Top Comments of this video!! :3
The very fact that the word 'Africa' is used in the project as if its a country and not an entire continent was already a sign it would fail, no matter how big the project would be, its comparison and impact should have been compared to the specific country it would be built, not to the whole of Africa, as if the continent is one big village square waiting for innovation from externals.๐คฆโโ

This project was doomed from the moment the imagery of what Akon envisioned to be his ideal African city was revealed. This is a top-down vanity project. There's no sense of community to be seen in the garish, comic book architecture. It's a city designed like an amusement park, rather than a place to call home--unless you're an egomaniacal entertainment mogul with scant understanding of economics.

I will never forget when Akon, during an interview, said that China had given a 1 billion dollar loan to build the solar city. But instead of saying "the organization now has a lot of money to buy the equipment" he said "I have one billion dollars, I'm rich!!". I Freudian slip that very few people (if any) caught.

11:45 M-pesa is mainly a Kenyan,rather than an African thing. At least 80% of all mpesa transactions are Kenyan, and Vodafone are still trying to spread into Neighbouring Tanzania/Uganda.
Saying that Akon should've tried to use M-pesa in Senegal, a half a continent away, without the financial infrastructure kenya has, is very under-informed
