Скачать или смотреть Africa's Cost Of Living Crisis: Worst-Hit Cities | Firstpost Africa | N18G

As 2025 draws to a close, the festive spirit across Africa is being overshadowed by a deepening cost-of-living crisis. Despite pockets of macroeconomic recovery, a new report identifying the continent's ten most expensive cities highlights the severe financial pressure on households. Addis Ababa tops the list, followed closely by a heavy South African presence, including Johannesburg and Pretoria, and West Africa’s Accra. The crisis has sparked significant unrest, most notably in Morocco, where "Gen-Z" protesters took to the streets in September and October. Demonstrators criticised the government for prioritising lavish spending on global sporting events, while public health and education sectors remained underfunded. Meanwhile, in South Africa, the continent's largest economy continues to struggle with "sticky" inflation and high unemployment.
