This fills my heart with so much joy. The original meaning of Jamaica is jama ya ka (which in the Akan language means ‘maybe we are stuck’). Jamaica and Ghana have a lot in common. They even look Ghanaian. Their festivals and food are similar to Ghana’s. I pray the scales on the eyes of the Caribbean people will fall off and they begin to embrace their ancestry. God bless Africa🙏🏾

Ghana gets a lot of love from Jamaica.

I’m Haitian eating Jamaican 🇯🇲 food as I watch this interview from the motherland Africa ⭕️

I’m Jamaican and I love Africa on a whole!!! Ghana 🇬🇭 I’m coming to visit!!! 🇯🇲🇬🇭

Fantastic interview held by Maya.Jamaica is Ghana

"Any black man anywhere in this world is an African" Powerful statement Kudos to Ghana for taking the lead in welcoming our people home

I went Jamaica earlier on this year and trust, it's just like being in Ghana. Plus Jamaican people are some of the nicest people on earth. 🇬🇭

O my days I am so emotional we eat some a the same meal but we call the meal a different name wow , a Jamaicans with wodemaya , wow , I rate u wodemaya

Ghana is indeed motherland I feel at home each time I am there.

U made my eyes 'water' when you mentioned Marcus Garvey. To all our cousins in Jamaica and Jamaicans in the diaspora, we love you all.

Wode maya am Jamaican am i also love Ghana plus most Jamaican identified with west Africa especially Ghana .

Really that is right .any black man anywhere is an African 😂 ilove africa from Somalia🇸🇴🇬🇭

Haiti is coming too pretty soon

There are thousands of Jamaicans living in Ghana ..the Marley family still here ..over 20yrs

We must go to Afrika

Thank you for visiting Nigeria bro. We love to see you in Nigeria again

Love this interview. Jamaican living in UK, coming to Ghana

Nuff Respect I was born in U.K. (my parents Jamaican/Barbadian) I moved back to Caribbean and I love been in Black rule land. Love this video

Yo wode when you got to Jamaica go see the maroons, you’ll see the akan culture.

I am Jamaican can't wait to visit Ghana

My people are from Jamaica but I am a proud African. We were not slaves, we were enslaved. We are the children of the kidnapped people. Many of the words we use are from Ghana. Africa to the world.

Many West Africans taken from the Ghana region were taken to the now island of Jamaica. This is the first time that I have heard that Jamaicans call Kenke " Doknou". My family is from Ghana and my mom always called it Doknou....intresting.

Hailing from St Ann to senegal 23 yrs and no regrets!

The maroons ancestry is from Ghana,who are relatives of the Ashanti’s.Our ancestors are from different parts of Africa.I don’t know of too many Jamaican that don’t embrace their heritage.

Jamaican currently living in Ghana here, Africa to the world! God Bless Ghana and i hope she continues to show us love.

Great video as usual. Kenkey is also called Dorkonu( I know I spelled it wrong) in Akan as well. I love Jamaica 🇯🇲

Jamaica is here! Been waiting, thanks fi that.

Yes brother, finally you find a Jamaican. The similarities between Ghana and Jamaica is undeniable; majority of our retained African history, culture, dialect is traced directly to Ghana.

HAITIAN is on the way to the motherland

The year of return on Marcus Garvey Earthstrong. The Ghanian President has recently visited Jamaica, and re-energie the 400 years since the trans-atlantic trade.

Wow Grandma such a lovely person.. I’m visiting Jamaica 🇯🇲 to see for my self ... kudus Maya

I am Cameroonian and my mother is from Jamaica. We did the ancestry test and found her heritage is mostly from the Ghana /Ivory Coast area

I hope you enjoy your stay in Nigeria.. Maya.. We love you.. One love Africa..

Omg I'm glad you find a Jamaican there I'm also from jamaica.love Ghana love u guys in Ghana respect maya 🇯🇲🇯🇲🇯🇲🇯🇲

AFRICA AND AFRICANS ALL OVER THE WORLD ARE ONE; AFRICA ALL THE WAY.

I'm Canadian in Jamaica just met grandma daintyann out here at night promoting you

I am white from the UK, but its wonderful to see people reconnect with their heritage.ghana is a wonderful country with wonderful people and i long to return again. To anyone thinking on it.... just go, you will not regret it.

Look at our brothers and sisters in Jamaica. I love my beautiful black people.. Thanks Wode 💯💯💯👏👏👏❤👏😘😘😘👏❤⭐

I love Jamaicans so much......Jamaicans have been so good to me and that’s why I always call Jamaica small Africa.

"mama AFRICAAAAA; how are you doing, mamaaaaaa; mama, AFRICAAAAA, we love you; MAMAAAAAAA"; (PETER TOSH)!!!!!!!!

