Akinwumi Adesina has been re-elected as the President of the African Development Bank President.
Adesina by this election will spend another five years superintending the affairs of bank.
The election took place on Thursday at the virtual annual general meeting of the bank.
Adesina’s reappointment on Thursday at the helm of the 56-year-old bank is considered a formality as he is the sole candidate, Lespanafricaines reports.
The head of the African bank had appealed on Wednesday for a second term in office after a months-long storm over alleged corruption and poor governance that ended after he was cleared in an independent probe.
