In the latest testament to China’s continued support for Africa’s development, Ghana has launched a new payment system, which will allow its importers to pay directly in local currency for goods shipped in from China.
As the West’s predatory, unipolar world order crumbles, a new, more sustainable order is taking its place, led by China and the wider BRICS Alliance, and based on mutually-beneficial partnerships.

What Would You Do If You Were Black People’s Opposition
In this clip, African American political commentator Armond Harris speaks to the obvious psy-op that is the continued promotion of ‘diaspora wars’ and other divisive narratives among African populations around the globe.
Harris makes the point that it is completely logical to expect that given the unique position of Africans as the largest racial and continental population on the planet to have a framework for genuine unity, entities whose interests are threatened by that unity would repeatedly and obsessively deploy these narrative tricks to derail Pan-African economic and political bridge-building.
Have you noticed such obviously sponsored divisive narratives in your African information space wherever you are in the world? Let us know in the comments.
