President of the African Development Bank, Akinwumi Adesina has vowed to use the bank to elevate and promote Africa.

He made this statement in a tweet via his twitter handle, @akin_adesina

The AfDB president promised to make development in the continent soar and stressed that it will be a continuous effort.

"This is a new Africa. The African Development Bank will keep focus on elevating and developing Africa. This is not a job. It is a mission," he tweeted.

This is a new Africa. The African Development Bank will keep focussed on elevating and developing Africa. This is not a job. It is a mission.

It will be worthy of note that Adesina has been deliberately pro-African this year, particularly and this month, most especially.

This is a new Africa, a resurgent Africa, a more confident Africa, the old is gone, the new is here!

Most of his tweets from last week till date have all been about building Africa and reclaiming her lost glory.

African Development Bank is Africa’s trusted development finance institution of choice. We think Africa, know Africa, work for Africa and have only one mission: accelerate the development of Africa. We are trusted because we earned Africa’s trust. We are Africa’s Bank!
