These women are being murdered in cold blood due to jealousy in my opinion.

I hear you about Europesans buying lands and enjoying priveleges and Africans seem to be ok with, but when black american just buy a lot to build a modest home, then they object. The mentality is outrageous.

Whenever you arrive in Africa, and for that matter, in any "Third World Country", the very first thing you should do is to go to YOUR EMBASSY/HIGH COMMISSION in the host country and REGISTER your presence there. If you experience any life-threatening difficulties, your embassy will help you return to your country. You will then pay for the cost of return once you are safely home.

If this trend is noticeable then avoid going to the Gambia

Trust no soul in Gambia. I don't hate my country but our culture towards materialism has made us monsters and godless people. Its even breaks my heart to call myself a Gambian.

All skin folk aint kin folk SMH 😢

I want justice for all these ladies but why move to a third world country and complain about third world things? The Gambia has zero appeal.

Thank you for bringing this to light. Unfortunately, I think too many black Americans "romanticize" going to live in Africa. They probably left the U.S. in order to try to have a better life and to feel more "safe" and "accepted". Unfortunately that is not what happened. It breaks my heart...

I also saw a video where they said the Africans felt that they can't afford to buy land and no black Foreigner is coming over here and buying their grandparents land that they can't afford and they was getting rid of them. Going over there sounds like getting out of the frying pan jumping in the skillet

I said this years ago when this repatriation to Africa started. Our western behavior of documenting things is great for Americans but many third work countries see it as an attempt to uncover their misdeeds. We have to be careful because many Gambians see Americans as arrogant. Obviously this does not constitute to harm someone.

A black British women was murdered a few days ago in the Gambia RIP Shakina

The same case is going on in Ghana and other African countries 🤦🏾‍♀️

Excellent Post. In my humble opinion, I strongly believe that Black people who have been raised in the diaspora should do more research before moving to another country. The attitudes towards single people varies from country to country. Also remember that many cultures do not value individualism in the way that it is valued in Western/European cultures. As an African American, I would not move to any country on the African continent without first reading Dr. Rudolph Windsor’s books.

These hexes and curses happen in ATL, GA as well. We are evil against each other for no dang reason. Envy is usually the root.

There is now Shakina who was 60 yrs old. Apparently they found her body beaten and tossed by the home she was building in the Gambia. This is so unreal and extremely sad.

Idk. Fasting doesn't kill you it heals you.

As a blk American who has lived in Niger. Mind your business. Don't go over there reporting on people's practices. Africa is not America. The same rules don't apply. Don't be a busy body. Don't say bad things about their country. don't put people or anything on blast. Things are what they are, period. I feel like people should know this. Move in wisdom. Also, I don't do anything alone. I go though people who are from the country. I do what they say. I don't live alone. I always had allies. Blend in with the culture. Partake in the culture. Sorry to hear this. I've had minor situations but I found that life was easier when I assimilated. Survive, don't fight the system.

You need a round trip ticket AND a place to stay in America. Don't go to live abroad unless you have a home to come back to.

Hospital in The Gambia is a joke

Unfortunately another sister from the UK passed recently. They found her at the home she was building. Something is definitely going on.

This is so unfortunate on many levels. I’d wanted to visit the Gambia after meeting a tour guide during my visit to Senegal 🇸🇳 in 2022. Clearly it’s not safe for BW, so I’m scratching it off my to-see list. And to be honest, I don’t understand how any BW would remain there knowing there’s a target on the backs of Black women. Thank you for this video.

I found this video extremely eye opening. Sharing in my Black women travel groups and on Black women centered pages and spaces.

That's why I'm all for us Black Americans to build our communities where our ancestors made a way here in America. But if you choose to go to Africa, be careful my Brothers and Sisters and do your due diligence on the Countries you're visiting. Take care of each other, have meet and greets with fellow Americans to keep in contact with each other...just be safe!

Thanks, i wont travel there at all. It was on my lists, now i will scratch them off my lists....thanks very much for the information....

