Ismaël Sombié à Bagré : vigne, riz et stocks stratégiques pour renforcer la souveraineté alimentaire

Le ministre d’État chargé de l’Agriculture, le commandant Ismaël Sombié, a effectué le 2 mars 2026 une visite à Bagré, dans la région du Nakambé, pour évaluer l’état d’avancement des aménagements hydro-agricoles et suivre la production de vigne et de cultures maraîchères en pleine campagne de saison sèche. Cap sur la production locale de vin À Bèga, le ministre a visité un vignoble de 4 hectares déjà exploités, avec une extension prévue de 6 hectares supplémentaires. Plus de 17 000 pieds de vigne irrigués ont été mis en terre et commencent à produire leurs premiers fruits. L’objectif est clair : lancer une production locale de vin afin de réduire la forte dépendance du pays aux importations.

Dorcas Affo-Toffey Builds New Classroom Block for Jomoro School

More than 400 pupils and teachers at Nana Avoh Nwiah Basic School in the Jomoro Municipality had for years been forced to teach and learn in a deteriorating wooden structure widely described by residents as a death trap. The unsafe building discouraged attendance and affected enrolment, as some parents feared for their children’s safety. Inside, there were no proper desks. Pupils sat on backless benches placed on dusty, uncemented floors. When heavy rains fell, teachers often shut the school because of the leaking, tattered roof. On days it remained open, more than 400 pupils were squeezed into a single classroom considered slightly safer than the rest of the structure. The open design of the building created constant danger. Teachers recalled an incident where a snake fell from the roof into a classroom during lessons. The situation was worsened by poor […]

Bonny Light hits 80 as US Israel strikes on Iran rattle oil markets

Nigeria’s Bonny Light crude has climbed to around 80 dollars per barrel as United States and Israeli strikes on Iran deepen tensions and disrupt energy trade routes. The price spike follows days of gains driven by fears that fighting involving Iran, a key Gulf producer, could choke shipments through the Strait of Hormuz, which handles about 20 percent of global oil flows. Traders and analysts said many tanker owners, oil majors and commodity houses have reduced or suspended movements of crude, fuel and liquefied natural gas through the narrow waterway, increasing demand for alternative grades like Bonny Light. Bonny Light, prized for its low sulphur content and suitability for gasoline and jet fuel production, has benefitted as buyers seek supplies less exposed to direct Gulf risks. The surge comes against the backdrop of Nigeria’s 2026 budget, which is benchmarked at […]

Ghana Cedi Gains Ground as Dollar Weakness Boosts Currency Outlook

The Ghanaian cedi is showing signs of recovery, supported by favourable external conditions and improving market sentiment. Over the past two weeks, the currency faced mild demand pressures at the start of the period, largely in line with market expectations. However, it regained ground in the latter half as broad “sell America” sentiment and sustained weakness in the United States dollar provided support to emerging and frontier market currencies. Interbank market performance In the interbank market, the cedi appreciated: 0.09% against the US dollar 0.86% against the pound sterling 1.16% against the euro It closed at mid-rates of GH¢10.97 to the dollar, GH¢14.81 to the pound, and GH¢12.93 to the euro. Retail market movement The gains also filtered into the retail segment. The cedi strengthened: 0.6% against the US dollar 1.29% against the pound sterling 1.11% against the euro It […]

Burkina Faso Records Successful Plantain Harvest Under Agricultural Self-Sufficiency Initiative

A new milestone has been recorded in Burkina Faso’s agricultural ambitions as officials and agricultural stakeholders carried out a plantain harvest in Bobo-Dioulasso on February 21, 2026. The activity was led by the technical coordinator of the presidential initiative for agricultural production and food self-sufficiency alongside leaders of NAFASO. The harvest forms part of ongoing efforts to transform farming practices and expand crop production in line with the country’s national development vision. On the experimental site operated by NAFASO, dozens of plantain trees have grown successfully, with several already producing mature bunches ready for harvest. According to Inoussa Ouédraogo, the harvest reflects the broader vision of Burkina Faso’s leader, Ibrahim Traoré, to rethink agricultural production and boost both food security and cash crops. He explained that the initiative aims to encourage the cultivation of crops that were once considered difficult […]

Dangote predicts naira could strengthen to ₦1,100/$1 in 2026

Africa’s richest man, Aliko Dangote, says the naira could appreciate to around ₦1,100 to the US dollar before the end of 2026 if current government policies and import controls are sustained. He spoke in Abuja during the launch of the Nigeria Industrial Policy, attended by Vice President Kashim Shettima and top private sector leaders. Dangote noted that although the naira is currently trading around ₦1,300–₦1,340 on the official market, recent reforms are already easing pressure on the currency. He argued that blocking “reckless” imports that can be produced locally, alongside tighter foreign exchange management, will help further strengthen the naira. “I can assure you that, with what I know, by blocking all this importation, the currency this year will be as low as ₦1,100 if we are lucky,” he said, while suggesting government might even need to slow the naira’s […]
