In “The Invisible People: How a Quarter of Humanity Can Thrive in Africa by 2050”, Phuthuma Nhleko draws on experience to explore how Africa can harness its growing population to shape a more prosperous and influential future.

"What if Africa's greatest challenge is also its greatest opportunity?"

That is the question former MTN Group Chief Executive Officer Phuthuma Nhleko asks in “The Invisible People: How a Quarter of Humanity Can Thrive in Africa by 2050”.

Rather than focus on Africa's problems, the book offers a practical vision for a continent preparing for one of the biggest population shifts in history.

By 2050, Africa's population is expected to reach 2.5 billion people, meaning one in four people in the world will be African.
