Why Investing In Africa’s Entertainment Industry Is A Worthwhile Financial Decision 

By Melvin Tarlue  (Writer's email: tarluemelvin12@gmail.com) The entertainment industry in Africa, especially music and movie, present enormous investment opportunities.  However, it's still difficult to make investors understand why they need to focus attention also on the entertainment industry on the continent.

Of course, there ...
