The problem is Western-style democracy. Africa should have adopted a pattern of democracy that suits their culture and tradition. There is nothing wrong with a life presidency if the ruler is doing well. Another tool of control is the World Bank and the International Monetary Fund. These organizations are used to manipulate the financial system of African nations and make it dependent on Western aid. The conditions for loans are arranged to favour Western economies, which use the continent as a place for cheap raw materials. The International Court of Justice (ICJ) is a tool to bully African leaders into doing the bidding of these controlling powers. Very soon, Capt Ibrahim Traoré will be declared wanted by the court for some concocted reasons.
This image says it all. I go raving mad when I think about it. This is also one of reasons why I will never insult anyone who's poor with his English and vocabulary. This is Iranian head sparking up the fire in Africans to rise up indirectly. They did this to Africa but they will never do to Iran 🇮🇷
I love the past, I love reading about it. I can mention a few names who said no to the International Monetary Fund, depending on their own resources and also saw their country bloom in Africa. ( Gaddafi, Thomas Sankara and Sam Nujoma of Namibia ). The same way we have Bitcoin trying to fix the world finance, we also need something else fixing the World Bank and IMF.
The damage done by the IMF and WB should be motivation enough for every African and Nigerian to support and advocate for the joining of BRICS. The IMF did not just damage Naira bad but also economy with their dirth IMF Bs!
