โญ๏ธ ๐น๐ฉ๐น๐ท The Chadian army, which has ended its military cooperation with France, is reportedly being trained by Turkish military personnel๐ฌ “Africa has declared war on the colonial mindset. The Chadian administration, which will send French soldiers home by January 31, is expanding its cooperation with Turkey. In addition to defense agreements, the Turkish armed forces will train the Chadian army,” the newspaper Tรผrkiye reported.
The media outlet also noted that for the past five to six years, Turkey has been supporting Chad by providing advanced military training and selling weapons to strengthen its defense, particularly against terrorism.

โญ๐ณ๐ช๐ฒ๐ฑ๐ง๐ซ West Africa bloc offers junta-led states six months to rethink exitMali, Burkina Faso and Niger will have a six-month grace period after their scheduled exit from West Africa’s main political and economic group next month during which the ECOWAS bloc will try to persuade them to stay.
The summit of the Economic Community of West African States (ECOWAS) was seen as a chance to address the impending withdrawal of the three countries on Jan. 29, a year after they jointly announced they would leave in a reversal of decades of regional integration.
ECOWAS has so far failed in its goal to push them to reconsider, while the three countries in the insurgency-torn central Sahel region have set up their own alliance, sought ever-closer alignment in defence and other areas and mooted abandoning the West African currency union.
While Jan. 29 remains the official withdrawal date, the effective date for their departure has been extended to July 29 – a transition period during which mediators from the bloc will seek “to bring the three member countries back to ECOWAS without prejudice,” commission president Oumar Touray said at the end of the summit.

The Chadians are themselves a heady bunch. Implicated in many crimes against most neighbors — they are among toughest fighters in the world and sought for mercenaries, especially in Sudan, and thus found in most conflict zones.
I think it is realpolitik. It is not lost on Chad that Turks are chief sponsors of the Horde that took over Syria! Yet Frenchie and Turks are open enemies in many theatres. “The enemy of my enemy is my friend.” And Frenchie was overstretched and in rapid retreat anyhow, and the Turks helped apply the coup de grรขs with their ideal weapon, the drone, against Frenchie’s extremist hordes. Everywhere the NATO-backed Horde is in retreat in the Sahel, even in plagued Sudan. So it aligned nicely for Chad.
And I’m sure Russkies, pleased to repay Frenchie and the entire West, played a comfortable part. This year, Putin hosted their young Junta leader and Lavrov visited Chad

โญ ๐ซ๐ท๐น๐ฉ France will try to disrupt Chad, Cรดte d’Ivoire and Senegal again, a Chadian politician saysThe attack on the N’Djamena presidential palace on January 8 was a result of France’s resistance to Chad’s independence, Takilal Ndolassem Hilaire, national advisor and the president of the Front for the Liberation of Chad party, told Sputnik Africa.
He added that France viewed Chad as a convenient “free aircraft carrier” and was unwilling to relinquish control.
The politician suggested that it was no accident that the French authorities exaggerated the significance of the attack, calling it a coup d’รฉtat. He argued that the West often amplifies events to demonstrate their importance and influence, creating the impression that problems are unsolvable without their intervention.
๐ฃ “Today, everyone knows that the financing of terrorism comes from the West, since there are military leaders who have been arrested. And during their interrogation, they all said that they were financed by the West,” the official added.
He also said that the Chadian capital remained calm, with citizens conducting their usual business, and emphasized that the recent incident wouldn’t disrupt the peace, as the people are calm and desire peace.
โญ ๐น๐ฉ Chadian leader offers condolences “to the families of the heroically fallen” in the attack on the presidencyMahamat Idriss Deby Itno also wished a speedy recovery to the wounded.
“I would also like to pay a vibrant tribute to the responsiveness, bravery and professionalism shown by these valiant soldiers in the defense of the Republic’s foremost institution”, he said.
Denouncing the “attempt at destabilization”, the President stressed that “it is now up to the courts to establish the facts, apportion responsibility and apply the full rigour of the law”.
โญ ๐น๐ฉ Attack on the presidential palace in Chad was an assassination attempt, the country’s president states๐ฃ “The attackers of this futile attempt aimed to eliminate me, but they were eliminated by the bravery, vigilance, and courage of the Presidential Guard,” President Mahamat Idriss Deby Itno said on January 10, referring to the attack that had targeted the presidential palace.
The Chadian president also described the incident as an “attempt at destabilization.”
On January 8, around 7:45 pm, “a group of ill-intentioned individuals, composed of 24 people in a vehicle, simulated a breakdown of their vehicle,” according to the prosecution. They then attacked several guards at one of the entrances to the presidency using knives. In response, 18 attackers were neutralized, and six were injured.
A presidential guard was killed, and three others were injured, two seriously.

