United Nations Economic Commission for Africa: Sierra Leone Telegraph: 19 May 2026: African leaders are sharpening their focus on digital sovereignty, warning that the continent’s economic future will depend not just on connectivity, but on who controls its data—and where it is stored. At a high-level roundtable during the 58th session of the United Nations Economic Commission for Africa Conference of Ministers, held in Tangiers, Morocco, in April 2026, policymakers and technology leaders signaled a decisive shift in Africa’s digital ambitions: from being consumers of technology to becoming architects of their own digital infrastructure and data ecosystems. Central to this shift is the idea of “sovereign data”—ensuring that African data is stored, processed and governed within the continent. Participants emphasized that digital independence is no longer optional; it is a prerequisite for economic security and national resilience. “Digital public infrastructure is as vital today as electricity,” said Américo Muchanga, Mozambique’s...

Bujumbura — Cardinal Luis Antonio Tagle, Pro-Prefect of the Dicastery for Evangelization, Section for First Evangelization and New Particular Churches, visited Burundi on Saturday, May 16, 2026. The Filipino Cardinal was warmly received at Bujumbura airport by a multitude of faithful, priests, and religious who came to express their gratitude. The Archdiocese of Bujumbura reported on its official website that it had mobilized parishes near the airport–Buterere, Gatumba, and Muramvya–as well as those near the Apostolic Nunciature, to give the Holy Father’s envoy a warm welcome. The main purpose of the visit was to celebrate the 75th anniversary of St. Peter Claver Major Seminary in Burasira, which has been training candidates for the priesthood since 1950. In a profound pastoral homily, Cardinal Tagle reflected on the mystery of the Last Supper and its implications for priestly formation, developing three spiritual pillars: ecclesial communion, community diversity, and prayer. Pope Leo XIV’s...

  Kabelo Masoabi  AS incidents of mob justice continue to rise across Leribe, courts in the district are increasingly being called upon to deal with cases in which suspected thieves are beaten or killed by angry community members.  Police and judges have repeatedly warned that taking the law into one’s own hands not only undermines the justice system but often ends in loss of life and criminal prosecutions against those involved.  Just this past week, eight men accused of killing a suspected thief in Ha-Maputsoe appeared before the Tšifa-li-Mali Magistrate’s Court on charges of manslaughter.  The accused — Sekonyela Sekonyela (39), Thele Chaole (48), Lefafatsane Rats’oane (52), Mosuoe Mpopane (38), Kefuoe Mokoto (46), Ramakoloi Raboroko (34), Thabo Mpusi (62) and Tieho Latela (39) — were granted free bail and the matter was postponed to 10 June 2026.  The court heard that the men allegedly assaulted an unnamed 33-year-old man suspected of robbery after he reportedly resisted attempts to restrain him.  According to Detective Police Constable Hlalele Khetsi of the Maputsoe Criminal Investigations Office, police received a report on 24 April 2025 of...

Parece una broma de mal gusto, pero es la realidad política de Guinea Ecuatorial. El Vicepresidente y heredero del régimen, Teodoro Nguema Obiang Mangue, ha utilizado sus redes sociales para denunciar, con calculada hipocresía, que el Instituto de la Seguridad Social (INSESO) se había convertido en el “botín de un club de familiares y amigos que lo manejaban como un patrimonio personal”. Nguema Obiang limita su «indignación» al periodo comprendido entre enero y diciembre de 2025, etapa en la que Moisés Angué Nso Nchama y Manuel Osa Nsue —entonces Presidente del Consejo de Administración— controlaban la institución. Según el hijo del dictador, en ese tiempo los contratos se adjudicaban arbitrariamente por afinidad. Si bien esta afirmación es indiscutible —dado el cuestionable historial de enriquecimiento de Manuel Osa Nsue en el Banco Nacional—, la investigación de Diario Rombe revela que la corrupción no nació con los llamados «tecnócratas del INSESO», sino...

When does the monsoon arrive in the Maldives? Ask the Maldives Meteorological Service and the answer is 8 May. Ask the centuries-old Nakaiy calendar – the indigenous almanac developed by ancestors who navigated by the stars – and the answer is 14 April, the day astronomer Abdulla Rasheed calls bihuroazu, the day of blessings. This year, the two systems agree that Hulhangu has arrived. But a developing El Niño, a warming Indian Ocean and a shifting climate may not let them agree for much longer.
