Ibrahim Traoré: Western Intelligence Operatives Admit Using Bioweapons In Africa The long and well-documented use of Africans and their territories as non-consenting test subjects for weapons trials, medical experiments and bioweapons testing has long been deliberately misrepresented as a "fringe conspiracy theory" on mainstream media platforms that are owned,...

The White Man’s Arrogance Makes Him Stupid – Captain Ibrahim Traoré On July 16, 2026, Burkina Faso President Captain Ibrahim Traoré paid a visit to the city of Ouahigouya in the Yaadga region of his country, and delivered a powerful address to the Burkinabé people, and the people of Africa as a whole. An address which is presently sending shockwaves across Africa’s information space. In this excerpt from the Yaadga address, Traoré comments on why Burkina Faso has been under attack for the last 10 years, and the arrogance of the Western backers behind this terror campaign. This arrogance, Traoré observes, is rooted in colonialism, and has made the enemies of Africa increasingly more desperate and increasingly more predictable, as the continent continues to break its colonial chains.

Ibrahim Traoré Confirms Western Bioweapon Concerns Western intelligence activities in Africa are a threat to the continent's sovereignty and it's time more African leaders called it out. Burkina Faso's President, Captain Ibrahim Traoré, has exposed an attempt by Western intelligence agencies to introduce biological weapons into his country, showing a pattern of foreign interference that can no longer be overlooked. From the illegal 1996 Pfizer drug trial in Kano to concerns over US-funded biological research laboratories in countries such as Nigeria, Sierra Leone, and Uganda, Africa has too often been treated as a testing ground rather than an equal partner. The larger issue is sovereignty. Why do foreign governments continue to involve themselves in African affairs?

TRAORÉ: 'AFRICA WILL BE SELF-SUFFICIENT, SOVEREIGN, INDEPENDENT' Despite what imperialist mouthpieces may claim, Burkina Faso is proving that true independence isn't just possible—it's happening. Under President Ibrahim Traoré (Capitaine Ibrahim TRAORÉ on X), the country is making major strides in healthcare, education, farming and infrastructure, without bowing to Western control. In this speech Traoré gave on 3 March during the Alliance of Sahel States (AES) flag-raising ceremony in Ouagadougou's Koulouba neighbourhood, Traoré reminded Burkinabé people that not everyone supports the revolution but that Burkinabé and Africans, in general, must nevertheless continue to push toward sovereignty and unity. While Burkina Faso and its fellow AES member-states—Mali and Niger—have embarked on a decolonial path toward greater self-determination, Traoré called not just for the Sahel region to unite but for all of Africa to come together. Will other African countries follow in the AES' footsteps? If so, let us know which countries you anticipate will move in this direction soon. Video credits: SIG, RTB, Faso7

"Foreign Embassies Will Fund "Cultural Events" - But Never Science And Research" - Ibrahim Traoré On October 22, 2025, Burkina Faso President Ibrahim Traoré chaired the opening ceremony of the 15th edition of the National Forum for Scientific Research and Technological Innovations (FRSIT) in Ouagadougou. While delivering the opening address, Traoré took a moment to address young people in Burkina Faso, urging them to use social media and internet access to gain knowledge and skills to better their situation, rather than waste the opportunity by fixating solely on entertainment, which he termed a "distraction." Traoré stated that there are foreign interests who would prefer that young people in Burkina Faso remain permanently distracted and over-entertained. He further pointed out that this can even be proven by examining the disparity between foreign funding that is available for "Culture and Entertainment" activities in Burkina Faso, versus that which is available to fund local research and development. Do you have a similar situation in your African country?

