UN peacekeeping mission in the DRC to send its first team in  the coming days

Ghana has suspended citizenship applications for members of the African diaspora to review and improve the process, aiming to make it more accessible and user-friendly.

 Since 2016, Ghana has allowed people who can prove African ancestry to apply for citizenship, a policy mainly designed for descendants of those affected by the transatlantic slave trade.

South Africa's (SA) Ad Hoc Committee has decided that President Cyril Ramaphosa will, for now, not appear before the committee to answer questions regarding the establishment or disbandment of the Political Killings Task Team. Instead, Ramaphosa will submit a written response, however, the committee may still summon him to appear if it is not satisfied with his written answers.

 The uMkhonto weSizwe Party has condemned the refusal by Paul O'Sullivan and Brown Mogotsi to appear before the Committee, citing alleged security concerns.

The party says no individual is above the law and all persons summoned to appear before the committee must comply. Meanwhile, businessman Suleiman Carrim is taking the Madlanga Commission to court today in an urgent bid to prevent the inquiry from subpoenaing him to appear before it this Friday.

 Lulu Gaboo spoke to legal expert, Melusi Xulu.

Drama at SA's AdHoc Committee, Madlanga Commission

Domingos Simoes Pereira, leader of the opposition in Guinea Bissau was released from jail over the weekend following his incaceration. He was among several senior politicians arrested by the military after taking over the country late last year in November. The millitary overthrew President Umaro Sissoco Embalo just days after the presidential elections.

The junta's reason for the coup was apparently to prevent bloodshed between supporters of rival candidates and announced it was taking control of the west African country for a period of one year.
