The World Bank has warned that Nigeria’s poverty levels are rising fast and will likely get worse in the coming years. A high cost of living and poor wages have eroded earnings and plunged millions into poverty. And the situation isn't helped by the government's decision to end decades of petrol subsidies.

Al Jazeera’s Ahmed Idris reports from Dan Tawaya, northwest Nigeria.

#africarising IbrahimTraore just received a hero’s welcome in Bobo-Dioulasso—but what’s behind this electrifying show of support? From roadside crowds to traditional dancers, the city lit up like never before as the Burkinabè leader arrived to launch key projects in agriculture, livestock, and food production. But this wasn’t just about fanfare—Traore came to deliver real reforms, including new farming equipment, a cashew factory, and local veterinary drug production. Why are young Africans rallying behind him like never before? Is this a new Sankara moment? Or the rise of a deeper African awakening? Watch now and join the conversation.

⁣In a historic move, President Ibrahim Traoré has launched a massive free land distribution program, granting 80,000 Burkinabe citizens land ownership. This bold initiative is aimed at empowering local communities and reducing poverty. The announcement has sparked excitement across the Sahel.

⁣Midrand, South Africa – It wasn't just another day at Nizamiye Primary and High School. The school grounds became a vibrant hub of innovation, ideas, and hope. Over 185 projects from Grade 4 to Grade 10 learners lit up the Nizamiye Science Expo 2025, with one purpose: to solve real-world problems faced by South Africa and the continent.

Each corridor echoed passionately—from makeshift DNA labs to eco-brick construction demos, from human-powered energy generators to piezoelectric tiles that lit up with every footstep.

Tamil Hassan Binda showed us how extracting DNA doesn't need a lab—just household ingredients and curiosity.

Azaria and Sarah took energy to the streets (literally!) with tiles that generate power when you walk—imagine lighting up Joburg's sidewalks just by walking.

A young innovator designed a human-powered USB charger using a crank and dynamo to tackle load-shedding, proving that when Eskom goes dark, innovation shines.

A hydro-powered grid project reminded us of the untapped potential of Africa's rivers. At the same time, another team tackled heart health by analyzing how energy drinks affect the cardiovascular system and proposing natural alternatives like beetroot juice and green tea.

Another standout is eco-bricks, which are built from eggshells, plastic, and soil. They are strong, sustainable, and a brilliant solution to Africa's plastic waste crisis.

Why it matters:
This is more than a school expo. It's a vision of Africa led by its youth. These learners are not just studying science; they're applying it to transform communities, address power crises, improve public health, and rethink sustainability.
Initiatives like these spark the homegrown solutions that BRICS and Agenda 2063 champion, as the continent grapples with energy challenges, environmental threats, and youth unemployment.
Africa's future isn't waiting. It's being built—one school science expo at a time.

While Ibrahim Traore was away in Russia some insurgents were said to have invaded a military barracks and created some havoc. But on return from Russia after the Victory Day celebrations, Ibrahim Traore swung into action. About a hundred attackers were rounded up and the other suffered a terrible fate. Ibrahim Traore was simply enraged, and the insurgents felt it.Ibrahim Traore has just crushed the insurgents in Burkina Faso and, in doing so, has humiliated France on Sahel soil, sending shockwaves through Africa and the international community. Today, we dive deep into the story behind Captain Ibrahim Traore’s rise, his stunning military victories, and the new era he’s ushering in for Burkina Faso and the wider Sahel. Is this the dawn of real African sovereignty, or just another chapter in the region’s long struggle with foreign influence and internal strife? Watch till the end as we unpack the facts, the controversies, and the future that Ibrahim Traore is shaping—one that could change the balance of power in West Africa forever.

Africa is rich—rich in copper, oil, gold, diamonds, and people. But its wealth flows out while its people remain in poverty.

Stealing Africa
Release date: November 28, 2012 (Finland)
Director: Christoffer Guldbrandsen
Writer: Niels Borchert Holm
Stars: Christoffer Guldbrandsen, Bernhard Elsener, Ivan Glasenberg
Country of origin: Denmark
Language: English
Also known as: Plundringen av Afrika
Filming locations: Rüschlikon, Horgen, Kanton Zürich, Switzerland
Production companies: Guldbrandsen Film, The Why Foundation

Stealing Africa explores the mechanisms that keep the continent poor long after the end of formal colonial rule—revealing how modern multinational corporations, global tax havens, and unjust trade systems continue to extract resources and wealth on a massive scale.

At the center of the story is Zambia, home to the third largest copper reserves in the world, yet a country where 60% of the population survives on less than $1 a day and 80% are unemployed. Meanwhile, in the idyllic Swiss village of Rüschlikon, local government coffers overflow thanks to one resident: Ivan Glasenberg, CEO of Glencore, a commodities giant whose Zambian copper mines generate billions—but almost no tax revenue for Zambia.

Through extensive research and access to public financial records, the documentary uncovers how multinational corporations legally avoid paying taxes through transfer pricing, offshore shell companies, and favorable tax treaties. The result? For every dollar in aid Africa receives, ten dollars quietly vanish—spirited away through financial flows that benefit corporations and wealthy nations.

Stealing Africa is not just a film about economics—it’s about power, inequality, and accountability. It lays bare the modern architecture of plunder and asks the crucial question: What does it mean to be "post-colonial" when the money still flows in the same direction?

Produced by Steps International, this documentary is part of the “Why Poverty?” series and remains a vital watch for anyone interested in global justice, development, and the real cost of globalization.

Big Cocoa: Price Struggles In West Africa - Large corporations, also known as Big Cocoa, control the price of raw cocoa on the West African market and keep global prices low. But what can be done about this and how are prices actually set?

Big Cocoa: Price Struggles In West Africa (2024)
Interviews: Paul Schoenmakers, Michel Arrion, Axel Emmanuel Gbaou, Antonie Fountain, Terry Collingsworth
Genre: Documentary
Country: Germany
Language: English

Synopsis:
Around 5 million farmers produce cocoa beans worldwide, and they are exposed to the direct effects of world market prices for raw cocoa on a daily basis. Large corporations control the price of raw cocoa on the West African market and keep prices low. In 2020, Côte d'Ivoire called for a regulated minimum price for raw cocoa, and in 2022 the EU enforced stricter supply chain laws. However, it remains unclear whether these measures will actually lead to fair prices for West Africa in the long term. Moconomy interviewed VOICE Network, Tony's Chocolonely, Chocolatier Ivoirienne, the ICCO and human rights lawyer Terry Collingsworth to investigate how cocoa prices are set in the West African trade in raw cocoa - an issue that continues to cause controversy.
