'It's the last currency linked with colonialism'
A group of musicians from across Central and West Africa have launched a protest song and video called Sept Minutes De Chanson Contre Le Franc CFA, or Seven Minutes Against the CFA Franc.
Many former French colonies are still limited in their financial sovereignty because they are still tied to the CFA franc, a currency guaranteed by the French treasury.
Sengalese singer Daba Makourejah told BBC Newsday why she and other musicians are fed up and want change:
It's a reminiscence of a past that we are trying to emancipate ourselves from. Many countries took their independence in the 1960s but this currency stayed. We believe we won't have true independence if our economy is not ours."
