Nine Roads Directorate employees graduated from Lerotholi Polytechnic’s Roads Technician Capacity Building Course, with a call for them to apply their newly acquired technical skills to improve service delivery.

The graduates received their certificates during a ceremony held at the Roads Directorate Training Centre in Teya-Teyaneng and the event also featured the signing of a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) between Lerotholi Polytechnic and the Roads Directorate.

Speaking at the ceremony, Minister of Public Works and Transport Mr. Matjato Moteane said it is refreshing to hear that the graduates had acquired knowledge and skills that would enable them to perform their duties more effectively.

He said the Ministry’s responsibility is to ensure that Lesotho is interconnected through a reliable road network, adding that his duty was to ensure that work within the Ministry is implemented.

Mr Moteane expressed satisfaction that the graduates are ready to apply their knowledge, saying this will contribute to the effective utilisation of the M120 million budget allocated to the Ministry to improve the lives of Basotho.

He stressed that the country could not achieve meaningful development if allocated resources are not properly utilized.

Road Directorate Director General Mr. Thabo Mokhoane said the organization was investing in capacity development to strengthen its technical workforce and improve service delivery.

He said the graduates had demonstrated potential and commitment throughout the programme, making them valuable assets to the Directorate.

Mr. Mokhoane urged the graduates to use the technical skills they had acquired to make informed decisions when carrying out their duties.

Parliament has adopted a report on the Uganda Railways Corporation (URC) with cases of financial mismanagement, missing wagons, disputed procurement deals and the loss and encroachment of railway land.

Presenting the report on Thursday, 03 September 2026, the Chairperson of the Committee on Physical Infrastructure, Hon. Mwine Mpaka said public funds meant to revive the railway had instead been used to benefit consultants and foreign firms.

“We have established a systematic failure where public funds meant to build local railway capacity and rehabilitate critical transport infrastructure were instead deployed to enrich individual consultants and foreign firms under the guise of technical expertise,” Mpaka said.

The report, adopted during a sitting chaired by Speaker Jacob Marksons Oboth focused on a Shs125 billion Spanish-funded railway project with a Shs20.8 billion capacity-building component.

The committee found that almost 90 per cent of the capacity building funds worth Euros4.33 million went to five foreign experts with some earning up to Euros32,500 (Shs140 million) a month.

The committee report also revealed that some URC employees were allegedly listed as foreign experts to access the higher payments while continuing to receive their normal local salaries of about Shs6.5 million.

The committee also found that Spanish firm, Consultrans S.A.U which designed the project feasibility study and assessed URC’s capacity needs, subsequently awarded the works contract to its sister company, Imathia Construction, through direct procurement.

Other irregularities included multi-day workshops being reduced to one-day refresher courses, Euros79,500 claimed for overseas back-office travel, project-funded second-hand pickup trucks being sold to staff and Euro60,000 meant for office furniture being used to equip offices occupied by Spanish consultants.

Mpaka said the findings raised serious questions about the management of URC assets.

“URC cannot account for its own land, its land titles or its rolling stock,” he said warning that the disappearance and disposal of wagons raised issues of criminal liability.

According to Mpaka, the corporation also holds 20,848 acres of land, of which 1,983 acres remain untitled and are affected by more than 24,653 encroachment cases. 

“A further 62 railway land titles misplaced by the Ministry of Finance, Planning and Economic Development during office relocations have never been returned despite reminders dating back to 2016,” Mpaka added.

The committee found that only 269Km of URC’s 1,266Km network is operational while fleet availability stands at 22 per cent for locomotives, 36 per cent for coaches and 30 per cent for operational wagons.

It also found that 112 wagons remain unaccounted for after being routed to a “virtual station” in Nyahururu, Kenya under the tracking system used by the former Rift Valley Railways.

“URC sold 152 wagons domestically as scrap and another 28 in Tanzania, but official records could not account for 82 of the scrap wagons resulting in a direct financial loss of Shs2.4 billion,” the report states in part.

The adopted report directs the Inspectorate of Government (IGG) to investigate and prosecute members of URC’s Adhoc Board of Survey, Contracts Committee and Procurement and Disposal Unit implicated in the irregular disposal of scrap wagons and the resulting financial losses.

The IGG was also directed to investigate former URC Managing Director, David Musoke Bulega, contract managers and members of management over payments for unexecuted services, questionable travel claims, unprocured software, vehicle misappropriation and contractual terms that resulted in URC losing ownership of the concrete sleeper plant.

In one of the recommendations, the Ministries of Lands and that of  Works and Transport were ordered to submit a joint railway-land recovery strategy within 30 days, including action, with police and military support where necessary, to remove 1,698 identified encroachers.

The Minister of State for Transport, Hon. Julius Maganda acknowledged the extent of URC’s decline but said government is now working to revive the corporation.

