Fun fact: While all 3 cities we held a premiere in showed us a lot of love, we got by far the most love in Dar es Salaam.
This was my most technically challenging professional project to date, and while we weren't doing it for the reception (we have an ideological purpose that supercedes such concerns), the love we've received from our audiences across the continent hasn't hurt at all.
We promise to keep on doing our best 🙏🏾
🇹🇿 Tanzania Moves Closer to a Global Critical Minerals Breakthrough✨️
The Kabanga Nickel Project, one of Tanzania’s most strategic mining and industrial investments, is now significantly closer to implementation.
Following a high-level briefing to H.E. President Samia Suluhu Hassan, both the Government of Tanzania and project investors have reaffirmed their commitment to advancing a project that will not only unlock one of the world’s most important nickel resources but also maximize value addition and beneficiation within Tanzania.
Key highlights:
✅ Progress made towards finalizing project implementation arrangements
✅ Strong commitment to local beneficiation and industrial value addition
✅ Potential to create thousands of jobs and strengthen local content participation
✅ Expected contribution to technology transfer, tax revenues, dividends, and industrial development
✅ Positioning Tanzania as a key player in the global supply chain for critical minerals essential for clean energy technologies
The message from stakeholders is clear: “The mine is coming. The beneficiation is coming.”
Under the leadership of President Samia Suluhu Hassan, Tanzania continues to advance a vision that prioritizes responsible resource development, industrialization, and greater national value capture from its mineral wealth.
The Kabanga Project represents more than a mining investment, it is a catalyst for economic transformation, industrial growth, and Tanzania’s emergence as a strategic global supplier of critical minerals for the energy transition.

Mwaka huu Tanzania na Singapore tunaadhimisha miaka 45 ya uhusiano wetu ambapo kwa upekee leo tumempokea Rais wa Singapore, Mheshimiwa Tharman Shanmugaratnam, Ikulu jijini Dar es Salaam. Hii ni historia na heshima kwa nchi yetu kwani ni mara ya kwanza Rais wa nchi hiyo kutembelea Tanzania, hatua inayodhihirisha dhamira yetu ya kukuza ushirikiano kwa manufaa ya nchi zetu na watu wake.
Baada ya mazungumzo yetu, tumeshuhudia utiaji saini mkataba na hati nne za makubaliano zinazolenga kufungua fursa mpya katika biashara, uwekezaji, kuwezesha vijana kupitia elimu ya ujasiriamali, ujuzi na ubunifu hasa katika uchumi wa kidijitali. Aidha, tumekubaliana kuimarisha ushirikiano katika sekta ya kilimo sambamba na kuanzisha mfumo wa pamoja wa mashauriano utakaosaidia kuratibu utekelezaji wa makubaliano yetu na kushughulikia changamoto kwa ufanisi na kwa wakati.
Katika hatua nyingine, nimeikaribisha Singapore kufungua ubalozi wake nchini ili kurahisisha utekelezaji wa makubaliano haya na kuimarisha zaidi uhusiano wetu.
🚨 POLITICISING THE FIFA WORLD CUP
US authorities subject Lions of Teranga to humiliating search after the Senegalese team landed in US soil for the FIFA World Cup.
Senegal is one of the 10 African teams participating in this year's World Cup.
The others are 🇩🇿 Algeria 🇨🇻 Cape Verde (Cabo Verde) 🇨🇩 Democratic Republic of the Congo 🇨🇮 Ivory Coast (Côted'Ivoire) 🇪🇬 Egypt 🇬🇭 Ghana 🇲🇦 Morocco 🇿🇦 South Africa & 🇹🇳 Tunisia
The Senegalese 🇸🇳 delegation gets this treatment on arrival in the USA. Full tarmac searches, shoes off, bags turned inside out like criminals.
This is straight up humiliation and a disgrace. They’d never put white boys through the same.
