Ebola Risk High Inside DR Congo No Pandemic Emergency WHO Says

The World Health Organization has said that the Ebola outbreak in the Democratic Republic of Congo poses a high risk inside the country but does not represent a global pandemic emergency. WHO Director-General Dr Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus made this statement on Wednesday after meeting with the agency's emergency committee. He confirmed that the outbreak is a public health emergency of international concern but said it does not meet the criteria for a pandemic emergency. The outbreak is concentrated in eastern Ituri province of DR Congo. Health officials have recorded about 246 suspected cases and 80 deaths so far. Two suspected cases have also been reported in neighbouring Uganda. WHO assesses the risk as high at the national and regional levels but low at the global level. The virus has likely been spreading for months before it was detected according to […]

AGN Chair Calls for Urgent Climate Adaptation Action Across Africa

Chair of the African Group of Negotiators on Climate Change (AGN), Nana Dr. Antwi-Boasiako Amoah, has called for urgent and practical measures to strengthen climate adaptation efforts across Africa. He warned that millions of vulnerable people across the continent are already experiencing the devastating effects of climate change. Africa Cannot Afford Weak Adaptation Responses Delivering the opening statement remotely at the Pan African Coalition for Adaptation and Resilience Workshop 2026 in Athi River, Kenya, Dr. Amoah stressed that Africa must move beyond fragmented and underfunded responses. “For Africa, this process must move adaptation from recognition to implementation and from promises to measurable progress,” he stated. The three-day workshop, organised by Power Shift Africa, brought together researchers, civil society organisations, women’s groups, youth movements and climate experts ahead of upcoming global climate negotiations. Climate Change Already Affecting Millions According to Nana […]

West African Youth Under Pressure: Jobs, Security, And Voice

Across West Africa, many young people feel they did everything right but still cannot see a clear future. They go to school, learn skills, and hustle every day, yet they face joblessness, insecurity, and leaders who seem distant from their struggles. This experience is common in Nigeria, Ghana, and Togo, even though their political and economic situations are different. Data and recent events show that youth frustration is not just emotional, but grounded in real hardship and broken promises. Nigeria: hustling through crisis In Nigeria, many young people wake up every day thinking about how to survive, not just how to succeed. They combine formal education with informal work, like riding motorbikes, doing deliveries, or selling online, while facing a weak currency, high fuel prices, and constant security threats. Afrobarometer findings for 2024–2025 show that young Nigerians aged 18 to […]

South African police say search for kidnapped toddler continues

South African police say the search is still ongoing for a kidnapped two-year-old girl, insisting that rumours claiming her body has been found are false. The toddler, identified as Omphile Sethole, was allegedly abducted from her home in Ga-Mabuela Village near Mokopane in Limpopo in the early hours of May 2. According to police, Omphile was taken while she was sleeping in a bedroom at her grandmother’s house, and family members only realised she was missing when they woke up and found a window open. A missing person case was opened at the Tinmyne police station, and a large-scale search operation involving specialised units, local residents and community structures was immediately launched. Limpopo police spokespersons and the provincial commissioner, Lieutenant General Thembi Hadebe, have appealed to the public to stop spreading unverified information, including social media posts alleging that the […]

81-year-old Museveni sworn in for seventh term as Uganda’s president

Uganda’s long-serving leader, President Yoweri Kaguta Museveni, has been sworn in for a seventh term in office at a ceremony held in the capital, Kampala. The 81-year-old, who has ruled the East African country since 1986, took the oath of office at the Kololo Independence Ceremonial Grounds on Tuesday, extending his time in power to more than four decades. Museveni’s latest term follows his victory in the January 2026 general elections, where he was declared winner with about 71 percent of the vote by the electoral commission. The poll was marred by reports of violence, arrests of opposition supporters and an internet shutdown, drawing criticism from rights groups and international observers. The inauguration was attended by several African heads of state and foreign dignitaries, with Uganda’s government saying at least 35 leaders had been invited for the high-profile event. Officials […]

Chad deports Nigerians fleeing jihadist violence

Chad has arrested and deported hundreds of Nigerians who fled jihadist violence in the Lake Chad region and sought safety in its territory, Nigerian and humanitarian sources say. Many of those affected are from states in northern Nigeria that have endured years of attacks by Boko Haram and other armed groups. According to Nigerian officials in Borno State, the Chadian authorities recently rounded up irregular Nigerian migrants in several towns and transported them to the border for return to Nigeria. Local sources say some of those detained had lived in Chad for years after fleeing earlier waves of insurgent attacks and had been surviving through informal work and begging. Humanitarian agencies report that thousands of Nigerians remain displaced around the Lake Chad Basin because of ongoing insecurity and repeated attacks by jihadist groups. Many crossed into neighbouring Chad, Niger and […]

Ghana pulls out of US aid talks over data demand

Ghana has withdrawn from talks on a new United States health aid deal after objecting to US demands for access to sensitive personal health data. The move is a fresh setback for President Donald Trump’s push to link parts of US foreign aid to wider data sharing agreements with partner countries. According to a source familiar with the negotiations, the proposed bilateral agreement would have provided about 109 million dollars in US health assistance to Ghana over five years. In return, Ghana would have been required to grant the US extensive access to its national health data systems, including real time information on disease trends and other patient level records. The government of President John Dramani Mahama decided that the conditions posed serious risks to privacy and national security and could breach Ghana’s data protection and health laws. After months […]
