14 African Countries Forced by France to Pay Colonial Tax


Did you know many African countries continue to pay colonial tax to France since their independence till today!

When Sékou Touré of Guinea decided in 1958 to get out of french colonial empire, and opted for the country independence, the french colonial elite in Paris got so furious, and in a historic act of fury the french administration in Guinea destroyed everything in the country which represented what they called the benefits from french colonization.

Three thousand French left the country, taking all their property and destroying anything that which could not be moved: schools, nurseries, public administration buildings were crumbled; cars, books, medicine, research institute instruments, tractors were crushed and sabotaged; horses, cows in the farms were killed, and food in warehouses were burned or poisoned.

The purpose of this outrageous act was to send a clear message to all other colonies that the consequences for rejecting France would be very high.

Slowly fear spread trough the african elite, and none after the Guinea events ever found the courage to follow the example of Sékou Touré, whose slogan was “We prefer freedom in poverty to opulence in slavery.”

Sylvanus Olympio, the first president of the Republic of Togo, a tiny country in west Africa, found a middle ground solution with the French.He didn’t want his country to continue to be a french dominion, therefore he refused to sign the colonisation continuation pact De Gaule proposed, but agree to pay an annual debt to France for the so called benefits Togo got from french colonization.It was the only conditions for the French not to destroy the country before leaving. However, the amount estimated by France was so big that the reimbursement of the so called “colonial debt” was close to 40% of the country budget in 1963.The financial situation of the newly independent Togo was very unstable, so in order to get out the situation, Olympio decided to get out the french colonial money FCFA (the franc for french african colonies), and issue the country own currency.On January 13, 1963, three days after he started printing his country own currency, a squad of illiterate soldiers backed by France killed the first elected president of newly independent Africa. Olympio was killed by an ex French Foreign Legionnaire army sergeant called Etienne Gnassingbe who supposedly received a bounty of $612 from the local French embassy for the hit man job.Olympio’s dream was to build an independent and self-sufficient and self-reliant country. But the French didn’t like the idea.On June 30, 1962, Modiba Keita , the first president of the Republic of Mali, decided to withdraw from the french colonial currency FCFA which was imposed on 12 newly independent African countries. For the Malian president, who was leaning more to a socialist economy, it was clear that colonisation continuation pact with France was a trap, a burden for the country development.On November 19, 1968, like, Olympio, Keita will be the victim of a coup carried out by another ex French Foreign legionnaire, the Lieutenant Moussa Traoré.

In fact during that turbulent period of African fighting to liberate themselves from European colonization, France would repeatedly use many ex Foreign legionnaires to carry out coups against elected presidents:

– On January 1st, 1966, Jean-Bédel Bokassa, an ex french foreign legionnaire, carried a coup against David Dacko, the first President of the Central African Republic.
– On January 3, 1966, Maurice Yaméogo, the first President of the Republic of Upper Volta, now called Burkina Faso, was victim of a coup carried by Aboubacar Sangoulé Lamizana, an ex French legionnaire who fought with french troops in Indonesia and Algeria against these countries independence.
– on 26 October 1972, Mathieu Kérékou who was a security guard to President Hubert Maga, the first President of the Republic of Benin, carried a coup against the president, after he attended French military schools from 1968 to 1970.
In fact, during the last 50 years, a total of 67 coups happened in 26 countries in Africa, 16 of those countries are french ex-colonies, which means 61% of the coups happened in Francophone Africa.

As these numbers demonstrate, France is quite desperate but active to keep a strong hold on his colonies what ever the cost, no matter what.

In March 2008, former French President Jacques Chirac said:

“Without Africa, France will slide down into the rank of a third [world] power”

Chirac’s predecessor François Mitterand already prophesied in 1957 that:

”Without Africa, France will have no history in the 21st century”

At this very moment I’m writing this article, 14 african countries are obliged by France, trough a colonial pact, to put 85% of their foreign reserve into France central bank under French minister of Finance control. Until now, 2014, Togo and about 13 other african countries still have to pay colonial debt to France. African leaders who refuse are killed or victim of coup. Those who obey are supported and rewarded by France with lavish lifestyle while their people endure extreme poverty, and desperation.

