This pdf file has a picture of the African City model on page 46 (Latin America is there as well).

-notice that it has an informal zone and ask yourself what that means (thin informal economy)

-notice that mining takes place nearby. This is a primary level activity. No other city model has something like this. Why would Africa

-Notice it has a a Colonial CBD and a new CBD. It also has a market area which implies a trading area for locals to do business on a very small, informal scale.
