In this special episode, we explore a historic move from the West African nation of Benin as it opens its doors to the African diaspora. 🇧🇯 This groundbreaking initiative invites descendants of those impacted by the transatlantic slave trade to reclaim their heritage and citizenship.

Join me as we unpack:

• The details of Benin's new citizenship law and what it means for the diaspora 🌍
• The emotional and cultural significance of reconnecting with ancestral roots 🧡
• Benin's rich history

This isn’t just news – it’s a homecoming. It’s history in the making. This episode is a little different for me, so if you like, do let me know.

Till next time stay blessed.
