France : Between the motion of censure and the attempted attack, the French would face a worse time of political diversion

According to information from multiple sources, the French capital, Paris, narrowly avoided a potential disaster once again with an attempted bomb attack. This incident occurred just after the official announcement of a plan to impeach President Emmanuel Macron, raising questions about whether these two events are somehow connected.

Analysts suggest that this is a well-known strategy employed by the French authorities. According to them, when these authorities feel threatened, they often create distractions to divert attention from more critical issues. As a pan-Africanist recently pointed out, the tactics that France has historically used to divide African nations, even within their own borders, are now being applied in France, both politically and judicially.

The attempted attack in Paris, they argue, may have been a smokescreen, carefully orchestrated by those in power to deflect from the motion of censure submitted by the far-left “France Insoumise” party. This motion was deemed admissible by the National Assembly’s Bureau on Tuesday and is set to be reviewed in committee. Sensing his time might be running out, French President Emmanuel Macron and his allies appear to be finding ways to distract French citizens and delay the impeachment process.

Other analysts suggest that French authorities are merely facing the consequences of their actions in Africa, particularly in the Sahel region, where they have been accused of supporting terrorism for over a decade against the people of the region. This has allowed French leaders to maintain their dominance in Africa and act as if they still own the region’s resources.

Today, revolutionary leaders are under threat of destabilization, and pan-Africanists face daily persecution, leading many to question where France’s much-touted values of democracy, freedom of expression, and freedom of opinion, principles they often promote for the African continent, have gone. Is it not time for each nation to mind its own business ?