Jamaicans and African-Americans who have moved to my motherland Ghana are inspiring me to move back to Ghana. 🙏🙏🙏🙏

Nuff respect, I am a Jamaican who loves Africa. Ghana is home for real

Jamaica is exactly like Ghana just that it's way smaller

This is such a great video 💯

The livelihood of the black American & Caribbean are Afrikan lifestyle assimilating will be a breeze

Seriously one thing I don't like about this world is that why will people dislike this video and they saw the title before clicking if you know you gonna dislike the content of the video why clicked it. And the most annoying part of it is they don't know it hot to dislike someone's content because it takes guy time to make this video and even the old man and woman. Please and please if you know you don't like any content of any vloger you don't have to throw it on his or her face because it not easy. please no body should insult me I just said my mind, if you agree with me on this please show me some love

Ghana and Jamaica share most things in common. My government and history teacher told me that most of Jamaicans come from Ghana. Ghana is really a home for all. God bless you, Wode Maaaaaaaaaya for this fantastic video

where's my Jamaicans at.big up yourself Moya

In Benin we call kenkey dakunu too

Proud Jamaican 🌏🇯🇲🇯🇲🇯🇲🇯🇲🇯🇲

I am Jamaican living in America, I can't wait to visit Ghana🇬🇭🇯🇲🇬🇭🇯🇲🇬🇭🇯🇲🇬🇭🇯🇲🇬🇭🇯🇲🇬🇭 my country origin

We are one. There is a town called Abeokuta in Jamaica. To me, it shows that you can't erase a blood line, love to Jamaicans and pardon the past... Ayaaa Maaya, you are a star.

DOMINICA (Ashanti) in the house...Blessings to the Mother Land

As a person from the Caribbean, St. Vincent and the Grenadiens, living in the US. I can't wait to visit Africa and Ghana. Though, I do believe that my root is Ghanian, have to check. I really want to make it to Ghana this year!

Love to ghana from russia

Love it. Jamaican here did the dna study and yes 75% west African with the majority Ghana, i will be going in November im very excited.

Speaking facts most Jamaicans are having roots in Ghana and Gambia.

Love this i am Jamaica living in Africa and they right Africa is home

Maya you made this video just for me. I love everything about this couple. Here is the deal: The British long ago established a Museum of some sort, to highlight their involvement in slavery; and their records state that almost all the slaves they brought to Jamaica, came from Ghana, (I learned this from KZfaq actually). That is why, just as expressed by Naomi, I see striking similarities between both of our people. I know without doubt, that none of us could determine each others nationality, without hearing the accent. I am 67 now, and though I love Africa dearly, and particularly Ghana, there is no sense in relocating at this stage in my life. However, African Americans NEED to relocate. After emancipation we Jamaicans, and other Caribbean people who were enslaved by the British, were empowered to start laying foundations however insignificant, toward independence. Emancipation in the US, was a charade. African Americans have never known true freedom, have never been allowed to breathe, and it continues until today. What has, and continues to be, in America, is a travesty, and an abomination. I will come back to this another day. Is it enough to declare a year of return? My view is, the majority who would gladly return, are poor and haven't the resources to sustain themselves until established. I encourage Ghana to examine that. In the meantime, peace and love to my family. Love blackness. Love Africa, regardless.

The Jamaican culture is unique and admirable 👌👌

Where are my Jamaicans ? Represent I am from that 40% ancestors center from Ghana

The love Jamaicans have for Ghana is incredible i meet few in Ghana and they are soo lovely

I’m visiting Ghana 🇬🇭 in December for The Year of Return & Afrochella. I’m so excited!

When you come off the plane and as soon as you touch the African soils its like the whole pressures of life are lifted away from you 😭🙌🙌... I reasonate with this feeling so much 😩😵 especially when I travel home from UK to Uganda. Blessings to you family and I am glad you found your way back home in Ghana 💜💙💛

Those guys are very amazing, most of jamaicans called their selves African like Bob Marley does... that was a nice show and thanks

Love from Trinidad and Tobago, love to you Ghana and the rest of African......

I’m a Jamaican living in America. I’m watching this on July 11, 2020. My husband and I are thinking about moving to Africa. I’m obsessed with watching videos about the diaspora moving back to Africa.

Ghana is amazing I love it there my husband is Ghanaian

A lot of Jamaican are originally from Ghana anyway and taken to Jamaica

Thanks Wode Maya for taking Africa to the world. A Jamaican 🇯🇲 KZfaqr...living in the US 🇺🇸who want to visit Ghana🇬🇭 one day.

An eye opener indeed. Come to think of it, Wode Maya is a Jamaican
