ZIMBABWE TOURISM EXPANSION, MINING REVENUE AND ECONOMIC REFORMS DOMINATE THE NATIONAL AGENDA

ZIMBABWE TOURISM EXPANSION, MINING REVENUE AND ECONOMIC REFORMS DOMINATE THE NATIONAL AGENDA

Zimbabwe is seeking to strengthen economic growth through tourism, mining, investment and infrastructure while confronting persistent challenges involving public finances, informal trading and economic governance.

The country's latest economic agenda is closely connected to President Emmerson Mnangagwa's Vision 2030 programme, which aims to transform Zimbabwe into an upper-middle-income economy.

TOURISM TAKES CENTRE STAGE

Zimbabwe has recently hosted the Sanganai/Hlanganani World Tourism Expo in Masvingo, with the 2026 edition running from 9 to 12 September.

The event is significant because Masvingo is home to Great Zimbabwe, one of Africa's most important archaeological and cultural sites.

The Zimbabwe Tourism Authority has described the decision to take the tourism expo to different provinces as part of the government's devolution strategy.

The objective is to ensure tourism investment reaches areas outside Harare and Victoria Falls.

GREAT ZIMBABWE

Great Zimbabwe provides Zimbabwe with an exceptional tourism asset.

The stone city is one of Africa's most important pre-colonial archaeological sites.

Its presence gives Zimbabwe an opportunity to develop cultural tourism alongside wildlife tourism.

The combination of Great Zimbabwe, Hwange National Park, Victoria Falls and the country's other attractions provides a diverse tourism portfolio.

TOURISM ARRIVALS

Zimbabwe's tourism sector has been recovering strongly.

The government wants to use increased visitor numbers to generate foreign exchange, create jobs and encourage investment in hotels, restaurants, transport and entertainment.

However, tourism growth requires reliable infrastructure.

Airports, roads, electricity, water and digital connectivity all influence visitors' experiences.

MINING REMAINS CENTRAL

Mining remains the backbone of Zimbabwe's export economy.

Gold, platinum, lithium, diamonds and other minerals provide significant foreign exchange.

Zimbabwe has become particularly important in the African lithium sector because of growing global demand for battery minerals.

However, the government faces a major challenge: ensuring that increased mining activity generates sufficient public revenue.

Recent reporting in Zimbabwe has questioned why the country's mining boom has not translated into greater government income, with royalties contributing only a small proportion of expected state revenue.

THE LITHIUM OPPORTUNITY

Lithium has attracted substantial international interest because it is essential for many battery technologies.

Zimbabwe's deposits could become strategically important as global manufacturers seek secure supplies of critical minerals.

But exporting raw minerals provides less economic value than processing them domestically.

The government has therefore encouraged mineral beneficiation and local processing.

The long-term objective is to create industrial value chains around Zimbabwe's mineral resources.

INFORMAL ECONOMY

Another major challenge is the rapid growth of informal trading.

Municipal authorities in several cities are attempting to regulate street vending and move traders into designated areas.

Harare has recently prohibited certain forms of open-air activity in central commercial areas, while other municipalities have intensified enforcement against informal vendors.

Authorities argue that unregulated vending can obstruct roads, create sanitation problems and reduce formal business activity.

Traders, however, depend on informal markets for their livelihoods.

The challenge is therefore to regulate rather than simply eliminate the informal economy.

HEALTH CARE REFORM

Zimbabwe is also restructuring its healthcare administration.

The Ministry of Health has established a new Directorate of Medical Services intended to improve clinical operations, emergency care and specialist services.

Healthcare reform is important because Zimbabwe has historically faced shortages of medicines, equipment and healthcare workers.

Improving management and coordination could help strengthen the public healthcare system.

ENERGY AND INFRASTRUCTURE

Zimbabwe continues to require major investment in electricity generation and transmission.

Hydropower, coal and renewable energy are all part of the country's energy strategy.

