Team Trudy tumefika❤❤
I keep telling Both of you that you’re God Sent🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽 Don’t worry @Wode Maya. I’m on the necks of the Dirty PIGS 🐖 that are trying to drug your name into the Mud 🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽
Shocked that I had already subscribed to him and the wife's channels.. they're doing a good job 👏👍 much love 💕
You two do inspire me alot... much love..❤❤
You are amazing Lynn😊😊Thanks for giving me the platform to share my story!Now who wanna see Lynn on my channel??😅
Me, Myself and I...New subscriber here..
You are such an amazing inspiration to small youtubers like us, I really admire your work and your energy and focus.
Go go goooo!💪
I am a great fun of yours Wode Maya and Lynn. Nothing I would love more.
Kindly bring this awesome lady. A rare 💎 that we ❤️
How I'm waiting for that video, pleased Don take long
MEEEEEE!!!
That’s my baby! 😀🙌🏼 This was so emotional 😭. Thank you Lynn for hosting him❤
Sweet wife
Aawh was looking for Trudy's comment.Trudy and Wode to the world
The Trumaya❤❤❤
❤
It was emotional for sure
As a Jamaican I have been enjoying his content from my Ghanaian friend. I find him extremely solid and honest. To hear him say as an African you aren’t able to explore the continent from one country to the next you need a visa 🤦🏾♀️. Young man you bring me to tears - remain true to yourself for the people.
Love him or hate him, you cannot deny he has really challenged others to step out. Mad respect for him. He has impacted many. Very cool to see two great African influencers having a convo.
Who in their right mind can hate him !?😅
The king of TH-cam in Africa, welcome to Lynn Ngugi Family.
They inspire global especial Africa
He needs to be in every African leaders meetings.
I wish they would allow him but they wouldn't want to be challenged ...sad 😢
Ya they are intimidated by young minds like these. Instead of listening they would be clutching their pearls thinking he is after their positions.
He should stay at home and eat garri this one
They will even hurt him
The main problem with the 54 Africans country leaders is that they never came in one accord, but they came in one bus.
As an American, Wode Maya was one of the first member of the African diaspora I started watching. Before him, I was no aware of the diaspora. He opened my eyes to the Beauty of Africa. Since then, I started watching other channels within the diaspora. It has been a few years now and my life has changed significantly because of it. Thanks, Wode Maya!!!
Wow! Awesome ❤
Small correction: Wode Maya is not a member of the African diaspora. He's a native African from Ghana ❤😊✌🏽
I love miss Trudy for standing up for herself and her husband.

As a black American, born and raised, I have to say that I am loving every bit of these videos. I am so thankful for the internet these days because growing up in the 80's all I saw on television, about Africa were bad things. I had an opportunity to visit the motherland for the first time this past January and will be returning for another visit January 2024. I am excited. You guys bring me so much joy on this platform. Keep up the good work :)
Woda Maya You and your Wife are a blessing to the World, much Love and Respect 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👍.
i am from Jamaica. 🇯🇲 you guys show me a different side of Africa. keep up the great work
Wode Maya even pushed his sandles aside and told us his story. Gotta love aunty Maggie's son😊
😊😊😊
THE ONLY PRAYER FOR ME TO WODEMAYA IS THE AFRICAN UNION SHOULD CALL HIM AND TALK TO HIM HE HAS ALOT OF WISDOM 😊❤
I’m a Westerner, married to an African for fifty years (this year)…..Love AFRICA!!
I watch and follow a lot of African content, realizing that here in the West we’ve been lied to, deprived of many things, specially an education that’s factual….
I’m so very Thankful that the Lord connected me to an educated, humble, kind, disciplined, loving, Godly man who raised our family to be the best God created us to be…..Together, as retired Ministers, we still do Missionary Work in West Africa….
BOTH OF YOU are two of the African Content Creators I highly respect and follow. You’re both transparent, honest, humble and factual…..That’s what’s needed!! Thanks for leaving “drama” behind…..We have enough here in the Western world!!
Thank you both for this very inspiring video…..Blessings Always!!
