- First producer of cocoa in the world, Côte d'Ivoire is the richest country in West Africa; however, the infrastructures are in a sorry state; aboard his truck, Yakou takes between eight and 10 hours to reach the isolated villages.

When you think your life is tough then you see struggles like this it humbles you. It makes you realize that you don't have it that bad.
in every situation we must always tank God

🙏🙌👍
Maybe but still doesnt fix your problem as sich life caises you stress.
Americans are strong believers of god.
I'm poor no money no job I'm on section 8 DHA
What a legend that road fixer is! Inspiration springs from the most remarkable places!
I was born and raised in Uganda before moving 10 years to Algeria then now in USA. I miss this sense of community in Africa. I’ve seen many sick, depressed or anxious millionaires here in USA. I often compare the happy Africans in their communities with the depressed rich people here with about everything yet no community as everyone sticks to their lane.
this is more of rationalization than reality I would prefer the problems of the rich anyday
@@bonifacemakongo3660 easy to dismiss or say that until you live their depressed life.Suicide levels are higher in Japan,USA or Europe than in Africa.
@@bonifacemakongo3660 it’s just because you’re broke or poor, that’s why you talk like that. I deal with some real millionaires and I know how sad they are compared to many peasant farmers I meet when I take missionary trips.
@@pietrojenkins6901 it’s hard to explain to him, I don’t think he will ever get it. I’ve lived in both sides, I would rather be a peasant with a backyard garden in a humble village, void of pollution and easy access to organic foods straight from the garden.
The more money you have, the more problems follow. Give me the problems to be rich
I've been watching these for a while and the quality of story-telling has improved. The portraits of the people and the song by the two men in the final minute is a superb touch. The story of Africa is a deep one. It is a long story that cannot be told in a day but every day a new page in our book is written. Vive la Afrique!
Hats off to all men who risk their lives to put food on the table,Much love from🇰🇪🇰🇪
i absolutely love these videos, nothing lets you see the determination and struggle that people the world over go through everyday just to get somewhere. also it makes me humble, when i'm stuck in traffic cause of some idiot on a cell phone i think to myself _"did you have to get out and push your car every half hour cause its stuck in the mud??"_
Hello and good day! from Canada
Big up to the man who has dedicated his life to fix the roads and to the boy who helps his dad with the truck and to the boys working in the fields and mining area may God bless you to have a better future as an African i like watching these videos alot ...i pray you'll have better roads ...im glad in kenya the road conditions are not as bad as in other african coutries
Acha kudanganya watu huku

learn to build these roads, it can be done very cheap and they are only sand, stone and pebble so every village and tribe could build them, my people conquered all of europe because they invented these roads and they are still in use 2,000 years later and they survive everything, show the, people organize them and they will save a fortune in repair to their trucks and it will bring wealth all over africa. making all lives easier and cheaper, they are very cheap and easy to build and maintain and require very little skill. ua-cam.com/video/z1aFWtBXHII/v-deo.html

Does any body here dig for gold?
And we have so many complaints about our life?
No words are enough to describe these people's courage and bravery. My deepest respect for these hard working people of Ivory Coast❤
And this should be an award winning film.
THANK YOU.
You know I've finally figured out why everyone is so hooked on this great Docs, and it's probably because when we look at the hardships/lifestyle these people have to deal(day in & day out, just to survive)with it makes our troubles pale in comparison!!!
I live in Abidjan, but have been in the interior in deserted distant places, and have witnessed thee hardship but enormous courage of Ivoirians. I honor these people here shown, all and each, including the passengers are living examples of greatest courage, smiling and accepting their life, as being alive...
I greatly honor this man repairing holes and limping in order to feed his familly .
Great very realist presentation, thanks for this great video .🙏🏻🌹
What a heart wrenching & hilarious episode at the same time!The humour of the people,their ability to share/work/complain together esp the passengers😂😂...'praying is almost not enough'!
The saddest part was seeing the children in the field, Pythagoras &his bros💔💔...
Count yourself lucky or privileged Cathy and be thankful to God.
pythagoras and hiss broos moving different
Children 😢 😭, so sad to see the children not doing what Children have to do *playing.
Pythagoras and Thales are well known mathematicians
Bravo Upload..

