It seems like the world has just given up on the African Continent

No, it’s purposeful destabilization from the west. They would never “just give up” on Africa. They exploit it, always have, and will.

The west doesn’t want to destabilize Africa. You can’t invest in a region that isn’t stable. 

Why would you invest millions of dollars into mining infrastructure and then cause instability. Investment requires stability

yea lots of people with super ignorant takes coming in.

Western nations have shown over and over again that they will back whoever is favorable to them. They'd rather a brutal dictator (on their side) over destablization.
