Now, we see mediators directly linking outcomes to investment in Congo,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n<p>He insisted that the method showed why leaders must embrace new strategies that link peace agreements with sustainable development.<\/p>\n<p>Tinubu also urged African countries to embrace market-driven partnerships instead of \u201chackneyed appeals for aid and handouts.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Japanese prime minister, Shigeru Ishiba, used the forum\u2019s opening to announce $5.5bn financing for Africa through Japan\u2019s international cooperation agency.<\/p>\n<p>He said the facility, in collaboration with the African Development Bank, would target growth driven by private sector investment.<\/p>\n<p>According to Ishiba, the programme will focus on youth, women, regional integration, and sustainable industries across the continent.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIn 75 years from now, the population of Japan would have been halved. In the local communities, the population continues to decline; this is one big challenge Japan is facing,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p>He contrasted Japan\u2019s demographic problems with Africa\u2019s youthful population, urging the creation of industries that could harness the continent\u2019s workforce.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The president praised Congo\u2019s peace deal strategy, highlighting how mediation linked with investment demonstrated Africa\u2019s need for fresh thinking.
