Is African minerals a blessings or a curse?

 Opinion news

               I was watch video on you tube, then I find this page Alain Foka officiel, sharing some of great topic on Africa wealth and politic, by that I ask myself this question is our minerals a blessing or a curse? maybe we do not know how to take care of the things God has give us? from that video I come across according to the statistic presented by him, it happen that most of the mineral of the world is in Africa and with most around 70% plus of the reserve is here in Africa.

               Amazing or I am shocked but standing with my eyes wide open, to see and know that African most them live below poverty level, let me put figure on it most African family live below 1$ but their land is so rich that without their land most of the things make those to be qualify as rich people or countries will not be, sometimes I ask myself who did even classify some countries or continent as poor or under developpe? what is the criteria? because some or most this things is been impose to the poor and it is a model for them to be poor to carry the so called wealthy countries for life, this is what I called a rich men living from the blood of the poor men and knowing without that poor men is life is nothing therefore he make sure the system stay and for life.

              Let just give you these 3 examples, first Ghana and Ivory Cost they are the two great produce of Cocoa in the world their productions alone is 70% of all the production of the world and we all know very well without Cocoa there no chocolate, but they are bully by these super rich corporations that make chocolate, from imposing prices even bringing the prices down, with the contract which I called slave contract which go like 100 years of the same prices but the chocolate prices go high each and every months, Congo have cobalt and coper and coltan and 70% of these mineral is in Congo and we all know that without these mineral they will be no Telsa, I mean no electrical cars, also no smart phone and all these smart gadgets, but Congolese are in the poor condition even their dogs in their home are far more better than the Congolese where this things come from, third and last but the example are many no books can contain all of it, the Chinese invasion of Africa I will like to sound the alarm bell as a prophet one day we will wake up or our children will wake up to be told that they have no country anymore to call home because their father did sell it for nothing to the Chinese mafia who are coming here and taking everything and doing nothing for the African.

            I will conclude on this for the 100% of the Congolese mineral 70% is in the hand of the so called multi corporation company who did buy those company next to nothing and they are not even respecting the contract and the contract which run for 100 years, how can you sign a contract like that which will include even the generation which know nothing about you, 30% which is for the Congolese government which the government can not even run it then come the one I called the vampire who come to suck the remaining blood out of the body, these vampire are worse than the multi corporation the double the slavery of poor Congolese who work and live in the condition of animal.

           All this make me to realize that every times our politicians or African sit on the negotiation table he always come out a looser, I will like to call to the new generation to wake up and bring skill at the negotiation table and all the contract must be review and rewrite for the better life of all African children to enjoy his or her wealth given to them by God.

  God bless Africa  

It is pre democracy time in Africa politic

 Opinion news 

               Let us reflect on our politic in in Africa, the situations right now are making us to think we are in the Africa time of pre democracy, when a strong man can ascended into power with the help of the soldiers and the government in place will be topple without any says of the people.

                  When to understand or the Africa of the post colonization it was with the politic of one state and one party without democracy and election, meaning the president is in power for life no one will challenger him or question is authority everyone will sing his songs and dance to his tune, if you do not follow his way you will be killed and cast out of the cake of the country that also bring the country without a proper justice.

                 But after the end of the cold war we were promise a better Africa, where political no one will live in fear of his life and the end of strong man but the beginning of ideas and principles with a democracy and where the people have the future of their life or country in their own hand, one of  the great decision was no more coup and toppling the government by force which mean every government will have the peace of mind, no more fear of being topple by a so called strong man, and that was also the end of having a president for life, then one of the best things was or is the constitution is now let me called it the bible of the country, and the presidential term is now put only to two terms but then as in Africa people most of time are not satisfy, politicians again this people were the one who put this law in paper and they are the one again are going against it, because as they say power can corrupt you easily , then the two term is no longer enough constitution is been change to more than two term even  to life again like the period of pre democracy but this time around there is a so called election, this measure have made us to see the man like Alpha Conde, Sassou, Paul Mbiya, Kagame and many more to be in power for more than 20 years , and  now we are seeing the old habit of the coup coming back and being support by the western power, countries like CHAD the president died or killed no one know then his son became the president without being vote into power but supported by the French president, Mali they have been there two coup and democratically elected government was topple by the junta with a strong man until now no election and civilian are out of government, last week event in Guinee Conakry where  Alpha Conde first he change the constitution for him to go for term number 3, knowing he is 80+ of age and he make a fraud election let me says two wrongs does not not make right he is been topple by a coup but all the African institution are making noise of let order and the constitution be restored and respected, Kagame just make it impossible for anyone to be president in Rwanda by being now a life president, what is shocking is many in Africa are thinking that he is a role model the way of leading a country,in conclusion A U is powerless or even useless to make any authority or give the moral way or the direction to follow because they are all the same.

                Can African leader for once think of their people who are dying every day by trying the cross the sea to go to Europe, by trying hard to implement their own resolution which is adopted in the constitution which is like the bible than wanting to bring Africa and African population back to time of pre democracy, but in all of this there is also a success story to tell of country like Ghana, Botwana, Benin, Zambia, Namibia and others where democracy is been successful run.

     Thank you be bless Africa
