Video insights

@businessinsiderssa's TikTok video "“We need more Alikos, but we also have to remember that there are still too many obstacles in the way of investment.” WTO Director-General Ngozi Okonjo-Iweala made the point during a discussion on Africa’s investment and industrialisation challenges at the 81st UN General Assembly in New York on September 21, 2026. She noted that while entrepreneurs such as Aliko Dangote have the influence and resources to push through some of these barriers, many other African business leaders do not have the same clout. Okonjo-Iweala argued that Africa must look closely at the obstacles holding back investment, warning that “we are shooting ourselves in the foot” if those barriers remain." has 15,316 views, 1,475 likes, 26 comments, 57 shares in the public metrics captured by this index.
