On the 'Round Up wrap' segment of the show resident analyst Mighti Jamie, to talk to us about some of the stories highlighted earlier as well as throw forward to the week ahead....

TALKING POINTS
1. South Africa says it will withdraw its troops from the United Nations mission in the Democratic Republic of Congo. President Cyril Ramaphosa has informed the UN Secretary-General of the move, ending nearly three decades of South African involvement, with the pull-out expected to be completed before the end of the year.
2. Pope Leo the 14th has called for an end to the violence in Nigeria. Speaking in St Peter's Square after Sunday prayers, he condemned recent attacks in which gunmen killed three villagers and abducted eleven others, including a Catholic priest. The appeal comes as violence escalates in the conflict-hit north, with at least one hundred and seventy people killed in Woro last week, and growing criticism of the government's response.

3. Uganda and Tanzania's leaders met in Dar es Salaam on Saturday to discuss closer cooperation on trade, infrastructure, and regional peace. The visit comes weeks after Museveni won a seventh term in Uganda's contested elections and is the first foreign trip to Tanzania since President Hassan's disputed re-election last October. Both Uganda and Tanzania have had contested elections recently.

4. Haiti's Transitional Presidential Council stepped down on Saturday amid heavy security in Port-au-Prince. The nine-member body, set up to tackle gang violence and oversee elections, leaves no clear successor. US-backed Prime Minister Alix Didier Fils-Aimé is now expected to take sole charge while talks continue over what, if anything, will replace the council.

5. The body promoting economic integration among six Central African nations has suspended most activities amid a financial crisis. CEMAC, which includes Cameroon, Gabon, Chad, the Republic of the Congo, the Central African Republic, and Equatorial Guinea, says projects will pause until revenue from the Community Integration Tax improves. Experts warn this could delay infrastructure, restrict movement, and slow regional integration.

6. And Finally, South Africa's energy regulator has approved higher electricity price increases for state utility Eskom over the next two financial years, after acknowledging errors in earlier calculations.

The National Energy Regulator of South Africa (Nersa) said tariffs will now rise by 8.76% in April this year and 8.83% in April 2027, up from the previously approved 5.36% and 6.19%. The regulator said the revised hikes strike a balance between Eskom's financial sustainability and customer affordability.