One of the most beautiful documentary Ive ever watched...Thank you 🙏
Awesome documentary. I did not know much about Ivory Cost before I watched this film. Chocolate producing, chocolate looking beautiful people. Ivory Cost is a beautiful country. I will definitely be going to visit these beautiful people and their country.
The man who fixes the streets made me cry. There are still amazing people in this horrible world. May God help him and his family and may his house never run out of food.
@@maninamerica2046 hes doing it out of necessity, doesnt look like a thug. he claims to survive off the generosity of others. basically a beggar that works, like a much harder working version of the beggars that clean your windows.
❤❤
👏👏👏
Wish I knew how to get in touch with the poor hard working crippled man. I'd donate to him & his family. God have mercy, and Bless him for his efforts.
the government should be ashamed of themselves.
@@bshava8323 agreed!
I said the same thing. I said to my girlfriend I wish I could get in touch with the disabled man and the young kid who said it's hell here and we don't make enough to feed ourselves. God bless them in what they do. We (most of us) are so fortunate to have what we have and where we live. It furiates me to hear others say what they say to others around the world. I believe love and compassion can make a difference around the world for others who are less fortunate.
The govt is highly corrupted. Watching this abject poverty brings tears in my eyes. One of the most expensive food and gold is produced by these uneducated people. Children, children, need education. The UN and the govt is stealing all of our donations and they are proud of it.
I get your feeling and admire your wil. I do think it's a very western way of thinking. We see terrible things, and we wanna commit ourselves. Half of the world is starving, and fighting for survival or basic human rights. What about them...
Big respect to the person fixing and maintining the road by his own shovel and bare hands
*bare hands
Just marvelous and fantastic! I watched this in the morning and it made my day and gave me much inspiration. I would have to say the most inspiring part of this film was the man repairing the road at the end with a paralyzed leg. Nothing but positive energy in this film. Also another great capture and great filming work!
That the magic of Ivory Coast bro. You should def visit. The most hospitable and fun people you'll ever see

Very beautifully taken with so many beautiful people old young and children who were in the making of this awesome realistic Documentary.
Thanks lovely .
I love this series! Each episode is a copulation of comedy, determination and brutal reality. From the yellow truck traveling at breakneck speed to the miners prospecting for gold, this episode should encourage one to practice gratitude every day. It's abundantly clear how hard the elder works for his children; it was refreshing to see his son's appreciation.
fuckin sad that they use kids whewn u are not lookin
I wished my parents had never born me
Capitalism sucks.
Didn’t miss a seconds of this documentary, what an amazing story. BC🇳🇬
Hello, I am Korosh son of Pars in Iran
I swear to God, I have a thousand problems in my life
But I pray for the people of Africa with all my heart and I ask the Almighty God to help the people of Africa, I hope He will hear the voice of these people and help the people of Africa, Amen, Lord of the worlds.🙏🙏❤❤
Such a moving documentary, especially to know how people and even small children fight on for their daily bread.
In gratitude.
This is what documentary should be.. 👍👍👍
I grew up in the same condition in Liberia and today I am living in a Germany🇩🇪 but sometimes complain😁 about the little things like train🚉 being late for 5 minutes. Humans are very ungrateful🤣
Me too I grew up in this kind of situation in Uganda, and now live in the UK, and I also complain not sometimes like you but most of the time😜😜
And I grew up in Zimbabwe and this situation is getting worser by the day over there. I now live in the UK and feeling grateful. Wish I could find the road repairing guy and bless him even with the little I earn. 😢