Solar power offers particularly strong potential because Zimbabwe receives high levels of sunlight.

Expanding solar generation could reduce pressure on the national grid and improve electricity reliability.

INVESTMENT

Zimbabwe is also seeking stronger investment relationships.

Recent cooperation between the Zimbabwe Investment and Development Agency and international partners has focused on investment promotion and trade.

The country wants to attract investment into tourism, mining, manufacturing, agriculture and infrastructure.

For investors, however, policy consistency remains important.

Businesses require clear regulations, access to foreign currency and predictable taxation.

AGRICULTURE

Agriculture remains essential to Zimbabwe's economy.

The country has historically been a major agricultural producer in the region.

Tobacco remains an important export crop, while maize, wheat, horticulture and livestock support domestic food security.

Climate change and drought remain major threats.

Irrigation investment will therefore be essential if Zimbabwe wants to reduce dependence on rainfall.

THE VISION 2030 CHALLENGE

President Mnangagwa's government has repeatedly presented Vision 2030 as the framework for transforming Zimbabwe into an upper-middle-income economy.

The ambition is significant.

But achieving it requires more than mining and tourism.

Zimbabwe needs industrialisation, job creation, infrastructure investment, agricultural productivity, strong institutions and stable monetary conditions.

Zimbabwe has substantial economic assets.

It possesses mineral resources, agricultural land, tourism attractions, a skilled population and strategic access to southern African markets.

The challenge is converting these advantages into broad-based prosperity.

Tourism events such as Sanganai/Hlanganani can help attract international visitors and investors.

Mining can generate foreign exchange.

Agriculture can support food security.

Manufacturing can create jobs.

But all four sectors require reliable infrastructure and sound economic policy.

Zimbabwe's next development phase will therefore depend on whether the country can move from exporting raw resources toward creating greater value inside the national economy.

If that transformation succeeds, tourism, mining, agriculture and manufacturing could provide the foundation for stronger growth and employment.

The country's challenge is now to ensure that economic growth is translated into measurable improvements in the lives of ordinary Zimbabweans.

ZAMBIA PRESIDENT HICHILEMA BEGINS SECOND TERM AS ELECTION CONTROVERSY RAISES QUESTIONS ABOUT DEMOCRACY

KASiBCAFRiCA©®™

ZAMBIA PRESIDENT HICHILEMA BEGINS SECOND TERM AS ELECTION CONTROVERSY RAISES QUESTIONS ABOUT DEMOCRACY

Zambia has entered a new political chapter following the swearing-in of President Hakainde Hichilema for a second term.

Hichilema's victory in the August 2026 election has been followed by significant controversy, with opposition groups and observers raising concerns about the conduct of the election and the country's democratic trajectory.

The political debate comes at a crucial moment for Zambia's economy.

A SECOND TERM

Hichilema first came to power in 2021 after defeating long-time ruling-party candidate Edgar Lungu.

He campaigned on economic reform, improved governance and restoring international investor confidence.

His second-term victory gives him another opportunity to pursue those policies.

But the election controversy means the new administration faces pressure to rebuild political trust.

ELECTION CONTROVERSY

International observers raised concerns about the August election.

Reuters reported allegations involving vote-counting, military deployment at polling stations, arrests of opposition figures and restrictions affecting access to courts.

The government and its supporters have disputed aspects of the criticism.

Nevertheless, the controversy is likely to remain an important issue throughout the second term.

A stable democracy requires not only elections but also public confidence in electoral institutions.

OPPOSITION LEADER CHARGED

Opposition politician Brian Mundubile has faced treason charges following the election.

The charges have intensified concerns among opposition groups about political freedoms.

The government must therefore demonstrate that legal proceedings are handled independently and according to the law.

How the administration handles opposition politics could significantly affect Zambia's international reputation.

COPPER REMAINS THE ECONOMIC ENGINE

Zambia's economic future remains closely linked to copper.

The country is one of Africa's leading copper producers and is seeking to increase production as global demand for the metal rises.

