Mrs.Chima:Of course the world would die!  what do you expect when you destroyed the root of the world, the cradle of humanity and civilization, mama Afraca? but the death of some one's world can be the rebirth of another one, we Africans prefer been the last laughter, and we shall be, slowly but surely on their faces1 Like |

Very interesting thread! At one point I would have probably jumped at the chance to move to Africa permanently. What may have kept me from pursuing it seriously was that I had no idea of which country I'm from. Now I know I'm from Nigeria, but I only learned that this year; and at this point in my life, I'm very well established in my career. Most importantly all of my extended family are here; and I couldn't leave without them. The most I can now hope to do is visit -- and hopefully many times over my lifetime. I applaud anyone courageous enough to have made the move. The first thing that came to mind when I read the topic was what it would take for more countries in Africa to excel on a global stage, and what role the diaspora could play in it. There are so many areas for collaboration, but perhaps an equal number of challenges. If diaspora were to return, I would hope they would seek out Africans who are receptive to collaboration and not be dissuaded by those who might oppose. It's the same in the US. No matter what you do, some will be for it, and some will be against it. Just stick with those who are for it and over time you will make a difference. 2 Likes |

Quite an age usadiaspora. I am happy that you are still constant. You know, life is one big quest that engage we all, but just as you've said, its not 'all comer' thing. Some will be embarrased by our quest, that our devotion is delution. But like Churchill would say, never ever, ever, ever give up. Lincoln said something to that effect in his letter to his child teacher: 'teach him to have faith in his own idea...' Hang on to that faith, it is not delution but devotion. 1 Like |

You are one of the first ones to welcome me online  . Life is one big quest, for sure. It's sometimes hard to do the things we dream of, especially the older we get. But if we could only hang on to the faith we had as children, we could do anything. |

USADiasporan:Thats true life my brother, we are turn apart between our devotion and distractions right from childhood. When we catch the dream too late it get to span more than a lifetime that we dont seem to have. albeit, we can bestow the vision to the next generation in the book we find time to write or org we register. Remember Walt Disney! We all have some magic that is concealed in childhood, we have to revamp it, or else the void. Meanwhile, if it is spiritual, be ready to fight for it as it may mean 'stupid' to the other man in the alley. People freely feed on each other's brainchild to prove 'smarter than thou' everyday, protect yours jealously. |

Jayvarley: Hussein Bolt is the Jamaican that holds the world record for the 100 metres sprint race. Most arent taught about the Trans Atlantic horrors, its Colonisation rather that Western education teaches. Beause of the great carpet destruction of evidence in major continental cities & libraries, we have been forced to believe Eurocentric versions of history, not anymore, our historians have proven them as being fake, false and unreal. Continue to educate those that arent aware that the evils of Colonialism is not disconnected from the evils of the Trans Atlantic campaign. The same way i would say to you that the evils of the Trans Atlantic campaign is not disconnected from the evils of Colonisation. Re-educate yourself on African history. Never forget that we are all one big family. It's inevitable that African diaspora will be given their proper continental rights i.e citizenship, trade, work e.t.c Given that the talk is about those of them that have been found to have passed the necessary requirements and shown to being law abiding citizens, then, they should be allowed to qualify for adoption into the appropriate ethnicity. |

Amujale: You haven't fixed the Africa you are living in and you are inviting African Diasporans living in semi better structures. I laugh in Hausa! |

morpheus24: Yes, but African Diasporans returning to their home might just lead to a great fix. |
