AU Seat at G-21, Jeffrey Sachs, and the exploitation of Africa, By Babafemi A. Badejo

For me, Professor Sachs could be of much help to the 1.4 billion people of Africa, probably as opposed to their bad leaders, if he directs a detailed study that builds on the thoughts of Walter Rodney, Arikana etc., to unravel the mechanisms of the continued ripping-off and exploitation of Africans by private interests actively supported by their respective national governments and the Bretton Woods institutions etc.

I use repeated because this thought system dates from a long line of agitators for the independence of Africa and scholars such as Dr Walter Rodney inand more recently, Dr Arikana Chihombori-Quao in many speeches and YouTube videos beyond herArikana was fired as African Union Ambassador to the United States by the African Union. Many an African, like myself, saw the termination of Arikana’s appointment as punitive.

It is extremely helpful and hope-raising to have an American Economist from the U.S. articulating and showing the import of external dynamics on the continuing underdevelopment of Africa. He asked the pre-summit meeting to go into the history of why the Democratic Republic of Congo remains in turmoil and poverty.

Africa is moving nowhere till Biafra is restored
