Why Africa Is Poor (your FREE webinar series)
A special FREE 4 video webinar series emailed direct to your inbox explaining how Africa is so resource rich yet trapped in perpetual debt and poverty
Alkebulanians,
When people ask, “Why is Africa poor?” my answer is simple. Africa isn’t poor. Africa is the greatest crime scene in human history.
PAY ATTENTION
Africa is the richest place on earth
Oil. Gold. Coltan. Cobalt. Uranium. Diamonds. Gas. Lithium. Timber. Fertile land. Young people. Ancient knowledge. Strategic location.
So the real question is not, “Why is Africa poor?”
It’s ‘how did the richest continent on earth get trapped in poverty?’
I made a video about billionaire Aliko Dangote building Nigeria’s first fully operational oil refinery in decades. That video hit millions of views because Africans understood what it represented.
Proof.
Proof that we can build and produce for ourselves.
And that we don’t need to remain dependent forever.
But in that same video, I also told you that instead of congratulating Nigeria for pulling itself up by its bootstraps, the World Bank told us to open up the oil industry to more competition.
Insane.
It also raised a much bigger question. How did Nigeria, one of the biggest oil producers in the world, become a country that had to import refined fuel?
How does a country with over 44 commercially viable minerals end up drowning in debt to nations that do not have a fraction of what we have?
How did almost every African nation become trapped inside a global financial system that keeps us borrowing, begging, devaluing, privatizing, and selling off pieces of ourselves just to survive?
The answer is not the African laziness and corruption propaganda. That is a symptom.
The answer is economics.
In my time since creating this platform, I have learned about African debt. Currency control. Trade dependency. Structural adjustment. Foreign ownership. Post-independence agreements. And systems built long before most of us were born.
Now I want to teach you what I have discovered.
I have built a free 4 part mini-course, delivered straight to your inbox.
Not hours of boring lectures. Just simple, clear, pre-recorded video email breakdowns of the Debt Trap and the systems used to keep African economies from truly prospering. THIS IS A MUST WATCH FOR ALL PAN AFRICANS
By the end, you will understand why Africa can be rich in resources and still be forced into poverty. You will also discover why African poverty is essential to the maintenance of Western economic dominance.
With the Alkebulan Academy in 2027, I am making African ignorance a choice.
Today, the choice to begin is yours.
Teach Merc. Ask better questions. Read and study widely. Ignorance is choice.
