Summary
"Most Africans leave their continent in quest of better opportunities with the intention to move back after attaining their goals. However, most, if not all, end up settling down abroad instead of moving back to where they came from. This story highlights why they would rather stay in self-imposed exile than go back home. Then it exposes the challenges Africans face adjusting to foreign cultures and trying to raise their children born abroad with parental expectations that are influenced by African principles."--Container.
