AGP Executive Report

Last update: 6 hours ago

ICC & Sovereignty: Niger has formally started the process to withdraw from the International Criminal Court, accusing it of “selective justice” and saying the Rome Statute is being misused; the move takes effect after a 12-month period, and Niger becomes the third country after Burundi (2017) and the Philippines (2019) to quit. Burundi Connectivity: A China-aided project is pushing ahead with the rehabilitation and modernization of Melchior Ndadaye International Airport in Bujumbura, with work continuing through the night to expand and improve the country’s main air gateway. Regional Health Pressure: In the DRC, health authorities have lost contact with nearly 300 Ebola-positive patients, while Burundi is also raising alarms over rising drug use among young people and expanding rehabilitation support. Sports (East Africa): Burundi’s Egide Ntakarutimana set a national record in the 5000m at the Paris Diamond League, while Edmund Serem won steeplechase bronze for Burundi. Migration Stress in the Region: South Africa’s anti-migrant deadline has left hundreds of refugees and asylum seekers, including Burundians, stranded around reception centres in Durban, with families living in makeshift conditions.
