Kenya's High Court has found Health Cabinet Secretary, Aden Duale, in contempt of court for failing to comply with an order halting the construction of a U.S.-funded Ebola quarantine facility at an air force base in central Kenya.

The ruling comes amid public protests over the project, which is intended to accommodate U.S. citizens who may be exposed to Ebola during outbreaks in the neighbouring countries of the Democratic Republic of Congo and Uganda. President William Ruto has defended the initiative, arguing that Kenya has a right to partner with the United States on the facility as part of the country's broader disease preparedness and response strategy.

South Africa's (SA) Supreme Court of Appeal (SCA) delivered its judgment in the legal dispute between the family of former Zambian President Edgar Lungu and the Zambian government. The family is challenging an earlier ruling by the Pretoria High Court, which ordered that Lungu's remains be repatriated to Zambia for a state funeral and burial, despite the family's wish for him to be laid to rest privately in South Africa.

The SCA's ruling is expected to provide clarity on the competing claims of the family's rights and the Zambian state's interest in honouring its former head of state.
