You see?
The poster is one of the reasons Africans cant ever be independent and will always be slave to the West.
Let us not even dabble into whether Adesina was guilty or exonerated, let me ask: Can any African Treasury Secretary or Minister intervene or interfere in thwat goes on in America? Can an American Minister disagree with the Probe that exonerated Trump and his cronies of interfering in the 2015 election? Canan African President disgaree and reverse Trump's sacking of those "Five Inspector Generals' whose job is to ensure that the Executive Arm (Trump) does not violate ethics or play according to the rules?

Yet here is an American Treasury Secretary trying to reverse the decision of an "Afrcian DEVELOPMENT Bank" that has no connection whatsoever to America?
And you are jubilating like the ignorant slave with the I.Q of a dolt, over what your 'master thinks'?
Why are some Africans so slow, like this?

Does it not occur to you or anyone for that matter that this INTERFERENCE is just another attempt for the bullying Trump Govt to muzzle Afrcians and their post-covid developments into submission?
AFDB is an independent and wholly african bank, it is not funded by the U.S treasury so what is their business, if a properly constituted panel investigated and found their President NOT GUILTY as alleged?
To America, he MUST be guilty, by hook or crook and prevented from winning a second term.
This shows any sensible African that these Americans are as much our enemies and any percieved Chinese negative influence in Africa.

America has identified this man, Adesina as one of the prodigies driving African renaissance and they would do anything, just anything to destroy him, like they did to Ghadaffi, when he was champeioning the need for Africa to unite and stop using the Dollar to to trade, among other things.

I am not suprised we have people like this poster as Nigerians, people who look down on themselves and will lick any smelly hole, as far as it is that of a white man.
Shame on you Bro.

moneyisgood6or9:
supposed he was indicted abinitio wolud they have recommended a second investigation. Those whites are too domineering

Obijulius:
This is going to end well.

When Trump or any of his appointees accuse you of corruption forget it, you are corrupt.

The AFDB was becoming a Chinese lackey and corruption can it be ruled.

Akinwunmi goofed on this one.

We move! No time for jokers!

Let the better man take the office!

omonnakoda:

They are an insignificant shareholder
They had the option of pushing their position through on the inside. They could have called for an independent investigation at the beginning

Nigeria is the largest shareholder with 9% And Nigeria is content as are the majority of shareholders.

The question we should ask is what exactly are the allegations?

What is he supposed to have done

EsomahJD:
One of the finest man men from Sw is going down.


Nepotism infected country.

Cotton:
Please stop misleading people. The US are a very significant shareholder being the 2nd largest shareholder.

Justiceleague1:


Correct. Adeshina is a clean fine gentleman. We all should rally round him and protect him. This is how it should be.

But we know if it were an Igbo man,we know how you and your people would've condemned him already! We know how you people will call for him to go clear himself!

We know how you people condemned air peace boss,Onyeama, when he had a fathom allegation laid against him!

You in particular,I know how vocal you were against that Igbo official that had issues with his PhD Cotonou University program!!!!

Same thing you would have done if Adeshina was Igbo,God knows.


May God see him thru.

Cotton:
Please stop misleading people. The US are a very significant shareholder being the 2nd largest shareholder.

One4me:


To what percentage?
Some 5%? 10%?

OfoIgbo:
If there are now too many Nigerians in leadership position in the bank, it will make sense.

If there are now too many Yorubas in leadership position in the bank, then that is clear nepotism, and he must be removed.

Anyway, an independent team will be far better, at determining what has really happened

omonnakoda:

Oyinbo man with oyinbo brain . You have no clue how pathetic you sound
Go and bleach yourself so you become oyinbo.
Oponu?

omonnakoda:

Who will appoint this
"Independent team"
Are they not at risk of not being "independent" enough? Where several countries are involved will such a team be acceptable to all
Such a concept in international affairs is probably unrealistic

gaventa:
So many of us are just low life haters! We have chose to discriminate and hate on our own. Any accusation by the colonial masters we end up criticizing our own. How many times have we probed expaitrates in our different parastatals? Do we think we don't try to but their people won't allow such happen . I saw a video of Chinese expatriates in Zambia been accused of treating Zambian workers Inhumanely just because of covid19, they were asked who is more likely to have the virus between Chinese and zambians and he never answered he even refuted that the virus came from China. This is how they stand up for their own but we are so quick to be happy when our kinsmen are goin down maybe as a result of ethnic bigotry or whatever. What a shame. Let's raise our consciousness and emancipatd ourselves from mental slavery. Criticise your brother in private but don't sell him out even if he is at fault

Meninmen:


Dunce, that is still nepotism at play at international level. Internationally, he is favoring Nigerians over other Africans.


