Dear participants it's a great pleasure and honour to be gathered here today for the first AES summit heads of state, we are grateful to God I would also like to pay tribute to the people of Niger, who have suffered greatly since the advent of the CNSP, and yet remains resilient you are more than friends and neighbours, you are our brothers and sisters, we share the same blood of the brave warriors who fought and reserved the land, we now call Mali, Burkina, and Niger, our blood also carries the legacy of those warriors who helped the world rid itself of nazism and other scourges, it carries the blood of those who were enslaved and contributed to the construction of different nations, we should be proud of our heritage and grateful to be citizens of AES.
Africa our continent has suffered so much and continues to suffer because of imperialism, these imperialists have only one cliche in mind, Africa is the Empire of slaves, this is how they see Africa, for them Africans belong to them, our lands belong to them, our subsoil belongs to them, they have never been able to change the logic until today, this is deplorable, they have just placed local valets at the head, according to them of their sub-prefecture to be able to continue to feed them, these local valets which we are going to call today the slaves of the salon have other goals, they want to live like the master, to satisfy the master and to do everything that the master dictates to them.
They plunder our states, they bring everything to the master, and their wealth is kept with the master, they do everything to live like the master and always satisfy him, do you know who these slaves of the salon are?
Well, we are going to explain to you what they are.
They are individuals who have no dignity, who have no morals, who have no personality, but the master slaves have always known how to identify these individuals, they are always ready to betray their brother to satisfy the master.
They have betrayed us since our independence and others continue to betray us to the benefit of their masters, these individuals continue against all odds to help the master plunder Africa.
They have sent several mercenaries and trainers to our area, and the agents have descended into the Sahel to carry out brutal cowardly attacks against our people, hoping to revolt against them, in addition to these attacks on the ground, the attacks on communication, manipulation and disinformation are full in their ranks, but the people of the Sahel have understood, and we will never be able to be manipulated again, they know where they come from, they know what they are doing, and they know where they are going.
We will no longer allow this, people are awake and people are fighting today not for ourselves, but for future generations, thank you all for the fight that is being fought, this will never make us cry, we will not tremble, we will fight for real independence, for our freedom.
To scare the people of the Sahel, these individuals have only three terms in their mouths, Democracy, Freedom and Human Rights, of course, their local values are only elected in a democratic free, and transparent process according to their values, what is more, normal that we want to impose this on ourselves, because it is they who addict the rules, very well we have decided to take responsibility.
Do you know why on June 26th, 2023 when Niger decided to turn the page, the slaves of salon and their masters got on the big horses, they put their local values forward and decided to wage a war against the Nigerian people, so we said, anyone who dares to take up arms against Niger will face us, because we will wage a relentless war until the last drop of blood for anyone who dares to attack our states, this word, this decision we made yesterday, is current today and will be current tomorrow and forever.
Thus we acquired the "AES" on September 16th, 2023 in a mutual defence architecture, but we felt it necessary to extend and therefore enlarge the "AES" architecture, what brings us together today must allow us to go to other areas in addition to defence, including finance, economy, infrastructure, health and education, so I hope that this moment will be for us a story that we will write for the "AES" but especially for Africa and for the whole world.
What a nice and eloquent speech from Ibrahim Traore. the seed of Thomas Sankara is here to blossom, all hail Mama Africa my captain, for it is our time to regain power and return our land, viva mama Africa, viva Africans, slaughtering Thomas Sankara was a grave mistake taken too far by western world, so does killing comrade Gaddafi and Pan Africanists were, soon Africa as a whole will be liberated with full force, that I can assure you, that we will never be slaves no more.
That we must articulate the Bob Marley lyrics of Africa Unite.
'Cause we're moving right out of Babylon
And we're going to our Father's land, yeah
How good and how pleasant it would be
Before God and man, yeah
To see the unification of all Africans, yeah
As it's been said already, let it be done, yeah
We are the children of the Rastaman
