“Adesina needs our Support” – Peter Obi calls on African Leaders

Former Governor of Anambra State, Peter Obi has called on all African Leaders to support the President of the African development bank (AfDB), Akinwumi Adesina.

He made the plea amidst demand for Adesina’s probe for corruption. The United States Department of Treasury had called for an independent corruption probe on Adesina after he was cleared by the bank’s ethics committee.

Reacting to this development in a tweet via his twitter handle, he wrote:

“For a people in search of leadership that will inspire a continent-wide transformation, Africa and its state governments need to rally round and celebrate opportunities such as been presented by Dr @akin_adesina’s presidency of the AfDB.

“We will have ourselves to blame if we miss this opportunity. Adesina deserves ALL of our support.-PO
