Wode MAYA hope you okay do you have any details or links to the new project of mini city the gentleman next project he is about to construct. Thanks for your cooperations hope to hear from you soon. And thanks for the video
I'm a Nigerian and I love what you are doing Wode Maya. I mean, how would I have known that there's this beautiful hotel in the Gambia if not for this video? Pls, continue to create more awarenesses and before you know, the continent will become a destination. Kudos to that guy there. He has inspired me a lot. Finally, Nigerian billionaires and celebrities, pls, change your direction from Dubai, USA, London to the Gambia. Go and support your brother there. God bless you all.
This is a wonderful , lovely place And a great creation ,I ll currently come to visit Right stop investment any where eles Make your own country rich and make a better life for your population...Stop making other countries rich 🙏🏿🙏🏽
As in like am telling you , as a Nigerian I just want to say thank you Wode Maya for showing us the Africa they never show us on Tv you WODE MAYA had changed the narratives thank you ..
🇸🇷🇸🇷🇸🇷🇸🇷 Representing Surinam This man understands what needs to be done in africa “ Africans need to change their mindset and start developing their OWN country”
@@surifushion feels really good to be connected to Suriname through this video. I am definitely going to visit motherland soon. If you do have connections with like minded that are in the same industry as mine please connect. Groetjes van Zimbabwe. Where I am on vacation right now
I respect him when he says Nigerians and Ghanaians should visit Gambia instead of Dubai. How do you want to grow without supporting one another? Maya well done.
Thank you I am an American from WV I meet him and he welcomed me. I am proud to invest in Gambia this my motherland I wish many more had his mindset and welcoming spirit an ability to make the continent our own.
This interview is so adventures...he spoke well to the extent that many Africans will feel guilty knowing that they choose to spend their holidays in dubai,Italy,USA, UK and other European countries whilst we have search beautiful resorts in Africa.....we will grow to learn one day ...thanks maya
You could never convince me to visit Dubai or so. I only prioritize African destinations. Have visited Gambia 3 times and my friends always asking why Gambia when you can visit your own country. I tell them anywhere on the continent is home and Gambians are so friendly and so welcoming. Looking foward for my 4th trip to Gambia in October
I'm not on holiday, I am a digital nomad - someone needs to cater to us, build something that is of high quality that doesn't break the bank and we'll flock to the continent. £200-500 per month for a 1-2 bedroom high quality place and I'm there. But don't demand stupid terms like pay 12 months upfront, or electricity, internet and water is not included. Or furniture not included. Make a great offer and people will flock. Right now I'm stuck in Turkey, and I'm fed up and ready to come home.

Wode Maya, you are literally changing Africa's negative narrative around the world. I'm from the U.S and I can tell you with honesty you are opening the beauty of Africa to the world. Much love, Faysel.
The interview was so stunning. He didn't just do the talk show alone but he is doing the practical. That alone is a total proof that Africa is a great continent, richly endowed with beautiful things of nature. I'm impressed. I believe in myself, I believe in The Gambia and I believe in Africa.
Visiting Ghana in December for first time in Africa! I’m going to set up a trip for Gambia 2023 bringing a group!!! We will definitely be staying at one of these properties 💕 Thanks Wode Maya for changing the narrative on Africa!
hi my name's pablo from togo, country near ghana. will be nice to show you around when in ghana. if you want can introduce you to a friend of mine which gonna help you out with your trip to our motherland. feel free to hit me up. actually am in south korea but will be going back soon.
I'm of African, surinamese, indonesian and japanese descent and I look forward coming to Africa, the continent where it all began! Love and support from the Netherlands 🇳🇱
I am echoing what this great Gambian entrepreneur is saying that Africans in the diaspora including those born in other African countries are always invited to the Gambia to set up their homes and businesses. As a Gambian, I want the Gambia to be an open country for all Africans regardless of where they are from to set up home and run their businesses with peace of mind. Long live Africa.
@@blackkonnexion u will be welcome ,every Africans are welcome ,Gambia is a peacefully country that have people from many different Africans countries already in there .

