Why Did He Ditch Liberia & Move to Nairobi Kenya?

Roosevelt is such a humble and sweet soul. He was apprehensive about interviewing because he's camera shy, but he opened up more and more as the interview went on. He moved from Liberia to advance his professional career as a non profit officer. Nairobi, Kenya had better opportunities for him than Liberia so he decided to attend college here. When moving to Nairobi he was able to gain support from his small Liberian community of friends here. He likes Nairobi so much that he is considering not going back to Liberia once he finishes his degree. Great Chat!

    My country in Africa (Eritrea) denied everyone basic human rights such as freedom of speech, right to vote, subjected us to indefinite national service (slavery), the list continues... I love Kenya but if I stayed as an Eritrean refugee, I'd probably be homeless. Instead I came to the States with a scholarship and enjoy all the opportunities I couldn't back home. I dream of moving back to Kenya cos I don't feel like I belong here (I definitely get your point Brittney) but it's one thing to move back with the privileges of US passport and $$ that my African brothers don't have there. So yeah bruh, come here and go back with the resources that'd change your life back home.

    Im a American and faught for many rights during the 60's to change this system over here and we all have to do that we went up against this system and still doing so only then to watch others walk throught the doors of what we faugth and died for and this sytem still tries to deny us many things by law and voting rights we should have , I love this country it is the BLack man who built it and I love the privileges I do have there are many differences for one I have the right to speak and have the freedom to do so and march , there are certain areas there that have thier issues with African American one African told me he has a country and a flag that was a insult to me because if it were not for the likes of the African American many would not have the right to be here going to school working of living here we died have those doors opened , I could not come to Africa and be insulted or caught up in those type of feelings or if something should break out over there I would be the first to go because of the feelings towards me I have only seen one place here that has apologised to African Americans and that is Ghana who has begged us to come home and welcomed us to do so and help rebuild

    @@prettyeyes1752 Africans hate attitude. They have been looked down upon by colonialists for years and after independence, don't show them attitude. Most Africans go abroad on sports scholarships or academic. Others are human trafficked by organizations that pose as NGOs or foundations offering jobs. So if you came across this kind of group, you cannot say they are there courtesy of African Americans. It's noble to support the vulnerable. Such an attitude may have caused the response you received to show a flag. If you Respect others culture and space, am sure they will respect you. Even in Ghana am sure if you show them attitude they will withdraw. Otherwise sorry for the experience.

    @Stephen Odhiambo In Africa there is Bantus aka Negroes and Hamites. These are very different people. Nilotes including Luos are the true Egyptians. They were the Pharaohs in Egypt and that is why they are proud, arrogant and power hungry. Bantus aka Negroes are the true Israelites descendants of Jacob. Wazungu are red descendants of Esau who have deceived the whole world with fake white Jesus Cesar Bogea Christianity. The 10 tribes of Israel from the Northern Kingdom of Israel are hidden in Subsaharan Africa as Bantus (Zephania3:10-20). Judah (true Jews) and Benjamin are scattered in the Americas as slaves according to Deuteronomy 28:68.

    Brittany, they’ve even said Kibera is the largest slum in Africa, when it is a lie, it is not and has never been, and there are official statistics that are always ignored. The post election violence of 2017 was sponsored. Before then Kenya was referred to as a peaceful country. 1000 people died, a dot compared to civil wars and even what happened in Rwanda where 1 million people died, but they’ve labelled Kenya as not peaceful, yet many Kenyans would not even kill another Kenyan, and tribalism is not unique to Kenya either. Besides, Kenya hosts more refugees than many African countries, probably the highest on the continent, and people from neighboring countries run to Kenya for refuge. There have been 3 terror attacks, but people make it seem like there are bombs everyday in Kenya. The hunger situation normally affects about 2 million people in Northern Kenya, from a population of about 55 million people, but it is said Kenyans are starving..it is just ridiculous how people interpret these things.

    It’s not 1000 people that died. People that died in Nakuru, and the Rift Valley were more. They watered down the numbers to protect the ‘sponsors’ of those senseless killings. However, compared to other countries kenya is mostly peaceful Dave for political and tribal influences which I believe we have conquered.

I lived in China for 4 years and met couples of Africa Americans, to be honest I didn't like their vibe. The first time Brittney moved to Nairobi, I'm one of those who bashed her on social media. I felt like she had a lot of misrepresentation of Kenya just like the other black and white Americans I met in China. Well, since then have been glued to her channel and as a new subscriber today, I can call myself to be one of her fans. I like her questions, straightforwardness and open-minded.

    Just came across this conversation. Key take away is the internet(tech) part of the conversation. One thing is that Kenya is not so much endowed by natural resources such as oil or gold. It's biggest resource has turned out to be it's human capital. With that, competition is tough, then as a population, has to be creative, aggressive and innovative. Coupled with government programs, it has become quite easy for the tech space to be opened up. Say, the government has helped it's population leverage on its abilities through supportive programs. The internet and tech is quite a big market in Kenya, even to the remotest of places. It's turned out to be the biggest resource. According to studies, Kenyan's lives and their ecosystems depend averagely 70% on internet and tech. That's quite big.
