If the African Union was not useless, our leaders would actually come together to build this dam plus a solar farm in the Sahara. The energy will then help us to industrialise much faster and more efficiently.

All African leaders buy into this very important dam project would be a game changer and unifying endeavor.

Africa has always witnessed negative reactions from foreign countries. This is because if AFRICA harnesses its potential, former colonial powers will loose grip on Africa. Africa must face the reality and embark on building The Great Inga Dam. This will be a blessing to Africa as whole. It's now or never. Let us UNITE as SOUTH AFRICA AND NIGERIA HAVE INDICATED willingness to share benefits. Other countries will follow obviously. Long live AFRICA.

I'd rather see maps than all those dam pictures from other places. Particularly, I'm wondering if this is related to the possibility of a dam at the Atlas Mountains that creates an enormous inland sea.

Have the Chinese build it. They love building mega projects.

With the heat, the dam may cause wet bulb temperatures.

[duanenavarre]

Inga 1 and 2 are down 70%, I'd fix them and make a 3rd on par, and hold off on the mega-dam.
avoid the debt trap that is used against most nations.
