As of July 2026, the East African Crude Oil Pipeline (EACOP) connecting Uganda and Tanzania has reached 90% overall progress, with over 1,443 kilometres of pipeline welded across both nations. The project is right on the verge of its crucial technical start-up ahead of first crude oil exports.
Construction Milestones
Pipeline Progress: The overall midstream infrastructure stands at 90% completion as of late July updates from the Petroleum Authority of Uganda.
Upstream Readiness: The oil fields feeding the pipeline are also nearly finished. The Tilenga project is 74% complete with 234 wells drilled, and the Kingfisher project has reached 79% completion.
Timeline to First Oil: System testing and technical readiness remain on track for mid-2026, with the official first commercial oil exports expected to flow to the Port of Tanga in October 2026.
Legal and Environmental Resistance
Despite structural advancements, the project faces ongoing pressure:
UK High Court Case: In early July 2026, four Ugandan farmers filed a lawsuit in London’s High Court against EACOP Ltd. Backed by environmental groups, the lawsuit claims the UK-registered project developer violated Ugandan environmental laws protecting citizens' rights to a healthy ecosystem.
Ecological Concerns: New spatial analyses continue to warn about the risk of pipeline leaks affecting Africa's major freshwater networks, including Lake Victoria and Lake Alber

So, the Gulf states that once insisted the Strait of Hormuz belonged to everyone now seem comfortable with Iran collecting “voluntary fees” from ships using it. Funny how principles suddenly become flexible when politics changes.

@Ghaith2030ii @abdulslam2017 Arab They seem to have no enemy other than themselves and their foolish leaders. The way they humiliated their own people shut the doors to rational thinking. It is not right to blame someone else for the wrongs you have brought upon yourself.

بعض الدول العربية ( الخليج ) ساهمت بالفعل في زعزعة استقرار دولنا من خلال دعم جماعات مسلحة ومتمردين، وحتى منظمات إرهابية.

ما مستغرب من الكلام الرئيس بس مستغرب من حجم الانبطاح لدى بعض الأفارقة العاملين فيها عرب

[Sy Marcus Herve Traore @marcus_herve]

🛑🇧🇫- Captain Ibrahim Traore on why the government wants to control the flow of international students.

He said they are currently counting the number of Burkinabè students who are studying overseas. Out of 1000 students in Saudi Arabia 🇸🇦, over 800 of them left the country without the government knowing.

Our embassy over there has no record of them. And guess what those 800 people are studying? Charia law and Islamic laws and none of them is learning a trade.

So, he asked: where are they intending to apply those laws? In Burkina Faso 🇧🇫? Not here. Captain said he is going to bring them back home, and if they refuse, then they are no longer Burkinabè.

Will your country ever address this? Radical islam is a cancer that needs to be addressed. If we pretend as if it’s not a threat to Africa, we are just fooling ourselves. Terrorism started with them. Remember, the imperialists are always using religion and ethnicism to divide Africans.

@sultanwho No one else is responsible for your problems. Stop complaining and solve your own affairs. From what I can see, there are no men worthy of the name left in the Middle East.

@US2SOMALIA Have some shame, all of you, from you up to your president. We are Somali. There is a generation that will one day govern this country and soon take over its leadership, and it will hold you accountable for every insult and wrong you have committed against us.

That foreign predictions that terrorists would take over Somalia were driven by special interests. the courage and resilience of the Somali people and security forces proved those predictions wrong.🇸🇴🫡

[Abdulkarim Abdulle @karimabdulle]

Many have predicted that Al-Shabaab would take over Somalia at various points during the past decade. In 2011, at the height of the Ramadan Offensive, a well known journalist predicted that Mogadishu could fall to Al-Shabaab within a week. That assessment proved incorrect.

It miscalculated the local context and overlooked the key determinants shaping Somalia’s counterterrorism landscape. Within less than three months of that analysis, Al-Shabaab was forced out of Mogadishu in a decisive victory for the Somali Government.

Since then, analysts from different backgrounds have repeatedly attempted to forecast the trajectory of the group, often adopting or reinforcing Al-Shabaab’s narrative that Mogadishu was on the verge of falling.

Those assessments have consistently failed because they missed the central point. No analysis will ever be 100% accurate. However, when an analyst predicts the fall of Mogadishu on three separate occasions and is wrong every time, it raises important questions. Either the analysis insufficiently accounts for local contextual dynamics, including the country’s complex clan structures and conflict environment, or it reflects a prescribed narrative shaped more by client expectations than by objective assessment.

The developments of Spring 2025 were no exception. Those who predicted the fall of Mogadishu misread the operating environment, failed to understand the local context, and ultimately got their assessments pretty wrong.

The recent reports published in the public domain by various think tanks are no different. Many reflect prescribed, consumption driven narratives that do not correspond with realities on the ground.

Once again, these predictions will likely prove inaccurate, not because Al-Shabaab has abandoned its ambition to capture Mogadishu, but because they underestimate the resilience of the Somali people and the courage and determination of the Somali security forces.

She who is now shamelessly speaking about dividing our people is a young woman who was born and raised in a city where some families make a living by exploiting their daughters’ bodies in Dubai.

[Dr. mohanad Ahmed @DrM_AIM]

@RAbdiAnalyst Al-Shabaab has always been a foreign project, and it is coming to an end. I understand why that may disappoint some people. But many still mistake foreigners from neighboring countries who share Somali ethnicity for genuine Somali national interests.

@CrisisGroup The only person who could have fed you this information is Ahmed Diriye, the leader of Al-Shabaab. Anyone who’s been to Somalia since 2022 knows the country is safer than it has been in years. Are people supposed to ignore what they’ve seen with their own eyes?

[Crisis Group @CrisisGroup]

The Somali jihadist group Al-Shabaab, an Al-Qaeda affiliate, have made major advances in 2025, erasing government gains from two years prior.

Political fragmentation and a drop in foreign assistance is fuelling fears that the government could be overrun in the future. 🧵1/9

@mattrobinson @SenatorCooney shithole is a country where it’s legal for men to have sex with each other, and where even of its leaders are Pedophilia. Meanwhile, we all know that in Somalia, such acts are considered serious crimes that can even carry the death penalty.
