5 common issues facing Africans abroad you need to know

Distance away from home 

Last year, six Ghanaians died in their rooms in London and no one noticed.

The journey abroad can be lonely, many leaving their families and communities to brace the unknowns in other lands. Issues of loneliness and lack of the extended family and familiar community that many Africans are used to compounds the issues around stress, disease, and violence listed above.

What did we miss? What are some common issues you face abroad you wish Africans wishing to immigrate there knew?