Copper is critical to electric vehicles, renewable energy systems, power grids and electronics.

This gives Zambia a potentially valuable position in the global energy transition.

However, greater copper production must generate broad economic benefits.

That means stronger tax collection, local processing, employment and investment in communities around mining operations.

INVESTMENT

Despite political concerns, investors remain interested in Zambia.

The country's copper resources are strategically important to both Western and Asian economies.

China has a major historical role in Zambia's mining and infrastructure sectors.

The United States and other Western countries are also increasing engagement because of the importance of critical minerals.

Zambia therefore has the opportunity to use competition between international investors to secure better terms for national development.

DEBT RESTRUCTURING

Zambia's economic recovery has also been linked to its debt-restructuring process.

The country became one of the most prominent African examples of sovereign debt distress after defaulting on external debt.

Hichilema's administration has worked with international creditors to restructure obligations and restore financial stability.

Progress on debt management is essential because high debt reduces the government's ability to spend on infrastructure, education and healthcare.

ENERGY

Electricity supply remains another important issue.

Zambia relies heavily on hydropower.

Drought can therefore create major electricity shortages.

Climate change increases this risk because rainfall patterns can become less predictable.

The country needs to diversify its energy system by expanding solar, wind and other renewable sources.

AGRICULTURE

Agriculture is another major opportunity.

Zambia has large areas of potentially productive farmland and is capable of producing maize, wheat, soybeans and other crops.

Investment in irrigation could reduce dependence on rainfall.

Better storage and roads could also reduce post-harvest losses.

Agriculture could become a major source of employment if value-added processing expands.

REGIONAL IMPORTANCE

Zambia's geographic position gives it strong regional importance.

It borders eight countries and provides trade corridors connecting southern and central Africa.

Improved rail and road infrastructure could make Zambia an important logistics hub.

THE SECOND TERM CHALLENGE

Hichilema's second term therefore begins with a mixture of opportunity and political risk.

Economically, Zambia has copper, agricultural potential and strategic international partnerships.

Politically, however, the administration must demonstrate that economic progress can coexist with democratic accountability.

Investors want stability.

Citizens want jobs and better services.

Opposition parties want political space.

The international community wants credible democratic institutions.

If Hichilema can strengthen all four areas, Zambia could enter a stronger period of economic development.

If political tensions deepen, the country's democratic reputation could become an obstacle to the economic gains the government wants to achieve.

The second term will therefore be judged not only by economic growth, but by the quality of Zambia's democratic institutions.

UGANDA DEATH OF KING OYO TRIGGERS SUCCESSION DISPUTE AS TOORO KINGDOM HOLDS HISTORIC BURIAL

KASiBCAFRiCA©®™

UGANDA DEATH OF KING OYO TRIGGERS SUCCESSION DISPUTE AS TOORO KINGDOM HOLDS HISTORIC BURIAL

Uganda has been gripped by national attention following the death and burial of King Oyo Nyimba Kabamba Iguru Rukidi IV of the Tooro Kingdom.

The monarch died on 27 August 2026 at the age of 34 after receiving treatment for cancer in the United States.

King Oyo became internationally famous in 1995 when he ascended the throne at only three years old, becoming one of the world's youngest reigning monarchs.

His death has generated enormous public interest because of his long reign and the cultural significance of the Tooro Kingdom.

THE BURIAL

King Oyo was buried in Fort Portal on 12 September after a period of mourning.

Traditional ceremonies accompanied the burial, reflecting the importance of cultural institutions within Uganda.

Although Uganda is a constitutional republic and traditional kings do not exercise formal political power, the kingdoms retain significant cultural and social influence.

The Tooro Kingdom is one of Uganda's most important traditional institutions.

SUCCESSION DISPUTE

The burial was complicated by an unexpected succession dispute.

A royal succession committee selected Oyo's cousin, Prince Edward Rukidi Kijanangoma, as the new king.

