[00:02:16]Let this be the evidence to you guys that it is happening right now. It is happening in Africa, guys. Africa, regardless of everything that we see happening in this continent, man, things are changing. Things are moving forward.

[00:02:30]People waking up and Africans are tired.

[00:02:32]I say this a lot of times that Africans, we tired.

[00:02:51]And thankfully, thankfully, there are people who are kind of like sane. They They are sane in their mind and they're taking the right step. They are already seeing what people wants. They already see what people demand. And you know what they do? They actually tap into that. They're like, "Okay, this is what we're going to do now. This is what we're going to do." So, I have a great news today. Couple weeks ago, I came here, guys. I shared a video on my Instagram and all over the platform. I shared the video about how Ghana removed all visa restriction and starting from May, you can actually grab your passport, go straight to Ghana as long as you're African from anywhere in the continent, you don't need a visa in Ghana. And then couple weeks later, I came. I spoke about Seychelles. How Seychelles did the same exact thing.

[00:03:40]Remove a visa, open up a border, and you can actually grab your passport and go straight to Seychelles without needing visa.

[00:03:48]And then I came again last week. I spoke Is it this No, this week. This week, 3 days ago, I was here to share with you guys how Togo took the same initiative.

[00:04:00]Togo remove all the visa restriction for all African countries. You can basically just grab your passport, go to Togo right now. You don't need visa and visit the country. Togo. Today, guys. Today, five six seven hours ago, I was in charge, so I was not able to come right away to give you guys update, but our Swahili news network, our platform shared that news. Burundi, guys. Burundi. Guys, Burundi. Kudos to small countries in the continent, by the way.

[00:04:31]Cuz I know even Rwanda actually Rwanda this year as well did the same thing.

[00:04:34]Remove visa restriction for all African countries. You can grab your passport, go to Rwanda. You don't need visa. You can go to Rwanda there.

[00:04:41]Kenya did the same thing as well. You can grab your passport This year, you can grab your passport, go to Kenya. You don't need visa. You go there. Djibouti did the same thing last year. You can grab your visa, go to Djibouti, visit that country. These small countries are doing this today, guys. Today. Today, as I'm saying right now, you can go to Burundi without having a visa. As long as you're an African, you can go and visit Burundi without visa. Shout out to everybody, guys. Come on. I feel like doing a little dance today. You know You know what? Because this this this is this is the lifetime work.

[00:05:17]This is the lifetime work, guys. We saw this coming. We saw this happen. Our forefathers, I remember Julius Kambarage Nyerere in 1963.

[00:05:26]When he was there at Ghana, he gave a big speech and he was talking about these things. He was like He said this.

[00:05:32]This I'm going to paraphrase what he said. Julius Kambarage Nyerere, the forefather, he said this. He said, "Unity will not make us rich, but it will make it hard for them to take advantage of Africa.

[00:05:45]Because every time they come, they will see holding our hands together, they'll see us being together, they'll see us defending our continent, defending our people. It is going to be hard for them to take advantage of the continent. We just need unity. We just need to be one.

[00:06:00]1963, he said that. And at the same time, Kwame Nkrumah, who basically is one of the founders of Organization of African Union, which they we call African Union, he said this, and he wrote a book called Africa Must Unite, right now. 60-something years ago, he saw it coming.

[00:06:19]And that's when he gave the idea of neocolonialism. How this colonialism that we fought and got independence, how it's going to come back to us, run back to us in different forms and different shapes. 60-something years later, we are struggling with neocolonialism. You know what? But there's some brave [clears throat] leaders right now in the continent. I don't even care what wrong they are doing. I don't care for now.

[00:06:41]For now, I just celebrate for them removing visa restrictions for because African leaders right now are waking up and realizing that no, you know what?

[00:06:49]This visa issue, these passport issues, they are actually hindering us from being together. They're blocking us from being with our people. That's what they really realizing right now.

[00:07:01]Great African leaders are realizing right now. Let me tell you this. Leaders who are doing right now like that in your countries, I'm telling you, I don't care what you guys have done wrong. I don't care at this point. But I give you your flowers cuz a lot of leaders failed to do the same thing. They failed to do that.

[00:07:18]And as a result, you know what? Today, I will announce here publicly the next country that we are going to visit this year will be Burundi. We are going to Burundi. We actually planned that since last year. We were supposed to go to Burundi. Since last year, we were supposed to By the way, the way fact, if the Burundians here watching this video, you know, they will agree with me. I've been I've been actually communicating with some Burundian in Burundi, connecting with them before we go there.

