sokiking2 wrote: “Interesting… however when they see black folks in their countries, (Asian countries) they act like we have no business being there. Africa is the only continent that gives more importance to foreigners than their own. If you see and hear how black people are treated in Asia…in India too…you will feel sorry for our race..but no…after insulting us…they carry their cargo because of over saturation in their countries and come to live in Africa.”
l.tobiloba stated: “They always have fun more in exile than their home country. 😂😂.”
tracyokito opined: “See them enjoying life, living first-class citizen lifestyle but Nigerians in their country face racism every day.”
