When you think offshore talent, you probably think of the Philippines or India. But here’s the twist, Nigeria is rewriting the playbook, and it’s time to pay attention. Nigeria is Africa’s largest economy. It has a workforce that’s young, ambitious, and ready to deliver. Every year, over 600,000 native-English-speaking graduates join the talent pool. These aren’t just grads, they’re problem-solvers, engineers, marketers, and more. The human capital there is insane, ready to hit the ground running and work seamlessly with global teams. For example, the tech scene in Nigeria is exploding. Last year, Nigerian startups raised over $1.2 billion in funding. That kind of momentum doesn’t happen without serious talent. Developers, product managers, digital marketers, and designers, are all building the future. And they’re doing it at a world-class level. Here’s what makes this exciting: Nigeria is still the world’s best-kept secret for offshore talent. But it doesn’t need to stay that way. If you’re ready to scale your team with exceptional talent, let’s make it happen. @Talent_hackers_ does the heavy lifting, so you don’t have to. We’ll connect you with the best, fast. The world is catching on. The question is, will you be ahead of the curve?

RUTO’S CALL TO MACRON ENDS ODINGA’S AU CANDIDACY: In his infinite stupidity, outgoing Kenya President William Samoei Ruto, PhD said that he had spoken to France President Emmanuel Macron over the conflict in Eastern DRC. France viewed as funding the never-ending conflicts in their former colonies which have seen calls to shut down foreign bases and even depart from the regional currency CFA. Kenya had also sent its troops to DRC who were then later accused of collaborating with Rwanda-backed M23. Because of that, the Kenyan embassy in Congo was raided by protestors together with other countries from the region. William Ruto is said to be interested in the gold business and is a beneficiary of the crisis in the region. He has previously supported Sudan’s rebel leader Mohammed Dagalo Hemedti and is has been aiding oligarchs from Somalia to “colonize” Kenya through state-capture of strategic sectors. Because of this unsolicited meddling, William Ruto has effectively crushed Raila Odinga’s hopes of clinching the Africa Union chairmanship as the Francophone countries who want nothing to do with their former colonial masters expressed their anger over Ruto’s attempt to impose Macron in African issues.

Like all Africans and beyond, I am deeply saddened by the situation in the Eastern Congo. I want to pass my condolences to South Africa on the death of its soldiers who have died in pursuit of peace in the DRC, and everyone who has been killed by this crisis. Today I took time to understand the issues and the root cause of the Great Lakes crisis, you can’t understand it all in a day. I am not an expert on the Great Lakes, but I found two insightful videos featuring Tanzania’s founding father, Mwalimu Julius Nyerere, and former South African President Thabo Mbeki explaining it. Both leaders were actively involved in efforts to address the Great Lakes issue, with Nyerere engaging as far back as 1992 and earlier. The problem can be traced back to 1885 during the Berlin Conference, where Africa was partitioned among European colonial powers and borders were drawn regardless of ethnic sensitivities. Belgium, the colonial power in the DRC, and Germany, the colonial power in Rwanda, drew borders that divided the Rwandan Kingdom, incorporating parts of it into what is now the DRC. As a result of this partitioning, the Banyarwanda (including the Banyamulenge) ended up living on both sides of the border—in Rwanda and the DRC. Just like the Tswanas in South Africa and Botswana. Despite being Zairean (Congolese) citizens, the Banyarwanda in the DRC were often treated as foreigners by successive Congolese governments, and they faced significant discrimination. The situation worsened after the Tutsi genocide in Rwanda in 1994 which was carried out by the Hutus, when perpetrators of the genocide fled into the DRC, particularly to areas where Congolese Banyarwanda lived. These perpetrators formed a militia called the Democratic Forces for the Liberation of Rwanda (FDLR). The FDLR, which opposes the current Rwandan government, was later incorporated into the Congolese army, causing Rwanda to view their presence in Eastern Congo as a significant security threat. Rwanda objected to the persecution of the Congolese Banyarwanda by the Congolese Government and the FDLR in the DRC. Rwanda’s said its involvement in the DRC is rooted in its efforts to neutralise the FDLR and protect its national security, as well as to address the marginalisation of the Banyarwanda in Eastern Congo. However, this involvement has also sparked significant controversy and accusations of resource exploitation and destabilisation by the DRC. The M23 (March 23 Movement) originated from the National Congress for the Defence of the People (CNDP), a Tutsi-led rebel group in the DRC that operated in the mid-2000s. The CNDP was mainly focused on protecting the rights of Congolese Tutsis (Banyarwanda) who faced discrimination and violence, particularly after the 1994 Rwandan Genocide. Reports by Human Rights Watch in October 2022 revealed that the Congolese military supported the FDLR in their military operations against the M23 rebel group. At the same time, the Congolese government has accused Rwanda of supporting the M23 militarily. Currently the conflict involves the M23 and the Congolese army, with the DRC accusing Rwanda of deploying its troops on Congolese soil. As Nyerere points out in the video, the Zairean government stripped the Banyarwanda in the Congo of their citizenship, rendering them stateless. However, they are Congolese due to the colonial borders. What is clear is that this crisis is not an overnight problem, it has been there for decades, long before both Presidents Paul Kagame and Félix Tshisekedi were in power. What is lacking is leadership from the region and the continent to help both countries resolve this crisis once and for all. It is like a volcano that has been erupting periodically, the crisis is crying out for a modern day Nyerere or Mbeki. It is now unrealistic to expect Presidents Kagame and Tshisekedi to invite each other for coffee, it needs someone with gravitas to invite them. This crisis has no military solution except dialogue.

