THE AFRICOM COMMANDER – By Chief Femi Fani-Kayode

The man in the picture is General Michael E. Langley. He is an American—a four-star General in the United States Marine Corps and the current Commander of the United States Africa Command (AFRICOM).

To Pan-Africanists and true African nationalists, this man is not a friend. He is not an ally. He is an agent of Western imperialism—a willing instrument in the hands of those who seek to dominate, suppress, and exploit Africa. He represents a force that is determined to bleed us dry, discredit our leaders, and crush any progressive movement that emerges on this continent.

Recently, he called for the removal and elimination of Captain Ibrahim Traoré, the Head of State of Burkina Faso, accusing him of misappropriating the gold meant for his people. This is not the first time he has interfered in African affairs. He has repeatedly criticized African leaders and tried to discredit their efforts—unless, of course, they serve the interests of the CIA or bow to Western demands.

Langley only seems comfortable with African leaders who serve as puppets—those who tremble before Washington and parrot Western scripts. He has no regard for those who speak truth to power or strive for genuine African autonomy.

When the story of Africa’s journey is written, General Langley’s name will be remembered with shame and contempt. His legacy will be one of betrayal—a modern-day Quisling. He will be grouped with characters like Vidkun Quisling, the Norwegian traitor who collaborated with the Nazis; Kemi Badenoch, the British Conservative politician who denies her African roots; and “Uncle Tom,” the infamous fictional symbol of servility.

Despite his previous distasteful comments, Langley continues to spew provocative nonsense. During a television interview on Kenya’s Citizen TV on May 27th, he arrogantly declared:

“I have talked to a number of Ministers of Defence and Presidents and told them we were assessing. If we are that important to you, you need to communicate that and we will see.”

This statement reeks of arrogance and entitlement. After facing backlash from millions of Africans for meddling in our affairs, he still has the audacity to lecture us—talking down to sovereign nations as though we are schoolchildren begging for approval.

Who exactly does he think he is? Who gave him the right to assess us? Who invited him to Africa? What purpose has AFRICOM served in Africa other than spreading destabilization and discord?

In Nigeria, we have battled terrorism for over 15 years—fighting deadly insurgent groups like Boko Haram, Al Qaeda, and ISWAP. We reached out, time and again, for assistance and cooperation. But the U.S., under Langley’s command, turned its back on us. No meaningful military support. No satellite intelligence. No access to advanced weapons. Only empty words, lectures, and interference.

Instead of helping us, they have tried to weaken, undermine, and shame us. AFRICOM, under Langley’s leadership, has done nothing but feed chaos and exploit the resulting instability to justify its own presence.

They apply a familiar tactic—the Hegelian Dialectic: create the problem, observe the reaction, and then offer themselves as the solution. It’s a well-worn imperialist script. As British author David Icke aptly put it, it’s the “Problem-Reaction-Solution” formula used by Western powers to manipulate and subdue the Global South.

Let’s be clear: the West—and men like Langley—are the root of Africa’s suffering. We do not need their presence. We do not need their conditional aid, veiled threats, or false promises. We do not need their hypocrisy.

We need General Langley like we need poison. Like we need Ebola. Like we need AIDS, COVID, and cancer rolled into one. We need AFRICOM in Africa like we need cockroaches and rats in our homes.

Africa is no longer your playground. No longer your slave girl to be raped, plundered, and tossed aside. We are rising. We are finding our voice. We will choose our own leaders, solve our own problems, and forge our own path.

So take your occupying forces and leave. Pack your arrogance and imperialist agenda—and never come back.

We remember what you did to Patrice Lumumba, Thomas Sankara, Sylvanus Olympio, Kwame Nkrumah, Muammar Gaddafi, Gamal Abdel Nasser, Laurent Gbagbo, Murtala Mohammed, Jerry Rawlings, Ahmed Ben Bella, Robert Mugabe, Nelson Mandela, and countless others.

We remember how you undermined ECOMOG, destroyed North Africa and the Sahel, fueled terrorism in East Africa, and empowered the Boers in Southern Africa. We remember it all.

The blood of our heroes cries out for justice, and our continent now stands ready. We are done with foreign domination. We are done with puppets. We are done with silence.

In the name of God, go—and let Africa become the continent of greatness and dignity that it was always destined to be.
