When even APC attest to your credibility despite the fact that you are in an Opposing party, then you are truly credible.

This is not to say APC is a credible party btw.

Congrats Adesina, make the country proud.

For real?
That's some pretty good news. But I still believe he would have been more 'useful' to the new government than the AfDB.
#my take though.

If the APC of Atiku had not accepted Buhari advice to support the agric minister by selling his presidency to the likes of Jacob Zuma retards saTANist like you would still complain. What must be done to cure the madness that is plaguing you TANoids across Nigeria ? This is a good news to Nigeria for good sake.

Turaki lobby paid off

Outgoing Minister of Agriculture and Rural Development for Nigeria, Akinwumi A. Adesina, has won the race race for the presidency of African Development Bank (AfDB) following election by the AfDB governors on Thursday.

Eight candidates, including Nigeria's agriculture minister, Akinwumi Adesina, Cape Verde's finance minister, Cristina Duarte, and a former Tunisian finance minister, Jaloul Ayed, vied to take over from Rwandan Donald Kaberuka in what was believed to be a tight race.

President-elect, Muhammadu Buhari, had requested the Economic Community of West African States to support the candidacy of Akinwunmi Adesina, as the next president of the African Development Bank (ADB) as he also sent former Vice President Atiku Abubakar, to South Africa to lobby for the Adesina's candidacy.