[00:07:44]And [snorts] they were like, "Hey, I'm going to come there this year. I want to connect with you guys. I'm going to come there. I want to connect you. We want to do some stuff." I reached to some Burundian there, and some of them they reach out to me.

[00:07:54]I told my team to actually start doing research about Burundi, whatever what we're going to do there when we get there, to do some contact maybe even with the, you know, with the government so that they know that we are going there and everything. I wanted to tell my team, and my team have been doing a lot of work, you know, about that, trying to reach here. But you know, when it's a government thing it's a little bit bureaucratic, you know, it's going to take a long time. But we have already started to communicate since last year.

[00:08:19]Since last year I've been doing that.

[00:08:21]So, what I'm trying to say is this, is that Burundi, we are coming. Burundi, we are going to see our people. We are going to see our people. We've been preparing this since last year.

[00:08:36]And now is this year. And this what? Um Now, today, it just happened that visa restriction for Burundi is gone.

[00:08:48]It's just gone.

[00:08:49]Burundi, we are coming for you.

[00:08:52]Come on, guys. Come on, guys. Come on, guys. W Burundi in the comment section.

[00:08:56]I appreciate everybody who is joining.

[00:08:58]We have a lot of people watching us here uh on TikTok I see. And by the way, guys, the place I am here, I mean, the internet is not that stable. So, if you're having difficulties to hear me or to see me, it is because of the internet, all right? Um and and this is another fight we fight, you know, in in in the continent in Africa, you know.

[00:09:17]Internet right now is basic needs, but the internet is almost impossible to have. Oh my goodness. Anyways, today we are celebrating, forgetting about negativity. Today we are celebrating, all right? As long as you can hear me, that's fine. All right? Burundi, guys.

[00:09:31]Burundi, Burundi, Burundi has finally come out. Burundi, thank you, Burundi.

[00:09:37]Thank you for what you've done.

[00:09:39]Thank you for what you've done. Thank you, Ghana. Thank you, Togo. Thank you, Seychelles. Thank you, Rwanda. Thank you, Kenya. Thank you, Africa.

[00:09:48]This is what is supposed to happen. Now, this is the call.

[00:09:52]You know, if I were a president of South Africa, you know what I would do?

[00:09:56]Actually, at this time is the time that I'll remove visa restriction for all African countries.

[00:10:01]That's what I would do if I was a president of South Africa.

[00:10:03]The time that your fellow African brothers are being, um, you know, kind of like, you know, restricted and and things that are happening, you know, I'll do that so that I can invite more Africans to come in the country to defend fellow Africans.

[00:10:18]And it says, you know, you we need we need that, guys. We need this.

[00:10:21]Uh, we cannot be thinking like, okay, if a lot of Africans come to a country, they're going to take our jobs. If they come here, they're going to bring, you know, some some some whatever criminal activities, whatever. No, you know why?

[00:10:31]You know why we think like that? Because we don't have proper system yet. If we have one African army in the continent, they'll defend our countries. If you have people banging that, they'll they'll be able to defend our countries.

[00:10:42]But today it it is it is Burundi, guys.

[00:10:45]Burundi, shout-out to Burundi. Love you, Burundi, in the chat. You guys, you deserve it, and we are celebrating you because what you're doing today is what our forefathers dreamed of to happen today for our continent.

[00:11:00]They dreamed of that, and it's happening today, and we are celebrating you.

[00:11:05]I'm celebrating you. Man, I cannot [clears throat] wait. I'm coming to Burundi very soon, and I am excited.

[00:11:16]So, the lie began from the very beginning of time, right?

[00:11:20]And I can ask you one question right now.

[00:11:23]What does history tell us you about Africa? Who discovered Africa?

[00:11:28]If you write right now on Google who discovered Africa, you find out that is one white man that he came and discovered Africa. And you can ask yourself that how can you discover a place that already exist? How can you discover a place that people already live in that place? It is impossible, but that's what the history tells us.

[00:11:46]That's what people believe about Africa that it was discovered by a white man.

[00:11:50]This guy he came and then he went back, he gave a report and then the next we know is colonialism cuz those guys they sat somewhere >> [music] >> to divide Africa like a piece of cake because they discovered it, they own it, it belong to them. But that is us, we discovered, we're the first people to know. And today you have a lot of people around the world that they think that Africa was discovered by them.

[00:12:22]>> [music] [music] [music] [music] [music] [music] >> Mhm.

[00:17:34]>> Mhm.
