The World Bank is aggressively pushing the infrastructure “public private partnership” model

The government should create a facilitative framework that promotes increased private sector investments in infrastructure development to ease rising burden of public debt, the World Bank Group has said.  The lender says in the annual Africa’s Pulse report, a bi-annual analysis of the state of African economies, that at least half of infrastructural finance needs in sub-Saharan countries should be met through Public-Private Partnership initiative.