That's true before Gaddafi was killed he was planning something similar for East Africa I think. We have to work together it's the white man who came and divided us...Our eyes are open now.
Wow! This man is teaching a master class: he is lecturing on political science (geopolitics), international relations as it relates to Africa , international business and tourism all in one video presentation. Yes, China did exactly what he is talking about in less than forty 40 years. China went from having a backward economy to currently the second-largest economy in the world. China accomplished this milestone through what China called, “China modernization policy” propagated under their late leader Deng Xiaoping. Under his leadership, China sent thousands of students to study in the West in various technical & relevant occupations: those students returned and continue to built a modernized economy of China. African countries can do the same (build a vibrant economy) like China but it takes non-corrupt, patriotic & visionary leadership. Leaders who will not create political instability for their own political aggrandizement. Africa has all the ingredients (resources, fertile land, good climate & manpower) to be a great continent on earth. This presentation is mind-blowing. Hope African leaders can listen to this political scientist & smart entrepreneur. Great video #WodeMaya.👍🏿🇺🇸
Thank you for the summary and extra insights. I want to connect to everyone who is interested in developing Africa. Doesn't matter where in Africa they live?
Wode my beloved brother.Although I'm not a Gambian native(Omo yoruba ni m)I'm going to visit the Gambia and contribute to the development there because of your videos.The Gambia will soon look like accra if not better.Virgin land with massive potential.I just hope strictly sons and daughters of africa are the major contributors to this development. The great brother said "we are going to come into this industry and make it Gambian and show that we're better than anyone else." Africa will be great because the indigenous people rise up,take back their lands and develop it themselves. Much respect to this brother for constructing this beautiful resort and thank you for capturing this, wode👊🏿👊🏿👊🏿
The Gambia is a beautiful part of Africa, I like this Hotelier philosophy of building up his country and displaying the beauty of his country,thanks again Wode for showing off the great potential of Africa and its gifted people!!!👍👍❤
Such a great interview. That is my classmate from high school. Wonderful to see what Malleh has done and continues to do. So proud. Inspiring. People are slowly waking up to Africa. Thanks for showcasing the endless possibilities thru your videos.
Excellent, Excellent, Excellent! Brother Wode Maya, you do not disappoint. I am truly proud of you and your work. The way you represent out continent is beyond outstanding. I am a Sierra Leonean 🇸🇱 currently in America and cannot wait to go back home and contribute to our continent. I am definitely going to reach out to several of the fantastic people and companies you have featured on your channel for collaboration and Insha Allah I'll be able to team up with you as well. I send you, Miss Trudi and your team love, respect, and great positive energy to keep doing your incredible work.
As a Suriname woman i'am proud of this what i see now. Congratulions Mr . Salah what you are doing and the africansn must be proud of Gambia and africa continent. The african people must reache each the hands , work together and developed the country. Then we are making progress together. Thank you Wode to show us this video. I enjoy this now from my home.
This video filled my heart with so much pride and joy as all of your videos do. As a Barbadian/Afro Caribbean native every video I watch related to the African Continent makes me so emotional. I always hope to hear that African diasporic peoples who are the descendents of those stolen or those who migrated are viewed as one and accepted. Some day soon I hope to experience this Great!!! Place. When he said he had Surinamese heritage, I was so proud. Suriname is very close to my island and it is a part of the CARICOM Single Market and Economy, that seeks to unite many small islands and South American countries like Guyana and Suriname culturally and economically. I just pray that all African nations continue to see us from the diaspora as their brothers and sisters and children but not as strangers who do not truly belong. This man is a pure diamond and a great ambassador for his native homeland, his continent and his mother's homeland. He is a symbol of excellence and the connection between the motherland and her "lost" children in any African diasporic countries/islands. His eloquent speech, knowledge, passion etc. is representative of what Africa truly is and can continue to be. Bravo Sir! #protect this hero at all costs!!!
