Niger Slams France, EU After Latest Coup Bid; Thousands Rally To Support Tiani | Firstpost Africa
Niger Slams France, EU After Latest Coup Bid; Thousands Rally To Support Tiani | Firstpost Africa Kwabena Ofori Osei 21 Views • 1 month ago

Watch this video as Firstpost explains how Niger has launched a new verbal attack on former colonial ruler France and the European Union. Thousands of demonstrators flooded the Place de la Concertation in Niamey to rally behind General Abdourahamane Tiani following a failed military mutiny that triggered violent clashes across the capital. The uprising targeted strategic infrastructure, including Air Base 101 and areas around the presidential palace, before loyalist forces put down the assault with critical support from Russia's Africa Corps. Organised by pro-junta civil society groups, the rally saw crowds waving Nigerien and Russian flags while chanting anti-imperialist slogans. Speakers and demonstrators directed widespread anger outwards, publicly accusing France, the European Union, and regional allies within ECOWAS of orchestrating the unrest to overthrow the government. Since taking power in July 2023, Tiani’s government has systematically severed ties with traditional Western partners, aligning with Russia alongside neighbouring Sahel states. The latest unrest underscores Niger's deepening reliance on Moscow amid lingering internal instability and shifting regional alliances. Alyson Le Grange brings you more on this story on Firstpost Africa.

Trump’s Nigeria Plan: From Protecting Christians to Guarding Nigeria 🇳🇬 Crude Oil Fields | Africa
Trump’s Nigeria Plan: From Protecting Christians to Guarding Nigeria 🇳🇬 Crude Oil Fields | Africa Kwabena Ofori Osei 24 Views • 1 month ago

Watch this video as Firstpost examines the growing U.S. security footprint in Nigeria and asks whether Donald Trump’s campaign over Christian persecution is becoming connected to a much larger strategic interest: oil. American-made Aerosonde drones supplied by Textron Systems are now being deployed by Nigerian security company Tantita to monitor pipelines and offshore energy assets in the Niger Delta. The development comes as Nigeria’s crude production reaches its highest level in six years. For years, U.S. military cooperation with Nigeria focused largely on fighting Boko Haram and Islamic State militants. But Washington’s pressure over religious freedom, counterterrorism operations, military training and new surveillance technology is now intersecting with Nigeria’s critical energy infrastructure. Does this prove that oil was behind America’s religious freedom campaign? No. But the growing overlap raises a bigger geopolitical question about Washington’s interests in Africa’s largest oil producer. Alyson Le Grange tells you more on Firstpost Africa.

For The Imperialist-Colonial Empire Words Are Just Weapons - It Means Nothing To Them Kwabena Ofori Osei 18 Views • 1 month ago

As the US empire officially removes Syria from over 50 years worth of sanctions lists and integrates it under the leadership of an Al-Qaida affiliate head, the rest of the world is reminded once again that to the empire, objective truth and facts do not exist. It's all just...words.

Afrophobia-Xenophobia Movement: Afriforum &March and March-A Strange Bedfellows in Unholy Union Kwabena Ofori Osei 26 Views • 1 month ago

A xenophobic movement that targets fellow Africans, claiming to fight for Black South Africans now finds common ground with 'AfriForum' - an organisation rooted in the defence of the unjust white-settler colonial power and apartheid-era privilege.

The Spearhead’s Sannario examines how this alliance exposes the complete lack of any fundamental ideological basis beneath March and March!

Dr. Kamau Rashid & Dr. Miron Clay-Gilmore: The Attack On Black Academia
Dr. Kamau Rashid & Dr. Miron Clay-Gilmore: The Attack On Black Academia Kwabena Ofori Osei 30 Views • 1 month ago

Dr. Kamau Rashid & Dr. Miron Clay-Gilmore: The Attack On Black Academia

In this interview, we speak with Dr. Kamau Rashid and Dr. Miron Clay-Gilmore about the ongoing challenges facing Black academics and the broader attack on Black intellectual life.

We take a deep look at the controversy surrounding Jason Arday and what his case reveals about the treatment of Black scholars within academia. The conversation also explores philosophy as a discipline, the role of sociology, and how Black intellectual traditions have challenged dominant academic frameworks.

Drawing on the work and ideas of W.E.B. Du Bois and Huey P. Newton, we discuss Black scholarship, power, knowledge, institutional racism, and the importance of developing intellectual traditions rooted in the experiences and struggles of Black people.

This is a wide-ranging conversation about academia, philosophy, sociology, Black intellectual history, and the future of Black scholarship.

The False Mercator Projection Map And the False Narrative of African Overpopulation
The False Mercator Projection Map And the False Narrative of African Overpopulation Kwabena Ofori Osei 18 Views • 1 month ago

The idea that Africa is "overpopulated" and that the poverty of its people is a function of geographical poverty is one of the most persistently promoted myths in western-dominated global discourse.

In this video, @Big_Mck forensically takes apart this myth, and the adjacent myth of Africa's small geographical size which has been promoted for centuries by the Mercator Projection, revealing them for the pernicious lies they are, and linking these lies totheir ultimate beneficiaries in the capitals of Europe and North America.#africa #population #poverty #thetruth

The AES Is Really Building: The AES Is Building What ECOWAS Was Supposed To Build
The AES Is Really Building: The AES Is Building What ECOWAS Was Supposed To Build Kwabena Ofori Osei 15 Views • 1 month ago

The AES parliament just opened in Niamey. Mali, Burkina Faso and Niger now have a joint army, a bank, a passport and a legislature. Here's what the Alliance of Sahel States is really building after ECOWAS.
he AES parliament just opened in Niamey. Mali, Burkina Faso and Niger now have a joint army, a bank, a passport and a legislature. Here's what the Alliance of Sahel States is really building after ECOWAS.

In August 2026, forty-five deputies sat down in Niamey and opened the first confederal parliament of the Alliance of Sahel States. Fifteen from each country. Three committees: defence and security, diplomacy, development.

It looked like a small story. It isn't.

In six years, Mali, Burkina Faso and Niger went from three separate coups to a mutual defence pact, a 6,000-strong joint force, a confederal development bank, a common passport, a shared import levy, and now a parliament. That is the architecture of a state, built at speed, during a war.

But there's a constraint no resolution can fix. All three countries are landlocked. Every container and every litre of fuel still crosses a border that belongs to someone else.

In this episode we follow the evidence: what was actually built in Niamey, why Sahel security numbers finally improved in 2025, what West African port data reveals about who really holds leverage, and why Morocco is now offering the Sahel a different road to the Atlantic entirely.

No cheerleading. No dismissal. Just the receipts.

SOURCES USED

Security figures come from the Global Terrorism Index published by the Institute for Economics and Peace, and from research by the Institute for Security Studies in Pretoria. Port and corridor data comes from the African Development Bank and Ecofin Agency. Regional analysis draws on Chatham House and the International Crisis Group. Institutional details come from ECOWAS Commission statements and from Sahelian outlets including Burkina24, Le Sahel, Koaci and RTN. Reporting on Morocco's Atlantic Initiative draws on Al Jazeera and the Policy Center for the New South.