It’s such an evil system even denounced by the European Union, but France is not ready to move from that colonial system which puts about 500 billions dollars from Africa to its treasury year in year out.

We often accuse African leaders of corruption and serving western nations interests instead, but there is a clear explanation for that behavior. They behave so because they are afraid the be killed or victim of a coup. They want a powerful nation to back them in case of aggression or trouble. But, contrary to a friendly nation protection, the western protection is often offered in exchange of these leaders renouncing to serve their own people or nations’ interests.

African leaders would work in the interest of their people if they were not constantly stalked and bullied by colonial countries.

In 1958, scared about the consequence of choosing independence from France, Leopold Sédar Senghor declared: “The choice of the Senegalese people is independence; they want it to take place only in friendship with France, not in dispute.”

From then on France accepted only an “independence on paper” for his colonies, but signed binding “Cooperation Accords”, detailing the nature of their relations with France, in particular ties to France colonial currency (the Franc), France educational system, military and commercial preferences.

Below are the 11 main components of the Colonisation continuation pact since 1950s:



#1. Colonial Debt for the benefits of France colonization

The newly “independent” countries should pay for the infrastructure built by France in the country during colonization.

I still have to find out the complete details about the amounts, the evaluation of the colonial benefits and the terms of payment imposed on the african countries, but we are working on that (help us with info).



#2. Automatic confiscation of national reserves

The African countries should deposit their national monetary reserves into France Central bank.

France has been holding the national reserves of fourteen african countries since 1961: Benin, Burkina Faso, Guinea-Bissau, Ivory Coast, Mali, Niger, Senegal, Togo, Cameroon, Central African Republic, Chad, Congo-Brazzaville, Equatorial Guinea and Gabon.

“The monetary policy governing such a diverse aggregation of countries is uncomplicated because it is, in fact, operated by the French Treasury, without reference to the central fiscal authorities of any of the WAEMU or the CEMAC. Under the terms of the agreement which set up these banks and the CFA the Central Bank of each African country is obliged to keep at least 65% of its foreign exchange reserves in an “operations account” held at the French Treasury, as well as another 20% to cover financial liabilities.

The CFA central banks also impose a cap on credit extended to each member country equivalent to 20% of that country’s public revenue in the preceding year. Even though the BEAC and the BCEAO have an overdraft facility with the French Treasury, the drawdowns on those overdraft facilities are subject to the consent of the French Treasury. The final say is that of the French Treasury which has invested the foreign reserves of the African countries in its own name on the Paris Bourse.

In short, more than 80% of the foreign reserves of these African countries are deposited in the “operations accounts” controlled by the French Treasury. The two CFA banks are African in name, but have no monetary policies of their own. The countries themselves do not know, nor are they told, how much of the pool of foreign reserves held by the French Treasury belongs to them as a group or individually.

The earnings of the investment of these funds in the French Treasury pool are supposed to be added to the pool but no accounting is given to either the banks or the countries of the details of any such changes. The limited group of high officials in the French Treasury who have knowledge of the amounts in the “operations accounts”, where these funds are invested; whether there is a profit on these investments; are prohibited from disclosing any of this information to the CFA banks or the central banks of the African states .” Wrote Dr. Gary K. Busch

It’s now estimated that France is holding close to 500 billions African countries money in its treasury, and would do anything to fight anyone who want to shed a light on this dark side of the old empire.

The African countries don’t have access to that money.

France allows them to access only 15% of the money in any given year. If they need more than that, they have to borrow the extra money from their own 65% from the French Treasury at commercial rates.

To make things more tragic, France impose a cap on the amount of money the countries could borrow from the reserve. The cap is fixed at 20% of their public revenue in the preceding year. If the countries need to borrow more than 20% of their own money, France has a veto.