Art Kathy may be a big reason for this. She went to live in the Gambia from America. She dogg walked the women there. She talked about how they smelled and how the living standards were. Every day she came on line putting those ppl down really bad. She started telling ppl how easy it was to come there and create businesses. She started collecting money from ppl in the states that took her word that she was buying apartments for them and would have them ready when they got there. She scammed them. One American woman and a friend went and found they had been scammed. Once Kathy went in a store and when she came out the ladies ask her name and she told them and they jumped her. Ran her out of the Gambia. I believe the ppl there remembered her and didn't want America'ns coming to live there. Look her up on KZfaq. She is now back in the states.

Im African American with Gambian friends in Gambia. Five sistas dead within a year is definitely alarming. I will look into this. What I know is that there are AAs Gambia doing well (as you noted). I have been to Gambia twice, but Im more knowledgeable about Ghana. Single Black American women in Ghana are doing great.

I know I will be blasted for this. I don't think single black women should expat without the protection of a man.

It is really not safe for single women to be travelling in these poor African countries alone. It does not matter if you are black or white. Most of these poor locals will target you thinking that you have money because you are from a foreign land. They follow you around everywhere trying to befriend you just to get something out of you or use you as an opportunity to travel out of the country. If you don't have a serious male companion who can protect you, it is really very dangerous. I am very sad this is happening in the Gambia. They are good people, but some of them are so poor and desperate they can do anything for material gain. This is the second video I watched talking about these sad stories Thanks for spreading the information. People should be aware and be careful.

I know many black Brits who are having issues OR had issues in The Gambia 🇬🇲. I’ve visited a good few times but getting robbed or disrespected is normal. There’s a strong black British community there.

It's sad news. May their souls rest in perfect peace. Even Gambians know that Gambia is not what it used to be. The country has lots of migrants from all over the world. This is not about being a black American issue only. Just last month an innocent worker a Gambian was stabbed to death in her work place n many other situations where a Gambian girl fell a victim of such attacks resulting to losing their lives. Our sincere condolences to their respective families.

It's sad because we are hated all over the world are all people that look like us and other countries hate us too but they are scared of the white and yellow and brown man. You could not pay me to live in other countries for nothing. 😡😔😏🤦🏽‍♀️🤷🏽‍♀️

My brother passed away in the gambia in 2009 😢 unexpectedly...

6 women now. A lady called Shakina was most recently beaten to death and thrown down a well on her property.

That's no different than Ghana giving black people land for a hundred years. You cannot give the land to your children so soon as you die it goes back to Ghana and a Ghanian has a free house that an American built. Something they never had before Free land, free house ,free water well

Another female age 60 from the UK was just found murdered this week on her compound. Her name is Shanika Chinedu.

The sad and strange thing about these mysterious deaths is Gambians and most African Americans who live in Gambia and have a KZfaq channel are not talking about these deaths.You will find just 1 or 2 KZfaq channels from the Gambia talking these deaths.

Wow, this is so sad. And I had plans to visit and live in the Gambia. Uneducated people tend to fear those who are able to do things that cannot do anywhere in the world. So sad.

These ladies have no family or friends who can take the bodies back to America/ uk for independent autopsies??

These people will NEVER prosper as they continue to not take accountability, gaslight, kill, steal, destroy as a way of going against the Ancestors' wishes to return the souls of their decendants back to their native land. How ruthless and disgusting! Shame on you Gambia! R.I.P. to the departed souls of all my beautiful Sisters who mysteriously died. 🙏🏾♥️✨️

6:40 I hear u on that one. As an African who lived briefly in North America native Africans don't take too well to INDIVIDUALISM and witchcraft isn't a joke here in Africa.

I'm Black American living in The Gambia and I experienced a lot of jealously just by my presence and accent quickly I noticed the behavior of the people and I decided to make sure I live around wealthy people the attitude of the staff and neighbors are much better. I'm just here for a year and I came to relax so I'm rarely out and about socializing. I would love to meet some other black Americans it be nice to be understood and not judged.

