Between climate change, rising prices and security threats, Burkina Faso has an urgent need to develop sustainable food sovereignty. In response to this challenge, the Burkinabe government has launched an “agriculture offensive”, which aims to reduce the food imports that put a strain on foreign reserves and everyone from farmers to city dwellers. Across the country, we meet local farmers and cooperatives who have received support while experts reflect on how the country’s recent and current history precipitates the goal of a thriving agriculture sector, and ultimately, self-sufficiency.

⁣Welcome back to ABIBITUMI TV, your trusted source for unfiltered news and analysis on African affairs.
I'm your host, and today we are discussing on bold move that underscores Niger's determination and sovereignty , as Niger refused to renew Orano's mining license for the Imouraren mines in June 2024. But that was just the beginning. While Orano managed to retain control of the smaller Somair uranium mine, it has now lost operational control of this last stronghold to Niger's military administration. The tide has clearly turned against Orano, marking a series of significant setbacks for the French nuclear giant. This historic move not only shifts the balance of power in the nuclear energy industry but also signifies a bold step towards self-determination for Niger. But what does this mean for France, Africa, and the broader global energy landscape? Today, we dive into the details of this dramatic development and its far-reaching implications. This decisive move by Niger’s military government marks the culmination of a broader strategy to reclaim sovereignty over its natural resources. For decades, Niger has been a significant uranium supplier, particularly to France, where uranium fuels a substantial portion of its nuclear energy sector. Before the coup in Niger last year, the country provided 15–20% of France’s uranium needs. However, this era of dependency is now over. #captaineibrahimtraore #burkinafaso #capitaineibrahimtraoré #ibrahimtraoré

In 1984, President Captain Thomas Sankara shocked the world with a bold speech at the United Nations — but what happened after is rarely talked about.He walked the streets of Harlem, met with African Americans, and made a powerful discovery: the struggle of Black people in America and Africa were deeply connected. From that moment, he envisioned a global institution to unite the Black world — the Institut des Peuples Noirs.Decades later, in 2025, Burkina Faso's new revolutionary leader Ibrahim Traoré is reviving that vision — and Black America is watching. This is the secret link between Black America and Burkina Faso that history tried to erase.In this video, we explore:- Sankara’s visit to Harlem and his message to the diaspora 🇺🇸✊🏿- The founding of the Institut des Peuples Noirs (IPN) 🏛️- Ibrahim Traoré’s bold decision to bring it back in 2025 🔥- Why this moment matters for Pan-Africanism and Black unity 🌍🔔 Subscribe for more stories #ibrahimtraoré #thomassankara #burkinafaso #panafricanism #africa #america #blackamerica

Senegalese Prime Minister Ousmane Sonko has strongly condemned the book by French historian Séverine Awenengo Dalberto, entitled "The Idea of ​​Autonomous Casamance". During a meeting in Ziguinchor, he described the publication as a "destabilization project" aimed at stirring up tensions in the region.

Ever wondered why the wealthy are leaving behind their mansions in Europe and America? This isn't just another video about African development - it's the untold story of a quiet revolution happening in Burkina Faso that's shocking global financial institutions.
I spent months digging into why billionaires and millionaires are suddenly packing up and heading to a country most people couldn't find on a map. What I discovered left me speechless.
President Traoré didn't just reject the IMF - he created something that's attracting the world's wealthy like moths to a flame. It's not about charity or guilt. It's about something much more powerful.
From tax incentives to citizenship offers for the wider African diaspora, Burkina Faso is writing a new playbook that could change how wealth flows across the entire continent.
One returnee told me, "I had three houses in London, but what I'm building here will outlive me." Another said, "For the first time, I feel like my money is doing more than just making more money."
Whether you're part of the African diaspora or just someone who cares about global economics, this story will change how you think about development, wealth, and what really motivates people with money.
Watch till the end to see the most surprising factor that's driving this wealth migration - it's not what any economist predicted.

In Burkina Faso, there are reports that 200 soldiers have been killed in attacks by an Al Qaeda affiliate.
It happened in the northern province of Loroum. The attacks follow an earlier assault in which 60 soldiers were killed at a military post in the same province.
Nearly half of Burkina Faso is not under government control.
Attacks from armed groups linked to al Qaeda are on the rise, not only in Burkina Faso but other African countries in the Sahel.

Al Jazeera’s Nicolas Haque joins us from Dakar for the latest updates.

A grassroots organisation called the Black African Defence League held a rally on 2 February outside of the US Embassy in Ouagadougou, Burkina Faso. Ralliers demanded US military bases withdraw from the country and they denounced US imperialist policy. African Stream's Salifu Mack scored an exclusive interview at the demonstration with the group's national coordinator.

US and French military bases—from which NATO operations can originate—encircle Burkina Faso, Mali and Niger, all founding members of the newly formed Alliance of Sahel States. These three countries recently experienced coups that ousted Western-aligned leaders and they have cooperated in recent months to secure their territory. Plus, they announced during a 28 January joint televised event that they plan to exit the French-approved Economic Community of West African States (ECOWAS).

The group delivered a letter on 2 February to the embassy, condemning current and future interference in the internal affairs of AES member-states. In addition, the letter denounces potential weaponisation of the United Nations against AES states. It reminded the embassy that the people that the AES represents are 'united behind their leaders.'

The letter concludes, 'We address this, first, as a warning, and we reserve the right to call on the peoples of the AES to preserve their interests, as well as throughout Africa.'
