Colonialism and Development Outcomes

A recent study in Cameroon shows that British colonialism had better outcome for economic development than French colonization. This confirms what many ordinary people in Africa already know. French speaking African countries are among some of the most impoverished and conflict-ridden than English-speaking ones. See Chad, CAR, DRC, Ivory Coast, Niger, etc. Compare these to Nigeria, Uganda, Kenya, Zimbabwe, Zambia, etc. No wonder Paul Kagame of Rwanda had to cut the French umbilical cord in order to work for the development of his country. France sucks the blood of French-speaking African countries. It has not had much luck extending its rapaciousness to English-speaking African countries.