However, members of Oyo's immediate family argued that the late king had left a will identifying a previously unknown son as his successor.

The alleged son has not been publicly identified or formally established as heir.

Oyo was unmarried and had never publicly acknowledged a child, making the claim particularly controversial.

GOVERNMENT INVOLVEMENT

The Ugandan government became involved in efforts to prevent the dispute from disrupting the burial.

The government had an interest in ensuring that traditional procedures were respected while preventing the disagreement from escalating.

Uganda's leadership called for calm and a credible process to resolve the succession question.

The dispute demonstrates the complicated relationship between traditional authority and modern legal institutions.

THE IMPORTANCE OF TOORO

The Tooro Kingdom covers an important part of western Uganda.

The region has major agricultural potential and is also increasingly important for tourism.

Fort Portal and the surrounding areas provide access to national parks, crater lakes, mountains and cultural attractions.

The kingdom's cultural heritage therefore has economic importance.

Tourism linked to the royal institution contributes to the wider regional economy.

KING OYO'S LEGACY

Oyo became king as a child and spent more than three decades in the public spotlight.

He eventually became an international figure and served as a United Nations goodwill ambassador focused on HIV/AIDS issues.

He also developed relationships with international political leaders and participated in diplomatic and cultural events.

His unusually long reign for a monarch who began as a child made him a unique figure in contemporary African history.

TRADITION AND MODERNITY

The succession dispute raises broader questions about how traditional institutions operate in modern African states.

Traditional kingdoms often have ancient succession rules that exist alongside national constitutions and modern courts.

When disputes arise, questions can emerge about which rules take precedence.

In Tooro's case, the situation involves customary law, family claims, royal traditions and potentially legal documentation.

THE ECONOMIC DIMENSION

Succession is not only symbolic.

Traditional kingdoms may control significant estates, cultural assets and institutions.

King Oyo's successor could therefore inherit responsibilities over a substantial royal estate and receive government-supported funding.

That makes the question of succession economically important as well as culturally important.

NATIONAL UNITY

Religious and cultural leaders have called for unity following the king's death.

Archbishop Stephen Kazimba Mugalu urged the royal family and Tooro community to preserve Oyo's legacy and avoid prolonged division.

That message is significant.

The Tooro Kingdom is more than a royal household.

It is an institution representing cultural identity for millions of people in western Uganda.

The succession dispute may continue through legal and customary processes.

The immediate priority is preventing disagreements within the royal family from creating broader instability.

For Uganda, the Tooro situation is also a reminder of the continuing influence of traditional institutions.

Modern African states can simultaneously operate constitutional governments and maintain historic kingdoms.

The challenge is ensuring that traditional authority, national law and community interests can coexist.

King Oyo's death marks the end of an extraordinary era.

His successor will inherit not only a throne but also the responsibility of maintaining one of Uganda's most respected cultural institutions.

TUNISIA POLITICAL PRESSURE, EXTREME WEATHER AND RISING LIVING-COST CONCERNS TEST THE COUNTRY

KASiBCAFRiCA©®™

TUNISIA POLITICAL PRESSURE, EXTREME WEATHER AND RISING LIVING-COST CONCERNS TEST THE COUNTRY

Tunisia is facing a difficult combination of political tension, economic pressure, extreme weather and growing public concern over living conditions.

The North African country has recently experienced heavy rainfall after a summer marked by exceptionally high temperatures, water shortages and electricity disruptions.

At the same time, political tensions remain high, with opposition figures, journalists and civil-society activists facing increasing pressure.

HEAVY RAINS FOLLOW EXTREME HEAT

Tunisia experienced significant rainfall across several regions on 10 and 11 September.

The National Institute of Meteorology reported rainfall totals reaching 75 millimetres at Bir M'Cherga Dam in Zaghouan, while several other areas also received heavy rain.

Civil-protection teams were deployed in 11 governorates to pump water from homes and businesses and remove vehicles trapped in flooded areas.

