During his previous term, Trump's approach to Africa was often criticised, with some African leaders now cautious about his return. His policy may focus on countering China's influence in Africa, especially in trade and technology. Trump is expected to scrutinise aid, favouring US interests, while some Africans view his directness positively. Leaders from Nigeria, Ethiopia, and Zimbabwe have extended congratulations, while South Africa's president hopes for a continued beneficial relationship. Analysts predict Trump's approach to Africa will be pragmatic, driven by US benefits over other concerns.
