Neo-Colonialism: The Last Stage of Imperialism
In Neo-colonialism: The Last Stage of Imperialism, the flags may have changed, but the power still flows from the same hands. With surgical precision and revolutionary fire, this book unveils how economic control, foreign aid, and multinational influence have replaced the old chains of empire with new, invisible shackles. If independence is declared but decisions are made abroad, can freedom truly be said to exist? It is a searing exposé of betrayal cloaked in diplomacy, where the promise of sovereignty is bartered for dependency. Through every page, the reader is challenged to ask: who profits when the colonizer never leaves—but merely changes form?

The Looting Machine: Warlords, Oligarchs, Corporations, Smugglers, and the Theft of Africa’s Wealth
The Looting Machine exposes a brutal paradox at the heart of Africa’s richest resource states: how nations teeming with oil, diamonds, and minerals can remain shackled by poverty, violence, and decay. With the urgency of investigative reportage and the gravity of a political thriller, the book maps a continent-wide system where global corporations, corrupt elites, and shadowy networks turn natural wealth into a curse. Can a land so rich be so poor by accident—or is the suffering by design? As veins of gold and crude are drained from beneath the soil, this powerful account compels readers to question who truly profits and who is left to bleed. It is a story of power without accountability and prosperity built on the silence of the exploited.
