AGP Executive Report

Last update: 7 hours ago

Ebola Watch: The UN warns the Bundibugyo Ebola outbreak in DR Congo could cost Africa up to $3.6bn and threaten hundreds of thousands of jobs if it spreads, as cases rise to 1,307 and deaths to 377, with fears of spillover to neighbours including South Sudan. Opposition Politics: The Political Parties Council has registered a breakaway SPLM-IO faction as the “IO Party,” a move that could deepen splits ahead of South Sudan’s first national election since independence. Diplomacy: South Sudan’s foreign minister, James Pitia Morgan, met Israel’s Gideon Sa’ar in Jerusalem, reaffirming support for stronger Africa–Israel engagement and cooperation in mining, agriculture, trade, technology and training. Governance & Services: Eastern Equatoria swore in new county commissioners and state officials after President Salva Kiir approved appointments, strengthening local administration. Media & Peace: Journalists began training on conflict-sensitive and gender-responsive reporting, with organizers stressing election coverage must reduce tensions. Regional Security: INSA’s deputy director-general says cyber threats now cross borders, calling for stronger IGAD cooperation after the 2026 regional cyber drill in Addis Ababa.