My baby boy my baby boy watch he will be the president who will make Africa one ,God bless his soul ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
The wisdom that this man carries.....I wish our African leaders can listen to him.
The African leader is afraid to listen because of outside forces
His agenda to have borderless Africa is what made me fall in love with his contents.
"Trudy is the woman i prayed for"This is pure love,honour, submission.....all men should borrow a leaf from wode maya and love,praise and respect your wife GOD BLESS YOUR MARRIAGE AND BLESS YOU WITH MANY BABIES ❤❤❤❤❤❤
Stop this obssession with submission we re complementary
@@merveilleux7426what these men don’t understand is it a complementary submission one to another as scripture say, men love your wives as Christ love the church. Yes, they are head of relationships and that relationship will go as you lead it. They think it means domination and control, but you earn a submissive wife the way you love her, they will always have a problem when they try to dictate, dominate, demand. I once heard a woman say, I love R….,, he is everything, I don’t know what I’d do without him. I was amazed by her statement for I have never met a man that I could ever feel that way about even my first love was a disappointment. As I watch them over the years before they moved away, I see his love for her, he cares, supports, provides, he respects her person, I never heard him speak condescending, but lovingly. I understand her statement now. A few years ago, I saw her again after about 10-12 years later I said do you still feel this way about your husband. She gleefully said yes I still do. That is the kind man whom makes it easy to submit too.
When I began to watch Wode channel, I was blessed to see the Continent Africa. I grew to like him a lot and I prayed also for him to find a beautiful African young woman who’d be good for him. As I watched, I met Ms Trudy and said that is the girl, I hope he marries her, I saw she loved him. I wanted him to have good because he is a good person.
My ancestors originated ANGOLA and Equatorial Guinea. The people look like us here in America, we love music, beats, color, food just as they do. I’d like to go to some of these countries one day.
His testimony is so powerful! Couldn’t hold back tears 😭! The guy loaning him money to go home, the guy buying him the camera, the poverty he’s grown up in. Goodness!
To see my two favorite people in one room just overwhelms me. Continue growing as you change the narrative, inspiring Africans from all walks of life.
I have faced racism where I am currently
Same here.
Elevation!
I was so excited when I saw this video.
This is just breathtaking❤❤I looove this two
I met Wode Maya on his first tour to Hargeisa, Somaliland. I instantly recognised him on the streets. Indeed, Wode Maya is changing the narrative of the imperialist about Africa putting the true story of Africa to the world.
Wode Maya is an African Gem💎.
He represent Africa fully.
His content about Africa is Superb ✅👌
I am from and live in Jamaica 🇯🇲. This is such an inspiring and thought-provoking video. Keep up the good work.
This gentleman deserves to be the first president of Africa i love him because he motivated me back in 2021 to be whom I am today...bigup bro
Great 🎉🎉😂❤❤❤
Wode Maya has truly sold the African Beauty 😍
I've met Wode Maya in person. He is an amazing, amazing person. Him and Miss Trudy. They are just the best❤.
I don't know why and how, but anytime I watch Wode Maya's videos the giant in me awakens.
Wode is a great man✅
Helloo.chief 😂🎉
Chief sanitizer yuko area
Sanitizer mwenyewe polite man Pluto
@@racheallento3757 nipitie kwangu dear unisupport pia nitashukuru
Chief sanitizer should sanitize Maya and Trudy soon
If only all of us Africans knew the power we have.
The problem is that Africans don't trust each other , they'd rather deal with the West or China , very sad
True!!!
True
True
We know but it is so powerful, it scares us.
Don't give up despite the odds that are stacked against you. I love Wode Maya and all he stands for.
He is and amazing guy he came to Jamaica and he is so well received he's like our next door neighbor he is our friend I just celebrate what he do you are so is my favorite home so I want you all the time
He's one of the simplest men have ever seen.Humble and focused. Setting examples and changing lives. God bless you son of Africa.
You are right
This man, Wode Maya is on another level.His story inspires me alot, he taught me you can start from grass to grace.Thanks Lynn for hosting him.
very inspiring
This guy is awesome! He represents Africa very well out there. As a Kenyan, I appreciate you Maya. 🙏
Wode Maya, I'm your Ghanaian sister based in uk , I follow and watch you nearly every day dear brother.
I also detest poverty with the strongest terms possible. There is no way my Heavenly Father can own the entire world and the heavens and everything good in them then I languish in poverty and misery. Never! I am a daughter of the most High God, abundance is my portion in Jesus Mighty name.
Amen
Amen
Wodemaya and Lynn in one video,wow! Do you guys really know that you are making us proud in Africa. Love you guys from Namibia
Ualapo...hugs from Uganda
Am Kenyan and I plan to visit Namibia this year
@@martharinebiseko1457 almost 🙂
@@Evalian198 do come it is peaceful
@@martharinebiseko1457 waiting for you here. This is your country too. We are one
I'm from Angola 🇦🇴 and I have been following both of you religiously for as longer you have been around. When I heard about Angola 🇦🇴 my first reaction was to bash the country and politicians (and the people too 🤯). However, the list would be endless since they ( the corrupts) make 10 times harder for us. It's all about the "muzungu"...
I identify more with you guys than angolans. I follow you 👀 I love you 💞 and I don't take you for granted. 🙏🏽
Thank you!
🇦🇴🫂💕
Wode Maya. I am a Jamaican living in Jamaica and I most say you guys are a real example of real. Continue doing you.
This guy changed my life,he gave me a new beginning,am in gulf and didn't know what to do when I go home but thru his channel am sure I want to venture into farming
All the best
Wishing you well ❤️🩹
Wode Maya is something else, he is just so confortable to a point that he even removed his sandals in front of the camera 😅😅
I was too scared to travel around Africa until i came across Maya's channel. It was obviously our creators plan. Bless you Maya and Lynn for what you are doing ❤❤
Lynn you are a good person and that young this is the first time iam seeing him I hear. about but you and him but in everything he is doing he love what him you are doing every good have a bless day
I'm from Ethiopia! I love both of you guys! I love Jesus, and I am born again Christian. Both of you are blessed! Mainstream media always talks about neigtves things about Africa. I was inspired the first time I saw Maya. More blessings ! Keep putting Jesus first in your life and world.
they way she appreciates his wife(miss trudy)is everything woow and about youtube am challenged you guy my guy
Lynn I'm living in Antigua in the Caribbean, I've been watching quite a bit of your content. I like this one, it took me back to my youth and my struggles. What you and Wode spoke about made me cry. Both of you keep up the great work you do.
May Almighty Allah bless you abundantly
I'm Ghanaian from Ashanti but living in Takoradi and infact I always inspires this amazing and dream man👌🤝
What an interview.... Wode Maya the Ambassador for Africa and Lynn Ngugi, the talk show host uniting Africa through sharing human interests stories 🙌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽 much ❤️ from 🇳🇦
Wode Maya and Lynn Ngugi together are my African Oprah Winfrey and Michelle Obama together. Great minds, oozing wisdom and intelligence and of course humility at it’s finest.
Keep on keeping on good people, you are a force to reckon with. You are changing lives positively and I wish our leaders would start watching you two.
"You don't know that person you're disrespecting is going through." No truer words spoken. Continued Blessings to you, Wode Maya.
I am from Ivory Coast. This talk has inspired me a lot! It is a boost to that dream that lays in me. Admire both of you and thanks for what you are to the motherland Africa. Love your advises and wishes for Africans. I am grateful to that adorable being that shared this video with me. She is a love ❤. Very inspiring!! Hope we meet some day! GOD BLESS AFRICA AND AFRICANS!❤
Love this guy he is so intelligent and his work is like no other he is educating us about the Mother Land Thank you Wode Maya❤🇯🇲🇯🇲
Commenting even before I listen. Wode Maya is doing a great job to change Africa's narrative. Learnt a lot of good things about Africa through his channel. Love his simplicity, humility and funny fun side of him too. He also got himself a gem of a wife. Keep going the Maya's. Lynn..you never disappoint!💞💕
Also commenting before I listen, been waiting for this day to come😊. Thank you Lynn for bringing this episode ❤
I appreciate his courage, intelligence, humble nature,
Same here 😂❤
❤ for telling the outside there who Africa and Africans are we are kind beautiful continent
Me too ❤😊
Oh! I have forgotten to add that I, too love Wode Maya. You know what, good people, Ghanaians were the first people to arrive in the Transkei, now known as the Eastern Cape then around 1976. We never experienced problems with Ghanaians up to this moment. Others settled in South Africa. These are good people. I don't remember having a Ghanaian accused person in my court! This is the truth. These people conduct themselves better here in South Africa. I don't know in other countries. Thank you good people.
