In this second part of our in-depth conversation with Dr. Joel, we examine the fate of Africans in Europe and the deeper forces driving irregular migration. Dr. Joel explains how Africans — even after gaining citizenship — are often treated as second-class citizens in conservative European societies, and why language, politics, and entrenched discrimination continue to shape their daily struggles.
He contrasts the relative openness of the UK, US, and Canada with the challenges faced in countries like Portugal, Poland, and Spain.
The interview goes beyond migration routes and asylum policies to explore: Why young Africans risk their lives crossing the Sahara and Mediterranean
How irregular migration drains billions from European governments
The failed leadership in Africa that drives desperation and poverty
The link between unemployment, corruption, and the decision to migrate
Historical roots of Africa’s crisis: slavery, elite failures, and resource exploitation Dr. Joel raises difficult but necessary questions: Why do Africans continue to blame external forces without fixing internal leadership failures?
Why does Africa trade one form of dependency (on the West) for another (on China or Russia)?
This thought-provoking conversation is not just about migration — it’s about Africa’s political future, youth survival, and the urgent need for accountability at home.
