      Thank you new Africa business news for all your reporting. Benin can take loan from any government but I totally disagree on them using the loan giver in this case UK, by using UK’s construction exporters and suppliers. Benin should use African companies to do this construction and African suppliers. We in the Continent are capable of building and supplies for any construction. Johannesburg SOUTH AFRICA. Chuki.

      China is also being doing that. Giving the loan and doing the projects and taking the money with them. Yes some countries in Africa are not but some are. Africa has companies to do any projects. Our continent compare to most countries in the western countries did took far less loans. Is how you do with the loans. Look at United States owes more than $22 Trillion and in counting. Cape town, South Africa. Hans.