Wode Maya brought me here…. You’ve gained a subscriber ❤
I cannot wait for the day Wode Maya gets an opportunity to interview Julius Sello Malema
Precisely, same here brotherman. That would be lit 🔥. I love Malema to the core. Much love and nuff respekt to all my Afrikan people. From Zambia 🇿🇲.
It's nice to see Lynn and Wode Maya together. Your influence on our society is enormous.
So true.... I love them..
Watching from Rwanda. Wode Maya our inspiration, takes us to greater levels. When my mum passed suddenly Maya supported me, he doesn't even know me. Genuine person. ❤
Sorry for your loss Sister, keep being strong 😢❤
There will always be another Wode Maya ,you shall live, you are untouchable and unconconkerable, kudos 👏 to you
Two humble people on one set!!
I'm a Namibian but had no idea if my country is that beautiful, wow, I'm deciding now to one day be there with my family. LYN you are welcome here, Im dreaming to see you personally. I believe God will see us through this.
We will gladly welcome Lynn in our beloved country Namibia 🇳🇦
@@hiliashatipamba3691 thank you, I'm glad we are here together for our sister LYNN
That makes the two of us. I wanna see Lynn. If she is not coming to Namibia, I am going to Kenya
@@taimithomas2856 welcome to 🇰🇪
Welcome to Kenya! As you plan to welcome Lynn to your country in Namibia
One common trait about Lynn and Maya is humility,Much love ❤
AMEN IT'S TIME FOR AFRICA AS A CONTINENT TO STICK TOGETHER.
Our leaders are too greedy....they can never let Africa unite.
Wode Maya's story is a story of greatness, he's a humble and well-raised young man, and every time I watch this guy, I learn and get inspired. Thanks for bringing him to your show to share his story. 🥰
It's just yesterday that I was telling my sister about him, his signature laughter is everything😅😅
Just listening to Wode Maya makes my day. "I've tasted poverty before and I never want to go back there"
He's an inspiration indeed. And the fact that he gives all credit to God says alot.
Wode Maya we love you and good to see you in Kenya.. TUNAKUPENDA
❤❤
The greatest thing is to be mentored by a parent, his dad did the assignment God put him on earth to do. Two awesome people in the same space.
Look at OUR Wode Maya feeling at home removing his sandals and speaking with Lynn Ngugi the great of Kenya 😍two of the Afrika great living legends.💯✌🙏
Wode is a movement...I have watched him since 2019. Omg. I love Trumaya 💕💕
“African leaders need to start respecting themselves”.
What a powerful statement Wode Maya , you are on it !
I love his words,
Africa it's time we come together! It's time we speak one language and build one another!
Wode Maya is such an inspiration. Africa to the world❤
But our leaders have done a lot to separate us😭😭😭
That's not a good idea
Agree africa unite Bob Marley song listen to his video Has a jamaican watching this interview so proud of my dna am 35% nigerian some togo, ivory coast, ghana love one day to visit .One love 🇯🇲
Wode Maya is not only a local champion but an international & worldwide champion.
Nuff respect
Bless up 🙏🙏❤️
Watching from the land downunder Sydney NSW.
Wode maya the best humble man av ever seen..he genuinely loves his trudy
Wode Maya unites Africa ,am Kenyan and I came to know him through a Sudanese friend...
I am truly so proud of these two contents creators by listening to their stories about us as Africans who are prepared to work hard and change the negative mindset about Africans in exile and diaspora!
