THE SAHEL REVOLUTION: REAL DECOLONISATION! People throw about the term 'decolonisation' left, right and centre. University campuses say they’re decolonising curriculums, and corporations - the workplace. But true decolonisation is a question of land, sovereignty and self-determination. Today, three countries in Africa - Burkina Faso, Mali, and Niger -...

True decolonization isn’t just about words, it’s about reclaiming land, resources, and self-determination. Burkina Faso, Mali, and Niger are leading the charge, setting a powerful example for all African nations. We must support their sovereignty and defend their right to decide their own future!

Imagine what the Caribbean could be if we did this!! No more illegal overfishing in our seas! We would be able to sell our own things instead of being forced to become importer countries to support the US-based currency

My suggestion is to build strong institutions/systems. For now the Sahel regions you mentioned are currently being built around the military leaders. What happens if the military leader is successfully assassinated? Everything collapses.

Seems good in theory, but reality check: these are military juntas exploiting anti-Western sentiment to maintain their grip on power. They're fooling populations with some of the world's lowest literacy rates.They haven't truly decolonized their countries

Controversial opinion; I don’t like the new Mali/Niger/Burkina Faso “federation”

ALLIANCE OF SAHEL STATES: A MODEL FOR AFRICA? The Alliance of Sahel States’ revolutionary posture and its transformative impact on Burkina Faso, Mali and Niger has captured the imaginations of Pan-Africanists across the continent. But it’s also clear that the anti-neo-colonial project needs defending, being at risk from the very forces it rejects. To highlight the issue - and take stock of the AES’s achievements so far - a special three-day conference is being held in Niamey, titled “In Solidarity with the Peoples of the Sahel.”

REACTION: U.S. CONGRESSMAN CALLS TO INVADE NIGER Africans everywhere have a responsibility to defend Niger at this moment. Why so? Well, Niger is the first African country to expel US Africa Command (AFRICOM) and to forge a sovereign path with two neighbours, Burkina Faso and Mali. The three countries recently ousted Western-aligned leaders and booted the French military. They also make up the Alliance of Sahel States (AES) confederation. This new anti-imperialist bloc shares defence, economic and foreign policies, and has agreed to issue a joint passport. In this clip from a recent episode of ‘This Week in Africa,’ African Stream’s livestream collaboration with @authentic_african, Inemesit Richardson says Africans around the world must fight to defend the AES, as they have placed their hopes in the decolonial revolutionary process underway in Africa’s Sahel, an arid region south of the Sahara Desert. But, Western powers are not happy about this revolutionary turn of events in Africa. For example, in May, just a few months after Niger tore up a military cooperation agreement with the United States and a few weeks before the US agreed to leave Niger by 15 September, Republican US Congressmember Matt Gaetz called for the US to invade the country. While nothing of the like unfolded, it does not mean that US regime-change tactics are off the table.

AFRICANS IN SOLIDARITY WITH SAHEL REVOLUTIONS AT NIGER CONFERENCE, PT. 1 During 19-21 November, Pan-Africanists, anti-imperialists, and friends of the Alliance of Sahel States (AES) flocked to Niamey, Niger, for the Conference in Solidarity with the Peoples of the Sahel. The AES is a revolutionary confederation consisting of Burkina Faso, Mali and Niger, West African countries that have made enormous strides toward ending neo-colonialism in recent years since their people-backed military coups d’état. The conference, organised by the West Africa Peoples Organisation, Pan-Africanism Today and Nigerien civil society organisations, marks a turning point for global solidarity with Africa's new self-determining bloc. Delegates representing political and workers’ organisations came from Zambia, Kenya, Ghana, Brazil, Cuba, Venezuela, the US, India, China and other countries. From day one, African Stream was on the ground in Niamey to interview Nigerien locals, those involved in organising the event and foreign delegates.

END AFRICA'S PLUNDER: THE SAHEL TAKES BACK RESOURCES The Alliance of Sahel States (AES) is leading the transformation of Africa by reclaiming its natural resources as part of a decolonial effort. Burkina Faso and Mali have long relied on gold mining as the backbone of their economies. In Niger, uranium mining has driven the economy. However, since three people-backed anti-imperialist coups swept Burkina Faso, Mali and Niger in recent years, putting an end to neo-colonial rule, the countries have fought multinational corporations for greater control over their mineral resources and a more just share of the profits generated.

JNIM continues to ramp up its attacks across the Sahel. On August 19, dozens of Burkinabè soldiers and VDP fighters were killed in a major attack in Burkina Faso. Just 48 hours ago JNIM fighters had clashed with rival IS Sahel militants, killing a senior IS commander. Now the group is simultaneously expanding its attacks across Burkina Faso and Mali while pushing into northern Benin and Niger. JNIM is the most heavily armed and well resourced militant force in the West African Sahel. It will take a regional effort to blunt their momentum.