REACTION: WHO ARE THE TERRORISTS IN DRC? Rwanda’s minister of foreign affairs has argued at the UN Security Council that branding the Kigali-backed M23 rebels fighting in the Democratic Republic of Congo terrorists distracts from the human rights violations being committed by another militia fighting in eastern DRC - the Islamist ADF (Allied Democratic Forces). Olivier Jean Patrick Nduhungirehe portrays the M23 as a protector of marginalised Tutsis in the Congo. However, this narrative is contested by reports showing the M23’s involvement in grave human rights abuses, including forced recruitment, r*pe and mass displacement. Critics suggest the resurgence of the M23 - rather than being a reaction to - exacerbated anti-Tutsi violence in the region. While Rwanda condemns the marginalisation of Tutsis in the DRC, the M23’s economic activities, such as controlling lucrative mining areas, reveal motives beyond so-called ethnic protection. There is also evidence of Rwanda’s involvement in the looting of Congolese resources. Our man William Sakawa gives his take on Nduhungirehe’s speech. Who do you agree with?

CONGOLESE ABANDONED BUT $1 BILLION RAISED IN 24H FOR NOTRE-DAME? It is essential to recognise that the crisis in the Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC) has been ongoing for some time. The M23 rebel group capturing wide swaths of eastern DRC territory this month, pushing about 500,000 Congolese off their land, is just the latest escalation in a foreign-instigated proxy conflict over natural resources that has dragged on for close to 30 years since Western-backed Rwanda and Uganda forces invaded Congo in 1996, destabilising the country. DRC neighbours have since acted as a conduit for Western multinationals, like Apple and Tesla, that rely on the minerals extracted from eastern Congo. In this clip from a 2024 round-table discussion with Pan-Africanist activist and fundraiser Chakabars, he pointed out how the world has ignored the ongoing genocide in the DRC, in which we are all somehow complicit due to the devices we use. Yet, the West rallied to stump up $1 billion within days after Paris’ iconic Notre Dame Cathedral burnt down. Cultural preservation is a wonderful and essential thing, but you’d have thought human life is—or rather, millions of human lives are—a more urgent priority. As always, your input in the comments is appreciated.

Diplomatic Checkmate Against the Kigali Regime. (Full video of Michael Waltz's intervention). Very harsh statements from the United States Ambassador to the UN, Mike Waltz, against the Kigali regime, during the emergency meeting of the United Nations Security Council on the situation in the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC). In his speech, he firmly condemns Rwanda for its direct support to the M23, explicitly states that Rwandan troops (Rwandan Defence Forces, RDF) are deployed alongside the M23 rebels in eastern Congo (notably in Uvira, South Kivu), and describes this as deliberate sabotage of the peace agreements recently signed in Washington. He mentions recent field evidence, including the use of surface-to-air missiles by Rwandan forces and strategic involvement in planning offensives. Waltz states that the United States will use “all tools at its disposal” to hold Rwanda accountable and demands an immediate withdrawal of Rwandan troops from Congolese territory. Some excerpts: “Since its re-emergence in 2021, Rwanda has had strategic control of its proxy armed group M23 as well as the political wing of M23, the Congo River Alliance or AFC, and has deployed M23 and the AFC to achieve Rwanda's geopolitical objectives.” “In eastern DRC, Kigali has been intimately involved in the planning and execution of the war in eastern DRC, providing military and political direction to M23 forces and the AFC.” “For years, the Rwandan Defence Forces have provided materiel, logistical support, and training to M23 as well as participation in combat alongside M23 in DRC with approximately 5,000 to 7,000 soldiers as of early December.” “Not counting possible Rwandan military reinforcements in this most recent advance.” “We have credible reports of increased use of suicide drones.” “Increased use of artillery by M23 and Rwanda” “including strikes in Burundi.” “We will use the tools at our disposal to hold peace saboteurs accountable.” “We call on Rwanda to respect its commitments and to further recognize the government of the Democratic Republic of the Congo's right to defend its territory and its sovereign right to invite Burundian forces onto its territory.” “The fact that UN peacekeepers are besieged by forces supported by a Member State that itself contributes troops to peacekeeping missions is, frankly, a sad hypocrisy...”

