WHY PALESTINE'S STRUGGLE IS AFRICA'S STRUGGLE IN THE DIGITAL AGE

WHY PALESTINE'S STRUGGLE IS AFRICA'S STRUGGLE IN THE DIGITAL AGE By The Afrisocrat Editorial Board September 2025 🌍 Beyond Borders, Beyond Silence For decades, Palestine has symbolized resistance against occupation. But in 2025, the battlefield is not only Gaza or Jerusalem — it is the digital space. Every hashtag suppressed, every video censored, every trending keyword manipulated is a reminder that narrative is power. And here lies the link: Palestine’s struggle is Africa’s struggle. Africans, too, know what it means to be silenced, misrepresented, and reduced to statistics by global media. Palestine is a warning: if you don’t control your own story, someone else will erase it. 🔎 Africa’s Digital Reflection in Palestine Algorithmic Suppression → African activism often disappears online, just like Palestinian voices on TikTok or Twitter. Colonial Narratives → Western outlets frame Africa and Palestine as “chaos zones” rather than centers of resilience. Dependence...

CAMEROON IS NOT A COUNTRY, IT IS A BUSINESS — AND THE PEOPLE ARE THE PREY

CAMEROON IS NOT A COUNTRY, IT IS A BUSINESS — AND THE PEOPLE ARE THE PREY In Cameroon today, the people are not treated as citizens — they are treated as prey. And the predator has a name: Paul Biya.

WHO REALLY CONTROLS THE ANGLOPHONE REGIONS OF CAMEROON? For nine solid years, the Anglophone crisis has dragged on like an unending nightmare. Nine years of bloodshed, economic ruin, and despair. Yet, the government of Cameroon beats its chest every month claiming that “normalcy has returned.” Minister Atanga Nji swears peace has been restored. MKPD floods the internet with propaganda declaring victory. Ngoh Ngoh whispers to foreign partners that Yaoundé has crushed separatism. And Prime Minister Dion Ngute insists schools, businesses, and churches are thriving again. But reality speaks louder than propaganda. THE MOCKERY OF “NORMALCY” If the government truly controls the Anglophone regions, why do lockdowns declared by Ambazonians still bring life to a standstill? Schools close. Churches are empty. Markets are deserted. Transporters ground their vehicles. And all this happens not because Yaoundé says so, but because Ambazonian fighters snap their fingers and everyone obeys...
