AGP Executive Report

Last update: 11 hours ago

Ebola Response in Congo: Emergency aid has reached Bunia in northeastern Congo, with an EU cargo plane delivering masks, gloves, boots and medicines as health workers battle a fast-moving Bundibugyo Ebola outbreak amid insecurity, shortages and distrust; the WHO has declared it a global public health emergency, with Congo reporting over 1,000 suspected cases and at least 220 deaths, and Uganda confirming cases too. Ebola Politics and Quarantine Plans: A Kenya court has suspended a U.S. plan to set up an Ebola quarantine facility for Americans exposed abroad, after petitions raised concerns about public participation and high-containment capacity, while U.S. officials say a Kenya facility is still being prepared. AfDB Annual Meetings—Financing Push: At the AfDB meetings in Brazzaville, the African Economic Outlook projects Africa’s growth at 4.2% in 2026 and urges countries to mobilize more capital at scale, including blended finance and multilateral guarantees. Water and Sanitation Funding Gap: The UN Economic Commission for Africa called for urgent action to close Africa’s water and sanitation financing gap, warning current investment is far below what’s needed for clean water and safe sanitation. Debt Management Watch: Angola announced results of a $750m tender offer for its 2028 and 2029 Eurobonds, aiming to ease public finance pressure.
