Listen "Jerotich Seii - China in Africa: Progress or Plunder?"
Episode Synopsis
China in Africa: Progress or Plunder?
They call it development. hosts Waweru Njoroge and Ndu Okoh sit down with Jerotich Seii — humanitarian, social justice advocate, and active citizen to rip open the myth of China’s “partnership” with Africa.
From ports in Djibouti to debt-laden railways in Nairobi, Jerotich asks what no leader will: are we selling our sovereignty for shiny infrastructure, letting forests fall for freight corridors, and locking future generations into chains disguised as contracts?
This is not just about bricks and steel. It’s about power, identity, and the dangerous new scramble for Africa — one where the price tag is hidden, but the damage is permanent.
Lagos to Lamu. Cape Town to Cairo. This is Panel 54, a global perspective through an African lens.
