Le Nigeria est de nouveau dans le viseur de l'administration Trump. Le président américain a récemment menacé le pays d'une intervention militaire pour protéger les chrétiens du Nigeria, qui seraient victimes, selon lui, de violences ciblées sous l'œil indifférent des autorités. Le Nigeria a été réintégré à la liste américaine des « pays particulièrement préoccupants en matière de liberté religieuse », dont il était sorti en 2021. Avant cela, Washington avait déjà annoncé un durcissement considérable des conditions d'obtention de visas « non immigrants » pour les citoyens nigérians désireux de se rendre aux États-Unis. Fin octobre, l'écrivain Wole Soyinka a également révélé que son visa américain avait été annulé. RFI a rencontré, à Paris, le premier prix Nobel africain de littérature, en 1986, qui a toujours été une voix critique de la politique de Donald Trump. RFI : Pensez-vous retourner un jour aux États-Unis ?   Wole Soyinka : J'en doute vraiment. C'est peu probable   Récemment, vous avez annoncé que votre visa américain avait été révoqué. Pour quelles raisons exactement ?   C'est un problème ancien qui remonte déjà à la première élection de Donald Trump. J'enseignais aux États-Unis et j'ai vu l'émergence de cette rhétorique politique à la fois raciste, exclusioniste, mais aussi égocentrique. Et en général extrêmement méprisant vis-à-vis des immigrés et même des étrangers. Rappelez-vous, quand il est arrivé au pouvoir, il a désigné un certain nombre de pays comme « des pays de merde », pardonnez l'expression. Je l'ai compris dès la campagne et j'ai promis que si cet homme arrivait au pouvoir, je déchirerais ma carte verte. C'est exactement ce que j'ai fait. Pourtant, après cela, vous avez quand même obtenu un autre visa pour les États-Unis ?  Oui, parce que, peu après avoir déchiré ma carte verte, j'ai reçu un courrier de l'administration fiscale américaine, pour m'annoncer que j'allais avoir un contrôle fiscal. Donc, je suis allé à l'ambassade au Nigeria, je leur ai expliqué que j'avais détruit mon permis de résidence aux États-Unis, mais que je ne voulais pas être considéré comme un fraudeur ou un fugitif. J'ai demandé un nouveau visa pour répondre à cette missive.  C'est ce visa qui vient d'être annulé ?  Oui, c'est correct. Cette fois, je n'ai même pas pris la parole. J'ai été directement ciblé, comme d'autres gens. J'ai reçu une lettre générique du consulat, une lettre qu'ils ont aussi adressée à d'autres Nigérians – et j'en suis sûr, aux citoyens d'autres pays – pour me demander de me présenter à un entretien. Parce que, je cite, « il y a eu des changements depuis l'émission de votre visa ». Ils me demandaient de me présenter au consulat, avec mon passeport. Je suis trop occupé pour cela et je savais très bien qu'ils avaient déjà pris leur décision, donc je n'y suis pas allé. Depuis que Donald Trump est revenu au pouvoir aux États-Unis, les immigrés sont ramassés dans la rue, au restaurant, et même dans les écoles. Je n'ai pas vraiment envie d'être associé à ce que cette société est devenue sous Donald Trump. Plus récemment, Donald Trump a fait de nouvelles déclarations concernant le Nigeria. Selon lui, les Chrétiens seraient les victimes d'une violence ciblée dans le pays. Qu'en pensez-vous ?   D'abord, c'est arrogant, mais c'est aussi profondément irresponsable. Je ne connais aucun pays à travers le monde qui ne connait pas de frictions. Bien sûr, il n'est pas question de nier l'existence d'extrémistes religieux au Nigeria et plus spécifiquement d'islamistes intégristes. Je le dis ouvertement. D'ailleurs, j'ai même écrit une pièce sur le meurtre d'une jeune étudiante, accusée de blasphème, qui a été lynchée et déshumanisée. On sait qu'il y a un problème. Mais c'est un acte extrêmement hostile lorsqu'une personne venue de l'extérieur exacerbe et exagère ce problème.   Il y a des tensions, il y a des violences, notamment entre les fermiers et les éleveurs. Des centaines de personnes ont été tuées dans ce conflit. Parfois, la religion est en cause, mais souvent, c'est plutôt une question économique. Bien sûr, les enlèvements d'enfants contre rançon sont des actes criminels. Mais choisir un aspect du problème, et affirmer que c'est la religion qui est au centre de toutes ces violences, ce n'est pas seulement mauvais, c'est aussi criminel. Rappelez-vous les mots qu'il a utilisés pour menacer le Nigeria d'une intervention militaire. Il a dit que les américains attaqueraient « armes à la main » et que ce serait « rapide, vicieux et doux ». Est-ce vraiment le genre de déclarations que l'on attend d'un leader ? Un chef d'État n'a pas le droit d'être simpliste. Et surtout n'a absolument pas le droit de creuser encore les divisions qui existent déjà. Il n'y a pas de société sans tensions, même aux États-Unis.   Pour finir, au mois d'octobre, le théâtre national de Lagos a rouvert ses portes sous le nom de Centre Wole Soyinka pour la culture et les arts créatifs. Appréciez-vous cette attention pour votre 90e anniversaire ?   Oui, c'est évidemment un honneur. Mais celui-ci devait-il m'être attribué ? C'est une autre question. Notamment lorsque vous avez passé, comme moi, toute votre vie à traverser toutes sortes de dictatures, où les dirigeants donnent leur nom à tout et n'importe quoi, y compris à des toilettes publiques.  Je suis indifférent à ce genre de chose. J'ai vécu ma vie, j'ai fait mon travail, je suis satisfait. À lire aussiDonald Trump en croisade pour protéger les chrétiens africains?

In Nigeria, tens of millions of people live without access to reliable power. Utibe Bassey grew up in Lagos, and knows what it's like to not have electricity to perform simple daily tasks. When she moved to the United States as a teen, she didn't think much about electric utilities. But she did think about how managers treat employees – a thought spurred by an unfortunate instance she witnessed while working at a fast food chain. Ever since then, Utibe has refined her personal philosophy, “Love as a KPI,” which prioritizes kindness and human connection in the workplace. As we prepare for our season six launch, we bring you one of our favorite episodes from season three of With Great Power. In this rerun episode, Utibe tells Brad about how she puts her personal philosophy to work at Dominion Energy, where she is vice president of customer experience. She also talks about what it means to work in the power industry, having lived without access to reliable power in her youth.  Credits: Hosted by Brad Langley. Produced by Erin Hardick.

Submarine and A Roach — Nigeria's funniest podcast and the #1 comedy podcast in Nigeria — presents “Detty December is Human Trafficking,” hosted by TMT & Koj.Every December, Lagos becomes a conveyor belt of bodies, bottles, and bravado—an economy of daytime festivals that start too late for the sun, beach days that turn into boat-hopping on the Lagos Lagoon, and selfies in the red-light district otherwise known as Lagos traffic. It's our annual rite of passage: equal parts pilgrimage and punishment.The boys build a Detty December checklist: stuffy clubs with famously disorderly queues; Russian roulette with fake alcohol; concerts that begin at 3 a.m. and stages that collapse by 3 a.m.; and the not-so-subtle deployment of Nigerian police by private citizens—like Pokémon.There's wedding culture, too: the old era of joyful gate-crashing is fading under inflation, replaced by a dystopian hustle where IJGBs and culture tourists buy access to “authentic” Nigerian weddings. TMT's PSA is simple: if you purchase a ticket to crash a wedding because of an IG ad made on Canva, expect hands. Koj counters that the market will protect anyone willing to buy tables at weddings like it's Rhythm Unplugged.Climate anxiety hovers over the festivities: rain bleeding into November, potentially signaling higher heat levels in December, and a city with a track record of not solving environmental crises—before the conversation pivots to Sanwo-Olu at Lagos Fashion Week, modeling a “sustainable” aesthetic. You can't spell APC without AC, so APC will cool the globe.The hosts resurrect the word “chassis”—a car term upgraded into a compliment—to show how Nigerianisms morph in real time. Ultimately, like Detty December itself, language is just infrastructure for what we really want: to be seen, to be inside, to say, “I survived.”

The South African city of Johannesburg has well over 100 abandoned and derelict buildings plagued by rubbish and open sewage and some have been taken over by criminal gangs. Many are also home to some of the city's most vulnerable residents. As Johannesburg gears up to host leaders from the world's major economies for the G20 summit, what is being done to address the issue of 'hijacked' buildings? BBC Africa Eye has been there to investigate, and we hear more from their reporter. For nearly five years, Burundians have endured crippling shortages of fuel, electricity, and clean water. What is behind the triple crisis that is paralysing most of the country?And why have protesters targeted the new multi-million dollar Museum of West African Art in Nigeria, forcing organisers to cancel preview events ahead of its grand opening.Presenter: Audrey Brown Producers: Todah Opeyemi in Lagos.

