South Africa's African National Congress (ANC) turns 113 years old today, since its founding in 1912 in Bloemfontein in the country's Free State province.

The ANC is the oldest liberation movement on the continent and has been governing South Africa since 1994, playing a pivotal role in shaping the country's history.

However, the party recently faced a substantial setback in the 2024 general elections, losing its majority and prompting the formation of a government of national unity.

Lulu Gaboo spoke to an ANC MP Cameron Dugmore to reflect on the party's rich history, its current challenges, and its prospects.

Uganda's opposition leader, Dr Kizza Besigye, and his aide, Obeid Lutale, have been hit with a legal setback following the dramatic imprisonment of their lawyer, Eron Kiiza. Kiiza, a member of the defence team, was sentenced to nine months in Kitalya Prison by a military court on Tuesday, for contempt of court.

His swift sentencing occurred amid chaotic scenes at the General Court Martial in Kampala.

According to witnesses, Kiiza was arrested while attempting to take his seat among other lawyers ahead of a delayed court session.

A confrontation ensued when a soldier blocked him from accessing the designated area for lawyers.

Parts of Guinea's capital Conakry were on lockdown as civil society and opposition groups protested the junta's missed deadline to launch a return to democracy.

In his New Year's message, Colonel Mamady Doumbouya indicated that a decree for a constitutional referendum would be signed to launch the democratic process, without committing to a date.

Activists and opposition groups condemned the announcement as a ploy to prolong his military rule.

Lulu Gaboo spoke to Austin Aigbe, an Advocacy Officer and ECOWAS Liaison Lead, at West Africa Democracy Solidarity Network (WADEMOS).
