Egypt removes term limit for president

Egypt parliament overwhelmingly approves constitutional changes to remove term limits for President el-Sissi until 2034.

This is all the Associated Press has written about it. But as anyone can see all around the world, a presideny without term limits will always lead into authoritarianism because it allows one president to run as often as he or she wishes to. It leaves no limit to it, so that a change can hardly be made. The president's party can simply run with the same individual and a demographically corrupted country (at the moment, countries full of generians) will vote for this party because they always did so.

On China's run for economic domination in East Africa

[...] the East African country boasts 3.5 billion barrels’ worth of crude oil in proven reserves, and petroleum geologists will likely find more in the two-thirds of South Sudan that they have yet to explore. Despite the challenges of working in a war zone, China dominates what analysts have assessed as the third largest oil reserves in Africa.

China first decided to enter the petroleum industry in Sudan in 1995, 16 years before South Sudan gained independence and right in the middle of the Second Sudanese Civil War. The United States’ economic sanctions on Sudan, which faced accusations of committing war crimes at home and supporting terrorism abroad, did little to deter Chinese companies eager to take advantage of Sudanese oil reserves.

As early as 2011 — the year of South Sudanese independence — the China National Petroleum Corporation, or CNPC, established an office in the South Sudanese capital of Juba. While the outbreak of the South Sudanese Civil War i... show more

Election in South Africa on May 8, tensions arise

Full of bluster as ever, Malema, who broke the media embargo on the state of the nation speech by sharing a Tweet with the 8 May 2019 election date before it was mentioned, said he believed Ramaphosa would be the ” last President of the ANC in this country to ever address SONA”.

The National Prosecuting Authority (NPA) will set up a special unit to deal with state capture prosecutions. The unit will focus investigating and prosecuting revelations made at the state capture commission. The unit will also deal with “serious” corruption.
