Unataka watu waende Russia kufanya nini though? Kenyans are economic migrants, na hautapata kazi Russia.
Plus russians absolutely hate and despise Africans. This is one of the places where overt racism is acceptable.
African students arriving at the airport are routinely offered bananas when they land at the airport.
The link is a sad read. But you soil the whole comment with a lie, a stupid and unnecessary one.
Moscow has 2 major airports, Domodedovo and Sheremetovo, which one has this alleged “routine”?
Let’s hear more of this ignorant nonsense.
You and your Stupid questions
Why is it relevant which airport it is?
There are real live African students who testify to the fact that racist abuse is normal in russia. As do football players who still have bananas thrown at them. Deny all you want. Your denial is plain for all to see.
I seriously don’t understand the misplaced adulation that Africans have for such a racist country.
I’ve been to Russia more than 10 times. I’ve never been greeted at any airport with bananas. I trust my own experience more than some anonymous internet post. I’m pretty aware there are racist idiots in Russia. But I’ve never seen a “routine” offering of bananas to Africans at any airport. The only people bothered about you at the airport are taxi drivers wanting your money.
@hewa safi, there are parts of Russia to avoid. Like any country, use your common sense. A mzungu coming to kenya and going to Kayole/Dandora is asking for trouble. Same thing anywhere. I mean I love Moscow inside out, but if for whatever reason I want to go to Chistie Prudie (a metro station popular with skinheads) al definitely have my wits about me on very high alert.
I was exposing your keyboard support for Russia. I’m glad that you’ve finally admitted Russia has nothing to offer Kenyans. Truth is, Russia has never been a better option for Kenyans - not in the past, the present and in the foreseeable future. Western hegemony is a good thing for Kenya and the world in general. The balance of power could be better, and it has been steadily getting better since the end of colonialism.
How? You asked if I would choose Russia over other European countries and I said yes I would. You asked if I would learn Russian, and I replied not only would I, I already do speak some Russian. Sounds to me like you gave me a chance to demonstrate my affinity to Russia.
This is the problem when you have weak comprehension skills. Russia has nothing to offer economic migrants. And FYI everyone hates economic migrants especially the ones from Africa and Asia as they are seen to be an effort by big business to lower wages. I’ll remain neutral on the issue of economic migrants, but if you press me for my opinion, well I lived in your beloved West for majority of my younger adulthood but ultimately chose to come build my own country. If you read between the lines you will see my personal/private opinion on that.
You have no clue what you are on about. Africa and its resources are the largest casualties of this “western hegemony”. It isn’t even Western Hegemony anyway. European countries are vassal states of the US.
By the way, my preference for a multi-polar world over US-hegemony should not be conflated with my affinity for Russia. People are free to have personal preferences to whichever country. We are 50 million people each with unique experiences informing their preferences. But that shouldn’tbe the basis of evaluating a multi-polar world vs US-hegemony. I can see you from far attempting to frame the issue on trivialities.
