All these actors favor rapists. Good to know.

The Minister of Tourism and Leisure, Belo Bouba Maïgari, has reversed his earlier decision designating Menchum Waterfall, in the North West Region, as a touristic site – ow.ly/XzFO50Qv4mT #MenchumWaterfall #TourismCameroon #TravelDestinations #DiscoverCameroon

Ok folks: What are the immediate and longer term ramifications of Mali et al quitting #ECOWAS? I think this is a big deal.

Nations are sovereign and can deal with anyone - but is it really in Congo's interest to sign a military deal with Russia? What can Congo get out of such an agreement besides instability and theft of its natural resources - as if there hasn't been enough? tass.com/defense/1755957

@Africa_Archives Niger is allowed to do trade with whom they please. If the US wishes to deal with subversive group, fine. Africa is entitled to self determination.

Watch this space going forward: Officials from Mali, Niger, Burkina Faso, Togo and Chad declared "the Alliance of Sahel States is a promising confederation focused on protection of the interests of the population and the development of each State." actucameroun.com/2024/04/01/mal…

It is with great sadness, but also gratitude that we had him with us for so long, that I share the news that my father, Ed Schiff, has passed away at age 96. Boca Eddie, as he was affectionately known, was an Army veteran, and a wonderful father, husband, grandfather and great

Quelle belle scène à contempler ! La démocratie est magnifique ! Le Président sortant Macky Sall saluant le peuple sénégalais en quittant définitivement le palais pour rejoindre son domicile. Il a été chaleureusement acclamé et salué par la foule pour les services rendus à la

I know there are hard feelings on all sides but I can’t get why Somalia cannot accept Somaliland going its own way. The two nations cooperating could achieve so much and Somaliland will never be part of Somalia. Look at Ethiopia/Eritrea, Germany/Austria, Sudan/South Sudan.

Great that US State Dept hosted a US-Africa University Partnership conference April 26 with Asst Secstate for Africa Molly Phee participating. Will be greater if US Congress provides funding to promote long term partnerships - like Harimaya (Ethiopia) had with Oklahoma State.

OK. We (US) messed up big time in engaging with Niger. But the tragedy would be if we don’t learn from it - put down the flipping megaphone; treat our partners as partners; and recognize that some “coups” are different. Let’s start winning again! politico.com/news/2024/05/1…

Read about China’s strategy to shape and control Africa’s media space using funding, content sharing, and training of African journalists, to further advance Chinese political narratives on the continent.

BREAKING: A Medal of Honor recipient torches Donald Trump for his vile claim that the Presidential Medal of Freedom he gave to one of his donors is "actually much better" than the Medal of Honor. Colonel Jack Jacobs didn't pull any punches here... "I can't believe we have to

BREAKING: In a stunning admission, one of the most conservative Senators, Senator James Lankford, admits that it was Donald Trump who sabotaged the toughest border security legislation proposed in decades. Retweet to make sure every American sees this.

Today's UN "Security" Council totally useless. Is there even one recent global crisis it has solved? Results matter so much more than meetings, speeches, or resolutions. Any successful "peacekeeping" operations? But New York's restaurants and hotels are full. No crisis there.

Am 23. Februar entscheidet sich, welcher Kurs sich durchsetzt: Friedrich Merz will der Nuklearmacht Russland ein Ultimatum stellen. Ich kann da nur sagen: In Fragen von Krieg und Frieden braucht es keinen unberechenbaren Oppositionsführer, sondern einen kühlen Kopf.

Excellent overview in Newsweek on how Prez Trump's transactional policy could be great for overall US-Africa engagement. Among those quoted are Dr. J. Peter Pham 🇺🇲 and Dr. Sako, one of the Ambazonia diaspora leaders. Well worth a read. newsweek.com/donald-trump-b…

U.S. Embassy Yaounde I’m sorry to see this but understand. It was a sham election but the U.S. has to work with the Govt. Wish we would take a different path - if we claim to support democracy!