Africa is NOT the new frontier, it IS the frontier! Africa is like the brother said, has so much to offer and many there need to understand that things may look good and easy in such places like the U.S, but to have something here in the U.S, we pay a price. Enjoy your country and most of all, treat it with respect and dignity! That's something that a lot of us blacks do not get here in America. From what I see online and hear, Africa is a beautiful place that I hope to visit some day. Thanks for sharing this and the many video's that you post.
I've been looking forward to this episode so much, i can tell it will be a great one thank you once again to you and your team for all you do for Africa🙌🏾❤️❤️❤️❤️
This video made me smiled from ear to ear. Maya please make sure to visit Suriname when you go the Caribbean. I will certainly be visiting The Gambia for my vacation.
He is wonderful. He has a great vision. He is so very right about people taking from Africa, and so its time for Africans to do what the others are doing to us; form partnerships and build for ourselves. Well done Malleh Sallah, I salute you and Omar Jawara.
This is HUGE !! Gambia is now trying to take the lead. Please Africans open up the borders for the youth. Love your brother as yourself. Encorage each other. "Put your hands together he said " Great advice to all Africans. More blessings to this young man. Stay blessed my son. 😇😇😇😇😇😇😇
''We will never know where we are going, if we don't know where we are coming from.'' That line hits differently. God bless this man for being a proud African. We need to change our concepts and mindset so as to grow and be great, like he said, we have all it takes, the resources, the manpower, the creativity and Nature. God bless Wode maya. God bless Gambia. God bless Africa.
You will never see this in the fake news network that only dwell on negativity,God bless you Wode, you are the Kwame Nkrumah of our time,were Kwame stopped,you have continued to unite Africa. We need to stop visiting Dubai,and spend our billions in resorts like this. God bless Africa.
I don’t even have words to express how awesome this Vlog has been for me!!! 10 years from now I will look back and say remember when this all was just an idea, born with blessings and help from the annoying village boy Mr Wode Maya and all you tubers that have also realized the opportunity and pressed forward together too support change and opportunity for mother Africa. Blessings thank you so much!!!
Malleh Sallah and Omar Jawara alningbara. You guys are an inspiration for all Gambians and Africans. You have built great resorts that all Gambians are proud of. Keep up the excellent work.
I have been living in The Gambia for 4 years after coming over to Senegal in 2015. I met this owner at the beautiful Tamala Resort last year. He is one of the most humble brothers you can meet. His resorts are the best in The Gambia. I did a video there last year for my youtube channel. Great job Wode Maya
Absolutely GREAT video Wade Maya. I'm bringing my knowledge and British pounds🤣as a Diaspora from the UK 🇬🇧 to The Gambia, its that time my brother. Keep the videos coming about Black people Mother land AFRICA 🌍 👌🏿✊🏾
I am a Jamaican who lived in Canada I visited and did a mission in the Volta region. I am Ghana going back on May 23 Ghamba, Nigeria and Senegal are definitely on my list.

Hi, Wode Maya! Am from Ethiopia and here we have another Hero engaged in the Hospitability industry and whose name, may be you know him, is Athlet Haile Gebresilassie, two Olympic gold medalist in10,000 meters and four World Championship titles in the event. Now he is retired and working on hospitability industry and other businesses sectors in the different corners of Ethiopia (Africa). As your intention is promoting the Continent Africa, please come and see to Ethiopia for this Courageous person. Thank you for your understanding!
im from the north of africa ..when the guest said that we must ''do what others are doing with our wealth'' i loved it wherever part of africa you from keep grinding my brothers
Loving your Gambian content Wode Maya. The beach hotel is amazing and reminds of a similar one I stayed in Hurghada Egypt where they had pools everywhere as in every building had their own pool and it was an amazing place. I’m putting Gambia on my bucket list for a holiday soon. Such a beautiful resort.
This year I will visit Gambia for the fourth time. I am from Surinam and I love the Gambia and their people (not the bumsters), because it feels like home. I am very pleased to see that the two friends and others are developing their own country instead of abroad. I am very proud of them.
