This story remind me of a krio woman name Mamie Williams she was a strict woman and a best friend of my step mother and we are almost a family members visiting each other. What this woman is saying about friendship is the same thing happening between the Williams family and the Biro family in kono district.May your soul rest in peace Mamie Williams

I am listening from Jamaica, one of our National Heroine, is Nanny of the Maroon.

[@okekechidi3377]

almost all the Maroons from both Jamaica and Serria Leone are from the Akan people of Ghana.. the Akans are your big brothers. Respect them.

[@mozisrozis]

This is so beautiful salone na wi ol yone Hurrah!!!!

[@jacobgmarley5662]

Nice video and very entertaining. Although the video is over a year but I am interested in getting the book you and Mrs Pratt read. I loved Krio and would like to learn it. On my way to the U S over 26 years ago from Liberia I went through Sierra Leone and loved the people and culture.

Tenki tenki me sister 👍🏾❤️

My fellow anglophone Cameroonian brothers and I travelled to Sierra Leone in 2011 to attend the Sierra Leone Law School and a week later, all of us could understand a great deal of basic Krio. Almost all of Sierra Leone's staple meals are very common in Cameroon. Krio sounds very close to the Cameroon anglophone pidgin when spoken without jagons. Felt like home away from home. After a month, most of us could speak Krio pretty well.

[@VickieRemoe]

We have a lot in common. Some Krios from Sierra Leone did settle in Cameroon😊

[@atauboburiyaunuase2733]

​@@VickieRemoe I heard there is a small Krio community in the coastal town of Limbe in Cameroon. I don't know how true it is.

[@segbwemabee5757]

Just listen to Sanfan Thomas music Freetown Titi Connection. You can understand the link!

[@saidusesay1452]

Krio is a unique family

[@wellbodisalone]

It definitely is!

[@MEDLAJMUSSILLAH-vw4od]

So interesting ❤️🥰 💚🤍💙

[@VickieRemoe]

Thanks for watching

[@akindele13]

We cooked Cassava and Potato leaves. It must be her family. But she's right, Plasas and Fufu only Saturday. Stew and Jollof on Sunday.😂

[@anniemcjohnson6104]

We did too but you must agree creoles are not really into cassava leaves and potato leaves.I've never asked my mum but it's possible our grandparents were not cooking those leaves or picked it up from other tribes.

[@akindele13]

@@anniemcjohnson6104 You actually right, now that I think about. In Sierra Leone, we really didn't eat it that much. But in United States, we ate Cassava and Potato leaves a lot more then any other stew.

[@bintabeebee5808]

You don do well bo fine Gyal

[@Boyyy7]

Nice one🫶🏿

[@henringallikingue910]

Krio look like pidgin english in cameroon

[@omarsonko779]

The krio ancestors come from Nigeria the tribe call yorubas people same culture same food nothing different is just krio language the krio people are indigenous west African taking to American for slavery and come to sierra leone 👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿

[@okekechidi3377]

The Krios are all not all from one place. Some are from several distinct ethnic groups from Nigeria, Ghana etc.. some are descendants of Black Carribeans, Black Canadian and black Americans (still of African descent). I am an IGBO and we know our descendants amongst the Krio people and they know us very well. The first IGBO union was first founded in Serria leon, by the IGBO krios more than 170 years before the IGBOS of Nigeria founded theirs. It is through the IGBO union of Serria leone that the IGBOS of Nigeria have mentained their kinship with their younger brothers and sisters from Serria Leone. Many of our serria leonean kit and kins were with us in Enugu in the 50s and early 60s until the tragedy of the biafran war. OJUKWU had to airlift them back to Serria Leone for their safety. The first president of Serria Leone was an IGBO Krio by the name of Okoro Cole..

[@innocentadewaleaiyenuro5049]

i hear so yoruba words

[@ayyodele]

Obayinka, Olayinka.......Yoruba names. Mek God be with una.........from a Yoruba Nigerian. By the way: Kushe in Yoruba means Weldone. Komorjadey......sounds like words derived from Yoruba 'Jade'- go out

[@MemeMeme-jt2bw]

listen Vicky Remoe you will pay for what you've done to sierra Leonean

[@margaretjimmy1161]

There is no Krio tribe in Sierra Leone. You people need to wake up and learn more about your ancestor.