🚨🇰🇪 KENYA MOURNS RAILA ODINGA - DEMOCRACY’S DEFIANT ARCHITECT DIES AT 80 Kenya has lost its political north star. Raila Odinga, the former prime minister and lifelong opposition icon who helped drag Kenya from dictatorship to democracy, has died at 80. Crowds have poured into the streets of Nairobi and Kisumu, waving flags and singing liberation songs in honor of the man whose word could stop riots - or start them. Odinga, who served as prime minister from 2008 to 2013, was a key architect of Kenya’s multi-party democracy (1991) and the progressive 2010 constitution that redefined national power. He was loved and feared in equal measure - a populist, a rebel, a dealmaker who never quite reached the presidency but shaped every one that followed. Even his rivals admired his gravity. After losing the 2022 election, he cut a surprise deal with President William Ruto, stabilizing the country and placing his allies in government. Tributes are flooding in from across Africa and beyond - from Narendra Modi to the African Union - hailing him as a champion of freedom and self-determination. For Kenya, it’s the end of an era. For Africa, it’s the passing of a giant who believed democracy wasn’t granted - it was fought for. Source: CNN, Larry Madowo (Nairobi)

SILENCE OF RWANDANS ON CONGO IS A TRAGEDY An unsettling silence envelops Rwanda. Kigali is complicit in the mineral war that’s tearing the neighbouring Democratic Republic of Congo apart. The UN says Kigali has sent up 4,000 troops across the border to assist M23 rebels in their bid to control the region’s most lucrative mines. M23 is guilty of multiple atrocities against the Congolese people. Yet Rwandans - despite their own tragic past - are silent. Is that simply a reflection of Kigali’s tight grip over the media and public discourse? Or, like their president Paul Kagame, are they simply feigning ignorance about what’s happening in eastern DRC? Claude Gatebuke, a survivor of the Rwandan Genocide and human-rights advocate, acknowledges that it’s difficult to voice dissent in what’s widely considered Rwanda’s police state. In this clip, he explains why, all the same, the muted response from Rwandans to what their government is doing to its neighbour in pursuit of profit - is a tragedy.

Congolese Doctors Challenge CS Duale’s Decision Not to Renew Licenses A group of Congolese doctors in Kenya has challenged the decision by Health Cabinet Secretary Aden Duale not to renew their practicing licenses, terming the move discriminatory and unconstitutional. The doctors argue that the decision unfairly targets medical practitioners from the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC), despite the country being a member of the East African Community (EAC). They claim the action treats Congolese professionals as foreigners within the regional bloc, contrary to the principles of regional integration and free movement of labour. According to the doctors, the refusal to renew their licenses violates EAC protocols and Kenya’s constitutional provisions on equality and non-discrimination. They contend that they have been lawfully practicing in Kenya and have met all professional and regulatory requirements. The matter is expected to be determined by the courts, with the doctors seeking orders to compel the renewal of their licenses and halt what they describe as discriminatory administrative actions by the Ministry of Health.

Kenya-Somalia Update: Outgoing Somali President Hassan Sheikh Mohamud arrived today for what Villa Somalia described as 'a one-day working visit.' He was received by Kenyan President William Samoei Ruto, PhD. It cannot be a formal diplomatic 'working visit'. In Kenya, Sunday is a prayer day and President is usually out somewhere in a church. Nonetheless, Mr Ruto welcomed HSM warmly in Kilgoris, Narok County, southwestern Kenya today. HSM actually got a nice treat - he was driven around one of Kenya's most beautiful and lush countryside in safari-style Landcruiser (Ethiopian PM Abiy Ahmed does this frequently when meeting a dear foreign friend). Kenya and Somalia relations erratic and prone to periodic tensions. But today's reception is signal Kenya wants continuity and prefers dealing with HSM as full head of state. HSM must have come for a specific reason. And we won't know for sure what that reason is. Earlier, he did try to come to the Ocean Conference in Mombasa, but somehow did not get invited. Interesting the host of the conference Mining Minister Joho was the one who received HSM at the airport. HSM is keen on Kenya and wants Kenyan 'validation.' He needed the optics of continuity as head of state and validation by a regional power. And that he seems to have got. Clever man.

