AGP Executive Report

Last update: 10 hours ago

Tunisia Heat Protests: Tunisians hit the streets in Tunis after extreme heat triggered power rationing and water cuts, with a new opposition collective (Nafas) demanding President Kais Saied step aside and calling out medicine shortages and rising costs. Nigeria Fuel Subsidy Clash: President Bola Tinubu and FCT minister Nyesom Wike attacked Atiku Abubakar’s 2027 promise to restore petrol subsidy, calling it “ignorance” and “voodoo economics,” while Atiku insists the money is missing and subsidy should return. South Africa Local Politics Trust Gap: An Afrobarometer survey finds only 17% of South Africans feel heard by councillors, while 95% say councillors are corrupt—fueling frustration ahead of local elections. Central African Republic Mine Disaster: The CAR shut the Zamboye artisanal gold mine after a landslide killed at least 49, with local sources warning the toll could be around 100 as rescues struggle. DR Congo Ebola Warning: Africa CDC says confirmed Ebola cases in DRC (over 5,200) may represent just 30–40% of infections, as Kinshasa reinforces surveillance along the Congo River corridor. Uganda Military Shake-up: President Museveni presided over the retirement of 19 UPDF generals, praising patriotism and modern military tech while urging prudent post-service investments. Cybercrime Alert: A continent-wide scam targets Africans via fake brand and government websites, aiming to hijack smartphones and bank accounts.
