Become a Paid Subscriber: https://anchor.fm/the-african-diary/subscribe Welcome to The African Diary. The journey of an African storyteller navigating this ruthless world but still able to find beauty in life. The hope is to bring together Africans (those at home & abroad) under African baobab tree through storytelling, and in the process disrupt the romance between the rest of the world and their love for the images of malnourished African children, and refute the lie that says migrating to the West guarantees a better way of life. The aim is not to upset anyone, but if in the process it happens… then, it was meant to.

I believe Africans in the diaspora can play a key role in stopping or at least reduce the flow of the migrants crisis in the shores of the West. This is my two cents in the conversation. I do not promote nor encourage it.
