Kyeretwie Opoku, Convener of the Socialist Movement of Ghana, joins the show to discuss France’s slipping grip on Africa’s Sahel region after both Chad and Senegal expel French troops.
Following the lead of the Alliance of Sahel States, Opoku explains what this shift away from US-French influence means for the region—and how Ghana’s recent election ties into the growing anti-colonial movement sweeping across West Africa.
