“GOVERNANCE PROBLEM”
Youssouf has stated that there’s a “drawback with governance” in some African nations, significantly these which were shaken by latest coups.
“The continent is experiencing many difficulties in the intervening time,” he informed AFP in December.
He stated that as fee chairman, “peace and safety” could be his precedence.
He must grapple with the devastating conflicts within the jap Democratic Republic of Congo and Sudan, in addition to large growth help cuts launched by US President Donald Trump.
A lot of the continent has been left reeling by the transfer to reduce funding for the USAID company, with consultants warning it might hobble humanitarian work in Africa.
Youssouf refused to be drawn on Trump, telling AFP in December – forward of the US chief’s inauguration – that his insurance policies can be judged “with out prejudice”.
