‘Business must fight bribery’

Risk elements in
Africa have decreased
dramatically, allowing for
good investment returns
– a scenario that bodes
well for the continent’s
future, according to
Adegboyega Adebajo of
Diamond Bank.
Speaking at the
Investments in Africa
conference held in
Sandton recently,
he said: “However
we need to measure
our governments by
addressing corruption,
and business needs to
drive ethical business
practices as much as
possible. No more bribes
should be paid even if
there is a risk of losing
the transaction,” he said.
