Detailed explanation-1: -Among the conflicts that cut across country reports were electoral violence and land-based conflict, while salient causes or factors contributing to conflict were ethnic/ religious diversity, inequality and poverty.
Detailed explanation-2: -Decreased investment, trade, and productivity, along with human and physical capital destruction (including through forced displacement and devastating effects on education and health care), are some of the key channels through which conflict impedes economic growth.
Detailed explanation-3: -The Decolonization of Africa had far-reaching consequences on the economy, resulting in weakened growth. It was often marred with political turmoil, unrest, and revolts. Lack of infrastructure, unorganized labour, and hordes of other related issues impoverished the African states beyond imagination.
Detailed explanation-4: -In order to gain power, Europeans encouraged Africans to fight against each other. New political boundaries caused ethnic groups to clash. This has led to ethnic and political unrest in Africa today. There have been over 50 ethnic conflicts in Africa since WWII as a result of the colonial lines drawn by Europeans.
