Very sad to hear this, Steven. Unfortunately, as a Mauritian, I can attest to the small-mindedness of Mauritian people, and how their behaviour many times is based on negative, and outdated stereotypes. I think especially the staff at the airport need to be trained and educated about African visitors, and how to treat them in a polite and professional way. Even as a Mauritian man, If I am travelling alone and coming back to Mauritius, I'm always singled out for secondary screening of my baggage. We have to do better, but it takes a lot to breakthrough the remnants of the colonial mindset in Mauritius. To be honest, what I encourage expats to do there is just build a vibrant community of expats and to socialize among themselves, adding the occasional Mauritian with the right mindset. Most Mauritians are a lost cause unfortunately. As for the Creole population, it's tough but they are finding ways to become successful in specific avenues and industries such as construction.

I see people curious to know why Igbo mansions have a high pitch roof, i noticed the guy on white shirt couldnt explain it better. Well, from my days as an Architecture student in Nekede, our design professors will insist you make the roof from 2.6m to 3ms high mostly at angle 45 degrees cos we live in tropical rain forest zone, it makes water run off faster and when sun is much, it reduces the heat radiation from the roof to the rooms, making the temperature normal and lastly, it's for esthetics, means it brings a unique beauty to the house. This is what i still remember from 15yrs ago, as i didnt go on with the profession, i wish to read from another architect
