ONU AG :Coup de tonnerre

La Présidente de la Namibie, Netumbo Nandi-Ndaitwah, a annoncé l'ouverture en octobre 2026, à l'île Maurice, du siège et du lancement des activités de l'Agence africaine de notation de crédit (AfCRA), dont le but sera d' évaluer la solvabilité des États, des collectivités, et des entreprises à travers l'Afrique et ainsi mettre fin à la dépendance aux agences de notations occidentales (Moody's, S&P, Fitch) dont les évaluations biaisées coûtent chaque année à l'Afrique plusieurs milliards de dollars.

The Ocean Viking rescued 78 people, including women, unaccompanied minors and two babies, one of which was newborn, this week.

We cannot be beggars in the international community when we have abundant resources. We must have the leverage—and even bring them to the point where they beg us. — Namibia Pres. Nandi-Ndaitwah

When Miss Uganda showed up at Miss World in Vietnam, she wore more than a gown. She wore all seven anatomical layers of a C-section which were turned into art. Designer, Mushirah Abdallah, made sure every stitch honored the scars mothers often carry in silence.
