When alot of people in North America think of Africa they think that its all mud houses and sh*t. Dont let T.V. lie to you I went to Nigeria for the 1st time since i left when I was 1 year and thought it was goin to be the sh*ttest holiday ever. But word it turned to be amazing I was able to connect to my roots and be more proud to be where I come from and have a good time hanging with my family who live there. People do not sleep on Africa if we didn't have such corrupt leaders who take billions of dollars to them selves i say Africa would be one of the richest continents. Yes Africa has its bad parts but every country does. I guess the reason why I made this thread is to show you guys how good this place is and if you ever think of going there you wont be disapointed.

Im glad you made this post to show ppl that Africa is a developed place with cities and paved streets etc. and not jungles and huts. Ive always hated that misconception especially since my step dad is from ghana, and he says he has never even seen a lion or a tiger and all that sh*t the media wants you to believe is just walkin around. Dont believe the hype experience and learn it for yourself.