Theresa Tam emails reveal unethical medical experiments on Inuit babies Informed consent ignored as Theresa Tam's team subjects vulnerable children to failed drug trials, without oversight or accountability. Recently uncovered government emails reveal that the Public Health Agency of Canada (Health Canada and PHAC), led by Dr. Theresa Tam, subjected Inuit babies to experimental drug trials without their, or their parents' consent. The email correspondence, part of a massive 450,000-page disclosure made possible by Bret Sears, exposes a failed pharmaceutical program that ignored ethical standards, raising serious questions about accountability within Canada's public health system. The experimental drug in question, an RSV monoclonal antibody program, was administered to Inuit infants in Nunavik, an Inuit territory in Quebec, without proper consent or transparency. Despite concerns raised by healthcare workers about the lack of informed consent and the absence of Inuit community involvement in the decision-making process, the program proceeded. The drug, developed by AstraZeneca, was intended to treat respiratory infections, but internal PHAC emails reveal that the trial was unsuccessful. Not only did it fail to prevent hospitalizations from RSV, but the data from the trial also indicated negative effectiveness. An email dated December 16, 2019, uncovered by retired police detective and independent investigator Donald Best, reveals that Dr. Tom Wong, the Director General of Population & Public Health at Indigenous Services Canada, admitted the trial’s disappointing outcomes, noting that the program had "little chance" of preventing RSV-related hospitalizations, even at regional and tertiary hospitals. Worse yet, Wong knew that the experiment had significant ethical concerns among healthcare professionals, with no guarantees of free and informed consent. The exposure of this trial reveals a disturbing pattern of unethical medical experimentation on Indigenous children in Canada. As further detailed by Best, non-consenting Indigenous children have historically been subjected to medical trials dating back to the 1930s, including harmful tuberculosis vaccine experiments that documented fatalities, and deliberate starvation under the guise of studying malnutrition in the 40s and 50s. Best has been scrutinizing the released documents and questions whether the actions of Dr. Tam and other public health officials could lead to criminal negligence charges. If it is proven that they were aware of the risks and continued the program without informed consent, he says this could constitute criminal wrongdoing. Despite the government's recognition of the ethical concerns surrounding the experiment, there has been no accountability for its flawed execution. Even more disturbingly, the failed drug trial did not deter the public health agency from continuing to recommend the same treatment, which they call “expensive.” The blatant disregard for informed consent and the exploitation of vulnerable Indigenous communities for the benefit of Big Pharma is shocking, with public health officials knowingly proceeding with these experiments and putting innocent babies at risk, all without their knowledge or consent. Rebel News presented these serious accusations to Canada’s health agency, but they failed to respond for comment. This breach of ethics and transparency raises critical questions about the integrity of Canada's health authorities. The implications of this report extend beyond the health of Indigenous children—it challenges the very foundations of public health in Canada. How far do these unethical practices extend, and who will ultimately be held accountable for the harm caused? By Tamara Ugolini 🇨🇦

HOW THE WEST FROZE AFRICA IN TIME Africans who were hailed as revolutionaries after independence were really just sensible men with a clear understanding of Africa's needs, but they struck many as ‘ahead of their time’ because our continent was still being held back by neo-colonial exploiters and their puppets. That’s the verdict of geopolitical analyst Shahid Bolsen (X), who says our continent was ‘frozen’ in time, not allowed to progress and develop beyond the colonial era. He argues that the West's relationship with Africa has historically been one of subjugation and extraction, keeping our continent in a state of stagnation through violence, coups and exploitative economic policies. He says, 'For Lumumba or Nkrumah, it was the 1960s, but for the West, it was still the 1860s, the 1760s, the 1660s.' Pan-African leaders such as Burkina Faso’s Thomas Sankara, Ghana’s Kwame Nkrumah and Congo’s Patrice Lumumba were eliminated or removed from power by imperialists because their progressive policies were on course to stop the pillaging of our continent and unleash its massive potential for the benefit of its people. Following in their footsteps, Ibrahim Traoré of Burkina Faso is emerging as a transformative leader spearheading a break from Western dominance. His efforts to regain control of his country’s resources and build alliances beyond the West are seen as acts of dignity and self-determination by many Africans. Alongside Assimi Goïta from Mali and Abdourahmane Tchiani from Niger, Traoré is advocating for African unity and sovereignty, gaining respect and support from anti-imperialists worldwide.

WE AFRICANS MAY NEVER PROSPER FOR AS LONG AS WE LIVE IN CONCENTRATION CAMPS DESIGNED TO PROVIDE CHEAP LABOUR AND A CUSTOMER BASE FOR EUROPEANS The more I think about Pan Africanism, the State of Africa, and the prospects of its people, the more I wonder about some of the colonial programmes that African puppet governments simply continued with post-independence. For example, most of our townships were designed to be concentration camps that would force us into a cheap labour reservoir for Europeans. But not only that, they ensure we were dispossed of land, or could not use our own land that we still had. Even more, these concentration camps became a huge customer base for the same Europeans for whom we worked as they build their malls there. In a manner of speaking, they reaped us off twice: first as cheap labour, and secondly, as reliable customers for their products, right from the supermarket to the farm. It therefore may well be said that Africans and African governments need to rethink the settlement patterns of Africans. Instead of more cities, we need more roads and high speed rail so that Africans can live and work in their communities, instead of the few highways that were built for extractive purposes and run straight from the mines directly to the seaports. Let cottage industries and industrial parks be set up all over including the small towns and villages. This will ensure a total solution to the challenges of homelessness in the cities as there is more land for Africans to live in, build and even engage in small scale farming for their basic needs. One of the biggest tragedies played on us is the idea that "land has value, and for it to have value, that land has to be located next to European settlements". Our land ought to have value deep in our African settlements, and that way we won't even be beholden to banks' housing schemes through 20 or 30 year bonds. As more and more Africans build in their rural villages, let us disabuse ourselves of this notion that "that is not an investment". We do not build our homes primarily to sell, we build homes to live in with our families and leave them as a heritage to our children when we leave this world. African governments need to think beyond the Native Commissioners' ideas and accept African culture instead of always seeking to make everything look European. For example, what is the point of building skyscrapers in Africa as if we always have a shortage of housing land (except that such situations are artificially created through these cities?) The Africa of tomorrow must embrace the traditional African settlements and bring services directly to where Africans live, than drive Africans further into concentration camps, which comes with so many ills, everything from crime to drugs. And last, key point: Africans developing in their own communities means that they will provide labour to one another, be customers for one another's businesses, retain critical skills in the communities, advance community development, and ultimately, ensure the establishment of an African Economy owned by Africans! It is perhaps a tragedy of our time that places such as this in Venda, Bulilima-Mangwe, parts of KZN, etc. are leading the way, but it seems that governments aren't paying enough attention. We still need to decolonise African Governments!

