PODCAST>> "AFRICA IN FOCUS: "African Problems? African Solutions!" (24 June, 2014)

From Emmanuel K: "Dear friends, Kindly find a podcast of the 24 June edition of "Africa in Focus", which interrogated the question that: Whether it is in the challenge of combating drug trafficking in the sub-region; controlling our external borders; or the private sector examining concrete solutions to facilitate trade in the sub-region, the bottom line is that we have answers and solutions under our noses. Same can be said about our agriculture, and how many young people can be more active and proactive in that sector. We couple this with the fact that the AU is celebrating a year-long anniversary for Agriculture (a major talking point at the AU Summit underway in Maputo, Equatorial Guinea). Guests were: ** Stella Attakpah, Programmes Manager at GIABA – the Dakar-based Ecowas agency concerned with combating money-laundering and financing of terrorism; (from Bamako) ** Temitope Olodo – counter-terrorism and law enforcement expert based in the UK, and host of "Africa Security" programme in the UK; (from the UK) ** Afua Eshun – of Accra-based BORDERLESS Alliance, concerned with facilitating free movement in West Africa; (studio) **Edison Gbenga Ade -- of AgriPro Consulting, based in Osu, which works on agribusiness industry in Africa; (studio)" Click here to view (Emmanuel K shared these files using Dropbox.
