Published 8h agoAt the recent Africa n Renaissance Retreat in Kigali, Rwanda, Aliko Dangote, the President of the Pan- Africa n conglomerate, Dangote Group, highlighted the immense potential that Africa has, despite its significant challenges.
Additionally, it possesses 65% of the world’s arable land and 10% of the planet’s renewable freshwater sources.