🤣🤣... I feel you, but they (Bumsters) are really good and helpful ppl yo... They got alot of game on how to move around and about as a foreigner... am friends with a lot them. Love the Gambia!♥️
I just love the fact most of if the episodes Wode Maya has been showing from Gambia shows the strength of partnership and Unity. Thank you for showing the Unit we have as Africans❤️
Big respect to The Gambia🇬🇲 and Gambian people you made your country to the smiling coast in Africa with less then 200km coast line i feel bad to my country Somali 🇸🇴 with more then 3000km coast line without any resort or nice hotel like this in the beaches
This is best looking resort I have ever seen. Walk out your door an jump into your pool day or night. I bet a lot of babies were made there. Truly world glass, congratulation to this brother and his partner.
Wow, wow, wow!! Guys stop sneaking out of your beautiful countries and build. This is so inspirational. Even in South Africa , this is outstanding!!! I'm blown away as an African. God bless these Gambian gentlemen 🙏🏽🙏🏽
As I kept on saying always that Wode Maya is a blessing to our continent Africa 🌍 🙏 🏞🌄👏💯. Thank you so much and sky is the limit for our hard working brothers ❤️ 💙
So happy to see African owned businesses thriving in Africa,its time for our people to prosper and not ruthless Colonizers benefiting from Africa's riches.
Love Love it ..More Strength and Power to our Beloved Brothers and Sisters in the Mother Land🇯🇲👍💯 Mr. Maya... there's loads of love and appreciation for what you do!!!👍👍👍
Big up bro man true pan Africanism blessed up for all positive views and opinions positive. Now the west African countries needs one common to have one currency.

*Africa is Eldorado; African dream is possible* I believe the time has now come to make it reality. Thanks Wode for sharing this inspiring people. Really pround to be African. Force à tous dans cette quête d’une meilleure qualité de vie et je reste convaincue que cela passe par notre terre mère l’Afrique. Bon courage à tous 🦾🔥
These hotels are absolutely gorgeous! BTW: I checked all the website (it's actually Balafon Resort if anyone is looking) and I think they are all adult only hotels. I'm not sure if they have family-friendly hotels as of yet but possibly in the near future!
I definitely agree with what the brother has said and done. Couple of years ago I needed ton travel for a vacation and Dubai was the craze of the moment and everyone I knew was heading to Dubai but I decided to visit Tanzania and was really happy that I visit that beautiful country. As Africans we need to visit each other more.

I am definitely going to reach out to several of the fantastic people and companies you have featured on your channel for collaboration and Insha Allah I'll be able to team up with you as well. I send you, Miss Trudi and your team love, respect, and great positive energy to keep doing your incredible work.
As a Suriname woman i'am proud of this what i see now. Congratulions Mr . Salah what you are doing and the africansn must be proud of Gambia and africa continent. The african people must reache each the hands , work together and developed the country. Then we are making progress together. Thank you Wode to show us this video. I enjoy this now from my home.
You are doing a prestigious job. You change my perspective on African people.
This video filled my heart with so much pride and joy as all of your videos do. As a Barbadian/Afro Caribbean native every video I watch related to the African Continent makes me so emotional. I always hope to hear that African diasporic peoples who are the descendents of those stolen or those who migrated are viewed as one and accepted. Some day soon I hope to experience this Great!!! Place. When he said he had Surinamese heritage, I was so proud. Suriname is very close to my island and it is a part of the CARICOM Single Market and Economy, that seeks to unite many small islands and South American countries like Guyana and Suriname culturally and economically. I just pray that all African nations continue to see us from the diaspora as their brothers and sisters and children but not as strangers who do not truly belong. This man is a pure diamond and a great ambassador for his native homeland, his continent and his mother's homeland. He is a symbol of excellence and the connection between the motherland and her "lost" children in any African diasporic countries/islands. His eloquent speech, knowledge, passion etc. is representative of what Africa truly is and can continue to be. Bravo Sir! #protect this hero at all costs!!!
