Unleash Africa Podcast

The current COVID-19 pandemic has exposed major cracks in the economic infrastructure of African nations and set them back for years to come. They must focus on building out export industries if they hope to insulate themselves in the future. In this episode, our host John Akhile, author of Unleashed: A New Paradigm of African Trade with the World, critiques African nations' economies and how they were left vulnerable to the COVID-19 pandemic. Sadly, this is not an isolated incident for African nations as throughout the decades, war, disease, and political upheaval have all hindered their growth and economic success. Listen to find out how African countries need to better insulate themselves from these pitfalls moving forward.
