Adamu Ibrahim, Central Iowan resident, whose homeland is Sokoto, Nigeria, describes his home community and the realities of being a citizen of a country on the African Continent who comes to the USA for education and opportunity. He responds to recent negative stereo types put out there by the US President about his country and those who come here from those countries. This is part of a KHOI series of first-hand talks with people from the countries that have been disparaged to gain understanding of those countries and local immigrants' lives.
