What the Russian invasion means for thousands of Africans in Ukraine | DW News

The war in Ukraine has thousands of Africans on edge.
There are currently around 30,000 people of African descent in Ukraine, and Nigeria has the second largest African community there.
Many of them are students, who left to study in Europe. On the day the attacks started DW managed to get hold of one of the Nigerian students in Ukraine. Otumudia Dennis has been in Kharkiv in Eastern Ukraine since December and studies medicine at the Kharkiv Institute of Medicine And Biomedical Sciences.

  1. I don't think the Russians are going to give you welfare and EBT cards looks like your days are numbered Tyrone I'm not being racist I'm just telling it like it is Putin does not like you

  2. Presup Jam 
    The Holy Qur'an says:

    Jesus spoke: Lo! I am the slave of Allah. He hath given me the book and hath appointed me a prophet.
    ( Qur'an (Mary,19:30)

    It befitteh not (the Majesty of) Allah that He should take unto Himself a son. Glory be to him! When He decreeth a thing,
    He saith unto it only :
    Be! and it is.
    ( Mary,19:35)

    And lo! Allah is my Lord and your Lord. So serve Him. That is the right path. (Mary,19:36)

    Jesus never said that he is the begotten son of Allah (Father) and he never claimed that he is God. This story was developed later. This is not authentic teaching of Jesus.

    Jesus is one of the mightiest prophet of Almighty Allah appointed before the last prophet sent for all humanity.

  3. I agree African needs to do something to rescue its people or atleast say to Russia do not shoot or kill its people (on purpose) as they have nothing to do with whats happening in Ukraine. Infact Russia should help get them out if they feel they have nothing to shoot at.

  4. En Ukraine IL Y A BEAUCOUP DES AFRICAINS MUSULMANS…!
    LE PEUPLE MUSULMANE il n'a rien CONSTRUIT PENDANT DES SIÈCLES..
    ET tous FUIENT DE LA MISÈRE ET VIOLENCE vers les pays exclusivement CHRÉTIENS……….

  5. UKRAINE CREATED THIS PROBLEM FOR THEMSELVES THEY ALLOWED NATO TO SLEEP WALK THEM INTO A QUAGMIRE AND NOW HE WANT TO INVOLVE THE WHOLE WORLD, NATO THAT WAS BUILT BY THE BLOOD OF AFRICANS NEED TO BE DISBANDED, NATO IS NO GOOD FOR THE WORLD SPEND THAT MONEY ON REPARATIONS FOR AFRICANS IN THE WEST RATHER THAN TANKS🕷

  6. Of course,no loyalty much less any moral to them.
    Don't get my wrong, I am not standing with Ukraine or Russia, but when you leave your own damn country and join another you should have some sense of duty to the country that took you in and provides for you and yours.

  7. If Russia and Ukraine only new what God has for them They would come to understand eachother but sorry for they cannot put aside hates. Let's put aside our hateful toward eachother and let's have the greatest party. It can be in Ukraine or it can in Russia. It doesn't matter where the most important thing is to dress up and have "UNITY" PARTY. The two countries would be the "Uniters" of the world.
    Let's put down our weapons. Let's dance, dance and dance. Sing a song of peace love and unity. Let's show the world that we have the power make a difference for the great of good. If we can permeate ourselves to "UNDERSTAND" the word "LOVE" in which all of our circles is based upon. May my loving father bless you by saving you all from the darkness of the night. Amen

  8. Ukrainians are blocking Africans from leaving and it looks like you are blaming Russia > Germany is a massive horror on the planet all over again take responsibility for your horror you are making

  9. These men are happy they aren't required to stay and fight because they "aren't Ukranian citizens" but are upset they aren't allowed into Poland because they "aren't Ukranian citizens,"

    Equal treatment would mean they have to follow the order that all men of fighting age 18 to 60 are ordered to stay and fight.
