Across the Mahgreb, the Sahel and West Africa, France is being forced out of Africa after decades of post-colonial control. As French troops exit Mali, Burkina Faso, and Niger, Russia's Wagner Group moves in.

Today's Newsmaker is France's retreat from Africa. Guests: Beverly Ochieng Francophone Africa Security Analyst with the Control Risks Consultancy Abdelkader Abderrahmane Peace and Security Analyst Paul Melly Africa Programme Consulting Fellow at the Chatham House
