The paradox of Africa’s development is that it contributes over 30% of the world’s mineral reserve, but its share of the global manufacturing index in 2011 stood at 1 percent, as was 11 years before, in 2000.
It is this vast and diverse underground resource like copper, oil, and diamonds that have seen African governments being subservient to a cabal of phantom corporate figures who extract them with reckless abandon.
But while these shadowy figures descend on Africa’s wealth, there is a simultaneous sharp rise in the number of individuals becoming obscenely rich overnight at the expense of the majority who are left at the mercy of donations and philanthropy from the proceeds of their own wealth.
And nothing illustrates this further than the example put forth in the script. That for every Frenchwoman who dies in childbirth, 100 die in Niger; a former French colony but whose uranium fuels the largest France’s nuclear reactors.
Conversely, there is a proportionate increase in senseless violence, vicious extermination campaigns, civil strife, and coordinated attacks in countries enormously endowed with wealth.
The Democratic Republic of Congo is a casualty of the insatiable greed of multinational companies whose penchant for gold transcends human life. On the surface, DRC citizens have no one to blame but themselves for killing each other.
But once you lift the lid, underhand dealings of this shadowy cabal, in collusion with an enlisted militia, fuel the violence. And amidst the confusion, they suck out what they know best; gold. Sudan, Angola, the oil-rich Nigeria, etc. have been cut and fitted into this same cloth.
But the following day, they come under the shade of NGOs and international organizations like FAO, dangling food, vaccines and direct funding to portray themselves as the ultimate savior of the African continent.
It is these same schemes that have seen Bill Gates and his Gates Foundation suddenly get attracted to Africa with the breakout of Covid-19. The money they have made is being used to control and manipulate the policy directions of the World Health Organization by funding their research capacity.
That is why WHO is placing a premium on the development of rapid testing kits for Africa, while cure and vaccine are left to the West as we await to be the fertile testing ground for their medical inventions.
Tom Burgis, an acclaimed author, and prolific investigative writer paints a vivid picture of Africa degenerating into an economic battleground for foreigners who siphon wealth beneath our feet, money from our pockets, and blood from our veins.
But what Tom Burgis insists is that like its victims, the profiteers and beneficiaries of this blatant looting have names. And they must be named.
