An international network led by Latin American drug cartels and the Lebanese Islamist group Hezbollah has chosen West Africa, among the poorest and more corrupted corners of the world, as the nexus for illegal trade in cocaine, oil, counterfeit medicines, pirated music and human trafficking. International law enforcement officials say the profits fuel terrorist activities worldwide.
Through the past few years there’s been a staggering increase in drug trafficking in West Africa — and especially the countries of Guinea-Bissau, Nigeria, Ghana and Guinea — making the region the premier narcotics hub of Africa. The consequences are most visible in Guinea-Bissau, which saw the double assassination of its president and army chief on the same day in early 2009. Crack addiction was an unknown plague until traffickers started to target the country. Since then, hundreds of people living in Bissau’s slums have become addicts. Prostitution increased substantially, consequently generating a new wave of HIV.
