Africa's economic landscape is undergoing a seismic shift, with projections from the African Development Bank's Macroeconomic Performance and Outlook (AfDB MPO) report spotlighting rapid expansions across several countries. The top 10 fastest-growing African economies between 2025 and 2026 paint a picture of resilience, reform, and resource-driven resurgence. South Sudan leads the continent with a staggering 34.4% projected GDP growth, fueled by a rebound in oil production and renewed peace efforts. Years of political instability had suppressed output, but recent developments suggest stabilisation is unlocking long-dormant economic potential. This exceptional rate, however, also reflects a base effect—growth rebounding from a low starting point.
