Corrupción, conflicto, hambre, migración, dependencia. La narrativa sobre África está atrapada en las mismas historias negativas. “La vemos a través de una ventana estrecha. El fragmento que entra es real pero no es todo", dice @LopesInsights @blecumberri

[Cyril Ramaphosa 🇿🇦 @CyrilRamaphosa]

I offer my deep condolences to the family, friends and fellow activists of Imam Muhsin Hendricks whose life was brutally ended by gunmen in Gqeberha this past weekend.

While we await the outcome of investigations, I am concerned about the reported likelihood of this being a hate crime against a religious leader who championed the rights and protection of LGBTQ+ Muslims and compatriots more broadly.

Like all South Africans, I anticipate that the perpetrators will be brought to book for this heinous attack.

@TheMutaD Daniel, Ugandan agricultural products are clean, organic, tasty, and deserve to be tasted by consumers worldwide! I recently received a packet of coffee as a gift, alongside honey - some of the best I've had ❤️ Sad that even here in SA we import non-African coffees

[DBwambale @TheMutaD]

For coffee farmers. Pay attention to this post made a few months ago.

N80 million to a Space Agency for pregnancy sensitization?

This is @nassnigeria members looting through budget insertions! They are inserting projects for personal gain.