“Completely everything went down… Government is beginning to uplift Uganda Railways. Look at the report but support the agency because we are now moving in the right direction,” he said.

Hon. Joseph Ssewungu (NUP, Kalungu West) called for openness and frankness in discussions on the rehabilitation of the railway.

Speaker Oboth urged the ministry to replace URC’s old coaches and increase the frequency of passenger services.
“Replace those old coaches. I want to use that train to come to Parliament. We need some coaches. I have a stage just by my house,” he said.

The Minister of State for Industry said the Executive will respond to the report through a Treasury Memorandum.

Emirates (www.Emirates.com) is elevating the award-winning Premium Economy experience (https://apo-opa.co/4qZnpmu) even further with the launch of the world’s first electrically powered Premium Economy seat, featuring a full-height adjustable privacy screen between every seat. Debuting on newly received Airbus A350 aircraft, the new seat combines industry-leading innovation with elevated comfort, giving customers greater control over their personal space. 

Installed in the Emirates A350 Premium Economy cabin in a spacious 2-3-2 configuration with just 28 seats, the new seat represents the airline’s latest investment in continuously raising the bar for customer experience. The electric privacy divider extends to the full height of the seat – the first feature of its kind in Premium Economy cabins worldwide. Emirates Premium Economy seats are a comfortable 20” wide, and seat pitch is up to 39” on the A350. Seats also recline into a cradle position without intruding on the row behind, so that customers can comfortably sleep and relax inflight.

For Africa, this milestone marks a significant enhancement to the region’s travel offering. Emirates’ A350 Premium Economy is now available on daily services between Dubai and Entebbe, Tunis and Cape Town, giving customers in these markets direct access to the airline’s latest-generation cabin and a new level of comfort for travel.

Passengers can enjoy regionally inspired menus, a carefully curated premium wine programme, amenity kits and Emirates’ renowned hospitality, complemented by more than 6,500 channels of movies, TV shows, music, podcasts and games on the award-winning ice inflight entertainment system. Together, these investments underscore Emirates’ continued commitment to enhancing the travel experience for African customers while strengthening the continent’s connectivity to the world.

How does it work?

Customers can effortlessly raise or lower the divider using the seat controls and lock it into position, creating a more private and personal environment for relaxing, dining or working throughout the flight. The new seat marks Emirates’ first fully electrically powered Premium Economy seat, where customers can also adjust their preferred seating position at the touch of a button using the integrated Passenger Control Unit, with dedicated settings like lounge mode and meal mode.

Ergonomic comforts in Premium Economy

Generous meals and beverages in Premium Economy

The new seat builds on Emirates’ award-winning Premium Economy experience, where every element has been carefully designed to deliver an elevated journey from take-off to landing. Akin to a Business Class experience, customers enjoy gourmet, regionally inspired menus prepared by Emirates’ chefs and served on Royal Doulton fine china with linen napkins and stainless-steel Robert Welch cutlery. Meals are accompanied by a carefully curated selection of premium beverages, including Chandon Vintage Brut 2021, an exceptional Australian sparkling wine available exclusively to Emirates Premium Economy customers worldwide.

In Premium Economy, Emirates customers are also treated to a selection of acclaimed wines (https://apo-opa.co/4xdb1kj). From September, customers travelling on select routes may savour Chablis Premier Cru Jean-Marc Brocard 2024, which showcases the purity and mineral precision of one of Burgundy’s most celebrated Chardonnay producers, or La Parde de Haut-Bailly 2014, which offers the refined elegance of one of Bordeaux’s most respected Pessac-Léognan estates. October will also mark a first for Emirates, as Wiston Estate Brut NV becomes the airline’s first English sparkling wine, served exclusively in Premium Economy on UK routes. Together, they reflect Emirates’ continued investment in offering customers an exceptional wine programme, supported by more than US$1 billion invested in the airline’s wine portfolio since 2006. 

Thoughtful amenity kits with complimentary skincare

On long-haul flights, Premium Economy customers also receive exclusive reusable amenity kits designed in partnership with United for Wildlife (https://apo-opa.co/46Flj1s).

A report coming out of the University of Lagos (https://UniLag.edu.ng/) has examined the environmental effects of British colonial rule in Africa and has asked that this value be included in all reparations conversation. The report, titled CO2lonianism, Ecocide, Reparations, argues that the long-lasting ecological harm caused by British colonial rule on its former African colonies constitutes a separate and vast category of damage, distinct from the humanitarian harm of the slave trade, with a valuation that could exceed hundreds of trillions of dollars.

