Meanwhile, President Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo has charged African leaders to put their synergies and resources together to articulate a new way of addressing infrastructural concerns on the continent.
Speaking at an Infrastructure Solution summit organised by the Africa Finance Corporation (AFC) in Abuja, Nigeria, Thursday May 12, Mr Akufo-Addo encouraged leadership on the continent, to demand an equal playing field on the global finance market.
