It's more like we made promises we didn't keep (like transferring financial aid, investments in infrastructure projects, etc) and instead Western countries still bleed part of Africa's economy dry and I can understand that they're fed up with it. I only hope that China and Russia won't just be a wolf in sheep's disguise, since they're also imperialist and it'd be naive to expect them to help Africa become a strong contender to their economies.
New boss, same as the old boss.
African nations would be better off to continue pushing for an African Union and bring collective bargaining power when dealing with the new and old colonists.
Well, there are plans to create a SWIFT alternative (?)/digital currency for African nations to trade between themselves. They're not simply relying on BRICS, it would seem.