Download document: https://apo-opa.co/4gwXvmo

The report’s lead author, Professor J. G. Nkem Onyekpe, PhD, Head of the Department of History and Strategic Studies at the University of Lagos stated that: “The report documents that valuation exercises of comparable ambition and scale have already been attempted successfully.”. He cited a peer-reviewed 2022 estimate that valued resources appropriated from the global South through unequal exchange at over $10 trillion per year in 2015 alone. “If the same order of logic, that large-scale, structurally unequal appropriation of resources is capable of rigorous monetary valuation, were extended backward across the full duration of colonial rule and across the full set of affected African states, the resulting figure would run into the hundreds of trillions of dollars, and quite possibly beyond.” – he added. 

The report was presented to a distinguished audience of academics, legal experts, and public activists at the press conference in Lagos University on August 28, 2026. The report has now been formally submitted to the African Union’s newly established sub-commissions – the Committee of Experts on Reparations (AUCER) and the Legal Reference Group on Reparations (AULER). These bodies, now operational under the AU’s Decade of Justice and Reparations (2026-2035), are tasked with developing a harmonized methodology for evaluating and advancing a common African position on reparations claims.

Another case separately mentioned in the report argues, that land degradation in Kanungu District, Uganda found a statistically significant relationship between land degradation and farmer livelihoods (Spearman’s r = 0.530, p

The legal and institutional environment for such claims has shifted markedly since 2021, creating a unique window for advancing an African-led claim. Key developments include the adoption of a working legal definition of ecocide by the Independent Expert Panel, followed by binding or soon-to-be-binding instruments at the Council of Europe (2025) and the European Union (2024), and a proposal before the International Criminal Court. Most critically, the African Union’s own decision in July 2025 to establish an ad hoc committee to examine the classification of “massive destruction of environmental ecosystems” as a crime provides direct institutional support for the report’s premise.

Speaking about the report, “Colonial reparations cannot stop at counting the lives taken, the people enslaved, the resources extracted and indigenous survival altered. The ecological destruction that made those systems possible and whose consequences continue to shape Africa’s climate vulnerability today, must be recognized as part of the debt owed to African peoples.” said Ogunlade Olamide M., an Associate Director at CAPPA NGO.

The report also documents a directly on-point international legal precedent: the 1990s Certain Phosphate Lands in Nauru case before the International Court of Justice. In that case, a formerly colonized state successfully brought a claim against its former colonial administrator (Australia) specifically for environmental devastation caused by colonial-era phosphate mining. This landmark ruling provides a template, however imperfect, for what an African claim of this kind might look like in practice.

“The Nauru case proves that such claims are not merely theoretical but are grounded in established international law,” remarked Dr Karibi-Whyte, a legal expert familiar with the report. “Africa is now building on that precedent to address a harm that is orders of magnitude larger.”

The submission comes at a time of an increased interest for the reparations movement, with the African Union having declared 2025 as the Year of Reparations and formally established the AUCER and AULER mechanisms to guide the continent’s strategy. Authors hope this report to become an important document framing environmental repair as an essential element of restorative justice for the continent.

The global energy sector is shifting its gaze to Windhoek, Namibia, as final preparations conclude for the International African Energy, Oil and Gas Summit (IAEOGS 2026), scheduled for November 03–06, 2026, at the Hilton Hotel.

If you work in oil, gas, or energy, the 3^rd, -6^th of November 2026, on the calendar, you cannot afford to sit out. IAEOGS 2026 is the continent’s premier gathering for policy dialogue, dealmaking, and investment. It is where the crucial relationships, contracts, and multi-million dollar partnerships shaping Africa’s energy roadmap are built in real-time. This is not a conference you attend simply to listen it is an aggressive, high-stakes forum where operators connect, negotiate, and close.

Nigerian State Powerhouses Set to Storm Windhoek

In a major boost to the summit’s cross-border investment profile, the Executive Governors of Bauchi and Katsina states are leading high-powered delegations to showcase their states’ immense resource frontiers and secure major infrastructural funding.

• Bauchi State (Led by the Governor His Excellency Senator Bala Abdulkadir Mohammed): Governor Bala Mohammed is set to showcase Bauchi as a breakthrough player in Nigeria’s inland hydrocarbon landscape. Fresh off the groundbreaking of the ₦6.7 billion Bauchi Oil and Gas Academy in Alkaleri strategically positioned near the massive Kolmani Oil Prospect Bauchi will present ready-to-fund assets. The state is looking to scale up upstream development alongside regional midstream achievements, such as its newly commissioned Butane Energy LPG facility.
• Katsina State (Led by the Governor His Excellency Malam Dikko Umaru Radda): Governor Dikko Radda is storming Windhoek to accelerate green and industrial development. Following a monumental $500 million energy infrastructure partnership with Genesis Energy and the imminent delivery of the 10-megawatt Lambar Rimi solar project, Katsina is positioning itself as a leader in sub-national energy transition. Governor Radda will also present investment openings for harnessing the state’s 37 distinct solid mineral resources, including commercial-scale deposits of high-grade kaolin estimated at 3.4 million tonnes in Kankara.

