It has been a long time since the name of Rama Yade has resonated in France.. And for good reason, the former Secretary of State in charge of Human Rights and then Sports of Nicolas Sarkozy, who celebrates its forty-seventh birthday this Wednesday, December 13, continues his career on the other side of the Atlantic. According to information reported by our colleagues at Young Africa, the former wife of Joseph Zimet would have been appointed Africa director of the influential American think tank Atlantic Council.
Quite a promotion for the former Secretary of State for Human Rights under the presidency of Nicolas Sarkozy, who said “proud to have the opportunity to act at the global level in a decisive period for the African continent and its American and European partners”. An exceptional destiny for the woman who became the first woman of sub-Saharan origin to become a member of a French government, in 2007, underline our colleagues at Young Africa. However, if she is living her American dream, little Jeanne’s mother had admitted to L’Express regret France. “I miss the country a lot.”
Rama Yade, to the rescue of singer Gims
The sequence made the rounds on social networksx. Guest of the show Ouihustlethe singer Gims had supported a conspiracy theory, which suggested that the Egyptian peoples, at the time of the pyramids, were already using electricity. “Africa is Wakanda, damn it’s the future (…) at the time of the empire of Kush, (ancient Egypt, editor’s note) there was electricityhe assured. The pyramids that we see, at the top there is gold. Gold is the best conductor for electricity… They were damn antennas! People had electricity. The Egyptians, the knowledge they hadit’s beyond comprehension.”
If the singer’s comments were quickly mocked on the Internet, Rama Yade intervened to defend the interpreter of J’me tire. In a video published on the networks, Nicolas Sarkozy’s former minister declared: “There may have been no electricity on the pyramids but there was much better than that. Perhaps it is not the letter of what you said that is important but the spirit”. A speech aimed at denouncing the superior attitude of Europeans towards the African continent, which is nevertheless recognized as the cradle of humanity.
