For those that are interested to know what is really happening at Africa Development Bank

The economic and trade war between the United States and China is opening up front lines in Africa. After openly neglecting the continent at the start of Donald Trump’s mandate, the US administration is working hard to block Chinese expansion and regain abandoned market shares. This is a strategy developed by the shadow advisers of the American president since 2017.

In this fight, the takeover of financing levers on the continent is a priority for the Americans, with the African Development Bank (AfDB) as a major target. In this context, is its president Akinwumi Adesina a pawn to be released?

*Adesina, a stone in the shoe of American influence?*
Engaged in a lip-service campaign to win a second term at the head of the African Development Bank at the end of August, Akinwumi Adesina has been plunged into the heart of a fight that is beyond him. Of course, the Nigerian remains the only candidate for his own succession. And even if he can avail himself of the support of the African Union, he will not obtain the easy victory that everyone promised him, essentially due to the economic and commercial rivalry between the United States and China raging across Africa. In this fight, to control the decision-making and financing levers on the continent, the AfDB, and therefore the president who directs it, are major issues for the American camp.

*The Trump administration’s strategy of winning back?*
Since coming to power in January 2017, Donald Trump has seemed to ignore Africa. So far, the American president has received only two heads of state from the continent at the White House. This is unprecedented. Worried about the omnipresence of Beijing on the continent and the loss of Washington’s economic influence on the ground, beginning in 2018, the advisers of the Trump administration concocted a strategy of reconquest to counter China in Africa .

*A slow work of persuasion begins with regard to the American president and turns into obsession in the ranks of the neoconservatives*

Ironically, the offensive was designed and led from the start by the hawk John Bolton, then-National Security Advisor

The American conservatives are very worried. From 178 billion dollars in 2016, the volume of trade between China and Africa reached 186 billion dollars in 2018, and exceeded the symbolic mark of 200 billion dollars in 2019. Even if the objective announced by Beijing in 2014 to aim for 400 billion dollars in trade by 2020 is proving unrealistic today, the inexorable and rapid upward trend in trade between China and Africa is irreversibly written.

This is quite the opposite of trade relations between the United States and the continent.

*Attack through commercial means*
The cornerstone of the American trade strategy on the African continent, the AGOA (law on growth and opportunities in Africa) has a poor record for its 20 years in 2020. Launched in 2000 under Bill Clinton, AGOA offers duty-free entry into the American market for 6,500 African products (petroleum, agricultural, textiles, handicrafts, etc.). Thirty-nine predominantly sub-Saharan countries benefit from it. AGOA goals? Help diversify trade with the continent and promote industrialization in sub-Saharan Africa.

When those allegations first came out i made mention on this forum that those were not serious, and that all the noise surrounding it were uncalled for. i also made mention that favouritism is everywhere.
America and the west have bluntly refused to leave Africa alone, always meddling in our affairs.
The west have using NGOs to push their homosexual, transgender, abortion agenda in Africa, for a very long time.
The west lead by the USA have been meddling in our politics right from time, Muammar al-Gaddafi was the last african leader to be assassinated.
The west lead by the USA overthrew a democratically elected Egyptian president and installed a stooge.

AFRICA WOULD NEVER BE FREE, UNTIL WE AFRICANS DECIDE TO FREE OURSELVES!!!

Thumbs up for Adesina. His integrity has been proven, which is good for him and the bank. Also good that US don't take things for granted like Africa.
Re: Akinwumi Adesina Exonerated By AfDB Independent Review Committee by wink2015(m): 8:04am On Jul 28, 2020
GOOD NEWS ! At least for now.

But Adesina stepping down probably would have bring in more money to the AFDB via America investment.

How much does Ireland contribute to the AFDB or the rest of the EU.

THERE WILL STILL BE FUNDING PROBLEMS FOR THE AFDB AND MOST OF THEIR PERSONNEL WILL BE DENIED ACCESS TO AMERICA.

The Land they so desired to travel to.

Key senior personnel of the AFDB will be sanctioned from attending American organized conferences, fairs and seminars.

So what did the panel do? It was stated that the panel didn't investigate the charges. Was it a kangaroo panel? How did they arrive at their conclusion.

Adesina is my man but AFDB under his watch will struggle with fund as long as they depend on America for equity contribution.

I trust America, they will start bullying the man and his executives including placing sanctions. The way they are doing the judges at the international court of justice at the Hague for going against them.

For me personally, it is not about picking one over the other. Its about Nigeria and Africa developing and moving forward on our own terms. Look at China. China has no democracy, China has no human rights, China has no freedom of speech. China does things on its own terms. China does not defer or ask permission from the west for anything.
