Dear Africans,
The whole of the Caribbean are our distant, overseas cousins 🤣
Here is why…
If Africa were an extended family, it could be described as follows:
The Chaotic Relatives: Uganda🇺🇬, Congo🇨🇩, and South Sudan🇸🇸, are always wrapped up in some sort of drama. They never fail to be the topic of family gossip. On top of the chaos, Uganda is also a known drunkard.
The Pompous Relatives: Kenya🇰🇪 believes they know it all, they bully the rest of the family members, and will shout until you declare them the winners of any argument. They are also drunkards like Uganda.
The Peaceful Relatives: Tanzania🇹🇿, Zambia🇿🇲, Malawi🇲🇼, Botswana🇧🇼, Gambia🇬🇲, Eswatini🇸🇿, Sierra Leone🇸🇱, and Namibia🇳🇦 are soft-spoken and laid back. They are generally sweet to other family members.
The Disciplined Relatives: Rwanda🇷🇼. They are strict and follow rules to the dot. They will not allow any family member to do otherwise in their presence or disrespect them.
The Loud Relatives: Ghana🇬🇭 and Nigeria🇳🇬. They go all out on whatever it is they set out to do, good or bad. They were born loud and proud. You will know every little milestone and achievement in their lives whether you have ears or not. They adore each other but act otherwise in public.
The Rich Relatives: South Africa🇿🇦. They live in a mansion and never miss an opportunity to flaunt their wealth. Their kids are gifted dancers and singers. Sometimes, other relatives send their children to work for them.
The Distant Relatives: Madagascar🇲🇬, Seychelles🇸🇨, Mauritius🇲🇺, Mauritania🇲🇷, Comoros🇰🇲, Cape Verde🇨🇻, Sao Tome and Principe🇸🇹. They live outside the family compound and never attend family events or respond to WhatsApp messages in the family group.
The Private Relatives: Chad🇹🇩, Djibouti🇩🇯, Niger🇳🇪, Mali🇲🇱, Benin🇧🇯, Guinea-Bissau🇬🇼, Equatorial Guinea🇬🇶, Guinea🇬🇳, Liberia🇱🇷, and Lesotho🇱🇸. They keep their affairs private. They live by one rule: date in private, propose in private, marry in private, and divorce in private. All their power moves are made in silence. They hardly feature in any family gossip.
The Two-Faced Relatives: Egypt🇪🇬, Morocco🇲🇦, Algeria🇩🇿, Tunisia🇹🇳, Libya🇱🇾, Sudan🇸🇩, Ethiopia🇪🇹, Eritrea🇪🇷, and Somalia🇸🇴. They don’t want to be associated with the family. They attend family meetings and events, but they also willingly denounce family ties at any given opportunity.
The Abroad Relatives: Senegal🇸🇳, Burkina Faso🇧🇫, Mozambique🇲🇿, Angola🇦🇴, Cameroon🇨🇲, Togo🇹🇬, Gabon🇬🇦, Central African Republic🇨🇬, and Ivory Coast🇨🇮. They speak with an accent and prefer to deal with each other since other family members can’t relate to their abroad lifestyle.
The Struggling Relatives: Zimbabwe🇿🇼. They would be well off, but life has beaten them to a pulp. Things just don’t seem to be working out for them, however hard they try…..