Love and respect to those people of Ivory Coast.❤❤from Greater Nepal.
My heart goes out to the courage of the Ivorians and not even the gruesome and inhumane nature of work and life can take their smile and courage away. God will continue to bless these lovely courageous people.
Amin insAllah
with all respect. The ivorians are beautiful people and i appreciate as much as i could. I dont know what words can do but I really do pray that we find a better way. i pray for you and all of us
Yes
Massive respect to the Man who keep filling the potholes
those singers were FIRE! I would buy a whole album from there SERIOUSLY…..
It is normal now that I watch this documentary with tears in my eyes. Thanks for showing the world and showing how human beings are exploited and kept trapped to suffer for the benifit of a few. At the end I always ask myself as to what I have done for the people of my own poor country, at least I am thinking. Love and respect from Sri Lanka !
I admire that one-legged dude who maintains the road despite his condition. This video is amazing, you just earned yourself a new subscriber 👍 From Guam, USA 🇺🇸
Do you mean you’re from Guam? And now you live in the USA? 😂 just curious, because I never heard of Guam, USA. And I live in Boston.
@@TAZ0300 Guam is the miniature version of Hawaii...you can Google it 🤘
@@sonofnam4418 don’t we have a massive military base over there?
@@TAZ0300 Yup... we've got the US Naval base Guam and the Andersen Air Force base. Most families here have a relative serving in the US military...and we love our barbecues 👍🇺🇸

Wow, that sounds bad ass. What’s the weather out there right now? I live in Massachusetts not far from Westover Air Force Base 2 hours from Boston. It’s cold and rainy today, but even in the snow, we still barbecue 🍖 🤷🏻♂️😂😂😂 by the way, tell me that one legged guy fixing the road is not a hero. Damn, I admire him. Most of my friends won’t even get a fucking job and this guy is hopping around on one leg fixing the road for three dollars a day he’s a champ. You just have to admire him.😂😂
Big respect to that guy who repair the road
Thank you so much, i have learned so much while watching this series. I will never forget the man who is filling up the road with just one leg under the heat, and the moment when he said that he is very tired and looked to the ground........
Thank you for sharing with us this enlightening documentary. It has taught me that my daily challenges are far better than what others are facing. I am grateful for what i have and i aim to accept the things i can not change.
Africa is a great continent with resilient people I hope one day we will all come together so that we can share knowledge on how to make our lives easy. Case in point being the issue of roads. In my rural area people used to fix roads on every Fridays as a community. I think the same concept can be used in such areas in the documentary. Some times its not about lack of funds that is needed, team work will go a long way.
The man fixing the road is a real hero- the world needs more people like him.
Zachary is a real jerk- i hate the way he treats his assistant!
That is the real Hero in this Documentary.
Nice video
I thought Zachary was a jerk too. The father with the his son was awesome I hope his son gets a education and his dreams come true so he is able to take care of his father and mother. I cried for the man filling the holes in the road and bless the people who give him money with gratitude for him fixing the road.
A real hero indeed and God will bless for that effort he puts in their😢
Felt sad and almost teared when I saw the six year old kid working.
He's just doing his little part of helping his family. We can be happy that he will never become a spoiled, ungrateful young fellow.
That guy who repairs the road even he is a pwd is a Good Guy❤️
As a non-Ivorian residing in Abidjan, the biggest Ivorian city, am very sorry. Compared to Abidjan, one cannot imagine that deep in the countryside people undergo that hardship on a daily basis. Hats off to those gold diggers and especially to the small truck driver and his courageous son.
Gold diggers huh
American children are so spoiled. It'll take a catastrophe to get them off the couch.
The son Dao is hot lol 🔥 🔥🔥 😋😋😋
ได้ข่าวเหมือนกันว่าที่หมู่บ้านบางหมู่บ้านเขาถูกหลอกให้ปลูกโกโก้ พอได้ผลผลิตแล้วบริษัทที่บอกจะรับชื้อเขาหายไปเลย สุดท้ายชาวเกษตร ต้องนำผลผลิตเอาไปทิ้ง คนคนชื้อต้นกล้าราคาแพงๆ มาปลูกกันเยอะมากๆ
because those miserable are the one ensruing your luxury life in abidjan, so you vote ouattara and they continue suffering.