Ibrahim Traoré Appointed New President Of The AES As France continues to buckle under the economic weight of its dwindling influence in Africa, its 3 wealthiest former colonies continue to rise, with new energy deals, safer streets, stronger regional cohesion, equitable diplomatic relations, and rapid economic growth. From December 22 - 23, 2025, the leaders of Mali, Niger and Burkina Faso convened for the second session of the College of Heads of State of the Confederation of Sahel States (AES) – also known as the AES Summit. The events saw the inauguration of the Confederal Investment and Development Bank (BCID-AES) – an $895m-capitalized regional investment bank – the launch of AES Television – a media network built to amplify the stories and aspirations of the AES with a sovereign voice – and the appointment of Burkina Faso leader Captain Ibrahim Traoré as the new President of the Confederation. Traoré takes over from Mali President Assimi Goïta, who passed on the symbolic flag at the close of the Summit, and will lead the Confederation over the coming year. Earlier in the events, Traoré gave a powerful speech warning Africans across the Motherland and diaspora of the challenges still to come, and urging them to unite in the noble task of conquering these challenges, and ridding Africa of the scourge of Western imperialism once and for all. The revolution in the Sahel is bearing results, the continent is watching, and the usual suspects are doing everything in their power to stamp out the example. They are welcome to keep trying, but they might want to consider focusing on their own affairs and figuring out how to better manage what is left of their economies. Because Africa is just getting started.

PRESIDENT TRAORE TELLS STUDENTS TO STUDY SCIENCE From 9-11 May 2025, President Ibrahim Traoré of Burkina Faso visited Moscow, Russia, for the 80th anniversary of the Soviet Union's victory over N*zi Germany. While in Moscow, President Traoré met with Burkinabé and other African students completing their degrees in Russia. For Traoré, this was the perfect opportunity to encourage the students to increase their scientific knowledge and bring skills back to Burkina Faso that will further the country's security and defence. In this video, Traoré explains that Burkina Faso lacks certain chemicals necessary to transform cotton into gunpowder and explosives. It is no secret that the Alliance of Sahel States (AES) confederation, which Burkina Faso belongs to, is seeking to develop a local weapons industry. Traore's fellow AES President Assimi Goïta declared in January, "The process of equipping the armed and security forces will be perfected in 2025 with the establishment of a military industry. We are actively working on the installation of the armaments factory with units for the assembly of individual and collective weapons, the assembly of light tactical vehicles, and the manufacture of ammunition and explosives for civilian use." It is clear that the AES presidents want to become more self-sufficient in their capacity to defend the region. Video Credit: Viory

Getty Images: How The West Silently Profits From Africa’s History Since the birth of what we know today as news media, Africa’s story has been primarily told to the world by non-African voices serving non-African interests. The tragic consequence of this has been a wealth of media assets, photos, videos, audio recordings and documents relevant to Africa’s modern history, chronicling significant African events, but legally owned by Western media, and profited from to this day by Western corporations. In this report for the Spearhead, Barra Hart shines a light on Getty Images, one of the world’s largest digital media platforms, how the US-based company and others like it continue to rake in profits, through their digital media licensing “feature”, from African stories, and what Africa can do about it.

