Burkina Faso's new e-Passport, China's African interest - Citizens' Hour

from WADR · host WADR

In this episode, we dive into two major topics: the recently concluded Africa-China Summit in Beijing and Burkina Faso's launch of a new e-passport. We break down key takeaways from the Forum on China-Africa Cooperation (FOCAC), where Chinese President Xi Jinping pledged $51 billion in support for Africa over three years, focusing on infrastructure, job creation, and deeper collaboration. But what does this cooperation really mean for Africans? Joining the conversation are Jide Akintunde, Director of Nigeria Development and Finance Forum, and international relations expert Micheal Nketsiah. Tune in for expert insights!
