I'm sure that "science can drive #development and unity in #Africa — as it does in the US and Europe." I support the #AfricanUnion and #AfricanDevelopmentBank plan to launch a fund to advance these goals.

#SDGs

So, the big question for today is whether the 'worst hellhole in the World' label supplied by Britain is assisting the flow of investment money into Rwanda?
