Thre will be a brief upswing while the west pumps money into the country to try to give it a fresh start, but the old habits of theft and confiscation of assets will resurface and the country will continue its downward slide.
The journey has no end until the people come up with a jolt as they crash into the back of the cave wall.
The new government will beg whites to come back. They will give the farms back to the original white owners, but only the stupid or desperate will return because they know that as soon as it is all prosperous again, the politics of black envy will kick in again and they will steal it all back again.

I don't know, seems the somali's got a bit better at being pirates! (At least for a few years). And they have all become quite adept at killing each other!!!
