I'd say the problem is not western media shows a "false" Africa, but little Africa anyway. News is crisis. Crisis is war, terrorism, famine. Of course that is shown first, maybe giving some people wrong impressions. But hey, who in Europe should think people in Africa were overall living in mud houses? Ignorants do, not others. Thats not a point of media, but of education and intelligence.... On the other hand: Africa is diverse. Isn't some criticism about neo-colonial perspectives that people speak only of Africa like it was one country, while there are over 50 of them? So we also should not state things like "Africa in western news". And finally: progress is not just a matter of technology or infrastructure, but of social infrastructure, good governance, accountable and without corruption, free media, democracy and human rights. >Things not visible in videos.

at 3:45 - this was a teaching moment and i am HIGHLY DISAPPOINTED AS AN IVORIAN YOU COULDNT TAKE TIME TO EXPLAIN THE RELATION BETWEEN GHANA AND IVORY COAST AND THE REASON FOR THE SIMILARITIES IN FOOD, LANGUAGE, CUSTOMS AND CULTURE. IT IS BECAUSE WE ARE BLOOD SIBLINGS SEPARATED DUE TO CIRUMSTANCE DURING COLONIZATION The main peoples of the Ivory Coast are the Akan people (the largest ethnic group - exactly like in ghana), the Mandé people, and the Gur people. There are, however, many other ethnic groups present in the country The AKANS OF IVORY COAST migrated westward from Ghana when the Asante rose to power. This tale of their breakaway is preserved in their oral traditions. During the ghana Asante rise to power, the Baule queen, Aura Poku, was competing directly with the Asante king. When she lost, she led some akans away from Ghana and to the Central Ivory Coast. Aura Poku's descendant occupies the throne and palace she built, and is honored by the Baule as their nominal king.The Baoule are a part of the Akan people who inhabit Ivory Coast and Ghana.

Lot of so called panafricanist countries hate Ivory Coast because they have a great president who understands how to develop a country in West Africa without talking too much his work speaks for him

[@garanceahran7953]

Lol, va dire ça aux libanais et aux dirigeants des entreprises françaises qui tiennent une grande partie de votre économie, il n' y a pas plus colonial que vous, il y a rien à célébrer là dedans, la grande majorité des ivoiriens sont pauvres comme nous tous ici en Afrique.

[@hotpepper5037]

Yes ouattara is a builder and constructive leader

[@chewenio-pz5km]

The reason why they hate it because they want to go to Africa and build it themselves so that they can make a name for themselves. A country for their own .They were losers in the west . After seeing black panther( wakanda )they think they can go to Africa and do it better than the Africans with their resources. Cause they think Africans are can't do it themselves. The sad thing you have a lot of simpleton Africans inviting them to come build Africa not knowing what their true intentions are is to takeover and do better than them withe their own resources.

[@AdwoaLinda222]

Are you sure it's the president whose developing IC or the French colonizers who control the resources? What are the percentages of Africans owning corporations in IC? Are Africans living better than the foreigners in IC? Maybe that's why Pan Africanist have issues with IC. The president Caucasian wife's son controls most of the coco than an African. That's crazy!!!

[@africanmindsetseries]

Ghanaian here, who lived in Abidjan, Côte d'Ivoire for 10 years.... Have very fond memories of my time there and still have many friends there. Their first president, Felix Houphouet Boigny, laid the foundation for their development. Due to his longevity in power ie 30 years +, he oversaw a lot of the development before his death and laid the blue print for future development. (That's what Kwame Nkrumah would have done for Ghana if he had the same amount of time in power! ) Abidjan is a beautiful and well planned city. Amazing Place....and the food is yummy too! PS : The Akans (Baoule people) in ivory coast share similar culture to Akans in Ghana

Choose the language of the largest tribe in SAHEL ELHAG (Côte d'Ivoire) and make it the country's official language alongside English (for education only) Do anything to avoid the French language. You will never see anything good from France or Europe in general.
