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.

African Stream CEO Ahmed Kaballo On Niger, Anti-Imperialism And The Brilliance Of Nigerians In this excerpt from a 2025 interview with West Africa Weekly, African Stream CEO and Founder, Ahmed Kaballo, comments on Niger’s revolution, how the Sahelian country’s record economic wins provide irrefutable evidence that anti-imperialism is the only true way forward for Africa, how Africa’s youth deserve better leadership, and how the sore lack of such good leadership has robbed the continent of its best and brightest. Based in Nairobi, Kenya, and active across all major social media platforms, African Stream pushed an unapologetically Pan-Africanist and anti-imperialist perspective into the global information space, awakening minds across the Motherland and its diaspora. It was forced to close down in 2024 after being deplatformed across YouTube, Facebook, TikTok, Instagram and Threads, based on false accusations from the U.S. Department of State.

US-Based Climate NGO “Opposes” Kenya’s New Oil Refinery Project To absolutely no-one’s surprise, US-based “environmental advocacy” NGO, Greenpeace USA, through its African chapter, Greenpeace Africa, has expressed its disapproval of a new oil refinery project in Kenya, which will be built by Dangote Group, and drastically reduce East Africa’s dependency on fuel imports. In this report, The Spearhead examines the true motives behind this latest ideological assault on Africa’s push for energy wealth by one of its many self-proclaimed external saviors. The United States, where Greenpeace is based, remains the 2nd largest environmental polluter, in terms of CO2 emissions, on Earth, while the entire African continent accounts for less than 4% of global greenhouse gas emissions.

“Africa, if you add up the 55 countries of the African Union, that’s about 1.5 billion people—same size as India, same size as China. The big difference is that the imperial powers divided Africa into 55 little countries, not one of which can thrive on its own, whereas India and China, because of the history, remained. So I tell them every single time I have the opportunity that the African Union is the key. As 55 you can’t make it, but as one African continental economy you can make it. So what’s happening now is Africa’s population is continuing to rise—it’s the only place in the world with rapid population growth—and all the others are declining. Everyone else has peaked or is just about to peak or actually beginning a decline. Africa’s population today is 1.5 billion. By 2050 it’ll be 2.5 billion. That’s a lot, adding a billion people in the next quarter century. If you go even farther and just try to extrapolate based on current trends, Africa’s population reaches about 3.5 billion. According to the UN’s most recent forecast, 3.7 billion by the end of the 21st century. And Africa goes from being 9% of the world population to being more than 30% of the world population. It’s going to be a completely different world. What do I say to African leaders every time? Be Africa-wide. Second, get on quickly with mass education, because that is the key to economic development. Third, look at what China did—follow that model.” —Jeffrey D. Sachs, American economist.✅

Who Is REALLY Keeping Africa’s Sit-Tight 'Leaders' In Power? Paul Biya, Omar Bongo, Félix Houphouët-Boigny, Mobutu Sese Seko, Teodoro Obiang, Gnassingbé Eyadéma, Yoweri Museveni, José Eduardo dos Santos, Denis Sassou, Nguesso, Idris Déby, Mobutu Sese Seko… These are Africa’s sit-tight leaders, who have ruled or continue to rule the continent with an iron fist, on behalf of a colonial menace that never really went away. The West, particularly the US, the UK and France, has historically backed these sit-tight African leaders under the pretence of “upholding democracy”, while demonizing, attacking and often murdering African leaders who refuse to bow to its interests. This pattern continues today with the West’s continued endorsement of the “democracies” in Cameroon, Uganda and Kenya, as it condemns the “juntas” in Niger, Mali and Burkina Faso. So the next time you hear the words “democracy” and “Africa” in the same sentence from the lips of the West, ask yourself… who truly benefits from Africa’s current “democracies”?

Examples Of African Unity In Times Of Crisis From offering each other safe haven in times of persecution to jointly advancing the ideals of freedom and independence, African leaders were once united in a continental quest for advancement. The early post-independence era was a time when the pain of one nation echoed across the continent, when borders didn’t stop empathy, and when injustice to one African was seen as injustice to all. In 1961, after the brutal assassination of Patrice Lumumba, Africans from Cairo to Cape rose in collective outrage. Egypt’s Gamal Abdel Nasser gave refuge to Lumumba’s family and declared three days of national mourning. The same hand was extended to Ghana’s Kwame Nkrumah when he was ousted in a CIA-orchestrated coup in 1966, as recollected in this video by his grandson. This is the kind of unity many believe no longer exists in today’s Africa. At a time when genocidal foreign-backed militias in Sudan, DR Congo and the Sahel region threaten Africa’s long-term stability, the courage to raise a collective voice among African leaders seems to have faded. This should worry every citizen of the continent because in moments like these, silence on the part of Africa’s leadership is not neutrality - it is complicity.

