Timi Frank Urges Africa-US Alliance

Political activist Timi Frank has urged African leaders, including Bola Tinubu, to reject renewed agreements with France and instead deepen strategic partnerships with the United States. Frank accuses France of decades of exploitation in Africa, citing countries like Burkina Faso, Mali, and Nigeria as examples where French influence has not led to meaningful development. He advocates for stronger bilateral relations with the United States in areas such as security, election integrity, trade, and investment, believing it would offer Africa a more beneficial partnership. Frank also expressed optimism about a future Donald Trump administration offering better terms for Africa.