Former French President Jacques Chirac recently spoke about the African nations money in France banks. Here is a video of him speaking about the french exploitation scheme. He is speaking in French, but here is a short excerpt transcript: “We have to be honest, and acknowledge that a big part of the money in our banks come precisely from the exploitation of the African continent.”

#3. Right of first refusal on any raw or natural resource discovered in the country

France has the first right to buy any natural resources found in the land of its ex-colonies. It’s only after France would say, “I’m not interested”, that the African countries are allowed to seek other partners.



#4. Priority to French interests and companies in public procurement and public biding

In the award of government contracts, French companies must be considered first, and only after that these countries could look elsewhere. It doesn’t matter if the african countries can obtain better value for money elsewhere.

As consequence, in many of the french ex-colonies, all the majors economical assets of the countries are in the hand of french expatriates. In Côte d’Ivoire, for example, french companies own and control all the major utilities – water, electricity, telephone, transport, ports and major banks. The same in commerce, construction, and agriculture.

In the end, as I’ve written in a previous article, Africans now Live On A Continent Owned by Europeans!



#5. Exclusive right to supply military equipment and Train the country military officers

Through a sophisticated scheme of scholarships, grants, and “Defense Agreements” attached to the Colonial Pact, the africans should send their senior military officers for training in France or French ran-training facilities.

The situation on the continent now is that France has trained hundreds, even thousands of traitors and nourish them. They are dormant when they are not needed, and activated when needed for a coup or any other purpose!



#6. Right for France to pre-deploy troops and intervene military in the country to defend its interests

Under something called “Defence Agreements” attached to the Colonial Pact, France had the legal right to intervene militarily in the African countries, and also to station troops permanently in bases and military facilities in those
countries, run entirely by the French.

When President Laurent Gbagbo of Côte d’Ivoire tried to end the French exploitation of the country, France organized a coup. During the long process to oust Gbagbo, France tanks, helicopter gunships and Special Forces intervened directly in the conflit, fired on civilians and killed many.

To add insult to injury, France estimated that the French business community had lost several millions of dollars when in the rush to leave Abidjan in 2006 the French Army massacred 65 unarmed civilians and wounded 1,200 others.

After France succeeded the coup, and transferred power to Alassane Outtara, France requested Ouattara government to pay compensation to French business community for the losses during the civil war.

Indeed the Ouattara government paid them twice what they said they had lost in leaving.

French military bases in Africa

#7. Obligation to make French the official language of the country and the language for education

Oui, Monsieur. Vous devez parlez français, la langue de Molière!

A French language and culture dissemination organization has been created called “Francophonie” with several satellites and affiliates organizations supervised by the French Minister of Foreign Affairs.

As demonstrated in this article, if French is the only language you speak, you’d have access to less than 4% of humanity knowledge and ideas. That’s very limiting.



#8. Obligation to use France colonial money FCFA

That’s the real milk cow for France, but it’s such an evil system even denounced by the European Union, but France is not ready to move from that colonial system which puts about 500 billions dollars from Africa to its treasury.

During the introduction of Euro currency in Europe, other european countries discovered the french exploitation scheme. Many, specially the nordic countries, were appalled and suggested France get rid of the system, but unsuccessfully.



#9. Obligation to send France annual balance and reserve report.

Without the report, no money.

Anyway the secretary of the Central banks of the ex-colonies, and the secretary of the bi-annual meeting of the Ministers of Finance of the ex-colonies is carried out by France Central bank / Treasury.



#10. Renonciation to enter into military alliance with any other country unless authorized by France

African countries in general are the ones with will less regional military alliances. Most of the countries have only military alliances with their ex-colonisers! (funny, but you can’t do better!).

In the case France ex-colonies, France forbid them to seek other military alliance except the one it offered them.



#11. Obligation to ally with France in situation of war or global crisis

Over one million africans soldiers fought for the defeat of nazism and fascism during the second world war.

Their contribution is often ignored or minimized, but when you think that it took only 6 weeks for Germany to defeat France in 1940, France knows that Africans could be useful for fighting for la “Grandeur de la France” in the future.

