CAMEROONPRIDE: yup in Mali why you don't kick the french azz ...you are so free ...any west African except the smallest and poorest one can fix the problem in -72H but no one will do it because we all know that our masters are behind that and no one(leaders) want to go against their interests but i thought you said ghana is a free country
That's the role of a leader you're right!

You think like a typical dumb Bakassi man!!!


grin grin grin grin grin


Go find out who funds Al Qaeda in the Islamic Maghreb?? Europeans who they capture and get huge ransoms from!!!

Then ask yourself,

How did the problem in Mali come about??

NATO invaded Libya and the guns that were on the loose were used to help the Tuareg rebellion and overrun the North which gave the space for Al Qaeda in the Islamic Maghreb to take over...

If NATO created it then, they should solve it! Why on earth would I want to die for NATO's interests(Libyan oil)!!

Are you crazy??

how come you don't want to die for the freedom of Africa......it's the same in Cameroon no one want to die over an oil company .....after all it's only a natural resource ....we complain because we are exploited without any solutions to our minimal problems(health,education,food etc) if cameroon had it i wouldn't care about who pumps my oil

as far as shes black, no problem

french man samuel eto married an Iviorian lady but still a national hero but not considered a sell out

as fas as shes black

These Presidents with white spouses are the shames of African leadership. Do you know how many beautiful black African chicks there are on this continent? If you want a foreigner, at least marry a African Carribean or African American. This is black continent. . . .put black skinned women in government house to represent our image and pride.

have u ever seen a white president with a black lady

have you noticed all french colonies have a large percentage of mixed pple. ya all stay loving on anything french

This thread is way too derailed and it's a bit annoying.

I usually don't care if a topic is derailed if the derailed discussion turns out to be a more interesting topic, but what you guys have been discussing is kind of boring.

You guys should probably start a new thread in the culture or politics section on Francophone African countries and their alleged connection to French puppetry.

The Umayyad empire (Arabs) conquered Spain with the aid of black/Berber troops (aka 'Moors'). The term "Moor" is not the name of any people or race, rather it is just a term used to collectively identify people of color in North and North West Africa.

These people are not the Songhay.

thats why rwandese pple have dumped anything french. .english is now the official language of rwanda
they dont want have anything to do with the french anymore

but I read abt the french colonial masters. . . Assimilation was one ideological basis of French colonial policy. .thats why french colonies have some kind of connection with the french unlike the British who focused on indirect rule
