AGP Executive Report

Last update: 7 hours ago

Iboga Spotlight for Gabon’s Economy: Gabon’s traditional iboga treatment is back in the global spotlight after a U.S. executive order pushes regulators to review ibogaine’s legal status—raising hopes of new investment in a country still reeling from past corruption allegations. Conservation Data Fight: A new review says participatory mapping is growing fast, but Gabon’s own cases show why “who gets to be on the map” can decide whether forests are treated as empty or as lived-in. Africa-Forward Money Push: At the Nairobi summit, France’s Emmanuel Macron announced €23bn for Africa, with Gabon’s junta leader Brice Oligui Nguema among attendees, while Kenya’s William Ruto repeated “sovereignty” as the deal’s headline theme. Gabon Resource Control: Libreville says it’s moving to acquire a stake in Eramet (Comilog manganese in Moanda), aligning with a shift toward more control and local processing. Regional Dealmaking: Museveni and Nguema met on economic transformation, oil refinery plans, and agriculture. Telecom Cost Relief: Moov Africa Gabon and Airtel Gabon agreed to share infrastructure to boost coverage.
