In a career spanning more than 30 years, I have written extensively on African business and economy for various London-based publications. I have also written for the UN publication, Africa Recovery (now Africa Renewal), and the New York based business magazine, The Network Journal. Between 2002-2003 I was a consultant at the Harare-based Mirror Group Newspapers where I was responsible for capacity building and revamping two titles, The Sunday Mirror and the Daily Mirror.
As Editor of Africa Economic Digest, which used to be the leading publication on African business and economy, from 1994-2002, I steered the magazine through stormy times during the incarceration of its proprietor, the late Chief MKO Abiola.
I have also done several news analyses on Africa for BBC World Television, BBC World Service (Radio), UK's Sky TV News. I am also a regular analyst on Al-Jazeera TV and a panelist on Africa Today, Press TV's current affairs programme on Africa, and Africa Wrap, a nightly current affairs programme on Arise News.
In March 1998, I presented a paper on the Importance of Culture to the Development of Tourism in Africa at the ITB, the world's biggest tourism fair, held annually in Berlin, Germany. i also addressed the Blantyre Rotary Club, composed largely of Malawi's business elite, on the Merits and Demerits of Structural Adjustment in Africa, in September 1997.
My 2005 article on China's increasing economic relations with Africa was first runner-up in the Best Published Feature category of the Diageo African Business Reporting Awards. I was, until January 2014, the editor of NewsAfrica, the London-based pan-African newsmagazine.
I hold a Diploma (with distinction) from the London School of Journalism and a post-graduate diploma in mass communications from the London Metropolitan University.