Unless your parents are from Africa you are not African. If your grandparents are in their late 60s and 70s age group your are not African. You have been deceived with this all out of Africa and the slave trade. Pls research. Watch video The truth about Jamaica and Jamaicans. It relates also for the whole north, South America and Caribbean areas.

Robbery is highest in America and UK than anywhere in the world.

I might be reaching but there was this KZfaqr “Art Cathey” who moved to the Gambia who basically told her follows that basically they should come to the Gambia and take over because the people were stupid. It caused a great problem she went on the run to another part of Africa. Could it be they now see American woman with some means as a threat. Like I said I could be teaching this was like in 2021.

Should I ask who gets their estate

One other advice, if you are not from the country that host you in Africa, please keep your opinions to yourself, I know that in the US you have free speech, we do not have that much of that here, especially when it looks like you are attacking the government, culture, practises and economy.

Thank you for sharing this in such a detailed, caring manner. May the souls of these women find peace in their next lives. And may the wicked receive justice.

This is very disturbing!! Thank you for all of your work ..

Gambia had an opportunity to become strong and prosperous with us linking together, but jealousy and envy will prevent this from happening. The entire country will suffer from these losses. Their deaths will not go in vain.

New to your channel. I stopped following Gambian news/events a couple of years ago. The death of Andrea Martin caught my attention. Apparently, a sixth woman has died recently. Shakina Chinedu was a British attorney, aged 60 and specializing in land purchases for ex-pats. She was found at the bottom of the well on property she was in the process of developing. She had been traveling back and forth to Gambia for the last 14 years or so, and had settled in Gambia 5 years ago. From the clips I have seen of her, she was very poised, well-spoken and an elegant woman. There are a lot of things about this pattern of deaths of middle-aged Black women that raise alarm bells. What I find really odd is the way some of the men, in particular African American men living in Gambia and/or Africa or traveling a lot to Africa who want to blame Black women for the deaths of the victims. One black male youtuber came right out and said Black single women should not go to Gambia, period. "It's not safe," he said. Then he launched into an extensive diatribe about how Black women, more specifically, "feminists" roll their eyes and document all the bad things in Gambia. Huh? What does feminism have to do with documenting/exposing problems in a community? That same youtuber pointed out that so-called whyte tourists in Gambia mind their own business and that's why no one is trying to kill them. Others have come out and said single black women need a man, basically. I understand countries like Gambia are conservative, but there's something twisted in their logic. They don't want to deal with a mature and economically independent black woman, but they have no problem with the middle-aged wyte woman who comes to Gambia for a hook-up. Is that normal? Gambia has a reputation for s*x trafficking. How does that square with islam? I've seen comments, presumably from men expressing schadenfreude. They write: "How's the independent woman thing working out for you, black woman?" There's something unbelievably petty and nasty about these reactions. In the end perhaps these victims' dreams of a better Gambia were misplaced. The dreams these women had for Gambia were not shared by the very people they thought they were helping. I watched a video from a young man in Kenya, and he said a lot of Africans are jealous of Western black people, and will seek to do them harm. But these were older women. Why pick on them? A few years ago I was actively researching ways to start a business in Africa. Now, I have no desire to live there. I know Gambia is just one country. But Africa seems like it is more interested in having Chinese and Europeans settle there than for diasporans to come to Africa. I think it's time African Americans really re-visit the dreams and aspirations we have of Africa. It's not easy living in the States or Europe for that matter, but Africa is not the solution we think it is. Of course I have no idea where we can go. We are not wanted in the States. Africa seems kind of dicey. So where to? I pray the six women who recently passed away find repose in God's divine kingdom.

Thank you for making this video I was thinking of moving to africa but this makes me rethink my plan.

Oh damn....let me put on the breaks! Thank you for mentioning other foreigners not being touched.

