Lumumba’s Africa focuses on the past and current issues affecting the African continent; Filmed amidst the beautiful landscapes of Kenya and hosted by Professor P.L.O. Lumumba, the show looks at the many dichotomies of Africa: why are some of the economies thriving while others stall; why conflicts emerge and refuse to die down, and why despite colonialism being ‘gone’, it still ruins the prosperity of nations.
African Airlines
On this episode of Lumumba’s Africa, Professor takes flight into the high-stakes world of air travel and aviation across the continent.

World War III and Africa
Today, on this episode of Lumumba’s Africa, the Professor examines Africa’s position in an increasingly fractured world – from proxy wars and resource grabs to the weaponization of debt and the scramble for critical minerals.
