything over there? No. I am Caribbean the way the diaspora talk about going to Africa is very disturbing to me at times. When i came to america every one expect me to assimilate and to behave like american but the diaspora act almost like those african countries owe them something. If you go to africa know tht you gonna be an immigrant and you should assimilate, dont expect them to assimilate for you, you are the minority there. You should speak their language not the other way around. Americans are always asking people to speak english even when they are the foreigners in those people's contries. Furthermore Land is the most important thing for a country and its people. Family goes to war with other family for land. The diaspora needs to be careful going to different country buying land not knowing the stories behind that land the custums, the norms the languages and push their weight around. Resentment will start building and it will not turn out well. Just like in America Black Americans have resentment against other black immigrants because they feel disrespected at times the same thing will start to happen when there is a big amount of foreigners going over there and taking over some of these peeople's land. Please Dont become another colonizer in black face.
@@navytanutrof1823 Yes Irish Scottish Italian Chinese Greek, race on the planet they all live and breath loyalty and allegiance to their respective countries. Self hate breeds contempt and a lack of understanding that divides equals eternal destruction. I wonder if its going to take another 500 years before this nonsense is done with and the evil that comes with the old bate and switch is truly understood. I'm rolling my eyes as I'm amazed at the lack of thinking. Are you really saying this because you thought about the words you uttered and you actually came up with this or did you hear someone say it and you just ran with this analogy despite the fact it is right in front of your eyes to see and ears to hear that this is a global practice..I think I'm just going to sit aside and watch this one play out
@@sarahthompson1372 lol of course i thought about this myself. As i said i am an immigrant in America and i am a very good observer. I know the sentiment of African American concerning how they feel disrespected by other Blacks coming from other countries. A lot of them are resentful with reason, because everything they fight for, other immigrants benefits from them more cause most immigrants, not all. who made it to the US are middle class where ever they came from, cause in order to travel one must have means and connections. This means that they come to the US better prepared and a lot of them are in a better position to take advantage of some of the benefits given by the US. Imagine AA with US money go to some of those countries in africa with the mentality of American which is direct, abresive and only focus on making money. We have no clue the norms of those countries we have to be careful how we go there. I am from Haiti, land is a big issue there, you can have land that was left for you for generations and some rich person just built a house on it especially if you are not around, and guess what, you produced papers they produced fake papers as well.I can imagine a black market will emerge in the Gambia since so many AA wants to buy land there but that land may be sold illegally. All i am saying is if you want to go there, at least travel there a few times and dont just stay in a 5 star hotel, go and try to learn about the culture and try to learn a bit of the language, where ever in Africa you are trying to go remember you are not trying to go to give them something, Africa has been around for ever it is not gonna go away if we dont go there lol. We want tto go there because we are tired of America so let's not bring America there with us.
Before jumping into conclusions how about we wait and see what will be the turn out.I don’t think In my wildest dream that if this Gambians got there properties and got legit documents to prove it.I have no doubt in my mine that they will loose what really belongs to them.Especially the fact that they Gambians too.I don’t think they will lose it this easy.
They just might because this president is a puppet for the oppressors. Caucasians control Gambia and they don't like the last president but he was a Pan africanist and was against oppressive caucasians.
@@Y12354 you talk a load of shit if a gambian buys land in Europe its theirs for life but because its a white person owns the land and had proof what can u do it doesn't matter how long ago it was purchased would u be acting like this if it was a gambian that bought this there would be blue murder .
@@janetrutherford8568 We African Americans are not Europeans.. we are Africans. We are prisoners of war from tribal wars. Africa land is our land as well. Alot of Gambians were watching how much land we were buying while these caucasians are putting a master plot together for both of us... we are allies not just diasporans... black people are in trouble as a whole.. but we suffer from tribalism and caucasians suffer from racism but racism will always beat tribalism, so we got to put our race first first.. like white people. Allah created us in tribes, but if you looked at the white people you wouldn't know that because they identify by race not tribe.. wake up!!
🤨... 😡😡Muzungus should NOT be allowed to purchase not one ounce of land. NOT ONE OUNCE. You know what an ounce is. I wouldn’t allow those ppl to rent either. The African Diasporans are entitled to come back home to Africa and purchase land just like the Gambians born and raised in The Gambia 🇬🇲. It should be no different. ALL African land should be locked 🔒 down for Africans & African Diasporans ONLY! PERIOD! ENOUGH IS ENOUGH!!!
Just be realistic, suppose Europe and the USA was to say the same about black people. There should be a limit on the size of land a none Gambian can own weather the person is black or white. All over Africa and the Caribbean big plots of land is been given to the Chinese. Until we can start building our own infrastructure this will keep happening.
We stand with our brothers and sisters in The Gambia 🇬🇲
