|b The article debates an issue related to the ITC sector in Africa: is there a genuine African ITC industry? To what extend we can consider the new tech companies “new colonialism” agents? In order to explore the very essence of the question, author tended to connect the Africa’s colonial experience with the much newest aspect of this phenomenon. There were many variations across sub-Saharan Africa, but the pattern of exploitation was basically the same. Europeans arrived with power and technology, and left with goods and profits. Behind such hopes, however, lies a familiar anxiety over ownership and control. What if Big Tech, far from being a liberating force, turned out instead to be a new kind of colonialist? With a combination of online technology and strategic offline infrastructure - including warehouses and fleets of motorbikes - Jumia promises an expanding African consumer class the opportunity to have goods delivered directly to their homes. However, the author keeps arguing, that the squabble over Jumia’s origins remains, for some, a distraction. But to others it is born of deep, unhealed wounds and is part of a larger conversation about appropriation, race and ownership. Colonial powers spent centuries extracting wealth from the continent, destroying homegrown systems of government and depriving it from the human resources and capital formation on which other states have built success.
