Albert Oppong-AnsahAccra, March 3, GNA – Ghana’s nuclear power programme faces a significant setback due to a legal gap, with no nuclear regulatory instruments passed by Parliament in nearly a decade.

Sources close to the process say the…

South Africans can expect higher transport and consumer costs in March 2026 as fuel prices rise, the Road Freight Association (RFA) says.

Implications Of Iran–U.S.–Israel Conflict On The Nigerian Economy – Independent Newspaper Nigeria

Of particular strategic importance is the Strait of Hormuz, through which roughly 20 percent of global crude oil supply is transported daily. Any disruption to this corridor has immediate implications for global oil prices, shipping costs, insurance premiums, and supply chains. There is also the output disruption effect, as Middle East countries are major oil producers. For Nigeria, an oil-dependent economy where crude accounts for over 85 percent of export…
