”AfDB was ranked by Global Finance as the best multilateral financial institution in the world in 2021.

”When Covid-19 struck, our Board, based on rigorous risk assessments, approved a crisis response facility of up to 10billion dollars.

”We launched a three-billion dollar fight Covid-19 social bond on the global capital markets, the highest ever US dollar-denominated social bond in the world history.

”Our rapid COVID-19 response facility helped towards stabilising African economies,
it trained 130,000 health workers, provided social protection for about 30 million vulnerable households.

”Our achievements, exceptional management, good governance systems, and delivery of the
Bank cannot be denied or misrepresented, based on externally fabricated lies, distortions, misinformation,
and deliberately orchestrated campaign of calumny.

”We will tell our story, we will not be defined by mischief makers, lies and biases.

”We are proudly African and we will continue to make Africa
proud as Africa’s only AAA-rated financial institution,” he said. (NAN/vitalnews)
