The Director General of the World Trade Organisation (WTO), Dr Ngozi Okonjo-Iweala, has urged African leaders to be innovative and seek ways to survive Donald Trump’s policies.
Okonjo-Iweala made this known at the headquarters of the African Union in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia.
According to the ex-World Bank developmental economist, Africa really needs to change its mindset and see opportunities with the seeming challenge and effect of the pause of billions of dollars in global funding for United States’ health and education projects in countries of the world.
Okonjo-Iweala noted that African leaders must attract investment and mobilise resources to survive contemporary social and economic realities that come with the policies of the Donald Trump presidency.
“Access to aid, I think we can begin to think of it as a thing of the past,” she added.
