Luanda to Overtake Lagos

Luanda is projected to become sub-Saharan Africa's largest city by 2050, surpassing Lagos, according to World Bank analysis per Bloomberg reports.

This demographic shift reflects rapid urbanization in Angola, driven by economic growth and migration from rural areas, as noted by the Real Media Group.

The population boom comes amid ongoing challenges in urban planning and infrastructure development, with Bloomberg highlighting Angola's planning problems.
