AGP Executive Report

Last update: 12 hours ago

Democracy Under Pressure: Burkina Faso’s junta leader Ibrahim Traoré told people to “forget” democracy, arguing “democracy kills,” as West Africa’s coup wave keeps reshaping politics and accountability. Press Freedom Watch: Reporters Without Borders says global press freedom hit a 25-year low in 2026, with over half of countries now rated “difficult” or “very serious,” widening the gap between Europe and much of the rest of the world. Energy Governance in the Region: Guinea’s energy minister and OMVG chair Laye Sekou Camara warned that cash-flow problems and contract disputes could delay major projects like the Sambangalou Dam and the OMVG interconnection, urging member states to clear dues and fund 2026 budgets. Sovereignty and Pastoral Politics: A Catholic bishop in Bissau urged newly ordained priests to stay close to people, reject “facade democracy” thinking, and avoid replacing pastoral presence with online life. Maritime Security & Guinea-Bissau in Focus: Obangame Express OE26, a major anti-piracy and anti-trafficking exercise, listed Guinea-Bissau among participating countries as the Gulf of Guinea remains a hotspot for sea crimes. Regional Mobility: Congo announced visa-free entry for all Africans from January 2027, adding momentum to wider African travel reforms.
