Currently home to around 1.3 million people, Bukavu’s population is expected to double by 2030 and triple by 2050. This rapid growth is only set to exacerbate the issues encountered by city residents – especially those living in informal settlements.

#Rwanda and #DRC have signed a peace deal, whatever that is. As I said once: “Minerals are a lucrative business, and so is war. In the eastern DRC, both are present, and therein lies the barrier towards any possibility for sustainable peace in the region." dailymaverick.co.za/article/2025-0…

Très peu le savent, mais en RDC, le cuivre et le cobalt ne sortent pas que des machines… ils sortent à la sueur du front, par le travail acharné de milliers de personnes🇨🇩✨

60.000 SIXTY THOUSAND. That's the latest estimation of the number of people who were slaughtered in El Fasher by the RSF these past weeks. The people of Sudan 🇸🇩 are suffering from genocide and the world is letting it happen. theguardian.com/global-develop…

This current *low* estimation would make El Fasher by far and large the largest single mass murder event of the 21st century, largest in 32 years actually (since Rwanda).

Hace 97 años, un general del ejército nacional azuzado por una compañía norteamericana, ordenó disparar contra los trabajadores en huelga en la plaza de un pueblo en el Caribe colombiano. La primera de muchas masacres por venir. Una conversación con el director de Foto Robada:

NEW: Soldiers tried and failed to overthrow President Patrice Talon in Benin. Coup plotters briefly seized state TV in Cotonou and announced a junta, but loyalist forces reportedly retook control within hours. Talon was evacuated safely.

Toute cette zone du littoral du Lac Tanganyika est d'une beauté impressionnante. J'ai retrouvé sur Facebook ces photos d'un périple que j'avais fait entre Baraka et Kazimia en 2012. On y voit des paysages à couper le souffle, des étendues naturelles qui, si la paix régnait

Force au peuple du Bénin et à ses institutions légitimes. L’échec du coup d’état célébré précocement par les adeptes du chaos, nous réjouit. Nous voulons d’une Afrique où les armes cèdent à la toge.

Huge growth to places like Nigeria, Liberia, Egypt, Algeria & DRC. All high quality exports helping commerce, basic industries & transportation sectors. Increase in African export is making up a huge chunk of the decrease to America.