But in Nigeria, your people favour your own people over other tribes in Nigeria. It's a well know fact all over Nigeria and I have had personal experiences.

If you like hit your head on the wall, it's a statement of fact!

Dimwit!

It does not help that the AfDB has chosen to have its annual meetings in Malabo, Equatorial Guinea on June 11 – June 14. Anyone who has read the classic book “Tropical Gangsters,” would recognize that the government of Equatorial Guinea is probably one of the most corrupt in the world. Other MDBs often choose largely democratic governments and reforming governments for meetings like these, so the timing and selection of Equatorial Guinea is not good.

In addition to a changed Africa and hosting the annual meetings in Malabo, the President of the AfDB, Dr. Akinwumi Adesina, is up for reelection next year. One must assume this is on the leadership’s mind and that President Adesina wants to get this increase done before his reelection.

However, shareholders are going to need to ask some serious questions. The U.S., as a major donor, does not have the same vote and influence in the AfDB as in other multilateral development banks (MDBs). The U.S. and other large contributors that are nonregional shareholders do not get as much voice and vote for the money they contribute. At the World Bank, the U.S. has 15.7 percent of voting power and a de facto veto, and the U.S. does not hold a similar veto power in the AfDB. The U.S. has 12.7 percent of voting power at the Asian Development Bank and 30 percent of voting power at the IDB, yet only has 6.649 percent of voting power at the AfDB.

Regional development banks operate better when they follow the “golden rule,” which is: Whoever has the gold makes the rules. Unfortunately that is not the case in the AfDB. Instead the institution is largely controlled by regional members (the borrowers) which have 58.89 percent of voting power. This limited accountability of the donors in the AfDB creates structural tensions that will continue to exist as long as the current distribution of voting power is not addressed.

hydroking23:


Nigeria 9.2%
US 6.5%
Japan 5.4%

Nigeria has the upper hand here. Nigeria and the other African countries need to tell Munchin to go eff himself.

OfoIgbo:


One thing I can be sure of is that any team that is directly attached to AfDB is definitely not independent enough

Meninmen:
"Adesina was accused by a group of unidentified whistleblowers of handing contracts to acquaintances and appointing relatives to strategic positions"

They never fail to disappoint. No matter how you work hard and please a Yoruba man in office, he will ALWAYS favour his fellow yoruba man over you.

That's the reason they Really don't see anything wrong with the nepotism Buhari exhibits everyday.

fallout87:
No one is asking the right questions.

For one the US doesn't care for the most part about African (or foreign) interest unless they want to seize control or put their man in place.

Why is this so important to Munchin? Mind you Munchin is a man who doesn't care about middle class or poor here in the US..... talk much Africans.

Dtribeless:


Shame on your for wasting your time typing all this tripe. Mumu, China is not America's competition; it's the EU. Stop trading with dollars and trade in Yuan? Hate will blind you. Even Asian countries are not trading in Yuan.

When you take time off typing rubbish online, review some of China's loan contracts across the continent; you'd see who your real enemy is.

Alaska90:




You are the only person on this forum who really have a deep understanding of is really going on...Americans only care when their interest is at stake

Obijulius:

Edit: Adding a picture to those crying �. Deal with it friends:

Let the better man take the office!

One4me:


You are a todler with a negative I.Q, to make the bolded statement.

China is America's greatest competitior in the scramble for Africa and China is having the upper hand right now.
Seeing your level of lack of intelligence, l will be dragging myself down into the gutter, if l start debating a brainless azzlicker like you.
GTF off my bum, Ooponu.

And Yes, eventually, as it has started with the upgrading of the Yuan into the 'international basket (I know you dont know what it means though ), it is just a question of time before the Yuan replaces the dollar.
America knows this hence its vociferous trade fights, tariffs, illegal protectionism, etc in recent time, to try to slow down the inevitable.
Go suck it up.

Malawian:

They support Buhari nepotism because they believe they are next inline to do same.

RuudVanNisteroy:

.............. China has lost all the goodwill it enjoyed with nations around the world.

doeeyed:



All... is a rather inaccurate description!



There might be an increased suspicion of their activities but as long as their goods and services are well-priced, the tag.. The world's Factory" ....isn't going away anytime soon.

'He who has/pays the piper, picks the tune'..


Whilst other countries are looming in recession for the next 18-60 months ,despite an initial dip in earnings, the Chinese can only consolidate on their position as an unethical "Shylock" of sorts.

Lending to these countries coming cap in hand for help.
