AGP Executive Report

Last update: 7 hours ago

Health Crisis: A charity warns sub-Saharan Africa could run out of halothane, a key anaesthetic for child surgeries, with stocks unlikely to last beyond 2027—pushing facilities toward costlier alternatives and exposing long underfunded anaesthesia systems. Migration & Security: South Africa steps up police readiness ahead of a June 30 anti-immigration ultimatum, while Zimbabwe and Malawi mobilise repatriation support as hundreds wait in Johannesburg and thousands are sent home amid xenophobic attacks. Digital Push: Mozambique plans to connect all provincial capitals, SEZs and dense areas to 5G by 2027, using spectrum allocation to attract investment. Energy & Industry: South Africa’s deputy president meets hydrogen fuel cell leaders in China, linking PGMs to hydrogen tech transfer; meanwhile EV platform Spiro secures an extra $55m to expand battery-swapping across African cities. Economy Watch: The IMF concludes a Senegal visit, flagging fiscal and debt risks despite 2025 growth resilience. Sports & Culture: Rain and flooding alerts hover over Norway vs Senegal at MetLife; and Aliko Dangote headlines Angola’s sovereign investors forum in Luanda.
