Africa's independence activist shares publication on Baku conference

BAKU, Azerbaijan, October 4. The Baku Initiative Group organized an international conference on the policies of French neocolonialism in Africa, TurkicWorld reports.

According to information, participating in the conference, Kemi Seba, known as one of the leaders symbolizing the movement for African independence, sovereignty, and struggle against neo-colonial powers, shared his impressions on Instagram.

Seba noted in his publication that the Baku Initiative Group seeks to support movements combating French neo-colonialism.

Meanwhile, an international conference on the policy of French neocolonialism in Africa, organized by the Baku Initiative Group, was held last day.

The conference was attended by representatives of African countries (Senegal, Burkina Faso, Cameroon, Guinea-Bissau, the Democratic Republic of the Congo, Mauritania, Zimbabwe, and Niger), as well as France and the French enslaved island of Mayotte.

To note, Kemi Seba is known as one of the leaders who symbolized the movement for African independence, sovereignty, and the struggle against neo-colonial powers. He is also one of the main critics of French neocolonialism. Kemi Seba was born in 1981 in Strasbourg. He was blacklisted by France for openly and strongly criticizing and denouncing the damage caused by France's nefarious colonial policies to African countries as well as overseas territories still under French control.

France arrested Seba several times to silence him but, failing to do so, stripped him of his French citizenship in an attempt to subject him to exile. However, France failed to do so. Thus, in response to this step by France, several African countries granted diplomatic immunity to Seba.
