BAKU, Azerbaijan, October 17. No one can hinder us from continuing our struggle, the famous political activist Kemi Seba, who opposes France's colonial policy and fights for the rights of African peoples, wrote on X after his release from arrest in France, Trend reports.
"Those who want to halt us will have to wait. We are disrupting their plans. Our only goal is the complete decolonization of the African continent and its diaspora. We are fighting for our rights, and no one can stop us from continuing our cause," the publication says.
Kemi Seba was detained by police while dining at a restaurant in Paris on October 14. He was released today.
An international conference on the policies of French neo-colonialism in Africa was held on October 3 under the organization of the Baku Initiative Group. Kemi Seba took part in the conference.
Kemi Seba is known as one of the leaders symbolizing the movement for African independence, sovereignty, and the fight against neo-colonial powers. He is also one of the main critics of French neocolonialism. Kemi Seba was born in 1981 in Strasbourg. He was blacklisted by France for openly and strongly criticizing and denouncing the damage caused by France's nefarious colonial policies to African countries as well as overseas territories still under French control.
France arrested Seba several times to try to silence him but, failing to do so, stripped him of his French citizenship.