CORAN Big Wigs Convene to Bridge the $130 Billion Gap

Compounding the heavyweight presence, top executives and “big wigs” from the Crude Oil Refinery-Owners Association of Nigeria (CORAN) are arriving in full force. With Africa losing roughly $130 billion in GDP annually to power grid inefficiencies and fragmented supply networks, CORAN members are utilizing the summit to unlock crucial feedstocks and finalize strategic cross-border refining partnerships.

The presence of domestic refinery owners aligns directly with current West African regulatory updates, particularly as agencies like the NMDPRA actively engage to resolve crude supply shortages and optimize regional supply stability.

Core Event Details

• Dates: November 03 – 06, 2026
• Venue: Hilton Hotel, Windhoek, Namibia
• Theme: Igniting Africa’s Energy and Land Governance Future

Delegate slots, executive exhibition spaces, and premium corporate sponsorships are filling rapidly. Secure your seat at the dealmaking table by registering via the official IAEOGS Portal.

Senior Angolan oil and gas leaders gathered in Luanda on Wednesday to support the launch of African Energy Chamber (AEC) (https://EnergyChamber.org/) Executive Chairman NJ Ayuk’s latest book, “Crude Oil: Power, Turnaround and Transformation in Angola,” a timely examination of the reforms, leadership and industry transformation reshaping one of Africa’s most important energy markets.

Among those lending their support to the launch was Sebastião Gaspar Martins, Chairman and CEO of Sonangol Group, alongside senior industry figures including Sergio Pugliese, AEC Executive President, and Dr. Adilson Mangueira Nelumba, CEO of COPIA Group Companies.

The launch comes as Angola’s oil and gas sector enters a new phase of reform-driven investment and activity. Recent developments include the $5.1 billion Greater PAJ final investment decision in June and a significant oil and gas condensate discovery by Chevron offshore Block 0 in August, while national oil production has remained around the one-million-barrel-per-day mark through 2026.

Martins underscored the significance of Angola’s institutional reforms, particularly the transfer of the concessionaire role to the National Oil, Gas and Biofuels Agency (ANPG), which he described as “far more than an institutional reorganization.” The reform enabled Sonangol to progressively transition from an organization combining state responsibilities with commercial activities into a company increasingly focused on competing, operating, investing, innovating and creating value.

Martins also stressed that Angola’s resource wealth must be measured by what it enables the country to build. “Natural resources by themselves do not transform a nation. It is the institutions, the people, the decisions, and the capacity to convert those resources into value that truly transform a country,” Martins said.

For Ayuk, the story is ultimately one of a country that chose to confront the structural challenges facing its petroleum sector and reshape its trajectory from within.

“Most of the time when we talk about the oil industry in Africa, it’s bad news,” Ayuk said at the launch. “Angola has had a turnaround story. Angolans wrote that history – it’s Angolan ingenuity at its best.”

He singled out the creation of ANPG as one of the most consequential developments of the past decade, arguing that the institutional reform fundamentally changed the way Angola approached its petroleum industry.

“The only model of success for reform and transformation is leadership,” Ayuk said.

For Angola, the next chapter of that transformation is increasingly focused on converting petroleum production into broader economic value and building a competitive domestic energy-services industry.

“Production is the starting point, not the destination. We understand that real value begins when we manage to transform a produced barrel into investment, infrastructure, industry, knowledge, employment, and opportunities,” Martins said. “For us, local content cannot simply mean replacing a foreign company with an Angolan company. It must mean creating competitive Angolan companies capable of providing services in Angola today and competing across Africa tomorrow.”

Representing the private sector, Nelumba highlighted the gradual growth of Angolan participation in the oil and gas industry following the introduction of the country’s local-content framework.

“After the enactment of Law 271/20, local content in Angola – though timidly – grew to between 12% and 15% that already works directly with operators or International Oil Companies… The Government has drawn up the plan; now it is up to us to execute it,” Nelumba said.

Pugliese likewise highlighted the impact of Angola’s reforms, saying, “These have been reforms that have transformed our oil and gas industry, and attracted both confidence and investment into our industry.”

With major projects moving forward and the country seeking to deepen investment, local content and value creation across the energy chain, “Crude Oil: Power, Turnaround and Transformation in Angola” arrives at a pivotal moment – documenting not simply Angola’s petroleum history, but a continuing transformation that could offer lessons for resource-rich economies across Africa.

Crude Oil: Power, Turnaround and Transformation in Angola is now available for purchase. Buy the book on Amazon (https://apo-opa.co/4dmWN99)