can't stop my tears dropping down my face by looking at the brave man work trying his best to maintain the road. That's real love. Thank you God for my full health!!!! I have to work a lot!!!
The most beautiful and hardworking people, so much respect for the angel repairing the road... Good health and many more years and blessings
This is excellent! Beautiful story telling, this is Art. I love it,
Yakou’s son is the most amazing son. He really helped his dad 😔
Sad story and yet victorious stories. The cinematography is amazing, They should make posters and sell still shots to provide for these families.
I love this country from the bottom of my heart. The Ivory Coast is the best African country I have ever seen. It is beautiful, may God protect it
Man, Africa is a vibe
Thank you for all you do to bring this story to me I live in Mississippi in the USA but would love to see this country.
No you wouldn’t..imagine the whole country being like Chicago at 2am.
They only show the good parts it’s a violent hellhole.
@@travelwithtony5767 a lot of countries in that area are very poverty stricken so there tends to be more violence and crime with different factions wanting to fight over the countries natural resources, one of the countries on the ivory coast is sierra leone and its a prime example. Many of these countries are like this because when the European Nations who divided up africa were in the process of industrializing never bothered to develop these places except in the ability to harvest their resources, so the jobs were based around this kind of economy. And when the same European powers decided to give them their independence, they didnt have access to the kind of goods that came from their overlords.
@@masterodisguise2983 I believe it would be amazing and terrifying and Sierra Leone sounds so romantic but I'm a sucker for the human struggles and hardships that's all I know.
@@masterodisguise2983 You are speaking to me like I am a little child with no knowledge of Africa…unlike you I have travelled to these countries and witnessed first hand the violent crimes and savagery of the local tribes throughout Africa, and it has been this way long before White people tried in vain to industrialize and elevate them out of poverty, it was a hopeless effort because African leaders are the most corrupt greedy and evil despots in the world, they more than anything else are responsible for the poverty and awful conditions their own people are forced to live under, stop getting your news and information from your TV they have an agenda and put out propaganda and fake news..get on a plane and visit yourself and you will come away with a different opinion after experiencing the reality of what is going on over there.
@@travelwithtony5767 lol whats your problem? I just like history
Very informative video 👍 ! God bless the gentleman repairing the roads and this amazing nation 🙏.
Watching from Zimbabwe Gokwe Nembudziya ❤️🇿🇼🇿🇼🇿🇼👍

What the son had to say about his father really touch me. Beautiful thing to appreciate your parents, especially when you did right by there honest sacrifice
I love Africa love the people of Africa
Thanks for yet another great video!
Excellent documentary!
I've been watching different videos all day and the more I watch & see the less I know about the world around me. It's the isolated documentaries that come out that are told very well with excellent photography as well as individuals telling there own personal story is much appreciated.
Me too since watching documentaries about other countries on UA-cam I've suddenly realised I've been walking around with my eyes closed for 40 years .was quite upsetting when I realised how much we have been lied to .
Feel like I want to do something to help at least a few people before I leave this world .
The driver of the truck is so brave! I have a a lot of respect for his driving skills, courage and determination to just keep on going for a few dollars a day! I also never thought anything of Kia vehicles until I saw what that truck has been doing for years!
I SINCERELY FELL FOR THE 1 MAN THAT REPAIRS THAT ROAD.. YOU CAN SEE IT IN HIS FACE THAT HE IS MOTIVATED
I love those documentarys thank you
Superb documentary. Thanks.
Hats off to these legends in Ivory Coast, makes you realize that you don't have it that bad
The last dude repairing the roads, what a hero
Mr. Abou, Hats Off!
Thank you, great documentary
im over here in my bed with a cold acting like a dam baby watching these absolute warriors work there ass of for pennies and doing it with a smile i have so much respect for people that live in these less fortunate countries and i think to my self if you can survive where they come from and do it with a smile they would absaloutly thrive in countries like mine also watching these videos just make me more disgusted with the people that live in our country who do nothing but complain and take for granted just how lucky they really are to be born into our beautiful country they have no idea what struggling really is
I wish we could take the ungrateful complainers & trade them for these good people. All they want is a chance to work to improve their family's lives - not bitch & moan because they want a free ride, or because someone else earns more.