People are so excited sometimes to leave the mess in the West,and this overshadows some details sometimes. we're also excited to be home,and get carried away by emotions,and so we ignore again little details that are/can be life saving. I'm a diasporan living on the continent almost thirty years,but within 3 yrs span, I visited different countries and learned some basics about living/surviving here,to be short.african Americans need to learn,that to a certain degree,you have to switch off America if you want to live in africa, otherwise it's not gonna work.this continent is vast and diverse,and just running here overnight,is like jumping in mid ocean without knowing how to swim.there are dangers logging here like everywhere else,and if/when you aren't prudent, you'll quickly end up under bus! Ppl need to wake up,and stop being naive!

Thankyou for this detailed info. I watched a few others and they didn't have even the ladies names.

Americans are regular foreigners in Gambia. Those with money could very easily become targets. Born on the continent', I'm not surprised to hear of these deaths Im sorry to say.

Don’t forget your homeland here in America. We are indigenous to this land We built mound pyramids and everything. We may have migrated from Africa 20,000 years ago. We are black indigenous Americans. We need to rebuild our nation here. They want you to move you off your land by calling you African. Africa is not a country. Gambians have their own culture for thousands of years. You don’t go there tell them how to live. Buy land in America. Bill Gates is trying to buy it all.

There will always be people who are jealous of your success, even here at home, black American's always have to learn lessons the hard way, until we unite as a pure black American ethnic group we will always be disrespected because we have no government backing, as much as we would like to think we are African, we are not, we are hybrid Africans, part African part European and in African eyes we will never be fully accepted by some of them. They see us as fortunate like Cain saw Abel and we know how that story ended...

RIP to these ladies.

I just want to ask a simple question, how many Gambians died in the hands of African Americans? I knew at least a dozen . How many Africans died in the hands of African Americans? Hundreds if not thousands. Give us a break . May their soul rest in perfect peace.

Before you mentioned posion that came up in my mind when I heard about all those death they need to check if all their organs was still in them ,

As a Black-American woman, this is the reason I will never go to African countries. I have read way too many stories about Americans getting killed. First, the Dominican Republic in the Caribbean. now in Gambia .um, I'm good, thank you, sis..

Black Americans think that Africa and skin color means that "it's the motherland and Black Americans will be welcome." IMHO....Black Americans have more in common with Europeans than Africans. It must be understood we're generations, generations, and generations moved away from Africa and Black Americans and Africans are a very different culture. That's the key. It's not about the skin color it's about the culture.

Thank you for your content

Thank you for this 🎥👍🏾🆙🎥🫶🏾

This is very disturbing. If someone has details about each woman, such as where she was living, if she was married or in a a business relationship, as many details as possible, please consider contacting the US State Department. A warning might be issued to Americans who are considering moving, or even traveling to, the Gambia.

Afrika is patriarchal, so as women be extra careful. Gambia is moslem country so women should even be more careful.

Thank you for this.

Come home people I been to Africa Three years its horrible!

It is sad they lost their lives. Rest in peace to those beautiful sisters. I have been to The Gambia several times. I don’t want to be rude but as a black American woman it was fine for me. Also if you want to eat fish, you go to the beach as the fishermen come to shore & buy fish there. Not from the market. You can't go to another country & expect it to try to change a whole society of many tribes, languages & cultures. They have been dealing with rolling blackouts since at least 2013. Although not a standard but Gambians do the best they can with the limited resources & land they have. One thing I learned even traveling solo there is that as a woman you need to travel with a man. It is definitely a different society with its own issues just like any other place.

In Gambia,our hospital don't have good medicine.but ded is a time and a place not about gambia.may all the souls rest in peace ✌🏿🕊️

I just subscribed. Welcome back Sis.

Has the FBI been called, they need to investigate. This sounds like a documentary loading. So sorry for my American Sisters losing their lives seeking a peace of mind. 😔

Just yesterday another sister was found in her well....clearly foul play. So sad

Thank you for sharing informations. RIP those black women loss their life.😢🙏🏾

Very informative... I am sooooo glad I did not move to The Gambia nor Ghana back in 2019 when I had wide eyed hope for a better and more peaceful life. There were a few African men begging for my attention and for my move. I feel like I dodged a bullet. The petty jealousies will get you killed. Just looking at how they treat us even over here in America was a huge red flag for me. Thank you God for delivering me safely home from my travels.

