Dr. Kola Adesina, President and CEO of Sahara Group, has called for increased climate financing and sustainable investment to unlock Africa’s economic growth.
Dr. Adesina made the call on Thursday at the United Nations General Assembly (UNGA), where he highlighted the need for stronger investment in energy, infrastructure, agriculture and other critical sectors.
He said innovative financing mechanisms were needed to bridge Africa’s climate-finance gap and support sustainable development across the continent.
Dr. Adesina also stressed the importance of private-sector participation in driving investment and building a more resilient African economy.
