If Alpha Conde has indeed been removed from power in #Guinea, it was likely the result of his flagrant disregard for constitutional terms limits and a growing permissiveness toward coups in the region. (1/2)

Malawi's new president and SADC Chair @LAZARUSCHAKWERA goes after UN Security Council and inequalities induced by the superpowers. He revives a battle Mugabe failed to finish.He has an opportunity to shine. https://t.co/4fiujsQiS8

The historical significance of this 21 Nov 2017 statement by Mnangagwa, not lost to research and scholarship; is that it was his FIRST EVER public rebuke of and challenge to the late former President Mugabe in 52 years; during which he claimed to be the only one loyal to Mugabe!

Word on the street: Tonse Alliance will walk back on K100, 000 tax free band. Tighten your budgets. Tax free band is at K45 000 and will be for a few more months. 'Treasury failing to balance books'! Akakhala President uyo ali kumaliro zake zinayela.
