No More USD in Africa?

[Senkusha]

I just saw that the entire content of Africa said no more United States Dollars!

Technology is going to become VERY expensive.

"According to media reports earlier this month, the President of Kenya, William Ruto, has called for African leaders to move away from using the USD for intra-Africa trade, and to support the pan-African payments and settlement system, launched in 2022."

They are moving away from USD but will have another payment.

Unfortunately, it's not going to work in my opinion. If they had backed and supported Muammar Muhammad Abu Minyar al-Gaddafi when he pushed for this years ago when he was alive before he was killed in 2011 by USA and NATO-backed rebel forces, this dream will be very difficult for African countries to actualize it.

He was killed by USA and NATO forces? That sounds awfully convenient... to keep the Dollar as Supreme.

How would it change Africa do you think? What are the pros & cons to having USD & NOT having USD there?
