“The problem with Africa is that our belief system is wrong.” — Vusi Thembekwayo South African entrepreneur and investor Vusi Thembekwayo compared Zambia's $50 billion GDP with the rapid rise of Anthropic, the AI company behind Claude, arguing that a startup founded in 2021 has created economic value comparable to that of a resource-rich nation in just a few years. Speaking on the pace of global innovation, Thembekwayo said Africa's greatest challenge is not a lack of resources, but a lack of belief and ambition. He argued that while others are building globally competitive companies at remarkable speed, Africa often spends too much time discussing possibilities instead of executing them. According to Thembekwayo, the continent's future will depend not only on its natural wealth, but on adopting the mindset needed to build businesses and industries at global scale. --- This video is credited to VT

The presidential convoy of Recep Tayyip Erdoğan, moving through Addis Ababa on Tuesday during his official state visit, sparked conversation online about the beauty of Ethiopia and how Africa’s cities are still perceived globally. Erdoğan received a grand welcome from Abiy Ahmed at the National Palace, marking his first visit to Ethiopia in 11 years and coinciding with the 100th anniversary of the Turkish Embassy in Addis Ababa. Beyond the politics, the viral reaction focused on the city itself. Modern, clean, and green, Addis Ababa challenged outdated stereotypes - drawing comparisons to major global cities across Europe, Asia, the Middle East, and the United States. For many viewers, the convoy didn’t just showcase diplomacy; it reminded them that Africa’s cities are dynamic, developed, and globally comparable, far beyond the tired narratives often attached to the continent. Beyond Addis Ababa, which other African city do you think doesn't get enough credit for its modern infrastructure and beauty?
