US Visa Processing Overhaul: From 1 August, the US will stop routine visa services at 25 African posts including Bujumbura, routing applicants to regional hubs. World Cup Asylum Claims in Canada: After the 2026 FIFA World Cup, 175 visitors applied for asylum in Canada, with 10 Nigerians among them. Climate Warning: The AfDB warns a possible “super” El Niño could cost Africa $10–$20bn and trigger mass migration.
