Africa’s REAL Problem — Franck Zanu Breaks the Silence

Franck Zanu of ‪@FranckZanu‬ joins the State of the Nation for one of the most explosive and thought-provoking conversations we’ve had all year. Zanu — whose viral insights on Africa, culture, development and geopolitics have sparked global debate — confronts the ideas many leaders avoid: • Why African countries continue to struggle economically • What “culture” really means for development • Why corruption isn’t the true root cause • How colonialism is misunderstood • Why South Africa’s political structure is destined for conflict • The controversial “tribal nation” model he believes could save the continent • And why Western countries secretly want Africa to succeed This is not a conversation about blaming or excuses. It’s a conversation about responsibility, culture, identity, and hard truths. If you care about Africa’s future, South Africa’s political direction, or global geopolitics — you will not forget this episode. ✨ Tell us in the comments: Is Franck Zanu right or wrong?
