Video Description
A $11.5 million cashew processing plant is being built in Péni, Burkina Faso—not for the nut, but for the fruit no one cares about. For decades, millions of cashew apples rotted in silence, wasted year after year. Now suddenly, they’re at the center of a national transformation. Why would a country bet its future on a discarded fruit? What’s the real plan behind this factory that the West is too naive to understand? As the African Diaspora saying goes, "I am because we are, and we are because I am."
