O líder da UNITA, o maior partido da oposição que o MPLA a muito custo ainda permite em Angola, defendeu hoje o debate sobre a alternância, através do pacto de estabilidade, para “retirar os medos que ainda existem na sociedade” sobre os riscos do pós-eleitoral. Ainda não é Natal, mas Adalberto Costa Júnior não perde tempo a declarar que acredita no Pai… Natal. Adalberto Costa Júnior, que falava à saída da audiência com o Presidente do MPLA, neste caso nas vestes – por inerência – de Presidente da República, João Lourenço, avançou que a UNITA tomou a iniciativa de trazer a debate na sociedade o tema de estabilidade democrática, um documento elaborado desde Março e remetido ao chefe de Estado angolano.

Sierra Leone Telegraph: 19 May 2026: Africa Finance Corporation (AFC) the continent’s leading infrastructure solutions provider, today announced that its Board has approved a commitment of up to US$100 million to invest in Africa-focused technology fund managers. The launch comes at a pivotal moment for Africa. The continent’s digital economy is projected to contribute over US$700 billion to GDP by 2050, driven by a fast-growing, digitally connected population and accelerating enterprise adoption of technology. Yet despite this momentum, a persistent gap in long-term institutional capital continues to constrain the development and scaling of high-potential technology businesses across the continent. Through this commitment, AFC will deploy catalytic capital in leading Africa-focused technology Funds and in particular African-owned fund managers. In doing so, AFC aims to address the underrepresentation of local capital in venture funding by catalysing greater participation from African institutional investors and deepening local ownership within the ecosystem. Africa’s venture...
