This point of disagreements perhaps played a role in the investigation and subsequent dismissal of the allegations against Mr Adesina.
In dismissing the allegations against Mr Adesina, the ethics committee noted that if its preliminary examination of the complaint or allegation reveals it was “frivolous or not based on any objective and solid facts”, the resolution empowered the committee to dismiss it.
The group, which noted their allegations were in line with AfDB’s whistleblowing policy, said these activities adversely affected the confidence and integrity of the bank.Regardless, the United States government expressed “deep reservations about the integrity of the committee’s process” and called for a fresh “in-depth investigation of the allegations.”
The decision, taken at the meeting of the bureau regarding the whistleblowers’ complaints against Mr Adesina, was obviously in deference to the demand by the U.S. governmentPresident @MBuhari receives President of African Development Bank , Dr. @Akin_Adesina, at the State House, Abuja.
