African Water Facility (AWF), Coordinator at African Development Bank (AfDB)

Posted on Wed 04th Mar, 2015 - hotnigerianjobs.com --- (0 comments)


African Development Bank (AfDB) - In September 1964, a group of Africans met in Khartoum, Sudan, to ratify the multinational agreement to set up the African Development Bank. They were representing the continent's newly formed twenty-five governments. They had the same mission and bore the same hope. Their hope was to see the new institution contribute to the continent's development and unity.

By this act, Africa was taking its destiny into its own hands in the early 1960s. From the very early stages, and often with reference to major market networks of pre-colonial Africa, its leaders had designed the institution so that it would be one hundred percent African. Africa wanted to be in charge of its own destiny and wanted to be distant from the ideological and linguistic divides of the time. Thus, the African Development Bank (AfDB) was created.

African Development Bank (AfDB) is recruiting to fill the position below:
