 ABUJA, Nigeria (AP) - Africa needs to build infrastructure and curb corruption to become truly attractive for private investment, World Bank President Paul Wolfowitz told a forum of African and black American leaders.
Still, Wolfowitz commended the continent for moving toward peace and said the stability is helping to grow African economies.
"Four to five years ago there were 16 wars in Africa. But now it's down to six," Wolfowitz said. He spoke Tuesday to African political and business leaders gathered with their U.S. counterparts in the Nigerian capital, Abuja, for the 7th Leon Sullivan Summit.
