Are these things really 'strange' or is it just our lack of understanding and respect for different cultures?

[annefalola]

The smelling of food is an African thing. I used to be upset when my foreign friends small my food. I am a Nigerian.

Sometimes content creators should just stay in their countries for real😅

😂😂😂😂 The being on time thing it's a lie, or you simply just misunderstood things. We actually hate when somebody is late for festivities or any invite

The elderly eating 1st? For real..??😂 it's not true

Using a camera flash can do what??😂😂 why would you take someone's photo without their consent though? People hate their photo being taken by foreigners because they end up in different places, mostly with bad or misinformed tags or caption. Nobody wants that...

Forbidden to show public affection??😂😂 nor true.
I'm laughing ma ass out here😂 where the hell did you get this?

The 52yrs old (Mr Laizer) he was rich before that. He just never declared his findings before that one time.

I'm watching this video 😂😂 but I wouldn't be surprised if he says we don't have universities 😂

The left hand thing it's almost all of Africa.

Sometimes try to understand the whole Tz culture not just Zanzibar. We have more than 120 ethnic group...this video is misleading . I'm Tanzanian born and raised

Photography is not forbidden in Tanzania 🇹🇿
You just can't take a picture of someone without their consent.

According to the statistics, albinism statistics from Tanzania, particularly from the 2012 National Population and Housing Census. Indeed, albinism is relatively rare in most populations, but Tanzania has one of the highest rates in the world. The census reported 0.04% of the mainland population as being albino, which, based on Tanzania’s total population at the time (over 44 million), would place the number of individuals with albinism in the tens of thousands—roughly around 17, 000 to 20, 000. However, some estimates suggest that the actual number could be higher, potentially over 100, 000.

If you are producing a video or discussing the topic, it’s crucial to rely on accurate sources and clarify the variability in estimates, which can depend on how albinism is documented and recognized in official data. Including such context ensures clarity and precision.

On the issue of killing of people with albinism we have laws protecting people with disability (albinism included) also we have cases decided by High Court in which those perpetrators including few dishonest traditional health practitioners were sentenced into life imprisonment.
