The Vice President, Yemi Osinbajo, says knowledgeable leadership committed to good governance remains critical to fulfilling Africa’s growth ambitions.
Osinbajo, made this known at a virtual lecture at the 2023 Africana Conference of the Fletcher School, Tufts University, United States, themed “Africa 2050: Making Growth Work.”
The vice president restated his view that Africa had the potential to become the first truly green civilisation, the first civilisation on earth to use renewable fuel for purposes of a transformative economic journey.
According to him, with the lowest carbon emissions, Africa can develop by deploying and using green energy effectively and by mobilising its young population to promote green manufacturing on a scale that would make it the global green factory of the world.