Yet Isaiah 41:10 still echoes: Do not fear… I am with you.From London to Islamabad, Lagos to Buenos Aires, the persecuted Church stands unshaken. Their courage is not born of comfort but of conviction — that Christ is worth everything. The same righteous right hand that upheld the early disciples still holds today's underground believers through danger, exile, and despair.This morning, we lift them before God: men and women risking all for the gospel. May their courage strengthen us, their faith inspire us, and their endurance remind us that no prison can silence praise.10 Global Prayer Points Prayer for persecuted Christians worldwide Prayer for underground believers in restricted nations Prayer for pastors and evangelists in danger Prayer for strength and endurance under persecution Prayer for protection of churches under attack Prayer for believers imprisoned for their faith Prayer for families separated for following Christ Prayer for revival in hostile regions Prayer for global unity and courage in the Church Prayer for religious freedom and hope in sufferingLife ApplicationWhen one part of the Body suffers, the whole Church is called to stand — in prayer, in faith, and in love.DeclarationI will not forget my persecuted brothers and sisters.

Join Koj, TMT & Mayowa on Submarine and A Roach—Nigeria's funniest podcast and Nigeria's #1 comedy podcast—for Episode 234, “Meek & Horny.” It's a high-energy catch-up that zigzags from Lagos banter to Toronto life, politics, and pure nonsense—nimble like Simone Biles.The boys open with a chaotic drink check (green tea, Heineken 0.0, Lasena Water, and tales of expired zero-alcohol beer), plus a medicinal detour into Aboniki and why “stiff” needs context. From there, Koj's moving diaries turn into a love letter to rent-controlled Toronto apartments, outrageous building amenities, and plotting bike rides on waterfront paths.We get an Ibadan classic: the gardener caught doing thirst traps in the boss's pool—a WhatsApp-era parable told in Yoruba (“wé”) about boundaries, class, and comedy. Then it's culture and current affairs: royal family headlines, U.S. threats toward Nigeria, and why media framing around Boko Haram is messy—plus a reminder to value reporting over outrage cycles.Internet culture shows up too: OnlyFans as a business, a Pornhub developer on LinkedIn, and a stray alté pregnancy rumor that somehow invaded dreamland. The episode closes on fatherhood, friendship, apartment hunting, and the eternal tension between being—well, meek & horny.

Afrobeat Rebellion, c'est le titre de l'exposition consacrée à Fela Anikulapo Kuti. Ouverte jusqu'à fin décembre 2025 à Lagos au Nigeria, cette exposition, avec une offre enrichie, est la suite de celle qui a eu lieu à la Philharmonie de Paris en octobre 2022, au musée de la Musique à Paris. Afrobeat Rebellion qui a lieu en plein cœur de la capitale nigériane, présente une multitude de documents d'archives, allant de photographies et d'effets personnels à des enregistrements audio originaux. Avec plus de 350 objets rares, des installations immersives et un riche programme de spectacles, de conférences et de films, ce projet historique retrace l'héritage et le parcours de Fela, de musicien à icône politique. Chapeau feutre sombre et tenue en lin dégradé bleu indigo, Ade Bantu affiche un sourire solaire. Son oncle Tola Odukoya est l'auteur d'une des attractions d'Afrobeat Rebellion : une série de photos en noir et blanc de Fela prises dans les années 60. Des clichés découverts par Ade, il y a 10 ans, chez Tola, son oncle, et par hasard... « On y voit Fela tenant la trompette, son tout premier instrument. Mon oncle a également des photos de Felo posant à côté de sa voiture personnelle. On y voit les difficultés d'un musicien en devenir dans son petit véhicule, où il doit ranger ses instruments et sans compter ses musiciens en passager. Ce sont les débuts d'une carrière emblématique », explique-t-il. Un peu plus loin, Kola Onosoya se tient loin des regards. Il est pourtant le dernier percussionniste de Fela. Toujours membre du groupe Egypt 80, Kola reste marqué par la pensée et l'engagement du roi de l'Afrobeat. Pour Kola, une exposition internationale consacrée à son leader spirituel est une douce revanche. « De son vivant, beaucoup de gens ne croyaient pas en Fela. Mais après sa mort, beaucoup de parents qui n'avaient jamais autorisé leurs enfants à aller voir Fela en concert viennent maintenant aux expositions consacrées à Fela... Et comprennent enfin ce que Fela voulait dire », estime-t-il. Amplifier la voix et la musique non conformistes de Fela, c'est l'objectif d'Abba Makama. Curateurs des films et vidéos projetés dans cette exposition, Abba estime que l'influence de Fela est universelle. Comme celle de l'écrivain Ernest Hemingway ou encore du dramaturge William Shakespeare. « Les Américains vénèrent Hemingway. Les Britanniques vouent un culte à Shakespeare. Nous devons porter Fela Kuti au même niveau, voire plus haut. Parce qu'Hemingway et Shakespeare ont créé des œuvres d'art intemporelles. Fela a créé une musique unique, l'Afrobeat. Mais il était aussi politique. Il était révolutionnaire Le Nigeria célèbre les politiciens comme des rock stars. Les jeunes n'ont pas suffisamment de figures emblématiques vers lesquelles se tourner », regrette-t-il. Et Abba Makama espère ainsi qu'un maximum d'enfants et d'adolescents de Lagos découvriront Fela grâce aux installations immersives d'Afrobeat Rebellion.   À lire aussiLe Jazz de Joe : «Fela Kuti, Rébellion Afrobeat»