Most global executives think about Africa 1% of the time. Meg Whitman, former CEO of Hewlett-Packard & eBay, was one of them — until she became US Ambassador to Kenya and saw it up close. "When I was CEO of HP and eBay, I thought about Africa 1% of the time," she admitted at the Milken Institute's Global Conference earlier this month. But she left the continent a convert. "In 2050, one in four people on Earth are going to live on the African continent. One in three of the world's working-age people are going to live on the African continent. And that's just in 25 short years." Her message to global executives still on the sidelines: "You can't show up in 2045 hoping you're going to be a player on the continent in 2050." That's true — and Africa's demographic transition is real whether the outside world appreciates it or not. How the global C-suite sees Africa matters. But what matters even more is how Africa sees itself. — Afridigest Intelligence — real intelligence & advisory to win in Africa's growth markets: | Follow Afridigest on LinkedIn & Instagram

WATCH | After the recent rise in anti-immigrant protests and xenophobia in South Africa, the Nigerian government organised repatriation flights for citizens returning to Nigeria. Amid the broader fallout, it is easy to overlook those who have fallen through the cracks of South Africa’s Home Affairs system, with no options left. One such case was encountered by Zakiyya while interviewing Nigerians at the Nigerian High Commission ahead of the first repatriation flight on 11 June 2026. Fola has spent his entire life in South Africa but is now being forced to leave because, he says, Home Affairs failed him. This is his story. Produced and presented by: Zakiyya

THE WEST FEARS AFRICA’S FUEL LIBERATION For over a century, Africa has been trapped in a colonial "extraction loop": exporting raw crude for pennies and buying back refined fuel from the West at a massive premium. But the era of dependence could be coming to an end. Following Nigeria’s shift into a net exporter of refined fuel, driven by the success of the Dangote Refinery, Africa’s richest man, Aliko Dangote, has unveiled plans to replicate his success in Nigeria by building a 650,000-barrel-per-day mega-refinery in East Africa — a move that could signal the export of a model aimed at breaking dependence on imported fuel. The cost of Africa’s fuel dependency is staggering. For example, while Angola holds nearly 8 billion barrels of oil, it still spent $854 million on fuel imports at the end of 2025 alone. This “trap” drains foreign reserves while enriching overseas refineries. However, in Nigeria, the Dangote Refinery is beginning to disrupt this cycle, processing around 565,000 barrels per day as of March 2026 and supplying the vast majority of the domestic market. As a result, the chronic fuel queues that once defined daily life in Africa’s second-largest economy have largely disappeared. But Africans refining for Africans is a nightmare for European oil giants. Consequently, the World Bank - where the US is the largest shareholder - has launched a counter-offensive. In April 2026, the Bank advised Nigeria to resume fuel imports, claiming they are "cheaper." Critics suggest that this "advice" is an attempt to force Nigeria to reopen import licenses for Western giants whose market share has evaporated. The West only advocates for "competition" when it means African industries competing against subsidised European giants. By refining at home, Africa saves billions in foreign exchange and creates thousands of local jobs. True sovereignty is not found in World Bank loans with colonial conditions. It is found in the power to fuel your own future.

Elon Musk’s Father Denies Apartheid in South Africa Errol Musk, father of South African-born American tech billionaire Elon Musk, claims apartheid never happened in South Africa. The 79-year-old business man, whose less-than-admirable character and familial ties to pro-apartheid and neo-Nazi movements within South Africa are a matter of public knowledge, said this in a November interview on CNN. Musk’s statements echo a long tradition of denial of the historical atrocities committed against Africans by those who have benefited the most from these atrocities. The Spearhead cannot speak to Mr. Musk’s grip on basic reality, but the historical fact remains that apartheid was a very real and very dark chapter in Africa’s modern history, marked by racial segregation, systemic violence, brutal atrocities like the Sharpeville massacre, and the active support of the regime that perpetrated all these atrocities by Western nations. With Mr. Musk’s son, Elon, recently amplifying equally false and historically backward claims of a “white genocide” in South Africa in support of U.S. President Donald Trump’s racist policies, it seems the apple has not fallen far from the tree.

