The president of the Africa Finance Corporation (AFC), Samaila Zubairu, states that in championing the continental developmental agenda, African infrastructure must be linked and coordinated to allow smooth trade and development.
“Infrastructure must be approached not as a series of discrete projects, but as integrated systems that link energy, transport, and industry to markets.”
Zubairu adds that the constraint in African Development is not the absence of infrastructure assets, but the fragmentation between them.
Though ports, railways, and roads exist, inefficiencies in connectivity, border processes, and corridor governance prevent these assets from functioning as seamless supply chains.
