Many, myself included, have been very critical of the African continent. So much so that Egypt’s President recently spoke out against it.

The following information is from Africa News.

Egyptian President Abdel Fattah al-Sissi recently met with French President Emmanuel Macron to discuss the major regional crisis and the state of human rights affairs. During the encounter, President al-Sissi called out Western media’s bias towards Africa’s political leaders, who happen to be of African and Arab descent.

He stated the following:
