The only info I am getting is that an African Diplomat said it but nothing else. I want to use it for the Xi Jingping section of my research paper for Political Science, I think it would add a nice bit of “flavour” for introducing the topic of Chinese relations with African states.
Iirc, the first time I saw it it was in a tweet of an African official responding to a British political person when the Brit said something along the lines of “Africa is being enslaved by China” (that was the gist at least). Probably the Brit deleted their tweet afterwards, which also deleted/hid the replies. I’m pretty sure I saw a screenshot of it on GenZedong
