Africa presents a variety of facts that you might have never heard of ! From its crazy tectonic changes to the massive African Elephant, here are

South Africa's population reached 62 million in 2022. Gauteng has the highest population of 15 million, followed by KwaZulu-Natal 12,4 million. More than 80% of households had access to piped water while over 90% had access to electricity for lighting.

President Cyril Ramaphosa says while the data shows that strides have been made, these numbers will help the government identify how to deploy its resources.

Africa lags behind other developing nations both economically and by other related social indicators. There is widespread feeling in Africa that, in the words of Nyerere, 'Africa must run while others walk'. The lecture will consider the implications of this task on African scholarship.

South Africa's lockdown and the risk-adjusted approach to its easing, have been as strict as any in the world. What are the pros and cons, costs and benefits of the approach? Are there other options to consider?

I miss state impact of OOS. There is none other than a surrender roll.

Ten African Heads of State have issued a strong call to other world leaders to increase their funding to the International Fund for Agricultural Development (IFAD) or risk jeopardizing Sustainable Development Goal targets for eradicating poverty and hunger, particularly in Africa. IFAD aims to deliver an overall programme of work of US$10 billion for the IFAD12 period (2022–2024), with over half of investments allocated to Africa. This would help more than 140 million small-scale producers increase their production and raise their incomes through better market access and resilience, contributing to creating jobs and improving food security and nutrition for those most at risk of being left behind.

The acting head of group capital at South Africa’s Eskom has resigned, the state-owned power utility said on Tuesday, adding to a growing list of executives leaving the company. Spokesman Khulu Phasiwe said Prish Govender did not give a reason for his resignation, which is with immediate effect.

South Africans should brace themselves for another interest rate hike this week. Economists expect at least a 50 basis point increase when the Reserve Bank's Monetary Policy Committee announces its decision on Thursday. This is on the back of rising inflation and developed countries' central banks raising interest rates.

Colonization has pushed African cuisine into the shadows. These chefs, farmers, and business owners are on a mission to put it in the spotlight.

Often the continent of Africa conjures images of starvation, when in reality the African diet is perhaps the most balanced diet in the world, packed with nutrient-dense foods like cassava, fonio, leafy greens, and vibrant vegetables.

So why is there such a disparity between reputation and reality? Colonization has pushed African cuisine and crops into the shadows. For too long, African food has been undervalued.

These chefs, farmers, and entrepreneurs are combining new technology with traditional farming methods to increase yields in the face of climate change, enhance global awareness about the history and value of African food and ultimately create jobs and wealth.

The Nigerian government has been asked to consider assisting other West African countries where there are still Ebola cases to ensure that the containment efforts in Nigeria were not overturned by new cases.

Ahead of the proposed resumption of schools on September 22, the President, Proprietors of Private Schools in Lagos State, Yomi Otubela, made the suggestion on Sunday on Channels Television's programme, Rubbin' Minds.

Mr Otubela stressed that if the Ebola cases in other West African countries are not contained, there are chances that another person already infected could come into Nigeria.

He pointed out that most private schools in Lagos State had put in place, facilities that would encourage regular hand washing and other good hygiene habits.

BBC Africa Eye explores the impact of ‘The Baby Stealers’ investigation in Kenya’s fight against child trafficking.

Click here to subscribe to our channel 👉🏽 http://bit.ly/subscribetoafrica

In 2020, #BBCAfricaEye exposed a network of child traffickers who preyed upon some of Kenya’s most vulnerable women. The traffickers ranged from homeless drug addicts to organised criminals and even corrupt medical staff. At the time, our undercover investigators managed to infiltrate underground rings selling stolen children for as little as 400 USD. After the broadcast of the ‘The Baby Stealers’, officials made public promises of firm government action and some of those involved in the underground trade were arrested.

Three years on, Africa Eye reporter Njeri Mwangi revisits some of Nairobi’s poorest neighbourhoods to find out how much impact the film had in the fight against child trafficking in Kenya. Has justice been served? And how much have things really changed since?
