NAIROBI, Kenya - July 20, 2025 - PRLog -- David Okiki Amayo Jr., the visionary Founder & Chairman of Africa's Sovereign Development Trust (ASDT), today unveiled ambitious plans to fortify the continent's security infrastructure.
This transformative endeavour is diligently led by Mr. Amayo Jr., who personally holds the intellectual property and registered trademarks for ASDT and its comprehensive portfolio of brands. Noted for his strategic insights and foresight, including his instrumental role in establishing Kenya's innovative Hustler Fund, he is now spearheading efforts to establish a United African Defence Force (UADF) and a harmonised approach for a unified African maritime border and Defence architecture. The leadership is further enhanced by collaboration with key strategic stakeholders from around the globe, including China's People's Liberation Army, The Russian Expeditionary Corps, the African Union, and the Armies of all African nations, underscoring the truly global and collaborative nature of this essential undertaking.
These pivotal initiatives will be officially launched at The Sandton Symposium 2025, scheduled for November 2025 in Johannesburg, South Africa. The Symposium marks a critical step towards enhancing Africa's sovereign defence capabilities and securing its vast territories.
Under his leadership, ASDT, operating through its Kenyan management company, The Ndege Group Nominees Limited, is committed to implementing the UADF over the next 60 months through the systematic harmonisation of existing military agreements continent-wide. This monumental undertaking is robustly supported by accredited ethical investors and leverages ASDT's formidable OmniGaza platform, currently operating on a supercomputer and planned for a quantum computing upgrade. OmniGaza ensures unparalleled transparency and rigorous accountability in all strategic endeavours. The UADF's singular role will be to diligently protect Africa's continent and islands through a comprehensive, decade-long programme. This includes developing state-of-the-art training facilities, procuring advanced equipment, and integrating sophisticated strategic systems to optimise asset protection, enhance border control, bolster continental security, and address emerging threats.
ASDT stands ready to integrate EUR 5 billion in strategic capital for 2025-2027. This pivotal capital is earmarked to operationalise its comprehensive suite of brands, institutionalise the Trust, establish founding multilateral treaties, and execute its continental mergers and acquisitions programme under the ASDT umbrella. This target is not only highly achievable but indeed modest when logically compared to established development finance entities like the African Development Bank, World Bank, and IMF, which currently transact and hold portfolios far exceeding this figure. This initial capital is instrumental given ASDT's estimated EUR 350 billion portfolio value from 2025-2035 and the multi-trillion euro market size and potential for sustainable development and security across Africa.
Following discussions at The Sandton Symposium, ASDT will systematically deploy its diverse portfolio of brands and initiatives. These include Ndege Aerospace (cargo, VIP, telecoms, defence, featuring Ndege Aerodrome, Africa's first aerospace aerotropolis), Ndege MarketPlace (blockchain-powered e-commerce for African specialist goods), and The Ndege Foundation (development finance fund and real estate investment trust supporting transformative projects such as East & Central Africa's first public aquarium).
ASDT welcomes multinationals, security agencies, militaries from Africa and allies, and key continental stakeholders to join in shaping Africa's secure future. Request an invitation to The Sandton Symposium 2025 here.
