Shabos!
Multinational companies planning African expansion would do well to focus on dynamic hubs such as Ethiopia’s industrial parks or Uganda’s agribusiness corridors rather than traditional mining plays in slower-growth markets.
The high performers are pulling ahead
Several economies are defying the regional slowdown through steady reforms, infrastructure investment, and economic diversification:
> Ethiopia stands out with a projected growth of 9.2 per cent in 2026, more than double the regional average and unchanged from last year’s pace.
> Uganda follows at 7.5 per cent, supported by preparations in the oil sector and agricultural modernisation.
> Rwanda comes in at 7.2 per cent, Benin at 7.0 per cent, Côte d’Ivoire at 6.2 per cent, while both the Democratic Republic of Congo and Tanzania are expected to grow at 5.9 per cent.
These countries are successfully translating macroeconomic stability, business-friendly policies, and targeted investments into sustained expansion.

Eritrea has been, in real terms, erased from the map of the world. If Ethiopia will overtake this baren land, it simply amounts to salvaging many souls still calling this orphaned land in the HoA home.

Poor DTT,
IMF which forced Abiy to devalue the Birr and sell rich assets because Ethiopia could not afford to pay $33 million debt interest is now telling you lullabies. Over 60% of Ethiopia today is devastated by war. There is no law and order in most of the country. Anyone who tells you your aconomy will grow at 9% has dtermined you are too stupid to know better!

Toxic -DDT,
IMF is telling you what PP wants to hear.
IMF economic forecasts are unreliable and meaningless .
