    Excellent information as usual. For the plantation mentality people just should stay in amerikkka. If you come over with that western self entitlement thinking everything will get done at a fast pace you’re not going to last. Also set a multiple bank accounts in the country you’re planning on moving to so you can send money ahead of your arrival when visiting . Cynthia is correct about having enough money to get through the weekend because atm’s are empty on weekends.

    We also have to remember that this country is young like western countries were in their first 200 years. America didn’t have all the conveniences they have 200 years later. These countries are less than 60 years old and is still more advanced than America was in its first 100 years.

    SJM you are absolutely correct about staying away from the pig in every aspect. Many of our people don't know it contributes to hypertension with the high sodium content and research has shown pork has over forty different worms. It would probably help to get on the land sooner if we build a small tiny home built with interlocking bricks, The cost savings is is 25 to 30% less than the normal blocks used and the house goes up in many instances 1 month to 2 months. Just a suggestion. Thank you family for the information,

    Good to see people showing a better perspective of African countries.
    Nowadays it's becoming easier to get modern day things almost anywhere, and easy to supplement where things are lacking, such as solar energy and solar cooking
    You may need to pay more, but don't let that stop you. There are also other African countries, where you can travel for a more "modern" experience, like Kenya or South Africa.
