“The Bravest Man on Earth”: Ibrahim Traoré – “The Right Question Isn’t Why Africa Is Poor, But How It’s Kept Poor While So Rich”
June 25, 2025
The right question isn’t why Africa is poor — it’s how Africa is kept poor while being so rich.” — Ibrahim Traoré, President of Burkina Faso
Africa powers the world: 70% of the world’s cobalt 90% of its platinum 65% of its diamonds 30% of its gold 35% of its uranium
Yet its people live in darkness, poverty, and debt.
Colonialism didn’t end. It evolved. From soldiers to corporations. From whips to contracts. From theft to “trade.”
Africa is not the continent receiving aid — it’s the continent giving it.
