Johannesburg - South Africa has taken a decision not to nominate a candidate for president of the African Development Bank (AfDB), the finance ministry said on Wednesday.

"South Africa has taken a decision not to nominate a candidate for this position."
The ministry said the process of selecting a candidate within the Southern African Development Community (SADC) was currently underway, and South Africa would act in accordance with the collective decision of the region.