The sudden shift from extreme heat to heavy rain illustrates the growing challenge of climate variability.

Earlier in the summer, Tunisia experienced temperatures exceeding 48°C in some areas, contributing to high electricity demand and interruptions to water services.

WATER SECURITY

Water remains one of Tunisia's most serious long-term challenges.

The country is located in a water-stressed region and faces increasing pressure from drought, population growth, agriculture and climate change.

Urban water systems require investment, while agricultural producers must adapt to changing rainfall patterns.

The recent rainfall provides temporary relief but does not eliminate the structural water challenge.

POLITICAL TENSIONS

Tunisia is also experiencing renewed political tensions.

President Kais Saied has significantly consolidated political power since his intervention in July 2021.

The president dissolved parliament, introduced a new constitutional framework and has overseen a political system in which opposition parties and civil-society groups say democratic safeguards have weakened.

Recent demonstrations have focused on political freedoms, living conditions and the release of imprisoned activists.

Al Jazeera reported in September that several opposition figures and activists had faced convictions and continued detention.

JOURNALISTS UNDER PRESSURE

Journalist Mohamed Yousfi was arrested in early September, adding to concerns among media organisations about the environment for independent journalism.

The detention has become part of a broader debate over freedom of expression and the use of legal provisions against government critics.

For Tunisia, this is particularly significant because the country became a symbol of democratic change during the Arab Spring.

The deterioration of political freedoms is therefore watched closely across North Africa and internationally.

ECONOMIC PRESSURE

Economic problems remain a major source of public frustration.

Tunisians continue to face pressure from high prices, declining purchasing power and shortages affecting some basic goods.

The economy depends heavily on tourism, manufacturing, agriculture, remittances and services.

Tourism has recovered from the severe disruption caused by the COVID-19 pandemic, but the sector remains vulnerable to geopolitical shocks.

TOURISM

Tunisia remains one of the Mediterranean's major tourism destinations.

Its beaches, archaeological sites, historic medinas and desert landscapes attract visitors from Europe and other regions.

Tourism is particularly important because it generates foreign currency and supports large numbers of jobs.

However, the country must continue improving infrastructure and managing water consumption in tourism areas.

ENERGY

Energy is another major issue.

Tunisia's electricity system has faced increased demand during periods of extreme heat.

Air-conditioning use rises dramatically during heatwaves, placing additional pressure on the grid.

Renewable energy therefore represents an important opportunity.

Solar power is particularly attractive because Tunisia receives substantial sunlight.

Expanding renewable generation could reduce dependence on imported fossil fuels while improving energy security.

THE POLITICAL-ECONOMIC CONNECTION

Tunisia's political and economic challenges are closely connected.

Investors need predictable institutions.

Businesses require stable regulations.

Young people need employment.

Citizens want affordable food, reliable electricity, water and public services.

If economic conditions deteriorate while political tensions increase, social frustration can grow.

The government therefore faces pressure to demonstrate that its political model can deliver economic improvements.

Tunisia's future depends on whether it can address both immediate and structural challenges.

The immediate priorities include flood management, water security, electricity supply and protection of vulnerable households.

Longer-term priorities include economic reform, job creation, renewable energy and institutional stability.

The country has enormous human capital, a strategic Mediterranean location and a strong tourism sector.

But Tunisia's development potential will depend on restoring confidence among citizens and investors.

The September weather disruptions are another reminder that climate resilience must become part of national economic planning.

For Tunisia, political stability and economic stability cannot be separated.

TOGO FUEL PRICE INCREASES PUT HOUSEHOLDS UNDER PRESSURE AS GOVERNMENT ACCELERATES ECONOMIC AND BANKING REFORMS

Togo is entering a new period of economic reform, with the government focusing on financial-sector modernisation, food security, investment, infrastructure and regional economic integration.

At the same time, a new adjustment to fuel prices has placed the cost of living back at the centre of public discussion.

