Not great to link a wiki covering many other countries outside of Africa without specifying What exactly your point is. I read it and none of it surprised me.
You do realize a great deal of the US meddling was prompted by USSR/Russian meddling, right? I’m not giving the US a pass by saying that, but the Cold War and threat of nuclear annihilation is a backdrop to many of these events.
I'm also not going to ignore the issues the countries within Africa deal with that have nothing to do with their past of imperialism or colonialism. I could point to India as a country that reformed into a modern successful nation post colonialism. Nor ought we ignore the vast amounts of financial aid given so often to these countries. It’s a tangled difficult problem.

I suspect you have more ire than foundation.
