AGP Executive Report

Last update: 2 hours ago

Ebola Crisis in East Africa: Health experts warn the Bundibugyo Ebola outbreak in DR Congo is likely far worse than official figures, with suspected cases now above 1,000 and contact tracing reportedly reaching only about 20%, while the EAC is pushing a coordinated regional response. Regional Coordination: East African Community health ministers meet June 1–2 (virtual) to align surveillance, mobile labs, infection control, and risk communication as cases spread into Uganda and fears grow for Burundi and neighbors. Burundi Extradition Appeal: Great Lakes citizens and human rights defenders have sent an open letter urging Burundi’s President to oppose any extradition of Congolese researcher Babunga Benjamin Watuna to the DRC, citing rights and political persecution concerns. Refugee Land Restitution Tensions: Returnees from Tanzania say “voluntary return” hides fear and intimidation over land restitution, with some avoiding home areas and settling in border districts. Sports—Burundi Football: Former striker Saido Berahino has joined the Burundi national team coaching staff ahead of an international friendly in Morocco. Infrastructure—Cross-border Link: Kenya’s KeNHA starts feasibility work on the Mau Summit–Eldoret–Malaba highway (PPP), aiming to strengthen transport links including Burundi.
