As I keep saying ad infinitum, Africa is not a single unitary region. Different countries in Africa have better grids than others, and different countries in Africa have stronger penetration of digital banking and DBT than others. A country seeing a boom in domestic solar because of government subsidies and policies like Nigeria [0] is different from a country seeing a domestic solar boom because of a collapsing electric grid and regulatory failure like South Africa [1] or Pakistan [2] (not Africa but the same point holds). At best this is an AI generated article, at worst this is someone who is truly misinformed and thinks about Africa this reductively.