A Russian man is currently going viral across Africa for secretly filming himself approaching and flirting with women in public places around various towns and cities. In the videos, he starts conversations with them on the street or in social settings, and according to the footage successfully persuades many of them to accompany him back to his hotel room. The clips were apparently recorded without the women's knowledge or consent for the purpose of public sharing, which has triggered massive backlash and outrage online. Many people are condemning the behavior as predatory, a serious violation of privacy and consent, and potentially exploitative or even criminal (depending on local laws regarding hidden recording and distribution). There are growing calls for the videos to be removed from platforms, for the account to be investigated or suspended, and for authorities to look into the matter. His exact identity and the specific locations in Africa where these encounters took place remain unconfirmed in most of the viral posts, but the content has ignited heated discussions and anger in several countries.

Toby Rogers, PhD gives a 360° explanation for why autism hasn't been studied correctly, as medicine, research, & regulation have all been captured by Big Pharma money. 🔥"Doctors live inside an epistemic bubble engineered by the pharmaceutical industry to increase its profits" Per Children's Health Defense: "Rogers is a fellow with the Brownstone Institute for Social and Economic Research. He has a doctorate in political economy from the University of Sydney in Australia, and a Master of Public Policy from the University of California, Berkeley." ---------------Partial transcription of clip-------------- "Let me explain how all this works. This is right in my wheelhouse. This is what I study. I follow the money. Autism is a political economy problem. These are all political economy problems. "Thus far, government has failed in response to the autism epidemic because of regulatory capture. Rather than protecting public health, regulators have advanced the interests of the pharmaceutical industry. That's pretty straightforward. Science and medicine have failed in response to the autism epidemic because of epistemic capture. And what I mean by that is that the pharmaceutical industry has captured every step in the knowledge production process in science and medicine. "Big Pharma controls what is studied, how it is researched, and what qualifies as evidence. Now, this capture permeates every level of the system. Medical textbooks and curricula are influenced by financially conflicted academics. Universities and department chairs hold substantial pharmaceutical ties. "Most clinical trials are conducted by for profit contract research organizations. In China and the third world, a large share of scientific journal articles are ghostwritten. The pharmaceutical industry spends over $27 billion annually on drug promotion and continuing medical education. Standards of care are, authored by conflicted physicians. So from the first day of medical school to the final years of practice, doctors live inside an epistemic bubble engineered by the pharmaceutical industry to increase its profits. "Senator Blumenthal and Dr. Scott only pay attention to captured science. Science that's controlled by the pharmaceutical industry. The correct answers, the best science is happening outside of that epistemic bubble. The entire system of knowledge production in science and medicine needs to be overhauled to liberate it from the biases and distortions imposed by the pharmaceutical industry."

Toby Rogers, PhD gives a 360° explanation for why autism hasn't been studied correctly, as medicine, research, & regulation have all been captured by Big Pharma money. 🔥"Doctors live inside an epistemic bubble engineered by the pharmaceutical industry to increase its profits" Per Children's Health Defense: "Rogers is a fellow with the Brownstone Institute for Social and Economic Research. He has a doctorate in political economy from the University of Sydney in Australia, and a Master of Public Policy from the University of California, Berkeley." ---------------Partial transcription of clip-------------- "Let me explain how all this works. This is right in my wheelhouse. This is what I study. I follow the money. Autism is a political economy problem. These are all political economy problems.

Michael Langley Failed, So AFRICOM’s Launched a Psyop Against Africa On 15 July, the U.S. Africa Command (AFRICOM) launched a new psychological operation called Drongo Company. Its stated goal is to influence Africans to act in ways that favour US interests by impersonating Africans and using social media thought leadership to shape African public opinion. This incidentally, is the exact kind of Foreign Information Manipulation & Interference (FIMI) operation that the US government regularly accuses other actors of in Africa and around the world. Whether every accusation is indeed a confession, the one thing we know for certain is that this cannot be good news for Africa. What suspicious anti-Africa messaging have you spotted lately on social media? Drop us a comment. For more like this, follow The Spearhead.

BURKINA FASO DOOMSDAY REPORTS EXPLAINED The mainstream media have presented a dire image of Burkina Faso in recent weeks. Western analysts suggest that the country’s military under President Ibrahim Traoré has failed to repel terrorists groups. Videos of armed militants have been circulated to reinforce the idea of a collapsing state. However, this narrative overlooks key developments and appears suspiciously timed, surfacing shortly after Traoré's public alignment with Russia and criticism of Western powers. The Burkinabe government asserts it is regaining control. Key indicators - such as a sharp drop in inflation and increased agricultural output - support that claim. Construction and infrastructure development further contradict the image of a failed state. The supposed experts cited in panic-mongering reports often lack direct ties to the region and are backed by Western defence-funded think tanks or European Union institutions. This casts doubt on the true motive behind the doomsday reports. As David Hundeyin (David Hundeyin on IG) argues in this video, what’s being sold as news may actually be strategic disinformation designed to manipulate public opinion and justify foreign political agendas in West Africa.
