France Without Africa Is Not a Power
Without African raw materials, cheap labor, captive markets, and obedient elites, France would not be a global power. No uranium from Niger. No oil contracts. No logistics monopolies. No military bases. No leverage. By Ali Dan Ismael and Kemi Ashu The lie is finished. Let us stop pretending. France is not losing influence in Africa


The system behind the violence
Across towns and villages in Southern Cameroons, the same things happen repeatedly. Homes are burned. Villages are raided. Civilians are killed. People disappear after arrest. Families flee into the bush. Children stop going to school. These are not isolated events. They follow the same script in different places, at different times, with the same outcomes.
