Within the next 15 years, annual consumer spending in African cities is expected to triple to 2.2 trillion US dollars. And in just over a decade sub-Saharan Africa is expected to host five mega-cities with populations of 10 million people or more. In this episode of Capital connection we investigate urbanisation in sub-Saharan Africa, the challenges and necessary steps needed in order to create a future where cities blossom to become centres of education, innovation, commerce, arts & culture and self-development; joined by Munachi Okoye founder & CEO, Mcore from Nigeria and Istell Orton Senior Urban planner and Gareth Haysom, Researcher, UCT African centre for cities from South Africa.
