They say AFRICOM (U.S. Africa Command) is about “stability,” “partnership,” and “security.”
But let’s call it what it really is: a foreign military footprint on African soil.
1. AFRICOM was launched in 2007, promising to “support African solutions to African problems.”
2. Today, it operates in at least 34 African countries — with bases, drone hubs, and intelligence outposts across the continent.
3. The goal? Access to Africa’s oil, gold, cobalt, uranium, rare earths, trade routes, data, and influence.
4. Since AFRICOM’s arrival, terror attacks in Africa have risen by over 1,000%.
5. The Sahel is burning, Somalia is bleeding, Mali and Burkina Faso are spiraling.
6. The U.S. response: more drone strikes, more weapons, more training missions.
7. And when African nations resist, they are sanctioned, isolated, and labeled as “juntas.”
Ask yourself:
Why are there zero African military bases in the U.S.?
Why don’t African nations run “commands” in Europe?
Because it would never be allowed. So why do we allow it here?
The truth:
AFRICOM is not a partnership. It is an occupation.
It creates military dependence.
It spies on us.
It drags Africa into wars we did not choose.
And most Africans don’t even know AFRICOM exists — because it’s kept out of our schools and media.
The way forward:
1. Say no to foreign bases.
2. Say no to proxy wars.
3. Say no to being pawns in someone else’s chess game.
4. Build AFRICANCOM — a Pan-African defense alliance, by us, for us.
You cannot be free if someone else controls your guns.
You cannot be sovereign with foreign troops on your soil.
AFRICOM is not security. It is submission.
And Africa has bowed long enough.
