A house is built foundation up, not the other way round. Every idea, concept, project or agenda must start with the customer. It's all about meeting the customers' needs. Any design that doesn't start and end with the customer is flawed.

@AfDB_Group @_AfricanUnion @akin_adesina Congratulations! Very well deserved. Very few leaders have projected and protected Africa better economically and socially, building poverty-reducing and wealth-creating infrastructures to change the living conditions in the continent. May these foundational initiatives endure.

@CaxtonJP @DrJoeAbah The absence of the fundamentals that drive electricity supply is the cause of darkness in Africa's biggest economy. If we can replicate the Magodo model generally, we will be on the pathway to light. Market-driven power sector plus alignment of the value chain are the answers.