I enjoyed All of this,thank you.
Really heart-touching Ivorian documentary; especially that road-repairing impaired person Abu, he is a real hero.
Hard life but the smiles on their faces were really motivational
We need to help this man that is disabled an taking care of the roads!! Cmon humanity let’s show him his brothers an sisters support him
Respect and admiration to the hard working, perseverance of the African people💪🏽. The daily hustle is not easy. From a pampered US guy.
my big applaud to the road repair man despite of his amputated foot he still doing his best to feed his family.
This is such a beautiful continent but I hate so see my people suffer like this honestly because of corruption we are so proud of our resources but it only benefits a few and the rest stay poor so sad governments can't even build it's people roads from that money I was lucky to be born in Cape-Town and could take hot showers eat burgers and pizza watching these videos made me not complain anymore
What beautiful words Dao said about his father. He is a great son, I hope he made the best decision about his future and God bless him and his dad
This country is full of so much human refuse but these guys make use of every last little bit to make do! Its really awesome to see their large families prospering so well in such a harsh environment.
kenya is heaven . my karachuongo village is the remotest and there is tarmac upto our homestead.

Not talented enough to create roads or worthwhile things.
This is a very interesting documentary. But you show primarily different truck drivers on the road. I would have liked to see also about the life of their wifes. What do the children do all day long? How do schools look like there? How is the life in the village? And more broader topics of the country.
Bonjour, félicitation à Best documentary pour ce reportage sur zone forestière de l'OUEST de la côte d'ivoire. c'est émouvant ! notre modèle économique hérité de la colonisation après 60 ans montre sans l'ombre d'un doute ses limites. il est temps de tout démolir douloureusement et de repenser le développement inclusif du pays. Depuis Abidjan côte d'ivoire !
God bless the people of ivory coast sky is the limit
1:04 I visited Kenya 🇰🇪 and see matatu touts doing similar stunts too, must be an African thing to always be happy no matter the situation ❤
agreed but our roads are 1st class
Thanks Good job 👌👍
Si,sus gobiernos no fueran tan corruptos y trabajarán para el pueblo esto no pasaría con esta gente tan trabajadora,es una gran nación,me encantan estos documentales, felicidades desde México.
I am just astounded by the poverty and the poor conditions of the roads and bridges. Most African governments are trifling and corrupt.
They learned from the West .....Money/greed is KING!!!!
@@xalleem8117 they are just the same as their ancestors, who sold their neighbors & African brothers to ships leaving Africa. Some humans in every culture are evil & it is always the evil one who seek power. Few good people understand how to fight this evil, but can only struggle to survive. It is so unfair.

@@MrDelgrigorov You have to be ignorant enough to think that the rich countries don't owe the comfort they enjoy from these people. What's a couple million Euros they can cough up to fix a 45-kilometer road and dump some of their unwanted vehicles to replace the trucks that these people are forced to make do with?
@@MrDelgrigorov Why did you choose to post a comment about something you absolutely have no clue?
@@MrDelgrigorov The OP is wondering what if the rich lend a helping hand to poor countries that their countries took advantage of in the past and you talk about responsibility?

Watching this brought me to tears of both sadness and joy. Africans, we are very resourceful and talented, but for some reason the world continues to look down on us. Also, I start to say to myself being born and raised in Cameroon that it's not so bad.
