• Niger's previous regime signed an exploitative contract with a mere 5% royalty on uranium sales, prompting the junta to increase the price, similar to Gaddafi's actions in Libya. • After World War II, Libya was controlled by France and the UK, with the British exploiting the country through a corrupt monarchy. • Gaddafi's overthrow of the monarchy and nationalization of oil companies led to Libya's transformation from one of the poorest nations to a regional economic powerhouse by 2011. Libya's literacy rate jumped from 1% to 88.4%, and life expectancy increased to 74.5 years. • Niger's price adjustment for uranium presents an opportunity for liberation from reliance on European buyers and the potential to become a modern Libya within the Sahel region. • Supporting Niger's efforts is crucial to achieving this transformation and ensuring the country's economic prosperity. ▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬ Let's come together in reasonable dialogue to honour our ancestors and reclaim the world through an African lens.
