AGP Executive Report
Last update: 10 hours agoICC & Sovereignty: Chad’s government says it will withdraw from the International Criminal Court, calling the ICC “ineffective and biased” toward Africa and the Global South after an “in-depth review” and citing “undeniable selectivity” in investigations. The move follows other African pullouts like Burkina Faso, Mali, and Niger, and comes as Karim Khan’s dismissal is framed as a turning point for international justice. Pan-African Mobility: A separate Chadian commentary backs the country’s plan for visa-free entry for all African citizens from 2027, arguing it challenges leaders who preach unity but keep travel across Africa difficult. Nigeria Security Update: Nigeria’s military reports July operations across the North-East and beyond: 102 terrorists and other criminals neutralised, 345 suspects arrested, 397 kidnapped victims rescued, and weapons/ammunition recovered—alongside continued pressure on Boko Haram, ISWAP, and related groups. Culture & Music: AfriFest East is set to blend masquerade, fireside storytelling, and major performances (including Kasiva Mutua, Kweku KOG, Emperor Seye Paul, and Timaya), with Ban’tikar launching its next album concept, Mboka, in London next year.
