Africa: The Next Chapter
Posted August 1, 2007 · Charles O
After four days of intense discussion on aid versus trade at TEDGlobal 2007, it was up to Ngozi Okonjo-Iweala, the former Finance Minister of Nigeria, to sum it up. She asks, first, for the discussion to continue, and for it to grow more sophisticated, more nuanced. And she shares a gripping story that puts the aid-versus-trade debate into true human terms.

Tremendous performance from this remarkable Lady of power and influence. She held the audience spellbound with her reasoned and articulate presentation of the economic reality of Africa’s situation. It must have been an education for the Western audience . She has done Africa proud.