'SAHEL REBIRTH A REVOLUTIONARY PROCESS' - FRED M'MEMBE The military takeovers in Africa’s Sahel region are not just coups d’état but revolutionary processes that aim to transform the arid area south of the Sahara Desert. That's according to Fred M'membe (Fred M'membe on X), president of the Socialist Party of Zambia (Socialist Party Zambia on X). He made these remarks in Niamey, Niger, at the 'Conference in Solidarity with the Peoples of the Sahel.’ M'membe argued that many of Africa's so-called elections are, in reality, sham processes devoid of a meaningful agenda other than the acquisition of power by bribing voters. He showered praise on the Sahel’s trio of Burkina Faso, Mali and Niger for their people-driven overthrow of neocolonialism. For instance, following the overthrow of Nigerien President Mohamed Bazoum on 26 July 2023, thousands of people took to the streets to demand the exit of French troops and diplomatic personnel, even besieging French installations. Meanwhile, South Africa's 29 May elections resulted in a unity government that merged the African National Congress (ANC) with the Democratic Alliance (DA), a party representing the interests of apartheid-era ‘old money.' Over in the Sahel, on 6 July, Burkina Faso, Mali and Niger established the Alliance of Sahel States (AES) confederation, an anti-imperialist bloc sharing economic, defence and foreign policies, with an eye on creating a federation and eventually uniting Africa. Do you agree with M'membe's assessment? Video credit: Pan African Television (Pan African TV on X)

'ALLIANCE OF SAHEL STATES IS A BEACON OF HOPE' The historic Conference in Solidarity with the Peoples of the Sahel took place 19-21 November in Niamey, the capital of Niger. Hundreds of participants gathered at the Mahatma Gandhi International Conference Centre from popular movements and organisations across Africa, Asia, Latin America and the United States to express solidarity with the people of the Sahel, an arid region south of the Sahara Desert. In a powerful speech during the event, Jonis Ghedi Alasow, the executive director of Pan-Africanism Today, coordinator of its secretariat and one of the conference organisers, described the Alliance of Sahel States (AES) as a beacon of hope for states that were once under France's oppressive rule. However, even after the end of formal colonialism, most French-speaking African countries were forced to use the France-controlled CFA franc currency. Between 2021 and 2023, Burkina Faso, Mali and Niger—with the support of their populations—expelled Western-aligned governments through coups d’état and demanded the withdrawal of French troops from their territories. These countries faced isolation from their Western-aligned neighbours, particularly the Economic Community of West African States (ECOWAS), which imposed sanctions in response. To further defend their territories against the scourge of terrorism that Western military occupations had not stopped, Burkina Faso, Mali and Niger united to form the AES confederation, an anti-imperialist bloc that shares defence, economic and foreign policies. It plans to move toward becoming a federation, with the goal of continental unification. The conference symbolised hope in the ongoing struggle against neocolonialism in Africa’s Sahel region and throughout Africa, igniting the spirit of revolution among African peoples.

DEFENDING THE AES: ALL PAN-AFRICANISTS' PRIORITY Nothing is more important than defending and protecting the Alliance of Sahel States (AES). That is the concluding message from African Stream journalist Inem Richardson as 2024 comes to a close. We are hopeful and excited about the positive developments of Africa's newly formed anti-imperialist confederation in 2025. As a recap, Burkina Faso, Mali and Niger announced that they would leave the Economic Community of West African States (ECOWAS) on 28 January of this year. By 6 July, they formed the Confederation of the Alliance of Sahel States or the AES Confederation. This bloc promises a shared foreign policy, a shared defence, the free circulation of goods and people, and the eventual creation of a federal government to unify the three states. It was also the year that Niger expelled US military forces, shutting down US Africa Command (AFRICOM)'s biggest drone base, and revoked French company Orano’s uranium mining licence, taking over Orano's affiliate Somair. Burkina Faso nationalised two gold mines at the centre of a legal dispute involving British mining company Endeavour Mining. The country's President Ibrahim Traoré has expressed interest in revoking more mining permits while increasing local control over that sector. Mali has nationalised a gold mine formerly controlled by South Africa-based AngloGold Ashanti and Canada’s Iamgold. Authorities arrested employees of Canadian mining company Barrick Gold for owing $160 million in back taxes. As Mali, Burkina Faso and Niger reclaim their natural resources, the confederation of three countries are also taking concrete steps toward industrialisation, opening new factories, refineries and plants.

