Rapper Akon has revealed plans for a futuristic $6 billion city in his Senegal homeland modelled on Black Panther's Wakanda.
The R&B star, who boasts two multi-platinum albums, told a news conference on Monday he had laid the first stone for the city in the Atlantic Ocean village of Mbodiene, around 60 miles south of the capital Dakar.
The solar-powered Akon City will offer hotels, a university, hospitals, business and leisure centres including a casino, as well as movie studios, all featuring futuristic designs by architect Hussein Bakri, with African sculptures for inspiration.

I think he should invest all his money on this wonderful idea.
Can we finally carry out the Monroe-Lincoln transfer plan for former African slaves? Liberia was the plan, but Senegal will do.
Hold on. Amazon, Microsoft, Apple, Goodyear, AT&T, Walmart, and Facebook could finance this with their pocket change. I say they should put their money where their mouths are and back this idea.
Bokassa always wanted to look Napoleonic, whether he was dressed as a general, a president, or an emperor.
If you want to know more about Bokassa, may I recommend a podcast called “Dictators?” In June and July, they did two episodes about the man who would be the Central African Emperor.

Good for him - he’s participating in creating and building something, which is a lot harder than endlessly criticizing and tearing down what others have built.
“This sounds like a innovative investment scam. They will be demanding US companies “invest” in the scam or they will labeled RACIST.”
Yep. If it happens it will be another shakedown of the the American corporate piñatas.
It is smart of him to request lots of sculptures to be made. Then Antifa and BLM will have something to tear down when they riot.
hey, his money.
IF they had the “superior technology” what’d they do with it before whites arrived?
We wuz kangz n sheet!
mad Maxine seemed to think it was a real place.....but then again she is in a different world anyway.
Oh it will, since there aren't any.
Richburg, a capable and well-regarded Black Washington Post reporter assigned to Africa, found that whites and foreigners were exempt from the misery and oppression of Africans by Africans. Treated humanely and with respect by Africans, Richburg realized that he was privileged because of his American accent and passport. As Richburg concluded, "Thank God my nameless ancestor, brought across the ocean in chains and leg irons, made it out alive," he concludes. "Thank God I am an American."
As for Akon's ludicrous scheme, most Africans will suspect that he is working a scam of some sort. And no one with significant cash will invest because it cannot pass even minimal due diligence.
Finally! A place with flying cars.
I cannot wait.
Akon ‘ran into a lot of African-Americans that didn’t really understand their culture,’ the 47-year-old said.
Cool.
Just get blm’s mailing list for your first colonists.
You can join the other all-black paradises like Haiti and Zimbabwe.
>>With him as mayor no doubt.<<
No, the leader will be selected like all great civilizations in modern times have done so.
A fight to the death.
Note: I think Trump could take biden.
I wonder if they’ll have it hidden and shielded...