That issue has to be addressed it’s for the safety off American single women who wants to migrate to the Gambia?

It's a cluster that deserves the authorities investigating.

This is very sad news. I just left Gambia a few weeks ago. I stayed in a house in Sanyang on and off for 2 months. I've had no problem with people there. Occasionally the men will be aggressively trying to chat me up, but that's any easy fix. I don't hang out at night, I cook my own food which is most fresh fruit, veggies and grains. I've seen marabout, with no issues. Sending prayers up for all Black American women in The Gambia and globally.

I am Jamaica don’t refer to me as African nothing in any ways it’s inductive 🎉

we even hearing about this stuff in the states! It’s getting real… get out if you’re there.. and that Sister International group is super suspicious!

ADOS people just can’t catch a break😢😢ADOS people get Hurt and Killed by All😭😭Nothing is being done to Protect and hold folks accountable for Harming ADOS PEOPLE!!ADOS people has to come together stick together protect each other fight together in order for things to change for good!!🫶🏾 TO SAVE ADOS PEOPLE (PERIOD!!)🖤🖤

Anywhere is dangerous for single females.

Gambia is not a safe country to visit. Go to Ghana instead where the police and security services are feared.

Some go for younger men and don't forget they are married some are arrogant to take someone's husband in the name of money they don't respect kindly do your research you find out that it's not food problem

Anja said she received food she purchased that was poisoned.

Wow! Thanks for the update. This is really disturbing news! By the way, the sound is too low for this video. Can barely hear you, which is annoying!

stay tuned we going to get to the bottom of this

I am the social worker to a child whose mother is from Gambia. This mother adopted five black American children and used the money to purchase property. She treats the children well most of the time, but will name call them and compare them to her biological children. She shared with me that she purchased land in Gambia two weeks ago. The land was taken from an American who have lived in Gambia for the past 16 years. She bragged that Gambia look out for it's people first. She also admits that Gambian people are wicked. I asked her if she didn't feel bad that they took this man's land. She said no because they gave him his money back. I don't believe they did. But she is now the proud owner of the land.

So sad. I just saw another channel (a brother ) . since this video, there was a 6th sudden death since Andrea. This last sister is from the UK. Very concerning and tragic.

In my research I think ive heard of the people in certain places resenting us. Community is very important.

Not only African American. Caribbean British as well.

I think some of what we've been fed is that we are welcomed in African countries. Many Blacks leave America due to systemic racism and its overreaching impact. The way we imagined being welcomed and accepted in Africa has not proven altogether true, however. I read recently that the land that Ghana is giving away to diasporans is actually land that belongs to Ghanaians and they are not getting the profits. And you could see how that would engender resentment, even if AA didn't know.

All of you have to come to Ghana..... Where you find peace and love ....

Wow!!!

Where is Blaxit on this. Where is the voice of Blaxit?

Where are the children ?They get rid of the moms to do the unthinkable to the children . Get the children back🤯😖😣☹️. Face it they hate blank women them folks are not our kin folks…

These blacks returned to theirs but were not welcomed. May God help us Afticans

Avoid Gambia I for see a lot of friction in the end between the locals and foreigners because if land that is been gobbled up for a tiny country. Ladies dont go to Africa alone you put yourself at risk in different ways.if you do go, leave in a gated community. Avoid a bunch of friends keep things private .respect the laws of the country and avoid comparing the west and Africa in culture traditions while you a online .Some africans will not see where you are comming from with it.Return to America once in a while for medical check ups etc ,because you dont get the best treatment in the third world if you doit will be very expensive.This feels like there is a invisible hand at work Rip all sisters who have passed on.

The gambia is rife with spiritism they mixed with African black magic and the quran

Shakina was such a kind woman. She never deserved such an end. Heartbreaking. Women are not safe anywhere. Rest in Power Queen
