The numbers are in from your comments.

170+ cities. 34 countries. 6 continents.

From Ouagadougou to Oslo, Nairobi to New York—you are watching. And you are asking the same question: Why isn’t this the headline?

$587 billion lost every year. $148 billion to corruption alone. $90 billion to illicit financial flows. $275 billion to multinational corporations shifting profits out of Africa through legalized loopholes.

Meanwhile, an AfDB-funded agricultural training programme in Bobisi, DRC—$120 million—has delivered nothing. Not a single trained farmer. Not a single functioning well. Just consultants, subcontractors, and silence.

We are not narrating helplessness. We are documenting the battle.

If you haven’t watched yet, the link is below. And if you’re watching from a country where this story isn’t being told—share it. Be the algorithm.
