The US has officially suspended the Green Card Lottery (DV Program) — and across Africa and the diaspora, hearts just SKIPPED a beat. For millions, the DV Lottery wasn’t just a visa program.
It was hope. One form. One email. One dream

In today’s Ted Makambo comedy breakdown, we talk about:

• The suspension of the DV (Diversity Visa) Lottery
• Why Africans call it “the hope package”
• Parents reacting like: “Maybe America is not for you”
• WhatsApp groups spreading urgent updates and fake solutions
• The reality of immigration dreams and paperwork
• Why Africans don’t stop dreaming — we just find another FORM

This episode mixes humor, truth, and diaspora reality — because sometimes laughter is the only way to process big news.

COMMENT OF THE DAY:
Did you (or someone you know) ever apply for the DV Lottery? How do you feel about this suspension?
