The Secretary General of La Francophonie Louise Mushikiwabo and Serge Ekue, President of the West African Development Bank (BOAD) yesterday signed a Framework Cooperation Agreement allowing the two Organizations to combine their efforts to support digital transformation in the 8 countries of WAEMU.
