Japan Announces $1.5 Billion Investment Plan in Africa | Firstpost Africa | N18G
Japan is making a significant push to deepen its economic ties with Africa, seeking to establish itself as a key partner of the continent. This move comes as African nations grapple with the aftermath of Trump’s hardline trade policies and a Chinese-led debt crisis. Against this backdrop, at the recent Tokyo International Conference on African Development, Japan’s Prime Minister pledged support for the continent’s growth. In line with its commitments, Tokyo has announced a $1.5 billion investment plan aimed at supporting sustainable development and reducing greenhouse gas emissions in Africa. After recovering from decades of deflation, Japan is now eyeing African markets and the continent’s vast natural resources, including critical minerals that could help reduce its reliance on China.

Japan now colonising? Wow they will regret it very soon!! Let the looting begin from Japans goodwill.
Its a good move
Africa is jot a country so wich part😂
🤔Trade 🤨
😂😂😂 so 50 leaders fly to Japan for 1.5 billion
welcome ❤❤❤❤
Japan is offering 1.5 billion as compared to Chinese 66 billion direct investment and 300 billion in terms of free tariffs trade expansion
These leaders are embarrassing Africa.
These leaders are going for luxury Toyotas 😂😂😂
We see them lining up, how the tables turn
I personally think its a good move inthe right direction.
All African "leaders" do is demand hand outs! They're incapable of actually creating jobs and a future for their own people! All this money will just again go to the few corrupt.
Japan is welcome. But the west must disappear
Japan is being responsible.
Japan in Africa is a good step forward.
They should finance Africa after all who they are today is as a result of theft and if they need to stay at the top they need Africa even more.
The new generation of leadership in Africa is also up to the taske
Can japan spread itself across Africa? The answer is no. Trade between japan and Africa benefits japan. When will this African leaders start using their brains
What is 1.5 billions to Africa? Wake up Africans brothers and sisters pls? Keep your poor 1.5 billions in asia pls? We africans are not poor like you think all, Africans coutries need good leadership that is it, wake up Africans brothers and sisters pls? Africa don't need the world, the world need Africans ressources and minerals, Africans have the power but don't see it.
Take better your Colonized borders down and do business within your continent? You don't need those fake western friends of asians friends, wake up Africans?
Wake up Africans, you don't need those fake friends, Africa don't have friends, they want Only your resources and minerals, not more.
I don't understand how African leaders think the amount of money that Japan offers can be raise locally if Africa is one
Why will a small country like Japan host a whole continent leaders, really Africa leader's are so humble
Africa should stop been a begger, wake, plan and work hard
They all need Africa , make no mistake Africa as everything to gain if they play their cards right
Well done Japan 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉 all this time where were they from Africa 😢😢😢
Japan 1.5 billion vs China 50 billion 😆😆😆
Nazi Germany and Japan we don't want in africa
lousy presidents
They promised Trump $500 billion but only investing $1.5 billion in Africa? Go to hell with your pitance.
The Japs are not an alternative to China. The Japs are sidekicks of Western countries. It's the same cabal. Africa must solidify relationship with China
WE WANT RESPECT FROM ALL THOSE COUNTRIES WANTING TO WORK WITH AFRICA. AFRICANS WANT MUTUAL RESPECT. AND TREAT AFRICANS IN THEIR COUNTRIES WITH RESPECT.
1.5b for all 54 african nations? 27 million dollar each? Cmon japan. U did better than india but an embarrasment to china
As a Nigeria, I'd rather work with Japan than China. There is much we can learn from their hard-working nature and attention to detail
Mr.piroka also brought some musted oil for these African ledders 🐦⬛
