The thing is with African cities (bar few countries) is that they have picturesque skylines but on the ground, its a different story.

You walk around the CBD in Nairobi. and it is clear that the majority of buildings are old as well as the streets are unkempt and garbage is prominent. Furthermore, past the CBD nearly every subsaharan capital's suburbs is similar to Mogadishu but with more paved roads probably.


This is Nairobi's CBD from street level. You can see the ageing buildings.

If a country has a good institutions their economic growth will skyrocket. As a result of this they might attract investment called FDI "forgein direct investment". If you compare to africa to develop countries they are 100-300 years behind in terms of development, you can get very good returns on your investment in Africa.
