U.S. Military Is Building a $100 Million Drone Base in Africa


From Citizens for Legitimate Government (CLG):

U.S. Military Is Building a $100 Million Drone Base in Africa | 29 Sept 2016 | Agadez, Niger, almost blends into the cocoa-colored wasteland that surrounds it. Only when you descend farther can you make out a city that curves around an airfield before fading into the desert...U.S. military documents reveal new information about an American drone base under construction on the outskirts of the city. The long-planned project - considered the most important U.S. military construction effort in Africa, according to formerly secret files obtained by The Intercept through the Freedom of Information Act - is slated to cost 100 million, and is just one of a number of recent American military initiatives in the impoverished nation.
