Five Angola civil society organizations petitioned United Nations Secretary General Antonio Guterres for an international investigation into deadly police violence. The groups demand an independent fact-finding mission to examine security force actions during late July taxi strikes that killed approximately 30 people. Officers fired live ammunition and conducted mass arrests when protests against fuel price increases spread beyond transportation workers. Police detained 1,500 individuals during the three-day unrest period, though authorities released some suspects on bail. The organizations argue systematic violations and widespread impunity require UN intervention.
President Joao Lourenco defended security forces after the violence...

Peter Mutharika returns as Malawi's leader after President Lazarus Chakwera admitted defeat following the September 16 vote. The 85-year-old former law professor earned degrees from Yale and the University of London before spending decades in America. Voters recalled his previous presidency from 2014 to 2020, when inflation remained below 10 percent, in contrast to the recent 33 percent rate under Chakwera. His Democratic Progressive Party promised proven leadership to fix economic problems plaguing the 21-million-person nation. Campaign events often proceeded without Mutharika's physical presence due to his advanced age.
The constitutional law expert helped draft Malawi's first democratic constitution in 1994, following the fall of...

The former pastor failed to fulfill campaign promises about job creation and fighting corruption.
Mutharika's Democratic Progressive Party attracted voters who remembered stronger economic performance during his previous 2014-2020 administration. His campaign emphasized proven...

Mutharika's Democratic Progressive Party successfully campaigned on promises to restore economic stability.
