00:00My biggest dream was to always go to Africa.

00:04I booked the flights to Benin Republic and after two weeks I found out that I got pregnant.

00:11In two years she will be a single mother.

00:14Black men hate weave on black women but will let white women parade in black aesthetics, black hair and black accents.

00:22I didn't notice that my accent changed. My accent turned Nigerian when we fell in love.

00:27Who is gonna tell her? Tell me what.

00:31My name is Sarah and this is my partner Cyprine and my accent turned Nigerian when we fell in love.

00:39In 2021 I saw this beautiful lady on the story post of an artist in Nigeria, Olamide.

00:46She was vibing to the song with her then boyfriend.

00:49I saw she loved horses and I was like, ah, this is really my person.

00:55Then I saw his page with dancing and dancing to Afrobeats.

00:59I think in 2022 we started to keep more contact because then she was not in a relationship anymore.

01:07And my biggest dream was to always go to Africa.

01:11So any country in Africa.

01:17I booked the flights to Benin Republic.

01:20And I think from the first day that we met, we were just together.

01:25We never said, are we together now?

01:27At the beginning, of course, when I went, I did not tell my family actually that I went to Africa.

01:33I just traveled alone and I only told my mom like five days ago.

01:39I said, mom, I'm actually going to Africa.

01:41What? You're going to Africa?

01:42I said, yeah.

01:43I did not tell anybody because I knew that people would come and say, ah, Sarah, I don't think you should go.

01:48It is too dangerous.

01:50It is too this.

01:51And I was like, no, I just want to do what I want to do.

01:58This is a dish I ate for the first time in Benin called Banga soup.

02:04This is the palm cream.

02:06We have already cooked meat ingredients for it.

02:09Banga spice.

02:10Let's get started.

02:12Okay, show us the dish.

02:14Ah!

02:15Damn, you're cool.

02:16We eat all the food before it's finished.

02:26After we met, I actually went back home.

02:29And after two weeks, I found out that I got pregnant.

02:32It was not planned.

02:33It was not intentional.

02:35And we said, okay, but we are sure that we want to keep the baby.

02:39I said, okay, that's meant to be.

02:41It's meant to be.

02:42It's meant to be.

02:43But he could not be with us while I gave birth because they didn't allow him to come.

02:51The visa took too much time.

02:53And I had to give birth alone.

02:55Yeah.

02:56I had to see everything on the video call.

02:58Yeah.

02:59It was very, very emotional.

03:01But now you're here.

03:02Yeah.

03:03Yeah.

03:04Yeah.

03:05Yeah.

03:06I'm proud of it.

03:07Ah!

03:08There it goes.

03:09One minute now.

03:11One minute.

03:12No.

03:13It does.

03:14It doesn't like the testing.

03:15Never actually speaking.

03:16It's not finished.

03:17We met after one year again.

03:19After one year.

03:20I flew with our newborn baby.

03:22Four months old.

03:23I flew alone to Africa.

03:24To Benin.

03:25And we met us then again.

03:28I actually met our child only the second time I'm meeting Sarah.

03:35And me not seeing him in real life till it got to four months.

03:39It was something I never thought.

03:41I knew I wanted to be a father someday.

03:44But I never thought that was how everything was going to come out or pan out.

03:49But yeah.

03:50And since then, she's been visiting till we could actually reunite in Germany.

03:58Voila.

03:59My darling wife made us a nice grand dish.

04:03I can't wait to start it.

04:06While learning to make manga soup online, I also learned and picked up some pidgin and

04:13Yoruba words.

04:14And somehow, Max had also turned Nigerian.

04:17It just happened.

04:18Proud of me, baby.

04:20To the seeds.

04:22Okay.

04:23I've noticed before.

04:25Mmm.

04:26So sweet.

04:28Our TikTok page started growing.

04:32It was there that we got a lot of judgment.

04:35Judgment like, in two years, she will be a single mother.

04:40I'm with her because of the German passport.

04:44They said, don't trust African men.

04:47See this one.

04:48Please don't come back to Europe.

04:51Somebody said, disgusting.

04:53Disgusting.

04:54Oh, wow.

04:55Wow.

04:56Who is going to tell her?

04:57Tell me what.

04:58Tell her.

04:59Yes.

05:00Somebody said, African men are gay and chitras.

05:04Trust me.

05:05I know for real.

05:06Oh, wow.

05:07Yeah.

05:08Single mother incoming.

05:10I like men as now gold diggers.

05:13Oh, wow.

05:14Yeah.

05:15Really?

05:16Am I digging gold?

05:17Oh.

05:18Somebody said, black men hate weave on black women.

05:22But will let white women parade in black aesthetics, black hair and black accents.

05:27And you have the Nigerian accent.

05:29Oh.

05:30She should keep crying.

05:32I think we are strong people.

05:34We don't care.

05:35Like, we just live our lives.

05:37I like the judgment because it makes us viral.

05:42Oh, gentleman.

05:45We're about to show you some African attires and Greek traditional attires.

05:51This amazing Ankara material.

05:55The western part of Nigeria.

05:58We are the Yorubas.

06:00I'm a Yoruba boy.

06:01And we live there Ankara for events like weddings, naming ceremony.

06:08I think I speak Nigerian English for like since 2019 now.

06:13So six years.

06:14She's a prof.

06:15I'm somebody when I speak, I can adapt to the language then.

06:18Or when I speak Greek, I adapt to Greek.

06:19When I speak German, I adapt to German.

06:21She picks up the accents everywhere she goes.

06:24And this is my Greek traditional dress.

06:28Can you hold this please?

06:30It's very heavy.

06:31It's very heavy.

06:32In Greece, each area has their own kind of dresses, their own language, their own dances.

06:37So this dress is now coming from the area Pontos in Greece.

06:42Shout out to the Greek family, man.

06:45I didn't notice that my accent changed until one day I was speaking.

06:50And then my friends came and said, Sarah, what are you speaking?

06:54I cannot even really understand you.

06:55Are you speaking English?

06:56I said, yeah, I think it's Nigerian English.

07:00It is heavy because this was usually for the people that were a bit richer.

07:05They would wear this on their head like this.

07:10But now we wait for dancing our Greek traditional dances.

07:14What I love about Sarah is determination to get things done.

07:29And I think as a man, you need a woman who is driven.

07:35I love that she has a very beautiful eyes.

07:39It's amazing, you know.

07:41It's a long distance and finally, we are here.

07:47What I love most about Cyprien is he's passionate about wanting to have a family

07:52and passionate about wanting a good life.

07:55And for those judging our relationship, I pray you find healing.

08:00Keep on.

08:03Keep on.

08:04We are here.

08:05Hopefully you find healing.

08:07Go swipe, love don't judge.

08:30Be true.

08:31Bye.

08:32Bye.

08:33Bye.