Tours géantes autonomes, éco-quartiers, bidonvilles solidaires… Comment dans le contexte du changement climatique et de la raréfaction des ressources, pouvons-nous habiter la planète de manière durable ? Nos invités urbanistes et architectes montrent la voie... (Rediffusion du 20 mars 2025). En quelques décennies, le monde s'est urbanisé. Plus de la moitié d'entre nous habite en ville et la plupart de ceux qui n'y sont pas rêvent d'y vivre un jour. Résultat en Asie : Tokyo, Delhi et Shanghaï dépassent chacune les 30 millions d'habitants. En Afrique, Le Caire, Kinshasa et Lagos comptent déjà plus de 10 millions d'habitants. Pourtant cette manière d'habiter la Terre n'est pas compatible avec les limites planétaires. Il faut énormément de ressources pour construire des logements décents, des infrastructures de transports, garantir un accès à l'énergie, à l'alimentation, à l'eau… le tout dans le contexte du changement climatique qui augmente les températures et les phénomènes météorologiques extrêmes… Alors comment mieux habiter ou plutôt co-habiter avec les autres humains, mais aussi avec l'ensemble des vivants ? Avec - Michel Lussault, professeur à l'ENS à Lyon pour son ouvrage Cohabitons !  paru au Seuil - Cyrille Hanappe, de retour de Mayotte, docteur en architecture, spécialiste de la résilience architecturale en lien avec les questions sociales et environnementales. Directeur scientifique du diplôme de spécialisation et d'approfondissement (DSA) «Architecture et risques majeurs» à l'école d'architecture Paris-Belleville. - Vincent Callebaut, architecte, défenseur de l'écologie urbaine et du climat pour son livre Villes 2050 : 10 actions d'architectures climatiques pour un futur désirable (éditions Eyrolles).

Pepi Sonuga always knew she would become a performer. Even as a little girl in Lagos, Nigeria, watching “Barney” tapes that her flight attendant mother brought home, Pepi felt certain that someday, she'd be the one onscreen. That childhood conviction helped Pepi survive the culture shock of moving to Los Angeles at age 10, teen bullying, and years of grinding in an industry that tried to tell her, over and over, that she was replaceable. With her star now on the rise – with roles in Tyler Perry's “The Six Triple Eight” and Hulu's “Pam & Tommy” – Pepi joins Sophie to reflect on her journey so far, the songs that defined her girlhood, and her ultimate dream: to lift up the country she came from and “the little girl just like me who deserves everything she dreams about, too.” Here are her songs. "I Wanna Be a Rockstar" – Barney "You Gotta Be" – Des'ree "This Is What Makes Us Girls" – Lana Del Rey "The Only Exception" – Paramore "Dreamer" – Charli XCX "Ready" – Tems "Ojuelegba" – Wizkid

