My profound thanks to the Foundation for this recognition. I do so in the name of many who have been part of this collective endeavour. The new complex global landscape means there is now even much more to do to ensure sustainability and resilience for the health of our people.
The African Development Fund has committed a $500M grant to help de-risk investment in the Lobito Corridor, a strategic rail and road network linking Angola, the DRC, and Zambia.
Zambia has allocated 10% of its national resources toward construction of the corridor.

Ons Jabeur on the lack of women’s matches being scheduled for night sessions at Roland Garros, ‘Whoever is making the decision, I don’t think they have daughters… I don’t think they wanna treat their daughters like this’
“Last year you were very vocal about the scheduling of the matches, especially when it comes to night matches and women in night matches. I don’t know if you heard what the president of the French tennis federation said on Monday.. he said ‘We have to do what’s best for the fans.. what the fans would be most interested in.’ It’s still early in the tournament but so far it’s only been men’s matches on the night sessions. I was wondering if you have any thoughts on that.”
Ons: “Same thoughts as I said last year. It’s still sad that we are still seeing this. I keep standing by my words. In Europe, in general, it’s unfortunate for women’s sports in general. Not just for tennis, but in general. I hope whoever is making the decision.. I don’t think they have daughters. I don’t think they wanna treat their daughters like this. It’s a bit ironic, you know. They don’t show women’s sport. They don’t show women’s tennis. Then they ask a question. Yeah, but mostly they watch men. Of course they watch men more, because you show men more. Everything goes together. It’s a shame from the federation. It’s a shame from prime TV that they made such a contract like this. A lot of great players deserve to be there. One of the matches was Naomi and Paula. Such an unbelievable match. They were supposed to be there. Iga and Naomi last year were supposed to be there. A lot of great matches that should’ve been there. Not sure what kind of fans he’s talking about. I know I’m a fan, I would watch that match.”

@AfDB_Group@NnennaNwabufo Thanks VP Nnenna for this initiative and for making the soft power of the AfDB a reality. The same should be pursued with the North African leaders and UMA officials and the Union for the Mediterranean (UFM). Intra regional trade in North Africa is less than 4%. Good Luck
The @AfDB_Group VP, @NnennaNwabufo hosted #ECOWAS Commission Pres. Omar Touray at Bank HQ to discuss the state of integration. #WestAfrica is generating 27% of the continent's GDP, yet intra-regional trade is just 9%.

Pope Francis was the rare leader who made us want to be better people. In his humility and his gestures at once simple and profound – embracing the sick, ministering to the homeless, washing the feet of young prisoners – he shook us out of our complacency and reminded us that we are all bound by moral obligations to God and one another.
Today, Michelle and I mourn with everyone around the world – Catholic and non-Catholic alike – who drew strength and inspiration from the Pope’s example. May we continue to heed his call to “never remain on the sidelines of this march of living hope.”
« A country in Africa which agrees to say: I will defend my national interest, whether it is domestic policy, social political choices, foreign policy, security policy, will always come into clash with the international community, because you are defining your national interest in a way they are not used to. » - Donald Kaberuka #Kwibuka31
#Trump’s new 28% tariffs on #Tunisia will deal a severe blow to the country’s #Aeronautics Components sector, threatening over 17,000 jobs, 80 companies—90% of which rely entirely on exports—€400 million in revenue, and 3.8% of GDP. Yet once again, the Tunisian government has been caught off guard, failing to anticipate this move and leaving the country vulnerable to another economic shock. As the crisis deepens, Kaïs Saïed must stop bowing to Giorgia Meloni’s dictates and start defending Tunisia’s interests before the situation spirals further out of control.
