Food Diplomacy: “We both like rice”! Checking climate resilient rice seeds at @AfricaRice with US Secretary of State @SecBlinken. The @AfDB_Group and VACS of @StateDept will work together to support farmers in Africa. @SecYellen
Happy birthday @akinwale_cfi. Your passion for agribusiness is infectious and commendable. All the best today and always. From a big fan of your work, another Akin.
My amazing cousin, @Tiwalolu, got married last week. Apart from the reminder of how much fun weddings can be, also got a clear reminder of how quickly one has migrated from those that arrive for the after party, to those they usher away for the real party to start.
Thank you very much Your Excellency President @MBuhari for your incredible warmth, hospitality and honor accorded to me when you received me. You made me so proud as a Nigerian. Proudly Nigerian! Proudly African!🙏🏼
Thank you very much Your Excellency President @MBuhari for your unflinching support. I am delighted, humbled and greatly encouraged that the nation, under your leadership, stands solidly with me. I am extremely grateful Sir. 🙏🏼@CyrilRamaphosa@AUC_MoussaFaki

Imagine if, on account of the fact that there are Blacks in the US, Africans Countries write to say that the American President’s Senate ‘acquittal’ should be made subject of an independent investigation?https://t.co/E4AhHzTUp8 via @bpolitics

“In 2015, when you were to be elected for the first term, I wrote to all African leaders, recommending you for the position. I didn’t say because you were a PDP Minister, and I belonged to the @OfficialAPCNg, so I would withhold my support.”—@MBuhari to @akin_adesina, today.
Nigeria stands solidly behind @akin_adesina in his re-election bid as President of the African Development Bank (AfDB). We will work with all leaders, and stakeholders in AfDB, to ensure that he re-elected, on the strength of his achievements during this first term.
A man who won’t trade our raw materials for finished goods because he believes we can turn them over, here on our very own soil of Africa. Come 20years, if this culture of corporate practice is sustained, Africa will totally fit into her 5 sustainability Agenda.#IstandWithAdesina
@akin_adesina@CyrilRamaphosa@MBuhari@AUC_MoussaFaki AFDB is meant for African development. Distractors have seen that Africa is gradually and steadily liberating itself from them through your great work since 2015. We all stand by you. May God bless you, May God bless Africa