**Open Letter to Julius Sello Malema: #Urgent Plea for Action in Addressing the DRC Crisis** Dear Julius Sello Malema, I pen these words to you with a heavy heart and a sense of urgency, as a Congolese Refugee deeply affected by the recent tragic events unfolding in the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC). The actions of the South African Military Intervention in the DRC (#SAMIDRC) have brought devastation and suffering to my homeland, claiming innocent lives and causing untold destruction. In the early hours of the morning, the towns of Sake, Kirolirwe, Mushaki, and Bweramana were brutally attacked, resulting in the loss of civilian lives and the destruction of property. The toll of this senseless violence continues to mount, with families torn apart, livelihoods destroyed, and communities in turmoil. Amidst this chaos, the brave defenders of the people, the M23/AFC forces, have stood tall, protecting the population with valor and determination. Their efforts to counter the aggression and safeguard the lives of innocent civilians have been a beacon of hope in the darkness of conflict. As result many armed vehicles belonged to South African Army were destroyed and some evidence are bellow! However, the presence of South African soldiers in the DRC has only intensified the violence and deepened the suffering of the Congolese people. I implore you, as a prominent opposition leader in South Africa, to take a stand against this unjust military intervention and advocate for the withdrawal of South African troops from our beleaguered nation. Julius Sello Malema, your voice carries weight and influence, and your commitment to justice and human rights is widely recognized. I urge you to speak out against the continued military actions in the Eastern DRC, demand accountability from the government, and push for a peaceful resolution to the conflict that respects the lives and dignity of all involved. Please, do not turn a blind eye to the suffering of the Congolese people. Your support and advocacy can help bring an end to the violence and pave the way for a brighter future for our nation and its people. I humbly implore you to take action, to stand in solidarity with the people of the Eastern DRC, and to be a voice for peace and justice in our troubled times. With heartfelt gratitude and hope, Manzi A Concerned Congolese Refugee Secretary Antony Blinken William Samoei Ruto, PhD East African Community Yoweri K Museveni

**Open Letter to Julius Sello Malema: #Urgent Plea for Action in Addressing the DRC Crisis** Dear Julius Sello Malema, I pen these words to you with a heavy heart and a sense of urgency, as a Congolese Refugee deeply affected by the recent tragic events unfolding in the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC). The actions of the South African Military Intervention in the DRC (#SAMIDRC) have brought devastation and suffering to my homeland, claiming innocent lives and causing untold destruction. In the early hours of the morning, the towns of Sake, Kirolirwe, Mushaki, and Bweramana were brutally attacked, resulting in the loss of civilian lives and the destruction of property. The toll of this senseless violence continues to mount, with families torn apart, livelihoods destroyed, and communities in turmoil. Amidst this chaos, the brave defenders of the people, the M23/AFC forces, have stood tall, protecting the population with valor and determination. Their efforts to counter the aggression and safeguard the lives of innocent civilians have been a beacon of hope in the darkness of conflict. As result many armed vehicles belonged to South African Army were destroyed and some evidence are bellow!

📍#DRC🇨🇩 In 2023, after being received repeatedly by EU and U.S. embassies, Congolese Tutsi refugee Nsengiyera John said: "28 years in refugee camps is too much… If you choose to remain silent now, then stay silent when we decide to solve this problem ourselves." His message, delivered in Kinyarwanda, reflected deep frustration with the international community’s silence regarding the persecution of Congolese Tutsis. In the videos below, Nsengiyera John describes the suffering endured by Congolese Tutsi refugees living in camps for nearly three decades. Today, in 2025, the young Nsengiyera John is reportedly on the front lines with #M23, saying he is defending his rights after feeling abandoned by the international community — just as many felt in 1994 during the genocide against the Tutsis in Rwanda. In the DRC, Congolese Tutsis have been lynched, burned, and subjected to horrific violence by individuals claiming to defend the country's territorial integrity against so-called “Tutsi invaders.” At the same time, the Congolese government has mobilized, reorganized, and armed armed groups hostile to Tutsis, who continue to carry out systematic attacks against Congolese Tutsi communities in both rural and urban areas. Meanwhile, those responsible for these atrocities and anti-Tutsi militias are often described as “patriotic resistance fighters” defending their land and communities — according to statements from the President of the DRC, the Supreme Commander of the FARDC.
