African countries are lagging behind the targets we set them, UN secretary general Ban Ki-moon warned yesterday.
‘Developed countries pledged to half global poverty by 2015 – and I don’t see that happening.’
Mr Ban urged developed countries to spend €48.7 million a year extra to help African leaders meet our goals.
‘Pulling millions out of extreme poverty in Africa looks like good value, Mr Ban said, when you think that people paid €89 million for a few Hirsts. Heck, it'd cost more to buy Aston Villa.'
