Well, Bonifatius who was defending Africa was recalled to Italy to fight Aetius. In the emantime the Vandals took big parts of Africa and after 433 Aetius had to fight the Burgundians and the Alans. After this campaign the Roman government had already signed a treaty with the Vandals. So I guess, no, he couldn't really do anything about the situation in Africa.
It was lost because the Emperor thought it was more important to fight Aetius and after his return he was occupied with defending Gallia.