This was back in 2024. But after these revelations, no one asked what became of those secret French bases that, allegedly have been engineered to undermine Burkina Faso and possibly the other Sahel States who recently showed France the door. Well, the truth is, the bases are reportedly still there and activities to sabotage the only free countries in Africa has not stopped for one day. Now, what manner of Africans would allow for something like this to happen on their soil against brother nations that have found freedom at last. The purge for Africa’s freedom must start from within and with the Sahel example, the journey has begun. We will be free at last 💪

Breaking 🚨 - The AES officially withdraws from ECOWAS. Burkina Faso 🇧🇫, Mali 🇲🇱 and Niger 🇳🇪 in a joint statement have officially announced their withdrawal from this useless, corrupt and hijacked organization called Ecowas - Cedeao. Here is what @Colonel_Maiga is reading: “Eager to achieve integration between the States of the sub-region and driven by the motives of fraternity, solidarity, mutual aid, peace and development, Their Excellencies General Aboubacar Sangoulé Lamizana, General Moussa Traoré and Lieutenant -Colonel Seyni Kountché, respectively Heads of State of Upper Volta (current Burkina Faso), Mali and Niger, created with twelve (12) of their peers, on May 28, 1975, in Lagos, the Economic Community of West African States (ECOWAS). After 49 years of existence, the valiant people of Burkina, Mali and Niger note with great regret, bitterness and great disappointment that their Organization has moved away from the ideals of its founding fathers and from Pan-Africanism. Furthermore, ECOWAS, under the influence of foreign powers, betraying its founding principles, has become a threat to its member states and its populations whose happiness it is supposed to ensure. Indeed, the organization has not provided assistance to our States in the context of our existential fight against terrorism and insecurity; worse, when these States decided to take their destiny into their own hands, it adopted an irrational and unacceptable posture by imposing illegal, illegitimate, inhumane and irresponsible sanctions in violation of its own texts; all things which have further weakened populations already bruised by years of violence imposed by instrumentalized and remote-controlled terrorist hordes. Faced with this continuing situation, Their Excellencies, Captain Ibrahim Traoré, Colonel Assimi Goïta and Brigadier General Abdourahamane Tiani, respectively Heads of State of Burkina Faso, the Republic of Mali and the Republic of Niger, taking all their responsibilities in the face of history and responding to the expectations, concerns and aspirations of their populations, decide in complete sovereignty on the immediate withdrawal of Burkina Faso, Mali and Niger from the Economic Community of West African States. Done in Ouagadougou, Bamako and Niamey, January 28th, 2024.” Now, this withdrawal has so many implications given we have our foreign nationals within ECOWAS and they also do have theirs in our three states. This will mean that the AES must quickly form the confederation with its single currency and a passport common to our three countries since we will no longer be able to use the ECOWAS passport. If you see that this joint declaration has been made, it means that our common currency might even be ready already. ECOWAS is for economic integration even if they aspire to be a federal political entity in the long run. But it is clear that they are now corrupt and working against Africa. As I’m writing this, Bola Ahmed Tinubu, Alassane Ouattara and the Algerian army chief of staff are all in Paris to see how to destabilize the AES. So what is the point of remaining in such a dead organization which has been hijacked by the imperialists? This withdrawal was predictable and long awaited. Man, this is the biggest news we have been looking and waiting for! This is going to be good. What a joy! What a happy day! Oh how I’m bursting with joy and happiness! Now, it’s time to move on with our confederation! Let’s go to work brave Général d'Armée Assimi GOITA Capitaine Ibrahim TRAORÉ, General Tiani, Choguel Kokalla Maiga Appollinaire Joachim Kyelem de Tambela @Colonel_Maiga Amb. Abdoulaye Diop. Be strong and courageous! We stand by you! Long live the Alliance of Sahel States (AES)! One love ❤️!

GADDAFI SPOKESMAN DEFENDS TRAORE As the West increasingly feels threatened by the revolutionary process underway in the Sahel, Africans worldwide have come out in firm defence of the motherland. Adding to the mix of voices in support of Burkina Faso’s revolution is the assassinated Libyan leader Muammar Gaddafi’s (1942-2011) spokesperson, Moussa Ibrahim. If there is someone as well versed on the West’s schemes against Africa, it would be Ibrahim, as he witnessed NATO dismantle Africa’s once-most prosperous country, fracturing it and turning the North African country into an open-air slave market, far from the bastion of African progress it represented under Gaddafi. US Africa Command (AFRICOM) General Michael Langley accusing Burkina Faso President Ibrahim Traoré of using gold his government reclaimed from foreign companies to protect his ‘junta regime’ is the same old play to manufacture consent for an invasion, Ibrahim argues. Burkina Faso, Mali and Niger formed the Alliance of Sahel States on 6 July 2024 after successfully ousting Western-aligned leaders following people-backed coups d'état. Since then, they have cooperated on defence, economics, and foreign policy, and launched an AES passport. They are also working on creating a sovereign currency. The goal is to form a federal state encompassing their territories, with the dream of eventually uniting the African continent under one people-oriented governance. Ibrahim listed the revolutionary leaders Africa has lost to imperial machinations, including the assassinated Democratic Republic of the Congo Prime Minister Patrice Lumumba (1925-61) and ousted Ghanaian leader Kwame Nkrumah (1909-72). Africans must unite and stand together in defence of Burkina Faso if we are to successfully repel the imperialist onslaught against Burkina Faso, no less with a Black face leading the charge, a sad parallel with US President Barack Obama’s ouster of Gaddafi.