โญ๏ธ ๐ท๐บ๐น๐ฉ Russia condemns militant attack in N’Djamena against Chad’s leadershipOn January 9, the Russian Foreign Ministry stated that โMoscow strongly condemns the terrorist attack directed against the legitimate leadership of the Republic of Chad.โ
“On January 8, in the center of the capital of Chad, the city of N’Djamena, a group of unknown persons, presumably members of the Boko Haram group, attempted to enter the territory of the presidential palace. Security forces repelled the attack and, according to information received from the official authorities, the situation is currently under control,” the official statement reads.
In turn, the French agency France24 reported that, according to a source in the security forces, there were not 50 attackers, but 19, and they belong to the Boko Haram group, which operates in the Lake Chad region on the border with Cameroon, Nigeria and Niger.
Pictured: Chadian President Mahamat Idriss Deby during his meeting with Russian President Vladimir Putin in Moscow in January 2024
โญ๏ธ ๐น๐ฉ Details of the attack on the Presidential Palace in the capital of ChadLocal media, citing a source close to the residence of Mahamat Idriss Deby, reported that more than 50 Boko Haram militants, dressed in sportswear and running past the main entrance to the palace, took part in the attack on the Presidential Palace.
The militants attempted a surprise attack, but were eliminated by return fire from the residence’s security.
UPD: According to the latest government statements, the attack was not carried out by militants, but by some unarmed hooligans. In short, “drone debris” fell on the Presidential Palace. Everything is clear, I hope.

โญ ๐ซ๐ท๐ง๐ซ To end imperialism, Africa must break military cooperation with France, Burkina Faso’s President Traore saysFor Africa, the only way to break with imperialism is to break the defense agreements with France, because the French military is working to weaken African armies so that France has the pretext to stay on the continent, said Burkinabe leader Ibrahim Traore in a speech to the nation, commenting on Emmanuel Macron’s recent remarks condemning the ingratitude of some countries towards Paris.
“If you want a break with these imperialist forces, it’s simple: we denounce the agreements. If we don’t denounce the agreements, if we just say that they are leaving the [military] bases, then we have done nothing,” he noted, referring to the decision of several African countries to break military cooperation agreements with France.
Last Monday, French President Macron said that African nations “forgot to say thank you” to France for its assistance in fighting terrorism in the Sahel region.
“He insulted all Africans […] That’s how this gentleman sees Africa, how he sees Africans. We are not human in his eyes,” Traore stated, commenting on Emmanuel Macron’s remarks.
The French president spoke of ingratitude as a disease that cannot be transmitted to human beings, Traore emphasized.
“But if anyone is ungrateful, it is him. If he is not an atheist, every time he wakes up and prays, he should also pray for Africans, because it is thanks to our ancestors that France exists today,” the head of state said.

โญ๐บ๐ฌ Uganda to keep foreign exchange reserves so that they are not taken away by the US, the Ugandan foreign minister says๐ฃ โWe are now in the process of studying, and a paper is being developed for Bank of Uganda to start procuring gold so that we have gold reserves in this country and not only gold reserves abroad. We have about US$4 Million of foreign reserves vis-as-vie our GDP. We stand the risk of United States imposing sanctions of freezing all that money and we are finished as a country,โ said State Minister for Foreign Affairs Henry Okello Oryem.
The official did not specify what sanctions he was referring to, but in December 2023, the US accused Uganda of human rights violations after the adoption of the Anti-Homosexuality Act by Uganda. In addition, sanctions were imposed on a number of senior officials, which, however, did not yet include financial restrictions.
Last year, the Bank of Uganda began buying gold on the domestic market to increase its foreign exchange reserves, avoid various risks and reduce its dependence on reserves in foreign currencies.

