Decolonising Africa's Infrastructure: Why Roads Still Lead to Ports and Not to People


Overview

A bold manifesto for a continent ready to build on its own terms. From ports that prioritize exports over people to railways that echo colonial blueprints, Africa's infrastructure remains trapped in a legacy it never chose. In this groundbreaking book, engineer, reformist, and political thinker Dr. Apollo Buregyeya dismantles the myth of neutral development. He shows how roads, bridges, power lines, and data cables are not just technical assets, but political decisions - choices that determine who moves, who trades, and who matters. Blending sharp analysis, real-world case studies, and visionary proposals, Decolonising Africa's Infrastructure offers a new blueprint. One rooted in local industry, knowledge sovereignty, climate resilience, and citizen dignity. From digital sovereignty to climate-proof roads, from participatory public works to localized supply chains, this book maps a future where infrastructure is not built for donors but for Africans, by Africans. Whether you are an engineer, policymaker, student, or concerned citizen, this book will challenge what you think infrastructure is, and what it could become. Infrastructure is not just concrete. It is power. And it's time to take it back.
