The text from the video is taken directly from the French textbook for the class I teach and the final question is indeed used to get students to try and figure out how it is that countries in Africa, Asia, and the Americas speak French. Luckily for me, my students are pretty bright and the information in your comment comes up and is discussed in detail, from both perspectives.
@Microglia1 "La colonisation a été une aventure humaine. Comme toute aventure humaine, elle a charrié de la boue et de l'or. Pourquoi ne faudrait-il prendre que la boue et ne pas retenir les pépites?" Leopold Sedar Senghor, Now Microglia1, shut up. An African.
@Microglia1 You don't know me : online or offline i would do the exact same! I don't even see how what i answered you was "tough" anyway either haha. Because Africans themselves value their French language, whatever way we came to be in contact with it.
Can u imagine how French is spoken in these places? How about forced invasion, genocide, and forced conversion to Christianity?

@AuxaneD You're only tough on the internet. I dare you to say it to my face. What does an African has anything to do with it?

@AuxaneD You're an idiot to even assume I'm black. I'm not.
