By Dr. Madu Obiora.
Africa’s logistics corridors – from east to west and north to south – are receiving infrastructure investments, with billions being spent on transport corridors, high-speed rail networks, and hydropower projects, among others.
There’s the Lobito Corridor, which connects Angola’s Atlantic coast to the copper and cobalt mining regions of the Democratic Republic of Congo and Zambia; Egypt’s High-Speed Rail Network, which will run thousands of kilometres to connect major cities, ports, and industrial zones; while there is also a planned hydropower project on the Congo river that is set to become the largest hydroelectric project in the world.
