  • Dear Reader,


    Yes, the tariffs have grabbed attention as a spectacular act of economic self harm.

    Which is strange given the administration’s keenness for winning. So instead, we focus on Boulos’ big adventure: what’s behind Trump envoy’s DRC mission?

    Massad Farès Boulos, whose son Michael is married to Trump’s daughter Tiffany, arrived in Kinshasa on the evening of 2 April soon after being officially named as Trump’s ‘senior adviser for Africa’.

    United States President Donald Trump is hoping the Lebanese-Nigerian family member who helped him clinch the presidency can do the same for a minerals deal in Democratic Republic of Congo.

  • When ECOWAS summoned an emergency meeting in Accra, it was not to defend the future of West Africa — it was to defend itself from collapse. For decades, the organization presented itself as the symbol of African unity, promising economic prosperity, free movement, and democratic governance. Yet behind the polished speeches and grand summits, ECOWAS operated as little more than a political cartel — a clique of elites more interested in preserving their foreign alliances and internal privileges than uplifting the nations they claimed to represent. When Niger, Mali, and Burkina Faso turned their backs and walked away in January 2025, they did not just leave a bureaucratic club — they shattered the mask ECOWAS had worn for fifty years. As the African Diaspora saying goes, "I am because we are, and we are because I am."

  • INSIGHT
    Our daily Editor's picks, featuring the best of our reporting and analysis
    Dear Reader,


    The opposition are getting under the skin of the ruling parties in East Africa.

    Uhuru Kenyatta’s rallying cry for a youth-led revolution has reignited Kenya’s political wars, with President William Ruto’s allies accusing the former leader of inciting unrest to destabilise the government.

    Meanwhile, Tanzania’s opposition leader is on trial for treason; while supporters face attacks.

    With October polls ahead, what’s the ruling party afraid of?

  • Reader,


    Online scams are evolving in Africa with hackers exploiting data leaks to orchestrate new attacks, while social media is rife with fraudulent schemes.

    The phenomenon has grown in scale and complexity, according to Interpol. African states have identified a rising reliance on ransomware (malware that encrypts files and demands a ransom in exchange for a decryption key), fake transfer order scams and other online frauds.

    Here is a breakdown in infographics.

His work laid the groundwork for modern drone applications in various fields.
    Elaboration:
    Pioneer in Drone Technology:
    Jenkins is recognized for his early work in drone technology, creating a functional drone prototype in the 1980s.
    Sky Watcher Prototype:
    His invention, the Sky Watcher, is considered a groundbreaking drone prototype that paved the way for future advancements in unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs).
    Overlooked Contributions:
    Despite his groundbreaking work, Jenkins' achievements were largely overlooked and buried by systemic racism in the tech industry.
    Modern Drone Applications:
    Jenkins' innovations have influenced modern drone applications in areas like aerospace, surveillance, delivery systems, and military technology, according to a Facebook post.
    Legacy and Recognition:
    Recent efforts have been made to recognize Jenkins' contributions and honor his legacy as a pioneering inventor in the field of drone technology. One Instagram post notes that a statue of Jenkins was erected in Los Angeles to commemorate his resilience and brilliance