There is something almost psychopathic in the relation of France with Africa.

First, France is severely addicted to looting and exploitation of Africa since the time of slavery. Then there is this complete lack of creativity and imagination of french elite to think beyond the past and tradition.

Finally, France has 2 institutions which are completely frozen into the past, inhabited by paranoid and psychopath “haut fonctionnaires” who spread fear of apocalypse if France would change, and whose ideological reference still comes from the 19th century romanticism: they are the Minister of Finance and Budget of France and the Minister of Foreign affairs of France.

These 2 institutions are not only a threat to Africa, but to the French themselves.

It’s up to us as African to free ourselves, without asking for permission, because I still can’t understand for example how 450 french soldiers in Côte d’Ivoire could control a population of 20 millions people!?

People first reaction when they learn about the french colonial tax is often a question: “Until when?”

For historical comparison, France made Haiti to pay the modern equivalent of $21 billion from 1804 till 1947 (almost one century and half) for the losses caused to french slave traders by the abolition of slavery and the liberation of the Haitian slaves.

African countries are paying the colonial tax only for the last 50 years, so I think one century of payment might be left!

Έπαινος, θα προκαλέσει σύγχυση μου εχθρός.....

that's just what i have to do now

God bless the British Colonialist. At least, they thought it fit not to burden the colonies they granted independence like France. Now, I know why many French Musical stars never succeed until they go to France!

Yes, & it's called Assimilation, where everything that belongs the country is totally eradicated & they are only left with the Parisienne ways only...

It is so bad that on the streets & markets of Adjame, Trechville et al in Abidjan, no LOCAL language is spoken even by the least literate, everybody parlez en francais..

This is why Nigeria needs to be great again. If Nigeria and South Africa can become prosperous, we can flush out these exploitative adventures of France in Africa. This can be done by providing economic, military and political support to these overburdened French territories. I understand the French are also behind a lot of political upheavals in French West Africa. Somehow, I am starting to believe that they could really be involved in Boko-haram conflict. Nigeria is surrounded by French-speaking countries who rely on us for their survival. This makes us a perfect target for economic and political sabotage by France.

This information deserves front page. All Africans deserve economic and political freedom!

Africa is cursed with unfortunate great grandparents and grandparents.
How can someone come into your compound, molest you and your family and when leaving, you still owe allegiance to him.
Now, that's extreme cowardice.

Can all this bullshit happen if it were "our" time? No wonder they were taken as slaves. No foresight.

By the time these people were thinking of their evils, our grandparents were busy looking for rams and Cockrell to offer to one diety that would later be crushed by a boot of these "whites"

I feel ashamed.

France infected her former colonies with 'jaiye jaiye' lifestyle as they are more concerned with 'work small, chop big'!

1.) How can we provide economic, military & political succor to these overburdened french territories when the “invisible hands” of the colonial masters are still heavy on Nigeria like the hands of Yahweh upon Elijah?

Wake up & smell the coffee! Until Nigeria boycotts the West entirely & aligns with Mother Russia, we will continue to wallow in a murky soup of low self-esteem, slavery & backwardness.

2.) Ofcourse France, America & Britain are behind Boko-Haram. Y do you think Buhari kept quiet on the sponsors of BH?

3.) In Africa, my friend, Nigeria is the primary target of the AngloZionist Empire.

We must embrace freedom in poverty & shun opulence in slavery while looking up to our only savior - Mother Russia!

The british too did not give total freedom to her colonies in africa. Its an arrangement thing with government, thats why poverty will continue to associate with africa continent. E.g upstream sector of oil n gas of the country is no go area for nigeria govt. To discuss about with the public. When we say poverty, poverty will still continue. Until we have total freedom. Till that time africa countries will continue to wallow, swim, even romance poverty if things like this is not addressed.