SOUTH AFRICA 🇿🇦 ARE BUILT ON (DEI) DIVERSITY EQUITY INCLUSION‼️ This is even worse than covid. If you are a white South African, you are captured in an open-air prison, and you can’t escape it, doesn’t matter your profession or how qualified you are. We constantly have to apologize because we are white. The whole South Africa is built on racial resentment "new racism." South Africa is the worst racial separation country in the world‼️and political revenge by the ANC, (being governed by a real criminal president Cyril Ramaphosa and the EFF being let by a killer ‼️Julius Malema), against Afrikaner farmers and white people. At political rallies, they incite their followers to sing "Kill a Boer, Kill a farmer" ‼️ WE HAVE TO STOP THE ANC REGIME ‼️

If you are a white South African, you are captured in an open-air prison, and you can’t escape it, doesn’t matter your profession or how qualified you are. We constantly have to apologize because we are white. The whole South Africa is built on racial resentment "new racism." South Africa is the worst racial separation country in the world‼️and political revenge by the ANC, (being governed by a real criminal president Cyril Ramaphosa and the EFF being let by a killer ‼️Julius Malema), against Afrikaner farmers and white people. At political rallies, they incite their followers to sing "Kill a Boer, Kill a farmer" ‼️ WE HAVE TO STOP THE ANC REGIME ‼️

EFF Spokesperson: South Africa’s Latest Anti-Immigration Wave Is Externally Funded, Not Organic In recent months, South Africa has witnessed a tragically familiar resurgence of anti-immigrant viol*nce, fueled by the oldest trick in the colonial book: “divide and conquer”. At a time when predatory Western corporations are kicking against the country’s equality laws – aimed at ensuring its African majority actually benefits from its economy – and when the US government is actively supporting separatist groups in the country led by white supr*macists, the timing of this resurgence could not be more telling. Under the false pretext of “protecting” their country from “crim*nals”, a noisy minority of historically-illiterate South Africans has flooded the streets, hunting down and att*cking Africans from other nations, blocking their children at the gates of schools, and calling for them to return to their countries. The African Union and human rights groups have strongly condemned these violations. Ghana and Nigeria have since summoned their South African envoys over them. And through it all, the neocolonial forces that are actually responsible for the economic state of Africa’s longest and most directly colonized nations continue to enjoy their eternal free pass. In this June 8, 2026, interview, Sinawo Thambo, South African Member of Parliament and National Spokesperson for the Economic Freedom Fighters (EFF) party, comments on the forces behind this malicious movement, and where the necessary funding may be coming from.

It's been a long time, but I'm back with an interesting piece here. Silver is the new meta for what's about to come. From EVs and solar panels to AI data centers, industrial demand for silver continues to grow. Yet gaining exposure has traditionally meant dealing with physical storage, premiums, or centralized intermediaries. That's where $SILV by Dominion comes in. The first tokenized silver on Solana, Backed 1:1 by physical silver, built for DeFi composability, allowing holders to potentially use silver in collateral markets, liquidity pools, and yield strategies. The bridge between real world commodities and on chain utility is here. Join the Alpha Vault whitelist:

IMF & WORLD BANK HAVE NOT HELPED AFRICA How can we trust institutions established during colonial times by the very forces that colonised us? This is the question posed by Fadhel Kaboub (Fadhel Kaboub فاضل قابوب on X), an associate professor of economics at Ohio's Denison University, who critiques global financial institutions like the International Monetary Fund and the World Bank. Despite their inclusive names, these institutions act as neo-colonial tools, deepening poverty and dependency in Africa and the Global South. After decades of so-called ‘aid,’ little progress has been made in Africa, while Western countries advance by exploiting its resources. For example, the foreign-backed proxy war over natural resources in the Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC) has lasted over 30 years. Instead of addressing exploitation, the World Bank supports projects like the Inga Dam, which critics say facilitate further resource extraction under the guise of aid. Western powers, led by the US and supported by Europe and the G7, control these institutions. They back initiatives like the Lobito Corridor, a 1,300-kilometre strip of land featuring a railway that snakes through Zambia, the DRC and Angola to ship Africa’s resources across the Atlantic Ocean. The World Bank also supported apartheid South Africa, a history it prefers to forget. Given that Africa pays out more in debt and resource extraction than it receives in aid, is it not time for the rest of the continent to reject these colonial-era models and pursue African-led development, like our siblings in the Sahel?

AI doesn’t scale on mega-models — it scales on distilled skills at the edge. From Davos, Qualcomm's Nakul Duggal breaks down the real physics of edge AI: smaller, purpose-built models, mixed precision, and ruthless focus on power + cost efficiency. The biggest constraint is that if AI runs in robotics, ADAS, or edge automation, it has to be efficient. Watch the full conversation to see why edge AI outcomes depend on efficiency by design:
