So today we're going to talk about the 11 African countries that are offering citizenship to African-Americans and the diaspora so let's go my name is Ambassador Tim Ford Jr of the African Union Au and I've been living over in East Africa Tanzania for almost five years now and I help my people invest rebuild and return over to the continent of Africa but today I want to get right to the point and talk about the 11 countries who are welcoming us back home just as long as we have ancestral DNA that traces us back to these countries so let's go but first I would like to discuss how these different countries offering citizenship to us as a people is extremely symbolic and is an attempt to strengthen the ties between us and our people over on the continent of Africa a lot of our people here on the continent of Africa know what we have been going through as a people and they understand what has went on throughout history and how they've done some wrongs and some of our people have actually been a part of us being in a situation that we were in over in the United States of America so in an attempt to the wrongs that's been caused throughout history a lot of the countries are trying to rectify the situation by actually offering citizenship to our people who can prove that they are descendants and have ancestrial bloodline links back to particular countries so I'm excited to talk about these different countries because it's a step in the right direction towards the unification of us actually coming together as a people so let's go so the first country we're going to talk about is Ghana so Ghana has a right of a bold law in place which gives people who have ancestry links back to that land the ability to move over into Ghana and not have to worry about the Visa and permits process that you have to go through as a foreigner when you decide to go to different countries and all you have to do in order to gain this citizenship is prove your ancestry to GH by DNA test or you can use a family treat or birth certificate as an official document in order to prove that you have lineage over in Ghana and one of the main resources that's over in Ghana is Coco if you're someone who's thinking about coming over to the continent of Africa and you have ancestry that links you back to Ghana you can think about and do research about the Coco industry and learn about how you can actually go over to the country of Ghana and help the country produce it in a more efficient way and help it reach a higher level that's a great way to go into the country and be of an asset instead of going over there and trying to ask for a handout one thing we must do and consider is always go over to these countries and be an asset whichever country you decide to go to please go over there and be an asset do not go over there with your hand out and say oh I came from America oh roll out the red carpet I understand that but that privilege that we are accustomed to over in America that doesn't come unless you put in a whole bunch of work you can't come over here and feel like you have this privilege because you come over from America and everything's supposed to be opened up for you if they give you citizenship if they give you a way to get into into the country take advantage of that by putting in the work and making the necessary connections and moves in order to do what you need to do okay but that's enough of my rent let's go to the next Country Now the next country is Zimbabwe and just like Ghana you must prove that you have Zimbabwe and descent and you will be eligible for the opportunity to gain dual citizenship over in Zimbabwe and Zimbabwe even have incentives in place in order to entice people to come over like tax breaks business grants and even scholarships to help entrepreneurs who are trying to come over and help develop their country and with minerals like Chrome gold lithium coil and diamonds there is a tremendous space and opportunity for those who are trying to go into any of those Industries and help mine those and help produce those on a large scale within the country even if you're trying to do things on a small scale if you go into any industry and mine and help the minerals produce in any type of way you would be of an extreme asset to that country and they would love you as a citizen and you will be able to work with them and partner in a way that's beneficial to everyone the next country is Nigeria and Nigeria made the decision to offer dual citizenship as a desire to acknowledge the shared Heritage that binds the country with his brothers and sisters abroad Nigeria has long been one of the Nations that we as a people reference when we think about what life would be like over on the continent Nigeria has always been one of the poster Childs over in America for how Africa would really Beast most of the times when we meet Nigerians we think of all Africans as Nigerians and with the rich cultural history and the legacy of resilience this is a great nation for us as a people to join with and learn from as we get accustomed to life over on the continent of Africa and with minerals like petroleum fuel clothes and personal care products there's tremendous opportunity once again many of those sectors to help the country move forward since we're here got to show y'all some of the products real quick [Music] na na yeah natural product natural yeah yes yeah come closer come be and next we have South Africa now in order to get citizenship in South Africa once also have to prove that have ancestral ties over to that specific area and with minerals like gold Platinum Group Metals Chrome ore and magnesium ore which is used to make steel this is a great country to tap into and go and connect with and build with in order to learn how to conduct life over here on the continent of Africa we are looking for different places and countries that are trying to welcome us back home and be the best place and will give us at least some sort of South landing and give us a way to get comfortable and acclimated at a nice rate it seems like a great option for our people to be able to go into and get acclimated in a timely manner and next we have gabone all you have to do is prove that you have ancestral ties over to this particular country and you will be able to get dual citizenship their main minerals over in their country are oil and they have two billion tons of iron ore and they also have the largest deposit in the world of magnesium so magnesium is the number one ingredient that is used to make steel so all of the steel products that you see all around the world the source of that is actually over in gabone so once again there's another way and another industry for you to be able to come in and position yourself in a way that'll be beneficial for you to be able to help the country and your people and don't just look into the minerals of these countries as well look into the people look into the infrastructure look into different ways that you can support many different Industries in order to help them develop and reach to a level that we all know that we're supposed to be reaching as a people if you have a particular skill set in a certain field or certain area take that expertise over to whichever country you decide to move to and give that to your people and help them to understand what they can do with the knowledge that you are passing to them and we will see things grow in a way that it needs to be grown now I'm talking about minerals as the main point when I speak about these countries but you also have to think about the grand scheme of running an entire country so there's a lot that goes into running countries and I can't just speak about every single sector and every single way that people can help but use your particular skill set and your particular set of knowledge that you have to see how you can benefit and help that country at the same time okay that's what this game is all about use your skill set in order to get what you need and help the people at the same time and next we have Sagal now just like all the other countries you must prove that you have ancestral ties over to the country of Sagal as well and in order to gain citizenship over in Sagal you also had to prove that your grandparent or your great grandparent was born in Sagal as well and the main mineral that's over in Sagal is phosphates of lime which is used in many of the fertilizers that's in stores and shops around the world next we have the country of Angola and of course once again you must prove that you have ancestral ties to that country in order to receive the dual citizenship and the main minerals over in Angola are oil and gas and Angola is the second largest producer of gas over in subsaharan Africa at 1.55 million barrels a day there's no shortage of opportunity to extract the gas out of the ground and be able to produce it and ship it around the world and get it to the people who need it in order to help the country and of course help yourself as well in the process of you helping people and the next country we have is Rwanda and once again you must prove that you have ancestral ties over to Rwanda in order to receive the dual citizenship in that Country Now Rwanda has been Paving the way and being Progressive and helping our people and vocalizing and standing up for the entire continent with their president Paul kagami in power with a lot of the policies that he has in place he's helped Randa reach level that has gained International recognition and keali Rwanda has recently been named the cleanest country over in Africa and I actually had the chance to live over in keali Rwanda for a month and it's not a lie that country is very very clean it's very chill and I love the vibe that it has over there but one thing I can admit that the police do not play they are making sure that they're handling the business and on security and doing what they need to do but the main mineral that's in production over in Rwanda is Cobalt which is a mineral used in many of the electronic devices that we have and use around the world so I mean that's self-explanatory if you can go over there and help and get into the industry of making cell phones or producing the products or the minerals that go into those cell phones that's a great way to help and generate something for yourself and your people and be able to do something that has never been done before many of us coming over from America are looking for opportunities and are looking for ways to to be of help and of service to our people so we must look into Arenas that we haven't been before in order to help and be of service over here because there are so many needs and so many opportunities we can't just always focus on what we know sometimes we have to go and learn new things if we see that there's an opportunity within that don't be afraid to go and pick up the necessary knowledge in order to go into that field and produce something of value don't just say oh I don't know that I'm going to leave that alone no if you see that's a good if you understand that that's something that you need to learn just make the sacrifices in order to learn what to do in that Arena and you'll make it happen the next country we have is Zambia and just like all of the other countries I mentioned you have to have ancestry that links you back to that particular country but they have a plethora of minerals like gold Cobalt zinc petroleum fresh water and they're the world's leader in Copper now this is a lot of space and opportunity for those the right mindset and can see the vision of what you can do with those type of minerals and I'm mentioning minerals because I want our people to tap into that mindset of understanding that we need to be the source we need to go to places and be strategic about what we do and where we land so that we can be the source that help people moving forward my entire vision for my life and I hope I Inspire others to think this way as well is to be a producer so that people around the world can come to me or my family for what they need and if you provide a service that produce something that helps people your family will never have to worry about finances ever ever again so develop the mindset of being a producer trying to figure out which minerals are used for what so that you can position yourself properly during these times and next we have guinea Bol and just like all of the other countries once again you must trace your DNA back to this particular country but one benefit I've learned that comes with tracing your heritage back to the guinea Bas people is if you learn that you're one of the ban people you could actually join this panafrican Heritage group called Banta basa and they're