Brightest students leave their country and migrate to other countries for studies and jobs. Majdy, one of the brightest students in Sudan,leaves Sudan to go abroad to further his studies and he eventually decides that he will reside there.This change of altitude towards Africa has been influenced by his stay in London.

He detests Khartoum because professional are paid poorly back in Sudan;they cannot afford to buy a house or even a flat,the electricity is constantly on and off,queuing for petrol for long before getting served,people waste time gossiping,the intellectuals like the lecturers spend their time talking about politics,promotion of lecturers is not done on the basis of the research that one has done but on their political affiliations ,poor drainage that lead to mosquitoes breeding and hence malaria and the workers are mostly striking for better pay.He does not see anything good about Sudan.Even the independence that they fought so hard to attain he believes was given to them when the British gave up on them because of their backwardness.There is also war and famine in Sudan.

He considers London to be better than Sudan;it is a place of opportunities,women are free to wear every kind of clothes they feel like even those that would be considered unacceptable back in Sudan. He also considers London civilized. Everything in London seems perfect even their medicine come in different flavors that you wished to be sick.People in London never waste their time on gossip and they make every hour count.Things like religion and compulsory prayers do not matter to them.They are busy doing other important things.
