14:32Now PlayingOn January 28, Mali, Burkina Faso, and Niger announced their withdrawal from the Economic Community of West African States (ECOWAS), a bloc condemned by West Africa’s popular movements as a vestige of French neo-colonial control of the region. In a statement announcing the exit, the three countries stated, “Under the influence of foreign powers”, the regional bloc of ECOWAS “has become a threat to its member states.” Kwesi Pratt, Jr. the General Secretary of the Socialist Movement Ghana (SMG), explains how West Africa’s popular movements are rising up against French neo-colonialism and what the withdrawal means for the region.
