In Cameroon’s resource-rich East and Adamaoua regions, a pervasive “gold fever” has taken hold, fueling an expansive illicit trade. Across these territories, mining operations proliferate with alarming speed, yet the Cameroonian state finds itself largely powerless to assert its authority or enforce regulatory oversight.

These vast fortunes ultimately find their way to Dubai, facilitated by sophisticated criminal networks. These illicit operations thrive on the back of deeply entrenched local complicities, with…

La jeune fille d’Abdoulaye Tandina, qui tient un commerce à Tombouctou, est «inconsolable», décrit un proche avec compassion. Le…

Yet the post-tournament fallout has taken an even more dramatic turn, with calls for accountability growing louder by the day. Public outrage intensified after Abdoulaye Fall, president of the Senegalese Football Federation (FSF), publicly blamed the national team’s head coach for the squad’s early exit. This sweeping accusation, many argue, deflects attention from systemic issues within the federation itself. “His statement is reckless and unwarranted. Assigning blame solely…