We are One people!✊🏿

so powerful!
Putting Africa out there.
We are thankful maya
"A lot of the world's wealth is created from our ground " 💯
Africa is NOT the new frontier, it IS the frontier! Africa is like the brother said, has so much to offer and many there need to understand that things may look good and easy in such places like the U.S, but to have something here in the U.S, we pay a price. Enjoy your country and most of all, treat it with respect and dignity! That's something that a lot of us blacks do not get here in America. From what I see online and hear, Africa is a beautiful place that I hope to visit some day. Thanks for sharing this and the many video's that you post.
you most welcome
@@casmirifeanyi7788 Thank You!
Ase!
We're witnessing the Motherland excellence through sons and daughters
Asante sana 🙏🏾
I've been looking forward to this episode so much, i can tell it will be a great one thank you once again to you and your team for all you do for Africa🙌🏾❤️❤️❤️❤️
This video made me smiled from ear to ear. Maya please make sure to visit Suriname when you go the Caribbean. I will certainly be visiting The Gambia for my vacation.
You are invited
He is wonderful. He has a great vision. He is so very right about people taking from Africa, and so its time for Africans to do what the others are doing to us; form partnerships and build for ourselves. Well done Malleh Sallah, I salute you and Omar Jawara.
This is HUGE !!
Gambia is now trying to take the lead. Please Africans open up the borders for the youth. Love your brother as yourself. Encorage each other. "Put your hands together he said " Great advice to all Africans. More blessings to this young man.
Stay blessed my son. 😇😇😇😇😇😇😇
Very soon
''We will never know where we are going, if we don't know where we are coming from.''
That line hits differently.
God bless this man for being a proud African.
We need to change our concepts and mindset so as to grow and be great, like he said, we have all it takes, the resources, the manpower, the creativity and Nature.
God bless Wode maya.
God bless Gambia.
God bless Africa.
You will never see this in the fake news network that only dwell on negativity,God bless you Wode, you are the Kwame Nkrumah of our time,were Kwame stopped,you have continued to unite Africa. We need to stop visiting Dubai,and spend our billions in resorts like this. God bless Africa.
We need more men like this man in Africa. our African men especially in the diaspora are so lost. Our mindset need to change as well.
I don’t even have words to express how awesome this Vlog has been for me!!! 10 years from now I will look back and say remember when this all was just an idea, born with blessings and help from the annoying village boy Mr Wode Maya and all you tubers that have also realized the opportunity and pressed forward together too support change and opportunity for mother Africa. Blessings thank you so much!!!

Malleh Sallah and Omar Jawara alningbara. You guys are an inspiration for all Gambians and Africans. You have built great resorts that all Gambians are proud of. Keep up the excellent work.
I have been living in The Gambia for 4 years after coming over to Senegal in 2015. I met this owner at the beautiful Tamala Resort last year. He is one of the most humble brothers you can meet. His resorts are the best in The Gambia. I did a video there last year for my youtube channel. Great job Wode Maya
Absolutely GREAT video Wade Maya.
I'm bringing my knowledge and British pounds🤣as a Diaspora from the UK 🇬🇧 to The Gambia, its that time my brother. Keep the videos coming about Black people Mother land AFRICA 🌍 👌🏿✊🏾

This Brother Speaks Truth. Why Go to Dubai to vacation or spend your money? Go to the Gambia, or Sierra Leone, or Ghana, Nigeria, etc. "Whoever You Give Your Money To, Is Who You Give Your Power To." --Frederick Douglas
Yo, I am loving this Gambia series of videos.
Hi, Wode Maya!
Am from Ethiopia and here we have another Hero engaged in the Hospitability industry and whose name, may be you know him, is Athlet Haile Gebresilassie, two Olympic gold medalist in10,000 meters and four World Championship titles in the event. Now he is retired and working on hospitability industry and other businesses sectors in the different corners of Ethiopia (Africa). As your intention is promoting the Continent Africa, please come and see to Ethiopia for this Courageous person.
