Africa should put money where its mouth is – Tinubu

Nigeria’s President Bola Tinubu has said that Africa needs to put its money where its mouth is.

Tinubu made the statement on Thursday while speaking at the Africa CEO Forum in Rwanda.

DAILY POST recalls that President Bola Tinubu on Wednesday arrived in Rwanda for the annual Africa CEO Forum.

“For me, Africa needs to put its money where its mouth is. I believe in Africa first.

“It is very welcoming to see that we are up to it, and I must congratulate my brother, the President of Rwanda, and the organisers for putting this together.

“Investment is very cowardly unless you are transparent, accountable and forthright. Part of that is Africa looking at itself, putting our resources together so we can go out there and negotiate for ourselves.

“I wrote an article in the Financial Times talking about international rating agencies,” he said.
