It has been a great experience to be among the Award Winners of the @EA_YouthForum yesterday at Kololo grounds, Uganda. Thank you Vice President - Uganda🇺🇬. "LUKU-CHAP" team from Tanzania🇹🇿 is in progress making the best product to compete in the global market.

The recent restrictions on access to some of the world's most advanced AI models should serve as a wake-up call for Africa.

In the Age of AI, sovereignty is not just about borders, currencies, or natural resources. It is also about who owns the compute, controls the models, governs the data, and determines access to intelligence.

Africa cannot afford to be merely a consumer of AI. We must invest in our own talent, infrastructure, datasets, languages, and AI ecosystems.
The future belongs to nations that own a stake in the intelligence economy, not just those that use it.

Africa’s greatest opportunity is transforming its massive youthful population into engineers, scientists, manufacturers, innovators, and industrial builders.

• Uber doesn’t sell cars
• Airbnb doesn’t sell homes
• Spotify doesn’t create music

They’re just billion-dollar middlemen.

Here's how you can copy their model (& build a $5,000/month side hustle):

@KennedyMmari I totally agree

[Kenny Mmari Snr. @KennedyMmari]

Kenya announced a corridor. Tanzania captured the cargo. Same case with BRT in Dar es Salaam VS BRT in Nairobi.

LAPSSET remains one of East Africa's most ambitious infrastructure visions and one of its most delayed. Multi-country coordination, incomplete financing, and security exposure across Ethiopia and South Sudan have kept it theoretical where it needs to be operational (but they have made some progress).

Meanwhile Tanzania upgraded what already worked. Building SGR. Expanded Dar es Salaam port. The Central Corridor. And when Uganda needed a pipeline route, Tanga won, not on ambition, but on reliability and execution.

Logistics dominance is won on throughput and trust, not blueprints alone.

If Kenya doesn't accelerate (and I suspect it won’t😅), it won't lose to a better plan, it will lose to a working one and almost surely, Tanzania might eventually become the biggest economy in East Africa. May we live to bear witness.

Uzuri wa kuwepo na uwazi kwenye mwenendo wa matumizi ya nishati (umeme etc), mtumiaji unakuwa na uwezo wa kurekebisha tabia ya utumiaji na kupunguza gharama zako.

Kila mtumiaji wa nishati anastahili kupata taarifa sahihi kwa wakati sahihi za namna anavyotumia umeme.

Did you know that;
Cooking with an e-cooker uses an average of only 2kWh per day, costing just TZS 700?

Imagine that affordability😄.

With awareness campaigns and incentives, reaching the goal of 80% clean cooking adoption by 2034 is achievable!

[Science for Africa Foundation @SciforAfrica]

As global research funding tightens and priorities shift inward, Prof @sam_skmuchina makes a clear case: Africa’s development, competitiveness, and resilience depend on investing in African scientists to solve African challenges. Science cannot remain an external import, it must be owned, led, and funded from within.

🎧 This conversation on the #EchoesOfEvidence podcast asks what real research leadership in Africa should look like.

Africa shouldn’t fear Africa.

In the @FT, Mo Ibrahim argues it’s time for the continent to invest in itself: with stronger governance, domestic value generation, and African capital backing African potential.
