Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) has congratulated Dr. Akinwunmi Adesina, on his re-election for a second term in office as the President of African Development Bank (AfDB).
The PDP on Thursday said the re-election was well- deserved in view of the competence and commitment of  Dr. Akinwunmi Adesina.
PDP, in a statement, by its spokesman, Kola Ologbondiyan said Dr. Adesina has attracted praises in bringing his deep knowledge in economic development to bear on the bank’s primary functions of making loans and equity investments for the socio-economic advancement of Regional Member Countries (RMC).
The PDP commended Adesina for improving on the bank’s key role of providing technical assistance for development projects and programs as well as promoting the investment of public and private capital for development.
The party noted that Adesina had remained a good Ambassador of Nigeria in his display of the high level of discipline, professionalism and utmost diligence in the discharge of his duties at the AfDB.
The party particularly notes that Dr. Adesina’s high potentials were first brought to limelight when he was appointed by the PDP administration of President Goodluck Jonathan as minister of agriculture in 2010.
The PDP also notes with pride that the potentials discovered by the inclusiveness of its administration have continued to bring honor to Nigeria both at the national and international arena.
