Africa Press-Nigeria:
The Board of Governors of the African Development Bank (AfDB) has denied reports that the bank’s President, Dr Akinwumi Adesina, has resigned.
The board, in a statement by its chairman, Niale Kaba, said no decision has been taken on the complaint by some shareholders about the Ethics Committee report exonerating Adesina of allegations of ethical misconduct.
The Board pleaded to be allowed to do its work without interference.
The statement reads: “On Tuesday, 26 May, the office of the Board of Governors of the African Development Bank Group held a meeting to examine the matter arising from a complaint from the Board of Directors of the Bank, and about that which I received from some shareholders expressing different points of view.
