AGP Executive Report

Last update: 9 hours ago

AU Peace & Security: Ghana’s President Mahama backed the Luanda Action Plan and urged early warning to trigger early action, calling for predictable, sustainable, African-owned financing for peace missions. Conflict Prevention Push: Morocco used the AU summit in Luanda to argue prevention must sit at the heart of Africa’s peace and security agenda, linking stability to jobs, youth, women’s roles, and food-water-energy security. Nigeria Fuel Subsidy Row: Atiku says petrol price hikes prove Tinubu’s reforms are deepening poverty, while APC leaders warn subsidy restoration would erase reform gains and worsen fiscal strain. Legal & Politics: Nigeria’s DSS moved to suspend Sowore’s cybercrime trial until after the 2027 election; AAC rejects it and demands full withdrawal. Elections Watch: INEC confirmed Bilyaminu Shinkafi as ADC governorship candidate in Zamfara, ending an internal ticket dispute. Security & Crime: NDLEA seized N6.2bn in drugs in Lagos, including 47,200 captagon tablets hidden in Ghanaian soap. Regional Diplomacy: Thailand seeks stronger Ethiopia ties and expanded Africa engagement via the AU in Addis Ababa. Industry: GCCA Africa convenes cold-chain leaders in Johannesburg to strengthen the sector’s shared voice.