FUEL PRICES RISE

The Togolese government announced new petroleum prices effective from 11 September 2026.

The price of unleaded petrol increased from 725 CFA francs to 817 CFA francs per litre. Kerosene also increased, reaching 1,056 CFA francs per litre.

Fuel prices have a direct effect on the wider economy.

Higher petrol prices can increase transportation costs, food distribution costs and operating expenses for businesses.

For households, the impact can be felt through taxi fares, public transport and the prices of goods transported from agricultural areas into urban markets.

GOVERNMENT FACES COST-OF-LIVING PRESSURE

The fuel adjustment therefore creates a difficult policy challenge.

The government needs to maintain the financial stability of the petroleum sector while protecting households from excessive inflation.

Fuel subsidies can become expensive for governments, but removing or reducing subsidies can immediately affect consumers.

Togo must therefore balance fiscal responsibility with social protection.

BANKING REFORMS

At the same time, the government is pursuing major reforms in the financial sector.

The Council of Ministers recently approved legislation connected to the revised convention governing the UMOA Banking Commission.

The reform is intended to strengthen supervision of financial institutions and improve protection for depositors across the West African Monetary Union.

This is particularly important because Togo wants to attract investment and develop its financial sector.

Strong banking supervision can increase confidence among depositors, businesses and international investors.

LOMÉ AS A REGIONAL TRADE CENTRE

Togo's capital, Lomé, has developed into one of West Africa's important logistics and trading centres.

The Port of Lomé provides a major gateway to international markets.

Its position allows Togo to serve not only its domestic economy but also landlocked countries in the region.

Logistics, warehousing, transport and financial services are therefore central to Togo's economic ambitions.

Further improvements in infrastructure could strengthen Lomé's position as a regional commercial hub.

FOOD SECURITY

Food security is another major government priority.

Togo recently announced the strengthening of its national food-safety analysis capacity through new equipment for the National Food Safety Agency.

Improved testing and food-control systems can protect consumers while also supporting agricultural exports.

Food safety becomes increasingly important when countries seek access to international markets.

Exporters must meet increasingly strict health and quality standards.

HEALTHCARE REFORMS

The government has also moved to establish a national medicines regulatory agency.

A stronger pharmaceutical regulatory system can improve the quality and safety of medicines entering the country.

This could also help combat counterfeit and substandard medicines.

Healthcare regulation is particularly important for a country seeking to strengthen its public-health system.

EDUCATION AND YOUNG PEOPLE

Education remains another important component of national development.

The government recently began distributing educational kits to girls as part of efforts to encourage female participation in education.

Keeping girls in school has long-term economic benefits.

Educated women are more likely to enter the formal economy, access professional opportunities and contribute to household income.

NUCLEAR ENERGY DISCUSSION

Togo has also recently increased its engagement with international discussions around civilian nuclear energy.

The country's leadership has argued for an African approach to nuclear development, with discussions taking place in London in September.

Although nuclear energy would represent a long-term project rather than an immediate solution to Togo's energy needs, the debate demonstrates the government's interest in expanding energy options.

Reliable energy is essential for industrialisation.

INVESTMENT AND PUBLIC-PRIVATE PARTNERSHIPS

The government is also promoting public-private partnerships.

Its PPP programme is intended to attract private investment into infrastructure and public services.

For Togo, this could help finance projects without placing the entire burden on the state budget.

However, successful PPPs require transparent procurement, strong contracts and effective public oversight.

Togo's economic strategy is becoming increasingly focused on integration.

The country wants to strengthen Lomé as a regional logistics centre, modernise financial regulation, improve food security, expand infrastructure and attract private investment.

The immediate challenge is managing the social impact of rising fuel prices.

The longer-term challenge is ensuring that economic reforms translate into better employment, stronger businesses and improved household incomes.

Togo's location gives it significant advantages.

If the government can combine infrastructure, financial reform, social protection and investment effectively, the country could strengthen its role as a regional economic gateway in West Africa.
