AGP Executive Report

Last update: 5 hours ago

Ebola Surge in DR Congo: Africa CDC data says the fast-spreading Ebola outbreak is still accelerating, with deaths already above 2,500 and estimates suggesting only 30–40% of cases may be detected—raising fears it could outgrow the 2014–16 West Africa record. El Niño Weather Shock: Britain’s Met Office warns this year’s “unprecedented” El Niño could drive the wettest, stormiest conditions since Storm Desmond-era flooding, with 2027 tipped as the hottest year on record. Ceuta Migration Fallout: Spain is moving migrants from makeshift camps in Ceuta and police have arrested smuggling suspects charging up to €9,000 per crossing, as families still search for missing relatives. Kenya–Dangote Refinery Deal: Kenya says it will raise $500m locally to buy a 10% stake in Dangote’s planned Lamu refinery, while the wider region is offered a combined 30% equity. Nigeria Education Leadership: NECO’s Prof. Dantani Wushishi elected vice-president of AEAA and Nigeria wins the 2027 AEAA conference hosting rights in Abuja. Digital Finance Upgrade: Ericsson and MTN Group Fintech complete cloud-native mobile money migration across key markets, aiming for faster performance and wider digital services. Green Bonds Boost: Centum Re gets Moody’s top sustainability score for its green bond framework, positioning it to finance property projects in Kenya and Uganda.
