The African Development Bank’s (AfDB) Board of Governors has approved a 10-year strategy plan to assist African economies recover from the COVID-19 epidemic and the Russian-Ukraine conflict.

The strategy plan, which was approved at the recently concluded 57th Annual Meetings in Accra, intends to increase investment in crucial sectors of the African economy and make the continent affluent.

Dr. Akinwumi Adesina, President of the AfDB Group, remarked, “This adoption got extremely strong support from the Bank’s Board of Directors, making it a vital document for our progress.”

“We will boost growth and bring many Africans out of poverty, as well as build a strong financial institution to assist the continent’s private sector development,” he continued.

Dr. Adesina urged delegates to help improve Africa and convey the continent’s tale of hope, saying that they were all “partners in hope who shared a love for the continent and who should celebrate Africa’s triumphs.”
