There are still good investment opportunities in Africa, says president of Afrexim

If the UK leaves the European Union it would certainly make the UK's business relationship with Africa uncertain, at least in the short-term.

Some say it would harm trade because of the current arrangements with the European Union. But those in favour of leaving, argue that it would be a good thing because the UK could, in a sense, "re-connect" with African states outside the EU's rules.

Whichever way, some of the big African economies - like Nigeria and South Africa - are struggling to attract foreign investment. The BBC's Lerato Mbele sat down with Dr Benedict Okey Oramah, the president and chairman the African import and export bank Afrexim, to discuss this issue.
