AGP Executive Report

Last update: 6 hours ago

Road Safety Push: Government has earmarked over Sh482 million for a new bridge in Mbeya’s accident-prone Mlima Nyoka bypass, aiming to ease movement of heavy vehicles and reduce crashes along the TANZAM route. Critical Minerals & Power: The EU says the scramble for lithium, cobalt and graphite is now really about power over extraction, refining and transport, warning that Europe risks being hostage to supply shocks. Corridor Competition: The Lobito Corridor is set to challenge Walvis Bay as faster, cheaper routes could shift cargo flows toward Lobito and Dar es Salaam. Home-Grown School Meals: Zambia and Madagascar are on a week-long study tour in Korea to strengthen school feeding and child nutrition, with local sourcing to support farmers. Elections & Opposition: ECZ has validated presidential nominations for Brian Mundubile/Makebi Zulu and Harry Kalaba/Moses Mawere, as international observers begin arriving ahead of August polls. Food Outlook: Zambia is projected to hit a record 4.1 million tons maize harvest, a potential relief for inflation—though budget pressure may rise from grain purchases.
