President of the African School of Governance (ASG), Prof Kingsley Moghalu, has charged Africans to fix their problems and stop looking for salvation from other world leaders.
The former presidential candidate said Africa can start by fixing its challenges namely leadership, governance, security and democracy.
Moghalu stated this while reacting to expectations from President Donald Trump as he returns as 47th president of the United States.
Trump had defeated Vice President Kamala Harris in the majority votes and electoral college to emerge US president-elect four years after he was defeated by President Joe Biden.
However Moghalu charged Africans not to expect much from Trump, adding that they should stop looking for external props.
The former Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN) deputy director, on his X handle said, “For those wondering what Donald Trump’s remarkable political comeback means for Africa, the answer is: Not much! He has never shown much interest in Africa. Even more important, Africans should fix their own problems, starting with leadership, governance, security, and democracy.
“We should stop looking to external props. It was not the US President that intervened in Botswana to achieve the remarkable electoral outcome there, and the incumbent’s gracious concession. Trump will certainly matter for the Middle East, Ukraine, Europe more broadly, and China,” he said.