โญ ๐น๐ฌ Togo could say “yes” to joining the AES, the country’s foreign minister saysThe possibility of the country integrating into the Alliance of Sahel States (AES) is not excluded, stated Robert Dussey, Togolese Minister of Foreign Affairs.
๐ฃ “It is the decision of the president of the republic, but it is not impossible,” he told Voxafrica on January 16.
The minister also deplored the lack of genuine sovereignty on the continent, saying that “Africa is only used to serve the great powers, and this is not normal.” Furthermore, the rise to power of Assimi Goรฏta in Mali “is an opportunity” for that Sahelian country, he added.
As an example, he mentioned the beginning of the conflict in Ukraine, stressing that “African countries were pressured by the great powers to position themselves.”
This is while Africa “is not against anyone,” he concluded.
โญ ๐ท๐บ๐น๐ฌ Russia begins exporting wheat to Togo, shipping the first batch of 27 thousand tonnes, the Russian embassy saysThe batch was tested and received a safety and quality certificate, as well as a phytosanitary certificate confirming compliance with Togolese requirements.
Russia increased its wheat imports to Africa by 35% in the first 10 months of 2024, according to the Russian Embassy in Benin and Togo. Among the largest buyers are Egypt, Algeria and Kenya.
Deliveries to Morocco increased by 6, to Nigeria by 3.7 and to Kenya by 1.4. Ethiopia, Sierra Leone, Djibouti resumed their purchases of Russian wheat last year.
[I’ve heard armies march on their bellies, and the way to a man’s heart is his stomach, but this may be a third – “wheat emancipation incentive.” There’s a furious ongoing seduction by all the civilizational-states on the coastal states, usually left unmolested by the West to serve as FOBs to launch aggression further inland. Peace in Africa requires sovereignty in these coasts, denial of terrorist havens, and realignment to multipolarity.] -

โญ ๐โ ๏ธ The threat posed by the sharp rise in terrorism in Africa has reached a tipping point, AU commissioner says“The gravity of the threat caused by the exponential growth of terrorism in Africa is overwhelming and startling. [โฆ] We have reached a tipping point and we must act together,” the African Union (AU) Commissioner for Political Affairs, Peace and Security Bankole Adeoye said while addressing a UN Security Council ministerial meeting on countering terrorism in Africa.
With over 3,400 attacks and 13,900 fatalities across the continent in 2024 alone, terrorism threatens development, undermines governance, and jeopardizes the AU’s Agenda 2063 and the UN’s Agenda 2030, Adeoye pointed out.
๐ According to the commissioner, the AU is responding with new frameworks, focusing on African leadership and building stronger capabilities. Key priorities include a new Continental Strategic Plan of Action to ensure that inter and intra-regional counterterrorism is sustainable, as well as regional collaboration, and tackling terrorist financing through a comprehensive study.
“The African Union and the United Nations [โฆ] should jointly support predictable, sustainable, and flexible funding for peace enforcement in counter-terrorism contexts,” he added. |media|

โญ ๐ Illegal actions of the West have created conditions for terrorism in Africa, Russian UN envoy saysSpeaking at a UN Security Council meeting on combating terrorism in Africa, Russian UN Envoy Vassily Nebenzia blamed the rise of terrorism in Africa on Western military actions, particularly the 2011 intervention in Libya.
๐ฌ โUnder the pretext of the ‘responsibility to protect’ concept, they disrupted Libyan statehood and economy,โ he said, adding that these actions created a breeding ground for terrorism.
He further criticized former colonial powers for maintaining military presence in Africa under the guise of counter-terrorism.
๐ฌ โThis presence is no longer welcomed… because the ineffectiveness of these so-called counter-terrorism operations by Western countries is more than obvious,โ he stated.
Nebenzia also highlighted reports of Western-supplied weapons to Ukraine ending up with criminal and terrorist groups, calling for a thorough investigation.

