    This story implies that it is a rather lengthy and difficult process to citizenship in Italy. Is that true?
    Having lived in Italy for 20+ years gives special meaning to becoming a full citizen. He has been living as an Italian so many years, what took so long for this to happen?
    I realize this is newsworthy because he is a TikTok and RUclips celebrity, but really, its a glaring example of how some countries treat immigrants.

      Even regular Italians that many consider just "white" became "white" just around the '80s.
      Didn't you noticed that? We Italians are not white despite we can easily looks like that. It's more a construct rather than an actual thing.

    Well let me tell you this: my in laws are cubans. They're all black but they have an italian ancestor. Since they managed to prove it with some documents they got Italian citizenship "the same day" and got their passports whithin a few weeks. They have never lived in Italy and still don't live there. Also I don't think that Kaby only got his passport because he's famous. He's never said that himself. When you want to get citizenship there are requirements and you also simply have to apply and wait. Who knows when he applied. And also it's much worse than that where I live: I was born and raised in Switzerland (a country just next to Italy) and I had to apply for the passport and hand in a million documents, get my face printed in the local newspaper, find 3 people who can talk "nicely" about me, pay enormous fees, learn all kinds of stuff about Swiss geography and history and pass a written and a speaking test only to wait 7 full years to finally get it. And still Swiss people tell me I'm a Swiss only on paper. Imagine being born and raised in a place, finish university and try to live a normal life but get told on a daily basis that you don't fit.

    I was born in Germany from Italian parents and lived 66 years there. When I tried to apply for German citizenship in my early 20s, they put a price tag corresponding to 3 months worth of income on it. I opted for my first used car and never looked back. Now the cost is down to around 150 Euros, but as an bavarian peculiarity, I would have to drop my Italian passport. In other federal states you may hold dual citizenship, which is why Turkish politicians hold elections rallies in Germany.
    In contrast when I married my wife she received an Italian passport on the spot and could keep her german citizenship.
    So whoever thinks Italy is fussy about citizenship should broaden his horizon.

      The point that it will grant you the same rights of a EU citizens. Its huge if you compare any EU passport to an African one.

      Same here in Kenya. There are alot of Italian immigrants. I'd argue amongst our population of European migrants, Italian is the highest. When a whole town has a specific name for mixed Kenyan and Italian children, it really shows that they are many 😄

    And this is why I will respect all occidental countries. Once you live there, work there and show respect they will give you there nationality. And its not only a papers matter its bigger than that.
    Go to UAE, Qatar etc work your whole life they will never consider you one of them

    Yikes. Italy govt knew exactly what they were doing. Now his fame will be associated with Italy instead of Senegal. Honestly after the story about the disabled Nigerian man who was murdered by an Italian in Broad daylight, I cringe knowing that more Africans dare to want to stay in that country despite the hatred against them. I hope things change and people feel the need to stay in their countries and try to improve the living situation instead of going somewhere you're hated by the majority of people.

      Have you ever been to Italy? You assume easily that 60 millions are racist ready to harm black people. Well look at stats in Italy murder numbers are waaay below Us South America or Africa so maybe there is a reason why so many risk their lives to get in Europe. Btw the guy who killed the Nigerian man was bipolar not an excuse but mental issues and racial hate are different

      @@LeratoM98 he was the one that asked for the citizenship, isn’t the government that offered it to him. He followed the procedure like everyone else and obtained it, it has nothing to do with the fact he became famous, also my friend obtained the citizenship at the same age of Khaby. This is the Italian law but it can probably change at the next elections this September
