AGP Executive Report

Last update: 11 hours ago

Cross-Border Trade & Fintech: Ghana’s AMA country lead Angela Akua Asante says Africa must strengthen strategic communication between Anglophone and Francophone states to unlock intra-African trade and digital finance, citing regulatory and market-information gaps. Tax & Revenue Mobilisation: Ghana Revenue Authority boss Anthony Sarpong urges African tax administrations to broaden tax bases, formalise the informal economy, and share data—using e-filing, e-payments and analytics to boost compliance. Nigeria Security Accountability: The AAC demands the sacking of NSCDC leadership after 37 suspected illegal miners died in custody in Niger State, calling for independent forensic investigation. Social Protection Push: A civil society coalition urges Nigeria to expand social protection to informal workers, including pensions, healthcare and unemployment injury coverage. Nigerian Politics & Fuel Subsidy Row: Ministers and opposition figures trade blows over Tinubu’s “Bola” remark and Atiku’s proposed petrol subsidy, with supporters framing it as either economic relief or a return to failed policy. Uganda Infrastructure Setback: Museveni rejects lake-based fuel transport on Lake Victoria, throwing the Shs393bn Mukula logistics project into limbo. South Africa GBV Crisis: Memorial runs and protests follow the discovery of nine women’s bodies in Ekurhuleni, renewing pressure on government action against femicide. Diplomacy & Regional Security: Egypt’s FM discusses Iran, Sudan de-escalation and Libya with a US senior adviser, stressing freedom of navigation in Hormuz. UNGA Agendas: Kenya’s Ruto and Ghana’s Mahama head to New York to push investment, AI and Africa-focused financing at the 81st UN General Assembly. Regional Justice: ECOWAS Court will hold a Dakar conference on justice, human rights and AI/data protection to strengthen regional integration.
