On Monday 19 October, RMB CEO Alice Uwase joined leaders from across Africa’s mining ecosystem in Accra for the #MiningInMotion Conference, hosted by the Asantehene, Otumfuo Osei Tutu II, through the Ashanti Green Initiative.

Opened by H.E. John Dramani Mahama, President of Ghana, the conference brings together leaders and stakeholders to advance dialogue on Africa’s minerals policy.

Speaking during a Ministerial Roundtable, CEO Uwase underscored the urgent need for greater collaboration among African countries, stronger exchange of good practices, and sustainable mining approaches that enable Africa to retain a greater share of the value generated from its mineral resources.

The conference runs from 19–21 October 2026.

On behalf of the government and people of South Africa, I offer warm congratulations to His Excellency President @PaulKagame and the government and people of Rwanda on securing a 10-year agreement to host the Formula 1 African Grand Prix.

South Africa shares in the pride with which Rwanda is preparing to fly the chequered flag for our continent with the hosting of a globally prestigious event at the planned Bugesera circuit from the early 2030s.

This contract is a recognition of the capabilities of the Rwandan nation and of our continent more broadly.

As host of the first Grand Prix on African soil in 1993, and organiser of other major global events, South Africa will be happy to provide any support we may be invited to share.

The F1 African Grand Prix is another lustrous addition to Rwanda’s growing collection of top international events, including the UCI-classified Tour du Rwanda cycling race.

Congratulations, Rwanda.

You are in pole position to make all of Africa proud and take motorsport to new heights.

Lake Kivu contains significant concentrations of naturally occurring methane and carbon dioxide dissolved in its deep waters. Rwanda is already generating electricity from this indigenous resource through operating methane-to-power projects, including KivuWatt and Shema Power. This demonstrates that a complex geological resource can be developed responsibly and converted into tangible value for the country.

But methane may not be the end of Lake Kivu’s energy story. #EAPCE27 #EastAfricanEnergy
