Irregular migration is a common challenge facing our continent. Research suggests that, for many Africans, migration is driven less by choice than by compulsion. An Africa-wide conference to examine the push and pull factors shaping migration is long overdue. After all, most African migrants remain within the continent. A... show more

Europe is an excellent example of what happens to a first-world society after mass African migration. She claims the world only wants African resources, but not African people. The continent of Africa is huge, and they are getting paid for those resources.

South African business are facing hostilities in fellow African countries in response to the xenophobic/afrophobic attitude towards African migrants by misguided South Africans. This is exactly how the white settler colonialists intended it. To destroy trade and harmony within the continent. Wake up.

Correcting the Myth of the ‘African Migrant’ Crisis Africans are not the globe-trotting migrants the West makes us out to be. Most Africans move within the continent, while Europeans lead intercontinental migration. It’s time we reclaim the African narrative and push back against the stereotypes and dogwhistling that distort our story. By controlling the story, the West normalizes double standards; Europeans are ‘expats,’ Africans are ‘immigrants.’ Reclaiming our narrative means challenging these false labels and celebrating African agency, resilience, and potential.

[WATCH] Comrades the threat of this violence that is being promoted here is that there is a promotion of creating animosity between South Africa and the rest of the continent. South Africa does business with other African countries. We buy oil from the continent and many South African business do business on the continent. Soon those businesses will be removed and we have South Africans working in those countries. We must never allow our Ubuntu to be undermined by vigilantes. These people are damaging the image of the country and the state must act and act decisively.

The migration of Africans into South Africa is breaking the country. "No foreigners have ever developed a country; nationals (citizens) develop their own "country"—Arnold Ekpe (Nigerian businessman). No one will construct Africa for us; the ability to reshape the continent is within our grasp. We cannot construct Africa by dismantling South Africa.

WHY THE CONGO’S LIBERATION MATTERS TO ALL AFRICANS Africa’s revolutionary giants of old clearly understood that the liberation of our continent is inseparable from that of the Congo. As Kwame Nkrumah (1909-72) - Ghana's founding father and the visionary behind the Organisation of African Unity (OAU) - famously stated: ‘The Congo is the heart of Africa, any wound inflicted upon the Congo is a wound to the whole of Africa.’ In this video, African Stream’s Sannario ✨ breaks down why Nkurumah's words were not merely for poetic effect, but expressed a profound political and strategic insight that we must heed today.

Pedro Sánchez's choice—Europe's problem. Legalizing over 500,000 migrants is suicidal for European countries. This decision will allow migrants to travel freely throughout the Schengen Area and settle in any country within the EU. Spain will have the power to offload unwanted migrants to other countries under the new EU Migration Pact. The far left is allowing chaos, crime, and invasion. We need to protect our continent and innocent lives. This is dangerous.

Over 50% of the clothing worn by Africans is designed and produced outside the continent. In a region with over 1.5 billion people, the fashion industry remains dominated by external influence — foreign designs, foreign manufacturing, and foreign profit. While there’s growing pride in African fashion, much of it remains limited to high-end markets, inaccessible to the everyday consumer. The challenge isn’t creativity — Africa is rich with talent. The challenge is scale, affordability, and ownership. Unless the continent builds its own infrastructure to produce for itself — at every level — others will continue to fill the gap. China. Europe. Everyone but us. This is a call not just for more African fashion — but for an African fashion economy. One that designs for Africans, by Africans, and makes style a source of strength, not dependency. More wisdoms from my sister Wandia Gichuru on our YouTube channel.

Kenya's President, William Ruto, warns that the African Union #AU is "not fit for purpose" and cannot steer the "continent into the future". “I can tell you without an iota of doubt that the African Union, as it is today, is not fit to provide the leadership that this continent needs going into the future. Therefore, there's need for the reforms of the African Union”.

KWAME TURE: 'AFRICANS WANT CONTINENTAL UNITY!' As Ghanaian President and Prime Minister Kwame Nkrumah once famously stated, 'Pan-Africanism or perish!' When Pan-Africanists talk about the need to fight for a unified Pan-African state with a single government and universal citizenship for all Africans, we are often told that we are not being realistic. But, let's slow down and think about it. Nowhere in the world is the desire for continent-wide unity greater than on the African continent, as Kwame Ture remarks in this clip. Every country you go to in Africa, you can meet Pan-Africanists. Ture, a founding member of the All-African People's Revolutionary Party, was born in Trinidad and organised in the United States before moving to Africa. The masses understand that, after 500 years of enslavement, kidnapping, colonialism, theft, genocide, terrorism and neo-colonialism, the only way we can build a new future is if Africans across the world come together as one. What do you think of Ture's remarks? Let us know in the comments.

President Mbeki’s observations on xenophobia touch a sensitive but vital nerve in the African conscience. They echo a point I made in my post a day ago: Africa cannot aspire to continental unity while permitting divisions among Africans themselves. Xenophobia is, in many respects, a betrayal of the Pan-African ideal. The challenge before us is not merely to open borders, but to open minds. A continent that seeks a common destiny must learn to embrace its own diversity. Mbeki’s intervention is therefore not only timely; it is a reminder that Africa’s greatest struggle may be less about geography and more about solidarity.

There is narrative amongst non black North Africans that "Blackness in North Africa is always slavery or migration from South of the Sahara" And this yet another form of racism that we black North Africans have to consistently challenge.

The unilateral decision by the Spanish socialist government, to give amnesty to 500 000 irregular migrants, is not about solidarity – it is a political strategy to please his left-wing colleagues and stay in power. But the consequences go far beyond Spain. Prime Minister Sánchez is undermining our common European efforts to strengthen borders and tackle illegal migration.

Net migration is down by 82% from its peak. We are working on a new legal migration system that is firm but fair - that brings the brightest and the best to our country and that rewards contribution. It’s hard work and contribution that makes our country great.
