What made the Gambia a good environment for entrepreneurship?
I have never heard of any killing before .
Electricity is stable , I have not seen a generator since I got here .
The currency is much stable than the naira with stronger value .
The tax is very cheap..

Them no dey play hard to get o, moreover they love Nigerians anyways.
Aswear I mean say I go enter that place. Especially as you say they love Nigerians and me am sick of Nigerian girls. With what has been described about them, seems they are different and importantly, it won't be difficult to get a mountain of backside that would be marriageable....I fit first go on vacation there but I promise i go hala you once I get there.
Thanks chief

ECOWAS, not Nigeria (under Buhari) alone, forced Jammeh out.

Nigeria joined the regional mission as a member of ECOWAS and the only air assets involved were helicopters for patrol and support.
While ECOMOG surrounded his country, J. J. Hammer still refused to leave until Buhari deployed Nigerian Airforce planes. That should tell you that there is nothing like ECOMOG, but just Nigeria

You omitted that one of the tribes in Gambia is the Jollof tribe, and that they are recorded as being the first known to mix rice and pepper and oil, so the food Jollof Rice is theirs
There's no tribe called Jollof tribe, what we have is the Wolof tribe.

At least I know how to punctuate... cheesy cheesy cheesy

Imagine claiming to be exposed when you can't even punctuate a simple sentence... But I don't blame you, I blame your teachers for their laziness.

Best decision i ever made .
Nice country , tiny population, stable electricity.
Hot climate , good environment for entrepreneurship.
Less materialistic women and men all in general . So for a Nigerian you may tag them as lazy , but in reality they don’t see money the way we Nigerians do .. they strongly believe you should enjoy today for tomorrow will take care of itself.
You are not lying at all. Most of my friends from other African countries really don't rate money and materialism that much. They are never in a hurry to achieve anything.

And men from some of these places are level headed and treat women well even marital laws in some Africa country protects wives and children.

personally aside Ghana and south Africans If you date people from other African countries you most likely won't be able to relate with Nigeria toxic relationships.

Congratulations..

I just got married to the love of my life here in Nairobi on the 5th (which was Wednesday last week).

Traditional wedding was on the 10th of October, the only expensive thing on the marriage list was the number of cows I was asked to present (1 bull and 2 heifers), my in-laws catered for everything from catering to photo shoot, to you name it!

Best decision I ever made! There’s something fundamentally wrong with Nigeria. As a young man, the best gift you can give your unborn kids, is a second citizenship, it doesn’t necessarily have to be in an European country.

PS: We have already started making application for my permanent residency on the Kenyan E-Citizen platform.

Bye bye to that yeye country called Nigeria!

South Africa's population density is approximately 50.6 per square kilometer, while Nigeria's is 245. We are like five times. Then corruption flourishes, and much infrastructure is not built. They are just trying to do it gradually. On top of that, our birth rate exceeds six per woman. You can see that the tension is extremely high.

Nigeria has refused to address its exploding population and corruption, which is why people are becoming poorer. Few people will naturally begin to leave. If you include all of those who live outside of Nigeria, we will have a population density that is approximately eight times that of S.A.

China used to be like this when it was poor and crowded with people. Everyone wanted to leave then. But their economy is now stable, and they have reduced corruption and overpopulation. Look at India, too. There are so many of them, and corruption exists, so they are constantly on the move.

Gambia is hella boring.
If e dey safe - no shootings, break-in into cars/houses, police harassment, stabbings etc., - then it is a good deal. I love such places.

It’s freaking hot, a tiny economy that revolves mainly around tourism.
You have been so used to Northern Europe to an extent, tropical West Africa is too hot. grin

Their currency is high, but to make it is harder.
This seems to be a global phenomenon. Countries with strong currencies have it hard, even for the natives, to make good money.

They have beaches, and that’s what draw Europeans there, but Nigerian beaches are better and plenty.
Are our beaches really that better? Outside Lagos and Akwa Ibom, where else do we have beaches which regularly attract fun-seekers and are safe? It is the safety that attracts Europeans.

Lots of Nigerians ladies do prostitution there. Infact that’s a trade Nigerian girls are know for.
I wouldn't have imagined it o shocked

But on a business note, it is a virgin land compared to Ghana. Run it for three years, gather enough funds and decide on what next to do.
