The only ones that get close are the ones on the ground. With the exception of Congo (French speaking), nearly every major city has an English language newspaper online. Yes, they are heavily biased, but the headlines give one at least some degree of information about what is going on. Twitter is also a goldmine for getting a view of Africa, grisly as that can be (municipalities will livestream corporal punishment at times). I tend to use: http://www.congoindependant.com/ , https://dailytimes.ng/category/news/ , https://dailynews.co.tz/tags/local.aspx , https://twitter.com/chismaiocity?lang=en (example, some NSFL content there recently, fyi) , and https://www.aljazeera.com/ (better than BBC at least) .

Related: Some fun questions I like to lead with when discussing Africa and the coming miracle there are:

Where is the Great Wall of Africa/Nigeria? Hint: It's not on dry land ;)

In numbers of Californias, how many people will live in Kinshasa by 2099?

How fast is the bullet train from Nairobi to Mombasa? Who financed it?
