Former U.N. Secretary General Kofi Annan has announced his intention to establish a foundation for the development of African agriculture. He expressed disappointment that Africa was unable to feed itself.
"There used to be starvation in India and China but that is not the case now. I would in the next phase of my life like to work with international actors and African leaders to take agriculture to a new level," Annan said. "It is my commitment that we find a solution to the problems of agriculture on the continent."
