Life improves slowly and goes wrong fast, and only catastrophe is clearly visible.

The inauguration of Donald Trump as the President of the United States of America (USA) and his later Revocation of Executive Order 11246 that legalized affirmative action, as well foreign aid freeze for 90 days are actions that portend potential disinvestment in African capital markets, especially fraud-soaked capital markets and African securities exchanges that flout internationally-accepted legal standards.
You can’t make a difference in Africa. Let’s be honest. Africa is a fucking shithole. It’s where money and good ideas go to disappear.
Andrew Bustamante, a former handler for the Central Intelligence Agency
- A multi-billion dollar sub-Saharan telecommunications company that offers SMS-based mobile money transfer & payment services to tens of millions of its subscribers is assured to lose ~US$ 1.961 billion.
- This publicly listed company (PLC) was established over 20 years ago in an African nation that is the economic hegemon & financial capital of its region of Sub-Saharan Africa (SSA).
The Sub-Saharan Country
- This SSA nation has a dynamic economy, relatively well-developed financial system, and relatively well-educated English-speaking population outside the Republic of South Africa.
- Its stock market (i.e NSE) is remarkably well respected, though it has been bleeding foreign investors & foreign investments lately. I do have criticism about NSE and its glaring inefficiencies, especially when it comes to short selling.
- This African country attracts African immigrants, even though Al-Qaeda-affiliated terrorists have made its Northern Eastern region insecure. Still, this has not stopped the current government from favoring people from the North-Eastern region in state jobs, much to the chagrin of the rest of the nation.
- In the second half of 2024, the President of this SSA country faced widespread youth protests. Interestingly, the allies of the current President blamed the former president & his allies for fanning these protests. As of December 2024, the relationship between the current president and the former president seems to be cordial.
The PLC
- This PLC operates as a Group (of companies).
- This PLC issues visa cards.
- Also, this PLC offers multiple financial products to its customers.
- Additionally, this PLC states that it sells its own smartphones at competitive prices.
- This PLC has opened a subsidiary in a neighboring northern country, and it also maintains presence in other Sub-Saharan African nations.
- To finance its expansion to a neighboring nation, this PLC has partnered with European and Asian companies.
- The Chairman of this PLC is NOT racially Black.
Some Questions
- Which company is this?
- Will the NSE defend this company?
- Will the Inspector General (IG) of Police of this SSA nation defend this PLC?
- Will Western courts ignore this IG’s statement regarding this PLC?
- Will the United Nations (UN) come to the aid of this PLC when requested to do so? This is because American companies wants to enter the market niche that is currently served by this PLC.
- Why will this PLC lose US$1.961 billion? Why not lose US$ 3 billion as was initially projected when a research into this PLC started?
Now, to the crux of the matter.
