Microsoft founder Bill Gates says that most of his fortune will be spent on improving health and education services in Africa over the next 20 years.
The 69-year-old said that "by unleashing human potential through health and education, every country in Africa should be on a path to prosperity".
Speaking in Ethiopia's capital Addis Ababa, he also urged Africa's young innovators to think about how to build Artificial Intelligence (AI) to improve healthcare on the continent.
Gates announced last month that he would give away 99% of his vast fortune - which he expects to reach $200bn (£150bn) - by 2045, by when his foundation planned to end its operations.

Serious mental illness is strong w/ Gates.
Anyone remember Gates used to be vilified and pied in public ?
Its been a PR campaign ever since. .
“Heath” = sterilization?
And what will this prove? The money will be squandered.
Good a few Corrupt dictators can go and spend money in Europe while their people starve. Better to just throw it in the street.
May as well pile it up and burn it for all the good it will do, but at least he isn’t giving it to leftist causes.
A few hundred oligarchs/dictators/military will get 90% of it.
Is that reparations for all the Africans he killed with his jabs?
Moron doesn't know that all the funds will immediately find their way into the Swiss accounts of strongmen, warlords, primitive chieftains, and Nigerian "princes".
Other than polio vaccines, it’s a waste of his money.
Well I’m sure Gates isn’t looking for his own private pedo fiefdom.
Gates wants to use Africa for his medical experiments.
The dumbass should give it to Musk to speed up colonizing Mars. Remember what the world got from going to the moon? The payoffs to humanity from the technological discoveries needed to get humans on Mars will totally offset wasting it on Africa.
gates will make sure every african gets the vaccine and the boosters for as long as is necessary… then he will turn all of africa into a game preserve.
Poor Bill lives in a big bubble, and I feel really sorry for him
even in the 1990s I would see him around quite a bit
but after the pie thing he started to get paranoid and stuff.
Yes ! And a PR campaign ever since
Talk about flushing money down the toilet . The west has been giving money to Africa for decades and it’s still a sh**hole . Much of the populace would have died out by now if we hadn’t , though , as much as they procreate there .
Live Aid?
Who does he think he’s kidding. We all know it will go into another tax shelter disguised as a “foundation,” just like it is now.
