The Chief Executive Officer of ISG & Partners, Mr Steven Tuinstra has
\nexpressed the readiness and commitment of his organisation to compliment the
\neffort of African leaders in ensuring economic growth and halt poverty advancement on the continent. <\/p>\n

Tuinstra believes that with the enormous resources in Africa and the capacity of
\nits citizens the continent only requires partnership from development oriented
\norganization to maximize the potential.
\nThe ISG & Partners CEO noted that most African leaders are adequately
\nprepared to change the fortune of their various countries but are limited in
\nfinancing to actualize their objectives. He said having lived in Africa for no less
\nthan 2 decades he can confidently declare that the leaders are indeed focussed
\nand are willing to improve on the economy of their nations. <\/p>\n

Speaking through ISG’s Director of Media,Moses Owopade, Tuinstra promised that
\nISG & Partners across the world will extend their financial capacity to improve
\nthe economic growth on the continent.
\nAccording to the ISG & Partners CEO, to create economic growth we have to
\nstart with the infrastructure such as transport and energy.
\n”For example 600
\nmillion people in Africa still have no access to electricity. Investing in health care
\nmakes no sense at all as long as the ordinary people do not have the money to
\nuse it. The people who can afford it go abroad”<\/p>\n

According to him, the Chinese government has lifted 800 million people out of
\npoverty in 10 years. <\/p>\n

”We can also make this happen in Africa. As a direct result of
\ninfrastructure development, entrepreneurs have the opportunity to start a new
\nbusiness and need staff to do so. On this way you will create job
\nin Africa so that the ordinary people can also go to the hospital when they have
\nhealth complaints, and then the time is also right to invest in health care”<\/p>\n

Tuinstra during a meeting at ISG & Partners office Togo identified quality power supply, good roads, functional rail way
\nservices and effective air ports as areas that can expedite economic
\nadvancement.<\/p>\n

He said good railway services will enhance cheap and good
\nmovement of both goods and services on the continent, even as
\nhe noted that Africa has got quality people, good climatic condition
\nand education that can improve and increase wealth on the continent.
\nThe ISG & Partners boss also stressed that the need for young Africans to
\nimmigrate to other continents will diminish when they can find a good job with
\nprospects in their own country.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
