This weekend, Boko Haram crossed into Cameroon and kidnapped 10 Chinese workers building a bridge. China has massive infrastructure projects all over Sub-Saharan Africa. China funds the projects and expects payments in natural resources. To doubly reap the benefits, the labor and materials for the projects are Chinese as well.
In Cameroon, China is building a deep water port to siphon resources from all of West and Central Africa. It stands to gain oil, minerals, and timber at cut rate prices.
