Ahead of the election in the United States, some Africa analysts say the new U.S. administration must pour resources, investments and goodwill into a continent Washington often has neglected. The two major U.S. presidential candidates, former President Donald Trump, and Vice President Kamala Harris are in the last week of their tight race.