Thank you for your understanding!
Will definetly feature him someday
Not only was this fun to watch, but I feel like I just got to sit in on a MBA program at Stanford on global business. I loved this interview.
im from the north of africa ..when the guest said that we must ''do what others are doing with our wealth'' i loved it
wherever part of africa you from keep grinding my brothers
Very inspiring .Glad to hear the brother speak about being African first then Gambian. We can do it.
This man can attract thousands to Gambia and Africa as whole. Good job and your hard work.
Loving your Gambian content Wode Maya. The beach hotel is amazing and reminds of a similar one I stayed in Hurghada Egypt where they had pools everywhere as in every building had their own pool and it was an amazing place. I’m putting Gambia on my bucket list for a holiday soon. Such a beautiful resort.
This year I will visit Gambia for the fourth time. I am from Surinam and I love the Gambia and their people (not the bumsters), because it feels like home.
I am very pleased to see that the two friends and others are developing their own country instead of abroad. I am very proud of them.
🤣🤣... I feel you, but they (Bumsters) are really good and helpful ppl yo... They got alot of game on how to move around and about as a foreigner... am friends with a lot them. Love the Gambia!♥️
I just love the fact most of if the episodes Wode Maya has been showing from Gambia shows the strength of partnership and Unity. Thank you for showing the Unit we have as Africans❤️
Proud to be a Gambian and African, let's go the smiling coast of Africa 🌍
Awesome ,this is so encouraging !
I am Kenyan and looking forward to visit The Gambia with my sons in my next vacay .
So help me God 🙏🙏
It's great to see Africa, and The Gambia moving forward. 😊
Big respect to The Gambia🇬🇲 and Gambian people you made your country to the smiling coast in Africa with less then 200km coast line i feel bad to my country Somali 🇸🇴 with more then 3000km coast line without any resort or nice hotel like this in the beaches
It must be your dream to own one, grab the opportunity 👊🏾
Big up's
InshAllah we all succeed and Africa becomes #1.
Somalia is the next frontiers
This is why Somalians must strive for peace. Progress needs peace!
These are some of the most beautifully built structures in West Africa, the blend of pools and green is just amazing.
Great content and huge PR for Africa and certainly for Gambia. Thanks Wode Maya.
indeed Gambians are beautiful inside and outside . The smiling coast of Africa
WONDERFUL WODE U HAVE DONE IT AGAIN, THIS IS SO INSPIRING FOR AFRICAN DIASPORA. HAIL AFRICA from Alabama... USA

Wode Maya, you've been one of our biggest ambassadors. The Gambia is proud of you.
Yes Africans, let's do this 🙌.I'm definitely coming to Gambia 🖤 🇿🇦
That's the spirit
Big up bro man true pan Africanism blessed up for all positive views and opinions positive. Now the west African countries needs one common to have one currency.
*Africa is Eldorado; African dream is possible* I believe the time has now come to make it reality. Thanks Wode for sharing this inspiring people. Really pround to be African. Force à tous dans cette quête d’une meilleure qualité de vie et je reste convaincue que cela passe par notre terre mère l’Afrique. Bon courage à tous 🦾🔥
Am Ugandan love what you are doing
These hotels are absolutely gorgeous! BTW: I checked all the website (it's actually Balafon Resort if anyone is looking) and I think they are all adult only hotels. I'm not sure if they have family-friendly hotels as of yet but possibly in the near future!
You are welcome to Gambia
I definitely agree with what the brother has said and done. Couple of years ago I needed ton travel for a vacation and Dubai was the craze of the moment and everyone I knew was heading to Dubai but I decided to visit Tanzania and was really happy that I visit that beautiful country. As Africans we need to visit each other more.
Welcome again to Tanzania 🇹🇿 my friend. hope you enjoyed your time in Tz. Tanzania unforgettable
Watching from Jamaica 🇯🇲 this is so beautiful Africa to the world 🌍
Very Afrocentric man, I love those who know themselves, love their own and invest in their countries.
