AGP Executive Report

Last update: 2 hours ago

Constitutional Referendum: Guinea-Bissau’s transitional authorities have set a national referendum for Aug. 30 to decide whether a new constitution—approved by the National Transitional Council—should come into force, with voters casting a “Yes” or “No” vote; the decree follows a Supreme Court opinion and is part of the junta’s roadmap toward elections on Dec. 6. Opposition Under Pressure: Local reports say the military court has returned the main opposition leader, Domingos Simoes Pereira, to pre-trial detention on alleged coup-related and financial charges, with his lawyers and party calling it politically motivated ahead of the Dec. 6 presidential race. Health Alert: Guinea-Bissau confirmed its first mpox case, activating national response mechanisms, reinforcing surveillance at borders, and urging public precautions while contacts are traced. Regional Security: Nigeria’s army leadership is pushing stronger West African military cooperation, including talks with Guinea-Bissau’s armed forces chief, as part of wider efforts against terrorism and transnational crime. Digital Finance (Regional): BanffPay in Liberia secured a Payment Service Provider license from the Central Bank, aiming to expand cross-border digital payments—an example of growing fintech momentum across the region.
