If I ever decided to live on the African Continent again, I will consider Gambia. The people from what I heard are friendly. Gambia is called the smiling coast of Africa for a reason. A lot of these black americans and black britons have been migrating there and buying land there too. It's not a big country with a big population but it's peaceful.

When considering where to move to within Africa especially as a Nigerian, go to African nations whose citizens are kind and not to countries like Ghana or South Africa who hate Nigerians with a passion for reasons best known to them.

I don't reside in Nigeria or anywhere in Africa but if I was considering living in an African country, I would look for an African country whose indigenes/ citizens don't have beef with Nigerians or other African nationals. Tribalism as practiced in many African countries including Nigeria can be deadly and harmful. Hence, one must be careful where one goes. All the best!

I love this post.

Do I need a visa to travel to Gambia?

Bullman:


Gambia by road... your journey starts from seme border straight to abijan via Abc transport. From abijan ivorycoast u will sure tell d driver to link u up on where to get a bus direct to monrovia or freetown when u arrive freetown u take a bus to guinea conakry direct.. getting to conakry u take another bus to daker senegal. Senegal to the gambia is via a ferry not a direct road trip. I cant remember how much i paid . U will convert your naira to cfa in seme boarder shine your eyes and know d market value well.
I lived in the gambia for a very long time as a kid with my family i stayed in manjai close to west coast radio. Bro truth is the gambia isnt as developed as Nigeria u cant be loudly rich but u sure will be very very comfortable. Good light back then dont know about now.
Steady security, good roads i never withnes any road accident the only one i saw was a donkey colliding with a bicycle. The gambian currency value dalasi is higher than d naira. Gambians love Nigerians almost all d banks in gambia r nigerian banks. Good opportunities to start a business lots of retired white ppl live in d gambia. It's the number 1 toursit destination in west africa. Food is relatively cheap and her ppl are really straight foward and hospitable.. plus the gambian passport is the sixth strongest in africa lol

My brother u have spoken so well like d proud son of ur father... I salute u righteously... I get few questions to ask regards Gambia, cos i intend to travel there soon once my passport is ready...

1st I believe Gambia is a west african country n a member of d ecowas, same as Nigeria.. why would i need a residence permit to have an extended stay?

2. We re presently in 2021, is it possible to get a direct vehicle from say Seme/Nigeria to Gambia? Like u said as of 2014, there was no direct bus... Now it's like 7yrs after...

3. U talked about d use of ferry from Senegal to get to Gambia, is it still so till today? Any idea?

4. 6 days journey long o jisos.... During ur journey, did u at anytime lodged into a hotel, just to rest n freshen up for d next journey or u headed straight both night n day till u got to ur destination... Man fit consider flight ooo... Though i love adventures sha..

5. How about language barriers on ur way, knowing that d official language of most of d countries u passed thru is French... How did u cope?

Let me stop here first...

Good morning bro. The fact the gambiabis a member of ecowas still requires you apply for a resident permit after your 90days stay i could remember back then i practically walk around with my passport just for identification and so the authorities don't conclude my stay was illegal. Nigeria is messed up with lots of illegal migrants doesn't make other countries same. In gambia there is a fine to pay if you get caught without a residential permit after 90 days.

2 , bro there are no direct buses from seme border to the gambia you must break yout journey like i stated earlier

3. Yea its still via ferry i think ita about three hours ferry ride across the river gambua but its fun

4 crashing in a bus park or a hotel is your choice tho

5 most francophone countries speak and understand english to some point or maybe just the basis so that wont be a problem.

Any skilled job experience or technical skill acquired will help you prosper in Gambia.
From fashion designing, hairdresser, mechanic, plumber, electrician, make up artiste , carpenter just name it

The reason is that their people are not very technically sound or experienced, even their people doing these jobs wont do it like nigerians who have seen it all.

Getting shop isnt so difficuly too like accomodation, there is a large nigerian community there who can assist,just be legit with your skill you will earn in better currency !!!

which one would you reccommend cape verde or gambia,am pls can i budget #100,000 to Gambia

Gambia is a very chilled and laid back country if you want to live a sane life full of ambience and tranquility.

A lot of foreigners from europe (UK, germany, netherlands) etc, go there for holidays and some even have houses there just for the fun of it.

If you play your cards right, you might just be lucky....if you know, you know.

The nightlife there is dope (serrekunda strip / kololi beach)...

If you want to go into business, look towards building, trucking, taxi business, arts and crafts, Nightlife.

watch a lot of youtube videos aswell and immerse yourself with the culture, cheers !

oga it like you don't know what's doing you or is it not that same Ghana that was reported here that their youth were protesting for jobs or that Liberia that's worst than Nigeria
if you must leave Nigeria at least go to a country better than Nigeria and I don't think any country in Africa is far better than Nigeria for immigration
