Why are Africans coming to Jamaica?
Africans make up their fair share of the population of expats to the Jamaican shore. They come to Jamaica for a plethora of reasons, from the food to the culture, the music and business possibilities. They are occupying space and living in a way that Jamaicans could learn a lesson or two.

There is a sizeable Nigerian 🇳🇬 community in Jamaica 🇯🇲. The only heart hospital in the entire Caribbean region was established in Kingston by a Nigerian called Dr. Madu.

Jamaicans and other African descendants in the Caribbean are most welcome in Africa. We should encourage reconnection and sharing of good things.

It's funny that you should say that because this is how the Jamaicans were in England during the Windrush era UK. They worked together, networking and helping each other and this included living/renting, buying houses together and also with African, mostly Nigerians at the time and some Ghanaian people too. In addition to this they were supporting their family back home. Some need to get that spirit again and jot just think about the self alone. 🙌🏾🙌🏽💝💝🇯🇲🇬🇧

When I was in Kinshasa, my friends and I used to attend concerts to remember Bob Marley. The artists were actually Congolese, "Zairoïs", at that time! Those who, like me, who weren't necessary 'Rasta' had impressible collection of Reggae artists. Admittedly, I knew more Jamaican artistes than other africans on the continents. Truth be told! We have seen the like of the great Lucky Dube, Alpha Blondy and others! I know, because now, at 63, i can remember that at 20, i was crazy about people like Black Uhuru, Jimmy Cliff (whom I attended his concert!), Steel Pulse (one of my favorite groups), Rita Marley, the Melody Makers, at that time (Marley family), and so on. You would think "we think Jamaixan" , though we didn't know the slight rhing about the slang we wish we spoke! We liked to say, "Yeah Man" 😂😂 So funn y when I think about my youth, and youth and young man time; everything seemed smooth despite problems that occurred: political and all the BS, onnrhe continent. We love Jamaica, because Jamaica NEVER deny us! "AFRICA UNITE' ( Bob Marley) has always been like an anthem; it's like a prophecy of somerhing that still need to be done. Ya heard me! Peace on Earth!

Yes spiritually Jamaicans and Africans are very close but we are kept apart because of the cost of visiting each other. It is time now for US to do something about that.

Not self hate, one can love themselves so much that they forget their own parents!
I love that people from the continent are living in Jamaica and love Jamaica. I WISH WE WOULD HAVE MORE OF OUR BROTHERS AND SISTERS FROM THE motherland than the chinese and wyte people...no joke!

The fact that Jamaica is so sought after, we will continue to have people coming to the Island from all walks of life... 🌟🎶💯
Well done content! Keep them coming. Your so right about Nigerian. They are among the most successful here in the US. Keep attracting African in general would be a big plus for Jamaica. However, the bad mine people, and gun man will kill them off including myself who has an HVAC business. Jamaican leave for Africa to fine wife. What is that saying about Jamaican women?? Make a content on that pls because I want to go to Africa for a wife, then, teach her Jamaican dishes.That would be a win win. Lol.

Thanks for joining in on the conversation! Some interesting points. The killing off people is very exaggerated. There are many people in the country who are doing business and getting on well. There are many people who encounter fatal experiences as business owners in US and other countries. An HVAC business would be a great venture in Jamaica. You should definitely SWOT it out. 💎💎
Does anyone have info for the Chika Village in jamaica? I would like to visit!

A wise man once said "for every black/Afrikan you see with a yt channel traveling, doing business and relocating to Afrika there are 100 more people who go but don't record it for online" (I'm assuming this goes for the Caribbean as extention. Many family from the continent also coming to the islands)

We certainly make an effort to highlight that there are many people who return or move to Jamaica and they do so quietly and are having a grand time. Some of them show up in the comment sections.

Africa is coming to the Caribbean, full stop. This is the result of an initiative started years ago by the then Prime Minister of the Republic of Trinidad and Tobago, Patrick Manning. He had visited West Africa and met with several leaders. There was a reciprocal visit by these leaders later. Links were established and areas of common interest were identified. It took some time but those initiatives are finally bearing fruit. The Africa Export Import Bank is currently in negotiations to set up operations in the Caribbean.

Jamaika is 55th country of Afrika. Jamaika should be playing in Afrikan Cup of Nations and have access in all Afrikan activities just like Israel, Australia has with Europe

Big up to the Nigerians, welcome with the highest Intelligence In Africa and your highly educated minds..Jamaicans need to know that a part from Ghana their are a high number of Nigerian descendants too. I hope All who are coming will be coming g with their Incomes and batchelors ..if they come and are lazy and broke..Jamaica will end up like some of the dilapidated places on the continent.

The immigration better be vetting whose coming..if they have no education and no funds they are not going back.. and until you visit their countries and see how they treat a diasporan do not take them at face value, as very many do not care about you..
