AFRICA DYNAMITE 🌍

  The Ministry of Defence  said on Wednesday that it firmly rejects what it calls an “outrageously provocative” report by the U.S.-based Human Rights Watch (HRW) on atrocities committed by its troops in the English-speaking region of Northwest. Human rights watch published a report on Wednesday 11th of August accusing the Cameroonian military of destroying properties, executing civilians, and looting. Reacting to this report, the Cameroon Ministry of Defence  through Atonfack Guemo stated that,   “HRW is known for its loathing against the Cameroonian defense and security forces and its logic which consists in systematically attributing to the Cameroonian army the abuses… based on alleged testimonies distilled by secessionist terrorists,” “The defense and security forces remain unperturbed as they carry on their operations across the national territory with respect for human and peoples’ rights,” he added.

Africa may be considered one of the poorest continents with a deficient standard of living. Interestingly most of the African presidents are believed to be one of the richest on the continent. Some of these leaders have most of their investments abroad like hospitals and hotels and often go abroad for the best medical treatments while their citizens are left back with very poor medical facilities and inadequate health personnel. Below is the list of the top ten richest African presidents in 2022 according to Forbes. 1. King Mohammed VI of Morocco with a net worth of $5.8 billion.   2. President Ali Bongo Ondimba of Gabon with a net worth of $2 billion.  3. President Teodoro Obiang Nguema Mbasogo of Equatorial Guinea with a net worth of $700                  million. 4. Uhuru Kenyatta of Kenya with a net worth of $530 million. 5. King Mswati III of Swaziland with a net worth of $500 million. 6. President Paul Kagame of Rwanda with a net worth of $460 million. 7.