I love Mr Maya like crazy, thanks Lynn for invitting him 💛💛🤍🤍🤍
Great to see Lynn Ngugi and Wode Maya in one interview. The best content creaters from Africa. Thank You. 🙏🏽
I'm a religious follower of these two great people. Wode Maya, doing a great job for Africa. You two are gems, kindly work together and change the narrative of Africa. I love you guys 😢❤
Two young people doing the absolute most.
Both of u take your flowers.
When someone said this is going to be one of the biggest interviews l honestly dint understand at the time but 2 minutes in l am like wow l now understand. Two of the most inspirational young africans in the same room. Wow
One word for him, "phenomenal."
I pray celebrities in Kenya can learn from Wode Maya. Dramas are not inspiration.
Am hia.... I love this guy n his wyf Getrude..... They make m travel and tour the world in the comfort of my bedsitter 😂😂😂😂😂❤
That's my prayer that Africans we should come together and know our greatness.
I clicked so fast… Now I understand what people say when they say they liked even before I watched cause I already new it was going to be good. 😂 This was amazing!
Wode Maya’s story is so inspiring. Keep doing what you do.
Thanks for sharing his story with us Lynn.
@Wode Maya!!! Don’t let them get away with it. Slap them with a Lawsuit right away! Don’t let them get away with it. They have been disrespectful to Africans for way too long and you’re the one and only one that’s going to put a stop to it Son 🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽 DO IT 👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾
I started watching Wode Maya way back before he hit 100k Subs. 👍👊
Wonderful interview Lynn! Yes Africa should be home to Africans. I’m west African and American ( on paper) and it saddens me that using an American passport makes travel within east Africa easier than my Ecowas. I feel wode’s pain. It’s extremely hard to travel within Africa for Africans. Our hope is change because if African can move around the continent, people will realize how beautiful we are. We’re grateful for these kind of platforms; keep up with the great work both!
Woda Maya my home boy 🇬🇭🇬🇭🇬🇭🇬🇭🇬🇭🇬🇭
Its my very first time seeing and listening to our guest today..and to be frank am already liking him💯his sense of humour is everything,his content about Africa as a continent is all we would all want to listen to and come up with a permanent change....You are both African inspiration (Lynn and Wode Maya) keep on doing what you do at its best💯💯💪💪
Namibia is one of my dream Destinations, all thanks to Wode Maya ❤
Please plan for it coz it is a unique country....hv lived there
@@martharinebiseko1457 I definetly will
You're welcome
I like the fact that despite being a aviation engineer,he’s passionate about his dream of selling Africa by telling Africa story.
I'm an avid follower of you both Lynn from Namibia! I share similar experiences with Wo De Maya from studying in China during the same time as him and what he says is wholly true. I've travelled to many African countries till date because of the connections I have made with other Africans during my studies in China. Thank you for this video, Karibu Sana in Namibia Lynn. I look forward to hosting you when you do decide to visit.
I can relate with too, china has managed to connect more African than our govt . I have visited East Africa to see friends i met in China
I started following Wode Maya when he had like 100k followers, I just can't get enough of every episode of his. He has been an inspiration. His wisdom beats his age. Bless you Wode
Behind WodeMaya is MissTrudy 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉❤❤❤
Finally!!..The bench today is complete with the best TH-camrs - 🎉🎉Lynn Ngugi and Wode Maya
💯agree all smiles
Asafa is such a warm humble and down to earth man.
Watching this makes me so proud to be an African,am a big fun of Wode Maya seeing him here made me scream with joy🥳🥳🤎
Wode Maya and Lynn Ngugi in one room….nothing beats this❤❤❤
Honour for us as black people is in Africa and it’s time to change our own mindset and shun the inferiority complex we suffer from, from years of oppression and hate!
Living in these foreign countries really opens your eyes to the way most in the rest of the world view us as Africans
The worst is that when you come home n find your people worshiping every white skin n ignoring our own.
I totally agree with you
It’s time to stand for our self
Watching from Texas and Jamaica you both are my favorite persons to watch thanks to you both.