Op what about Morrocco,Algeria,Tunisia, Mauritania are French colonies,how come they dont make the Exploited list?Do they have special programmes for Arabs?
Most of the AFRICAN COUNTRIES PAYING FRANCE HAVE FREE MASONS AS THEIR LEADERS.ALI BONGO OF GABON WAS THE HEAD FOR AFRICA Free masonry AROUND 2010 DONT KNOW IF HE IS STILL THE HEAD

Having met with a variety of Africans due to the nature of my work, I can say the British did a far better job as colonialists than France. The best homegrown economies in Africa are Nigeria, Kenya, Botswana, South Africa, Zimbabwe, Ghana and Egypt. I can't say the same for many French colonies, their economy is nowhere. Secondly, these British African colonies have the best scholastic brains that drive African research. The French former colonies are nowhere to be found also. In conclusion, France did a poor job as colonial masters. They left little or no legacies in their colonies making them very backward up till date! Asking for post-colonial privileges from their former colonies is sheer exploitation and also dehumanising.

the British are worse than the French, the britishdid the same thing in a different manner, when the francofone people really decide enough is enough they can easily emancipate themselves unlike say Nigeria where the Fulani and Hausa are given so much ammunition and power to dominate others in return if favour from the brits then Yoruba cowardly becomes a tag along for them, this system of exploitation is really hard to break because any form of revolution is quickly tagged Hausa, Yoruba agenda. So there can never be unity.

[b]REMEMBER THIS REPORT IN 2011
Tambuwal, Belgore Blame Foreign Powers For Nigeria's WOES

The speaker of the House of Representatives, Aminu Tambuwal, and former Chief Justice of the Federation, Alfa Belgore, yesterday launched scathing attacks on unnamed foreign nations whom they blamed for Nigeria's mounting corruption and instability.,
At a meeting with Mr Tambuwal on Wednesday, Mr Belgore accused foreign nations of arming and sponsoring the Boko Haram sect, whose militant operations have killed hundreds in northern Nigeria and the federal capital, Abuja.

"The kind of weapons used by Boko Haram for instance, they are not made here," the former jurist said. "They are not being given to them by people here. If our security were well trained, they would have known where these weapons are coming from." He added that the "so called developed nations" are fanning Nigeria's breakup.

Separately, Mr Tambuwal, told a nongovernmental group that lax fund transfer policies of developed nations have "significantly" fuelled public treasury looting in Nigeria.

"Because it takes two to tango," Mr Tambuwal told members of the Kuramo foundation, a group pushing for the passage of law enforcing the repatriation and transparent use of recovered funds.

"In a case where our foreign friends pay lip service to this, then they are condoning corruption because our public office holders will need where to keep their loot. They should legislate to stop the receipt of such money," the speaker said.

He said he had raised similar concerns at a forum in the United States while he served as a member of the House in 2010, and called on the developed nations to "stop cooperating, abetting and aiding corrupt public office holder who after looting our treasury find where to keep the money in their countries." "If you get ill gotten wealth, you will need where to keep them. If you don't find anywhere, then you will be stuck with it, then it will be easy for the law enforcement to get you.

The remarks are some of the most stringent and direct from key officials of government, serving or past, against foreign nations, particularly on the subject of Nigeria's fledgling security.

Resource course

Mr Belgore said many developed nations have worked hard for Nigeria to break up since independence, and would be pleased if that is realised.

"One of the best things to happen to the black race is Nigeria. The so called developed nations are not happy with our stability and they try everything to make it unstable," he said.

He recalled the alleged role of Germany in Nigeria's deadly first coup of 1966 in which many died, and how the development backtracked the training of personnel for the country's new Air Force.

"Nigeria and Brazil had just signed the treaty for our Air Force personnel to be trained by Germany and not long after, we had the first coup in which our leaders were killed," he said. "Then because of the betrayal, our officers including former head of state, Abdulsalami Abubakar, were recalled and moved to the Army while some were deployed to the Customs and the Police. Meanwhile Brazil continued with their training.

"Our iron and steel has remained nowhere despite spending over $80 billion over the past years on the Ajaokuta. After spending that much, we are still grappling with it, we have not gone anywhere." He said the same plot to keep Nigeria permanently on its knees because of its abundant resources is what afflicts the Republic of Congo.

