Akon’s $6 Billion ‘Wakanda-inspired’ city in Senegal officially SCRAPPED after just one building

Senegal has scrapped Akon’s $6 billion Akon City project, inspired by Wakanda, due to delays and lack of progress. Announced in 2020, the tech-focused city on 136 acres in Mbodiene saw only one building completed. The government has replaced it with a smaller, privately funded $1.2 billion tourism project.
