Pope Leo XIV Condemns Resource Colonisation in Equatorial Guinea Visit

Pope Leo XIV arrived in Equatorial Guinea on Tuesday, condemning the colonisation of Africa's oil and mineral resources and calling the global economy that prioritises profit 'a killer.' The pontiff met with President Teodoro Obiang Nguema Mbasogo, who has ruled since 1979 and been accused of widespread corruption. Despite oil wealth accounting for nearly half of GDP, over half of the country's two million people live in poverty, with revenues enriching the ruling family rather than the population.

Pope Leo Denounces Africa's Mineral 'Colonisation' During Historic Equatorial Guinea Visit

Pope Leo arrived in Equatorial Guinea on the final leg of his Africa journey, becoming the first pontiff to visit since 1982. In a pointed address, he denounced the "colonisation" of Africa's minerals and "lust for power" in a nation ruled by Africa's longest-serving president Teodoro Obiang Nguema Mbasogo since 1979. Despite oil wealth accounting for nearly half of GDP, over half of the population lives in poverty, with rights groups documenting how revenues have enriched the ruling family.

Centre Reviews Colonial-Era Legacy of 'Civil Lines' as Part of Decolonisation Exercise

The Centre is reviewing the colonial-era framework of Civil Lines residential areas as part of a decolonisation exercise. PM Narendra Modi had in January asked ministers and top bureaucrats to identify colonial-era practices and suggest alternatives with Indian roots. Civil Lines, developed in the 19th century as exclusive enclaves for senior colonial officials, exist in Delhi and several states including UP, Rajasthan, Haryana, Punjab, MP, Bihar and Maharashtra.