Et de quatre pour l'un et de huit pour l'autre… Quatrième mandat pour Alassane Ouattara en Côte d'Ivoire et huitième pour Paul Biya au Cameroun. L'un a 83 ans, l'autre 92, et dans les deux cas, le scrutin présidentiel était quasiment joué d'avance. On commence par la Côte d'Ivoire. En effet, relève Le Monde Afrique, « jamais Alassane Ouattara n'aura traversé une élection avec aussi peu d'obstacles ; jamais, il n'a soulevé aussi peu d'enthousiasme. Durant la journée de vote, les bureaux étaient vides dans de nombreuses localités, tant le match semblait plié d'avance. Le taux de participation atteint à peine les 50%. Un chiffre qui, selon l'opposition, interroge sur la "légitimité" du président. Car, une fois encore, souligne Le Monde Afrique, seuls des "petits" candidats, sans réel poids politique, faisaient face à la puissante et riche machine du parti au pouvoir, le RHDP. Aucun de ses principaux adversaires n'avait été autorisé à se présenter au scrutin présidentiel. Tidjane Thiam, le patron du PDCI, et surtout Laurent Gbagbo, le chef du PPA-CI, rival historique, ont vu leurs candidatures invalidées ». Au Cameroun, Paul Biya, n'a été élu qu'avec un peu plus de 53 % des suffrages. Son principal rival, « Issa Tchiroma Bakary, candidat du Front du changement démocratique, conteste fermement les résultats officiels, relève Afrik.com. Selon lui, son équipe aurait compilé des procès-verbaux démontrant une victoire nette de l'opposition avec près de 55% des voix. Il dénonce un système électoral "entièrement verrouillé par le régime", évoquant des bourrages d'urnes, des intimidations d'électeurs et des coupures d'Internet dans certaines zones rurales ». Où est la démocratie ? Commentaire de Ledjely en Guinée : « ces deux scrutins rappellent que la démocratie, lorsqu'elle se réduit à une simple mécanique électorale, perd tout son sens. Ni la liberté de choix, ni l'alternance, ni la redevabilité ne sont garanties. L'Afrique continue de donner l'image d'un continent où l'élection sert davantage à perpétuer le pouvoir qu'à le légitimer. Cameroun et Côte d'Ivoire offrent ainsi l'illustration parfaite de cette illusion démocratique, pointe encore le site d'information guinéen : des urnes bien surveillées, des chiffres bien alignés, et un peuple tenu à distance du vrai pouvoir. En somme, deux États qui, sous couvert de démocratie, perpétuent un système verrouillé : celui d'une "légitimité électorale" sans véritable consentement populaire ». Pour Aujourd'hui au Burkina Faso, ces ceux scrutins représentent les derniers spasmes d'un système révolu : « en Côte d'Ivoire comme au Cameroun, se joue en vérité la gestation forcée d'un changement générationnel. Le quinquennat de Ouattara et le septennat de Biya sont la der des der pour ne pas dire les mandats de trop ». WakatSéra, toujours au Burkina, s'interroge : « que feront Alassane Ouattara et Paul Biya de leurs victoires, alors que les attentes de justice sociale ne font qu'enfler, tant en Côte d'Ivoire et au Cameroun ? Il n'y a visiblement qu'un seul choix pour les deux : écouter leurs peuples respectifs ». Le mandat de trop… Le site Tunisie numérique ne mâche pas ses mots : au Cameroun, « un régime sclérosé et inefficient, face à des populations qui brûlent de tourner la page pour se forger un autre destin. Biya repart alors que tout le monde le sait malade, même si le bâton de la loi interdit de l'évoquer publiquement. (…) En Côte d'Ivoire, on n'est pas loin du même désenchantement démocratique, poursuit le site tunisien, avec un président qui s'est finalement laissé tenter par un 4e mandat, à 83 ans. (…) Le mandat de trop, c'est un funeste piège que les dirigeants africains, même les plus brillants, évitent rarement, hélas, (…) alors que la jeunesse, comme partout dans le monde, aspire à autre chose. C'est un mal endémique en Afrique, soupire encore Tunisie Numérique. Entre les présidences à vie et les coups de forces des militaires, le continent et sa jeunesse tentent de cheminer. Ne cherchez pas les raisons profondes de notre sous-développement chronique, elles sont là, sous nos yeux ». Les aspirations de la jeunesse Enfin, Jeune Afrique constate justement que la jeunesse africaine, la génération Z, pourrait bien « révolutionner la   politique » : « Antananarivo, Rabat, Dakar, Nairobi, Lagos, Kampala… La génération des 15-25 ans descend dans la rue et bouleverse les codes, pointe le site panafricain. Ultra-connectée, désabusée, sans peur et particulièrement impatiente, cette jeunesse, qui représente 60% de la population du continent, refuse ses conditions de vie, rejette l'ensemble des partis et exige des comptes. Cette génération ira-t-elle plus loin que celles qui l'ont précédée ? ».

Dreaming up creations that resemble a garden of earthly delights, filled with beauty, decay and poetry: Precious Okoyomon is a Nigerian-American artist who embraces dark and light, matter and impermanence. Their new exhibition is called "It's important to have ur fangs out at the end of the world" and the artist tells us why this new work has a fairytale quality, encouraging the viewer to open up to the softness at its heart. We also discuss the wild and urban Brazilian landscapes that inspired a recent installation, and learn how the unique energy of Lagos and its people was distilled into a sound sculpture for the Nigerian pavilion at the Venice Biennale.
