The Afridigest Week in Review is a must-read weekly recap for Africa-focused founders, executives, and investors, as well as interested observers.

Welcome back! First off: Er, apologies… I took a pretty long and unexpected hiatus since my last post, but I’ll be back in your inboxes regularly throughout the second half of this year, if you’ll still have me. Happy July in advance, and thanks for your understanding & readership. (Thanks especially to everyone who reached out via WhatsApp, Twitter, email, etc. We’re back, as promised. 💪)

If you’re new, welcome (& sorry for the wait) 🙌 — you’ll receive 2 weekly Afridigest emails: a weekly digest like this one (on Mondays) and an article or essay (generally on Saturday evenings Lagos time). For past articles and digests, visit the archive.
