Nathalie Yamb at the Civic Chamber of the Federation of Russia

Nathalie Yamb is a political activist member of the party LIDER in Ivory Coast, which president Mamadou Koulibaly is currently running for the presidency of the country.

She made a speech that went viral in the Russia-Africa summit at Sotchi where she denounced the harsh truths of French neocolonialism in Africa and the implication of African leaders she described as puppets.

Her speech, shared in great numbers on social media, led to her expulsion from the country little time later.

This intervention takes place after she was expelled.

Mamadou Koulibaly, leader of LIDER, was Minister of Finance for a little less than a year in 2000. He was one of the few elected at the time to want out of the CFA and peeped the tight control France had on Ivory Coast. He was then President of the General Assembly for 12 years.

His plan not only involve getting out the nazi currency, but also giving back lands (land belong to the state in Ivory Coast) to who the people who always lived on it, as well as severing the ties between France and the country.

If that breh wins in 2020, it might be game over for France in Africa. Ivory Coast's oligarchy, with Ouattara at his head, is the biggest ally of France in Africa. It could create a domino effect just like it did for the "independences", because the others are watching.
