Maponga Marara has now tears Emmanuel Macron to shreds, laying bare the French president's profound lack of integrity and denouncing him as nothing more than a common thief and a thug. With unflinching precision, Marara traces the arc of French history, from its rapacious colonial conquests to its modern-day machinations, and presents Macron as the rightful heir to that unbroken lineage of oppression. He reminds Kenya, which so recently rolled out the red carpet for Macron with the France Africa Summit, of an ancient and bitter wisdom: "When you eat with thieves, count your fingers."
Marara observes that France has never once apologized for the cataclysm it unleashed upon the African continent: the unspeakable brutality, the centuries of slavery, the systematic plunder disguised as civilization. Not a word of remorse. Not a gesture of atonement. And so he issues a warning, sharp as a blade, to every leader across Africa: any president seen shaking hands with Macron from this moment forward loses all claim to credibility on the continent. Their moral standing dissolves. Their right to speak for their people evaporates.
Tanzania is East Africa’s top coconut producer and the second-largest on the entire African continent.
The country harvests around 485,000 tonnes of coconuts every year, making the crop a vital part of its agriculture and rural economy.
The sector provides livelihoods for thousands of farmers and remains a major contributor to food security, commerce, and income generation in Tanzania’s coastal areas.

Here is a concern from one among many other Wananchi Entrepreneurs crying out.
As a Region #EAC @jumuiyashould create a mechanism to tackle disease outbreaks together head on in a Smart way - it's clear we are One☝️- No one is healthy unless All are well & healthy; given the porous borders, inter-relationships & trade linkages 👉
Also as hinted on - is to be Smart in managing our PR Vs Business/ economic impact for such outbreaks & Our National Assemblies like @Senate_KE@NAssemblyKE - you need to see how to curb these multiple street chaos & sensitize public about the economic bill the Country & Region suffers
Our Global PR managing is quite wanting & AFCON2027 is not far👉
You can see what USA is doing all it takes not to stifle the World cup by
sending their Ebola exposed citizens to Germany & now Kenya - all this will still paint our Region as a no go & catalyze visa rejections/ travel bans!🙋🏻♂️
As we push for full Integration to Political Federation🤝
Let's Act as one b'se we are One and here together for life 🙋🏻♂️👉
Over to you Our Leaders🤗 @KagutaMuseveni@GeneralNeva@SuluhuSamia@AbiyAhmedAli@EABCjumuiya@UgandaMediaCent@wekesa_amos@TourismBoardUg@JulzKagwa@EA_Tourism@RMalango2021

Africa has more billion-dollar companies than many people think.
At least 365 companies operating on the continent today generate $1 billion or more in annual revenue — up from 345 in the previous 2023 count.
Collectively, they now generate ~$1.5 trillion annually.
A few things stand out in the updated data:
• Since 2023 the number of these companies has grown modestly from 345 to 365, but their scale has grown dramatically — collective revenues are up 36% to $1.5 trillion and average revenue per company is up 32% to $4.1 billion
• Much of the revenue growth has been commodity-driven: oil & gas and mining alone account for ~70% of all revenue gains
• 30 companies now generate over $10B annually, up from 20 in the 2023 count
• South Africa remains the hub — 42% of these companies are headquartered in Africa's largest economy, which accounts for just 13% of the continent's GDP
• Africa's five largest economies — South Africa, Egypt, Nigeria, Algeria, and Morocco — together account for 50% of the continent's GDP, and 73% of these companies
• All regions experienced growth in the number of these companies, but West Africa experienced the fastest growth — it now accounts for 15% of these companies, up from 10% in 2023
• The homegrown share of billion-dollar companies is growing — 55% are local African-owned corporates (up from 50% in 2023); ~28% are subsidiaries of foreign multinationals (down from ~33% in 2023)
The data tells a clear story: Africa's large-company ecosystem is growing — in number, in scale, and in African ownership.
These companies matter disproportionately — to tax revenues, exports, productivity, and innovation. And more of them will be built across the continent as markets mature.
The question is whether the next wave of these African giants will be backed by capital as bold as the opportunity.

When I thought it’s just me who’s frustrated with cancellations, but how I wish @MinofHealthUG could understand how frustrating it is and the impact this miscommunication or this greed has on businesses. @DianaAtwine You can do better.
This house went viral recently. Why?
It's beautifully designed yet, it feels real! It shows the beauty of our villages and regions. It is unique.
This house is a case in point to show that you can achieve world class results with your upcountry home.
On top of it, all the furniture items are proudly made in Uganda by Mama Zaabu and her team @modernliving256.
The house was designed by merging the vision of the client and Mama Zaabu and her team.
Fully Ugandan from the plans to the sofas (and that's amazing if you ask me).
We need to be proud of the talent of this country! UG got talent my friends...
Go and and visit @RuhuukaHome, you won't regret it :)
I pray one day 2 or 3 of our leaders will pick up the mantle/ spirit & heed to the the forefathers &our shout for #African UNITY
