African states still fighting for independence from the white men

 The USA and the West profess to be against dictatorial rule in any country, but under the surface they are deviously supporting those Dictators in many countries in Africa. This is an open secret that everyone knows. But Africans themselves are now waking up and know that changes are needed, and the lure of progress is too great to miss. This is their only chance as exploited countries of the Global South, while the momentum rising with BRICS is running in their favour.

If dictators do not follow the dictates of the USA and share their country's resources with the USA and the West, they are deemed evil and bad, and must be taken down and a stooge installed instead. However, if deposed dictators like those in Niger and Gabon in Africa follow the USA and Western countries' dictate, and allow the USA and the West to exploit the country's resources freely, they are deemed to be deserving of support. Support in this context means propping up the dictatorial rule, that benefits the Coloniser and installed stooge President, but not helping the country as a whole. The intention is to keep that country perennially poor and easy to control and exploit.

Exploiting the country without giving anything back in return is what is causing all the anger and resulting in those coups. The reality is that Africans are opening their eyes, seeing neighbours progressing and developing with infrastructures like ports, airports, roads and rails, by working with China. Co-operating with China also benefits both countries in a win win situation, with joint ventures to run the extraction of resources and sharing the fruits of their co-operation, as opposed to the wholesale exploitation and sharing of part of the proceeds with stooge dictators, without doing much for the country. That is why the 'debt trap' fabrication comes into play to sabotage the BRI, which is at the forefront of the eradication of poverty.

Niger is giving France the ultimatum to leave the country by September 3, with the ousted President begging the USA and France to help restore his rule. The ousted Gabon President is also appealing to the USA and France for help. It shows that these two are beholden to the USA and the West and owed their stooge Presidency to the two evil colonisers.

Africa is throwing itself off from the shackles of colonial rule forever, and a united Africa of 1.4 billion people is not an easy prey to take down. This is not the old days of a one sided conflict of guns vs spears and arrows. Moreover, Russia and China are there to provide support and protect their interest as well. Further, countries like South Africa are perfectly capable of taking care of itself and no pushover in weaponry. An African uprising is not to be scoffed at, reading history and watching movies like 'Black Hawk Down'.

Should the USA or France decide to interfere in Niger or Gabon, plunging Africa into war, they have to think of what they are facing. The evacuation of their troops and nationals from rooftops in Vietnam is not what they would like to face for sure. Even Afghanistan gave them a hard lesson in defeat, having to leave behind US$ billions in weaponry, which the Afghans have restored some to usefulness. To them it may just be inconsequential and just running the printing presses will take care of that.
