On the streets of Africa

Africa is a continent in constant change and West part of Africa represent a paradigm of it: Ivory Coast, Ghana and Senegal are young and energetic countries in where the past colonial traces witnessed by impressive modernist building are in contrast with the rotten slums and new areas developed for a young emerging middle class. Strong contrast is cohabiting with high growth rate which is, unlike to the past, positive. The vital, pulsing streets of Accra, Abidjan and Dakar are a paradigm of a continent in constant change. However, the instability and a negative political twist are always around the corner and things could be suddenly turned in the wrong directions.
