🚨Didier Drogba on CAF's INSANE Ruling:
"My brothers and sisters in African football… today I speak with a heavy heart.
In January, we all watched Senegal fight with courage and defeat Morocco in a historic final.
It was a night of passion, sacrifice, and pride for the entire continent.
From Dakar to Abidjan, from Lagos to Nairobi — Africa celebrated its champions. 🌍
But now, months later, a decision taken in a boardroom has changed that story.
The Confederation of African Football Appeal Board overturns the result… and suddenly a victory earned on the pitch is taken away.
This is not just about one trophy.
This is about the credibility, the dignity, and the soul of African football.
Yes, rules must exist. Discipline must exist.
But when decisions arrive long after the final whistle, they create doubt, confusion, and pain.
They make the world question our organisation, our seriousness, our unity.
And we know how quickly critics speak.
They will point to moments like this to belittle the Africa Cup of Nations, to call it chaotic, to reduce its greatness.
But Africa is not small.
Africa has produced giants — players who have conquered Europe and inspired millions.
From Samuel Eto'o to Mohamed Salah, from Sadio Mané to Riyad Mahrez.
Our talent is unquestionable.
Our passion is unmatched.
What we need now is leadership that protects the image of our game.
Leadership that builds trust, transparency, and stability for the next generation.
If justice must be sought, then let it be sought — even before the Court of Arbitration for Sport.
But beyond this case, we must look within ourselves and ask:
What future are we building for African football?
Because our fans live for these moments.
Our players give everything for that badge.
We must not allow uncertainty and politics to steal the joy of victory from our people.
Africa deserves respect.
African football deserves strong foundations.
We are giants…
and giants must stand tall together."
Amazing idea. Burkina Faso Moves to Integrate Traditional Medicine Into Public Health System to restore the cultural identity tied to ancestral healing practices.
As part of the National Health Policy, traditional medicine will be institutionalized through the creation of specialized departments within regional and university hospitals. This reform reflects a dual ambition, to offer more accessible healthcare to underserved populations.
Your thoughts on this ...
Donald Trump & America government to expropriate Elon Musk Space X assets without compensation for the benefit of the state . Something bad is going to happen to the 49 Afrikaner refugees. These are our people, and as Africa, we should offer them asylum to Rwanda ,or Malawi or Burkina Faso before they exiled to El Salvador
But the position taken by the SA government is quite interesting. It includes offering support to the narrative by offering vetting & logistical support to the 67 000 applicants. Did the government also tax clear them out ? Check with the banks that they have paid their owned loans, etc ,
This is weird practice that the government assists the same pple who are peddling and benefiting from well planned and executed global misinformation campaign and use tax money of innocent citizens to support the "fleeing process to Trumpland"
Interesting times ... the destruction of Zimbabwe after land redistribution using inhuman sanctions that led to the dehumanization of ordinary civilians happened in the eyes of our Big Brother South Africa . Economically, South Africa scored out of that, but now we are all set to lose as SADC .
A new mindset and approach is required. I hope our leaders will stop bootlicking these spoilt Extremist Afrikanaar groups or white capitalists who continue to undermine a whole elected President of a Republic. Imagine a whole president chasing a Caucasian Afrikaanar for a phone call,coupled by an um'bedo post call statement on X , undermining a whole Republic President .. God have mercy
TRUMP's Tariff trawl on Africa :A Continent at a Crossroads
Trump’s Tariff Trawl is a geopolitical sledgehammer, rewarding Starlink adopters like Kenya and Mozambique with low tariffs (10-16%) while hammering non-adopters like Lesotho (50%) and South Africa (30%) with economic isolation. Mining access softens blows for resource-rich states like Niger and Zimbabwe, but protectionists like Botswana and Angola pay dearly. Anti-Israel stances—evident in Mali, South Africa, and Angola—invite steep tariffs, aligning trade with U.S. alliances. AGOA’s future favors compliant nations, agriculture battles tariffs and climate, and mining teeters between leverage and loss. Diasporas in high-tax zones, especially Zimbabweans in South Africa, bear heavier burdens—fewer jobs, costlier goods, and strained remittances—while low-tax havens offer stability. Zimbabwe’s cautious gains (18%)—Starlink-driven growth offset by steel woes contrast with Sahel fragility and Southern
Africa’s high-tax pain. Africa stands at a crossroads: align with U.S. priorities for economic lifelines, or resist and face a tariff-fueled reckoning.