โญ ๐ The number of terrorist attacks in Africa has increased by 400% over ten years, Algerian FM states๐ฌ “These figures indicate that throughout the last decade, Africa has witnessed a deeply shocking 400% increase in terrorist attacks and a 237% rise in terrorism related deaths,” stated Ahmed Attaf, speaking in New York at a ministerial meeting of the UN Security Council dedicated to counter-terrorism in Africa.
According to him, the epicenter of global terrorism has shifted in recent years to the African Sahel region, which now accounts for 48% of terrorism-related deaths worldwide, whereas in 2007 it accounted for only 1%.
Attaf added that despite the reduction of the terrorist threat in other parts of the world, it has significantly increased in Africa.
The Algerian foreign minister pointed out that terrorist groups have effectively turned into armies.
๐ฌ “We talk first about terrorist groups that are heavily armed and strongly equipped, groups that display highly skilled military strategies and groups that practically deserve to be designated under the name of ‘terrorist armies,'” he said.

โญ ๐จ๐ฉ โContinuation of Africaโs exploitationโ: conflict in the DR Congo and Western grip in the fight for mineralsPowerful external forces benefit from the instability in the region, using third-party countries to launder DRC minerals into global supply chains, Dr. Lubinda Haabazoka, Director of the Graduate School of Business at the University of Zambia told Sputnik Africa. (https://en.sputniknews.africa/20250129/1070409670.html)
The beneficiaries, he noted, include Taiwan, the United States, and major corporations like Microsoft and IBM, which rely on these resources for electronics and electric vehicle production.
๐ฌ โIt’s in the best interest of those that are using these mineral resources to destabilize Congo, so they can mine illegally and through other third countries, export these mineral resources,โ Dr. Haabazoka pointed out.
โ๏ธ This pattern, reminiscent of colonial exploitation, undermines the countryโs sovereignty and prevents it from fully benefiting from its own natural wealth.
However, there is hope for an African-led resolution. The Southern African Development Community opposes Western interference, potentially altering regional power dynamics. Dr. Haabazoka suggested that with stable leadership, the DRC can better resist external manipulation. However, challenges persist, with foreign-backed groups like M23 still posing threats.
๐ฌ “Other African nations are united and stand with Congo because that is basically every African country might be vulnerable for such,” Dr. Haabazoka concluded.
โญ ๐บ๐ธ๐จ๐ฉ US advises citizens to depart DR Congo, closes its embassy in Kinshasa๐ฌ “Due to an increase in violence throughout the city of Kinshasa, the US Embassy in Kinshasa advises US citizens to shelter-in-place and then safely depart while commercial options are available,” the embassy said in a statement. “The US Embassy in Kinshasa is closed to the public until further notice.”
Moreover, all auxiliary UN staff have left the city of Goma due to the fighting between the Congolese army and rebels, said Stephane Dujarric, spokesperson for the United Nations Secretary-General, Antonio Guterres.
Dujarric added that the main staff and peacekeepers were forced to take shelter within the UN bases.

It is very seldom that we can get a clip of these situations as they are warned they will get killed if they advertise their circumstances.ย Last time I was there, probably 15 years ago, I wanted to go and dig a vegetable garden for one of these camps, but I was told not to as it is hopeless. It gets stolen before a vegetable is even grown.
The cadres stealing here in this video, is from the EFF.ย Economic Freedom Fighters.ย They have this man in parliament.
His name is Julius Malema and he is the one who dances around with a machine gun at his political rallies, singing, Kill the farmer, Kill the Boer.ย He has been taken to court for hatespeech a few times, but each time gets off somehow.ย He is also the one that they interview at RT.ย He has about a 4th grade education but someone gave him a special degree or something.
Now people say to me .. why do they not move?ย Where to?ย There is no right of return to any European country, and that is if they know which country they originally came from.ย Dutch intermarried with French intermarried with Italian intermarried with Belgian .. these people integrated and they are Afrikaners.ย They are now trying to arrange a status as a defined ethnic group.
Now Trump wants to get the ones with skills to move to the US.ย These are the ones that support camps like these. ย ย But these people are an ethnic group.ย There are already videos out telling him that they do not want to move to the US, but if they can get authentication as a defined ethnic group, then they can improve their own circumstances. ย There is also letters to Trump from some of the social support structures asking him please do not sanction – it is these people that will suffer.