"In Congo, they are still killing themselves, and they say we are going to break up by 2015," he said.[/b]

Is it not possible for all affected African countries to team up against the French exploitation?

On a scale of 1 to 10, I would score the British 6/10 for giving their former colonies some sort of freedom, independence, intellectualism and Human Capital Development. It was during their era Africa trained some of her brightest minds. However, I will abysmally score France 2/10, they are a good example of bad colonialists. A good colonialist should give at most 60% back to their territories. France gave less than 15% back to her territories in my humble opinion.

You need to read about Thomas Sankarah of Burkina Faso on the consequences of trying to team up against French exploitation.

Nice one OP!

This deserves Front Page! The moderators should do the needful.

cocolacec:

You need to read about Thomas Sankarah of Burkina Faso on the consequences of trying to team up against French exploitation.

The continent at this stage should be far more advanced to organize a more Co-ordinated and united resistance to these bullies. I still believe Africans are still Africa's problems. The way African nations are pawned with with "Africans" is disheartening. The exploitation is too bad.

This is the more reason I was mad seeing people changing their profile pix on fb to france. These guyz are evil.
If only these Foreign countries will let Africans be and develope. They destabilize Africa and bring in Aids , what a hypocricy.

What still begs for answers is : does it mean there is no way out. Are we stuck with this sort of nonsense for life.
What and how do we get rid of this strangulation.

Same mentality and display of backward intelligence. I realised that it is not the fault of the colonial masters but their African colonies.
Who would see some one displaying such folly with so much resources and would not want to take advantage on it.
same folly I see displayed today, instead of looking for a way forward some are busy discussing what slave master is better.
Wake up and plan, if there be no short term plan there should be a long term one, I think the west took several years of planning to achieve the result they are basking on today.
Same french that backed the Biafrans in their war backs Boko Haram in their agitation by supplying them arms and ammunition an my brothers in the east can't understand it. That same foolishness that makes a man sell his neighbour into slavery because they share a grudge or the neighbours are weak is playing out. This is because the more they betray each other and sell themselves to slave traders the weaker they become without knowing. At the end the colonial masters takes everything with little resistance.
That is what these white wants the more divided we are the less stronger we become, the more the white man have his way. I know some sympathisers of Biafra would want me crucified but that is the truth. Just like the movie, Game of Thrones. The humans were ignorantly fighting for a metallic thrown, wasting viable man power while the white walkers come for all of them. Although I think if the eastern people elect the right persons there will be no need for Biafra. That is by the way.
I think there is no better time to come together, no better time to be United, no better time to stand and fight these colonial masters with resilience. We may not have the armour they posses, but we have access to the media. We may not have the whips to cajole our African brothers to listen to us but we have the voice to talk with them. Majority of the black irrespective of your status in the society is seeing as a lesser being in the society, you can do nothing about that. They yet see most of them as Nigerians, so it is time to start something.

In other words, Africa should support Isis for committing murder in France abi? Op, you are a terrorist trying to make a case for your blood-sucking brothers.

But can somebody tell me why an African country should have its Central Bank in France? Does it make any sense? No wonder many of these countries are not prospering economically. Can you imagine another country scrutinizing your national budget and teleguiding you on what to do and not to do?

When President Laurent Gbagbo of Côte d’Ivoire tried to end the French exploitation of the country, France organized a coup. During the long process to oust Gbagbo, France tanks, helicopter gunships and Special Forces intervened directly in the conflit, fired on civilians and killed many.

Indeed the Ouattara government paid them twice what they said they had lost in leaving.

Get your fact right sir! Gbagbo was not ousted through a coup in 2006, he was removed through the ballot in 2010. The 2006 Civil war was instigated by him. I'm not a fan of the French or Outtara but you don't have to LIE!

Also, it is FALSE and INSANE to posit that the french make a whopping $50billion annually from African countries. That's very far from the truth. Very very very faaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaar
