African Bank President calls for the US to up its investments in Africa via SABCNewsOnline

was speaking in New York at an event that brought together investors and business practitioners for a roundtable discussion titled ‘A New Economic Vision for Africa’.

“If you’re looking for where to be, that’s the place to be because of the population, because of rising consumer demand and just because of the sheer size of what the African economy will look like with the continental free trade area that brings together economies worth $3.3-trillion, who wouldn’t be excited about that?”

He explained that there was a lot of scope for investment in regional connectivity infrastructure development, particularly to give support to the African Continental Free Trade Area; in ICT and international services. But it’s agriculture that he argues should be a powerhouse sector throughout the continent. The bank itself has invested $24-billion over 10-years in business-minded agriculture development.

When the US interferes then Africa says 'we' can sort own problems, we don't need the West.. 😂

I never even knew there is a bank called 'African Bank', what is it doing....or ... rather ask correctly.... what does it not do?

😭😭😭 It this coming from the president of the highest instution in Africa😭😭 instead of calling on US. Africa should create an environment conjusive to grow their own investments and also create opportunities for its locals to be able to partner US on equal opportunities. 🙏

Really? Why not African countries? One thing that realDonaldTrump does best and I like him for is inward economic development. _AfricanUnion should encouraging Africans to invest in themselves than calling for investment elsewhere. Copy realDonaldTrump policies and prosper.

Oh so now they want investment but they blame the 'west' for or the problems in africa