helping people gain citizenship over in Guinea basau so they actually take your hand and walk with you through the entire process if you found out that you had Heritage with their people if you do your African ancestry and find out that you have any basar running in your veins and you can go over to that country I want you guys to look into the bant people and see how you can join with them in order to get help getting your citizenship over in that country and of course the main minerals over in guine basau is Timber and fish so opportunities are endless within those sectors because if you want to go into Timber you can of course get the Machinery in order to cut the trees down in order to transport the trees to the locations that they need to go to or even get the machines in order to make the wood into what they need to be made into so there's a lot of ways and of course with fishing you can do boats you can do Transportation there's a lot of ways that you can take advantage and join the country and help the people so that you can help yourself last but certainly certainly not least at number 11 we have Bina basau we all see what president Captain Ibraham tror is doing over in Bina faal right now one of the most recent things he's done is opened up the door to his people to be able to come back home and get citizenship over in his country if you want to come with him and come over there and build with the people of Bina FAA and just like all the other countries you must trace your African ancestry back over to binau in order to take advantage of this opportunity of gaining citizenship bye love you and there's another company called add which is the African diaspora development Institute and they're spearheading and trying to help our people with the process of getting citizenship over in Bina led by ambassador Dr Eric kaniqua she's been Paving the way and helping our people learning about the continent of Africa and connecting the diaspora with the right countries to do the right thing so that we can come together as a people so if you're thinking about trying to figure out how to get citizenship over in Bina look into the add so that you can get the information that you need and get help with getting the citizenship over there you don't have to necessarily go through the add that I just mentioned or the Banta basa people that I just mentioned with B saw the choice is yours but those entities are in place in order to help you with the process of getting into citizenship now I'm not saying go directly to them in order to do it you can still take your own route and go to the government yourself and go through the process yourself if that's something that you want to do but with all the countries that I just recommended I recommend doing your own independent research don't just use this video that you're watching right now as the only means of research that you do please do independent research and look into the country look into the fullness of what everything takes look into what you need to do in order to be in a good standing when you decide to make the move to go over and try and obtain citizenship in that particular country now we're being caught home as a people a lot of our brothers and sisters over on the continent are welcoming us back home this is just 11 countries that I mentioned right now but there's 54 different countries over here on the continent of Africa and it is my belief and my hope that one day all 54 countries will be welcoming us back and we will be able to gain citizenship and go to whichever country that we have Len too we have Pathways in place now we just have to take them and take advantage of the opportunity with these 11 countries in place there's no excuses anymore we can't say that our people don't want us we can't say that we're hated we can't say that it's not love over here they're not trying to build with us it's open it's right in our faces they have programs in place they have incentives in place to welcome us back home so that we can lock arms as a people so we just have to walk down a path and Trust the process these paths that we are going down they are new Uncharted Territory so you must be okay with going down that path alone you must be okay with going down that path maybe blind but you must go down the path if you feeling the C if you're feeling the pool from one of these African countries because our brothers and sisters need us and we need them so it's important that we take advantage of these Pathways and come lock arms with our brothers and sisters take advantage of these opportunities that we have during these times and do not live in fear if you don't take advantage of these times if you don't take advantage of the opportunity that we have as a people right now your bloodline may suffer you may not put your family in the best position that you know you're supposed to be doing right now you're feeling a call you're feeling something telling you to go to Africa so take advantage and do what you need to do to get your mind right to get your finances right to get your spirit right in order to come over here and be the best version of yourself to do what you need to do on this side of the world we were lied to about what life is like over here on the continent we were told they hate us over here we were told there isn't much opportunity we were told this is just a place that's riddled with disease and there's not much that we can do right now but I've been on the ground for almost five years now like I said in the beginning and I've been shown nothing but love and peace and joy since I've been over here of course there's haters of course there's jealousy but for the most part it's nothing like we've been taught so we have to change the Narrative of listening to what they told us and rewrite our own narrative about what life is like over here on the continent of Africa so take advantage of the opportunity that we have as a people before history be written without you being a part of it don't allow fear to stop you and you there nothing but false evidence appearing real all right trust me now I'm excited to hear what you guys think about the different countries it's offering citizenship to us as a people and which country are you thinking about going to if you have your ancest that traces you back to their particular land of course but of
