French Media Reveal Jeffrey Epstein’s Network Expanding Across Africa

French newspapers Le Monde and Le Figaro have reported that the notorious American sex offender and trafficker Jeffrey Epstein’s influence extends into several African countries. According to these reports, he had established a complex network involving presidents, ministers, and intermediaries to expand his operations across the continent.

Documents related to Epstein reveal that Karim Wade, son of former Senegalese President Abdoulaye Wade, is mentioned at least 500 times. French media have identified him as one of Epstein’s key facilitators in Africa.

In Ivory Coast, Venina Kieta, the niece of the country’s president, has been cited as Epstein’s contact for organizing official meetings, securing security privileges, and signing contracts for the sale of Israeli surveillance systems. Exchanged messages between the parties also refer to the trafficking of girls under 25 years old.

The reports further state that Epstein previously attempted to purchase a palace in Morocco through the mediation of a former French culture minister. He also sought to improve his image in Africa by engaging in so-called charitable activities. Epstein traveled to Africa in 2002 alongside Bill Clinton.
