Don Jazzy reveals he searched for girls who rejected him before fame, saying the experience helped him heal from past insecurity. Don Jazzy has turned an old wound into a story about confidence, fame, and healing. According to the original report, the Mavin Records founder made the revelation during an appearance on the Keeping It Real With Jima podcast, where he spoke about being rejected by girls during his secondary school days. The Nigerian music executive said those experiences affected his self-esteem at the time. He explained that some girls dismissed him because they did not consider him attractive, a memory that stayed with him even after he became successful. After music changed his life, Don Jazzy said he went back to look for the girls who once rejected him. For him, it was not just about showing off success. It was a personal way of facing the insecurity and emotional weight he carried from that period. The producer added that when he eventually tried to reconnect with many of them, most were already married. Don Jazzy , one of Africa’s most influential music figures, has built Mavin Records into a powerhouse behind stars like Ayra Starr, Rema, Ladipoe , Crayon, and Johnny Drille . But his comments show that even major success does not erase the private battles people carry from their younger years. His story has struck a chord because it touches on something many people understand: rejection before success, and the complicated feeling of being seen differently after fame arrives. For Don Jazzy, the experience seems less about revenge and more about closure. Fame gave him recognition, but facing the past helped him measure how far he had come.

Kenya's economic growth accelerated to 5.6% in 2023, an increase from the revised 4.9% growth in the previous year, according to Macdonald Obudho, the head of the statistics office. This robust growth was primarily driven by a strong performance in the agriculture sector. The East African nation's economy, heavily reliant on farming, benefited significantly from abundant rains following years of drought. This helped the agriculture sector recover from contractions experienced in the past two years. Obudho noted that the previous year had seen a remarkable growth rate of 7%. In addition to agriculture, the tourism sector also contributed to the economic upturn. Visitor arrivals surpassed the annual pre-pandemic level, reaching 2.087 million visitors in 2023, compared to 2.035 million visitors previously. The resilience and recovery of these key sectors have been crucial in bolstering Kenya's overall economic performance.

DRC plans a dual funding system for Wazalendo forces as it seeks to organize support under the RAD framework. The DRC government is moving to structure financial support for Wazalendo fighters through a dual mechanism that includes a monthly USD 4 million fund and a special intervention fund according to to a report . Finance Minister Doudou Fwamba reportedly told the National Assembly’s Defense and Security Committee that the support is intended to organize, equip and transport Wazalendo fighters operating alongside the FARDC in eastern DRC . The first mechanism is a monthly fund created within the expenditure chain of the Armed Defense Reserve, known as the RAD. The RAD’s official framework says its mission includes providing temporary reinforcement to the FARDC and maintaining the link between the army and the nation. A second mechanism involves a special intervention fund granted by the Ministry of Finance to certain regional leaders. The report does not specify how much is allocated through this special fund or how the money is monitored. The funding plan comes as North Kivu’s Wazalendo networks face reported disorganization following the death of Major General Peter Cirimwami , the former military governor of North Kivu. AP reported in January 2025 that Cirimwami died from injuries sustained during fighting on the front line as M23 advanced near Goma. The government’s move also raises oversight concerns. Amnesty International has documented abuses by multiple armed actors in eastern DRC, including M23, Wazalendo and FARDC-linked forces, underscoring the risks of formal support without clear accountability.

A South African lawmaker from the Democratic Alliance (DA), Renaldo Gouws, has been suspended after a series of old videos surfaced online, showing him using violent racist language against black people. Initially, Gouws suggested the videos were doctored and denied their authenticity. However, the DA issued a statement on Thursday confirming the videos were genuine. In the clips, Gouws, who was sworn into parliament less than a week ago, repeatedly uses a local slur typically reserved for Black Africans along with the n-word and calls for black people to be killed. This incident comes at a challenging time for President Cyril Ramaphosa, who has recently agreed to form a new coalition government with the DA. The DA, a center-right party, has faced ongoing accusations of racism from critics who argue that the party seeks to protect the interests of the white-minority population—a charge the DA denies. The party announced that Gouws will face disciplinary charges. Another resurfaced clip from earlier in the week shows Gouws making racially charged remarks, including implying that white people are subject to reverse apartheid and stating, "If Africa had to disappear off the face of the earth, no one would [expletive] notice." Over 40,000 people have signed an online petition calling for Gouws's removal as an MP. On Monday, after the first clip emerged, the 41-year-old claimed he wasn't racist and apologized on social media platform X, describing his language as "crass" and "hostile." He stated, "I refute any claims of racism or being a racist. I can however see how my message was distorted in the way it was delivered by me and I take full responsibility for the actions of my younger and immature self." John Steenhuisen, the leader of the DA, had previously defended Gouws, but it remains unclear if he has seen the latest video where Gouws calls for black people to be killed. Senior DA official and former party leader Helen Zille commented on Wednesday, stating, "Such language is unjustifiable and unacceptable. I don't see how such offensive language can be justified." Gouws, a former councillor in Nelson Mandela Bay's ward two, is a popular figure on social media known for stirring controversy.

KCB’s 2025 profit growth highlights the growing regional weight of East African banks as cross-border operations support earnings. KCB Group’s 2025 results have landed as more than a straightforward earnings update. The Kenyan lender said full-year pre-tax profit rose 11% to 90.9 billion shillings, with higher interest income helping lift performance. In a regional banking market where scale increasingly matters, the numbers also point to the strategic value of operating across multiple East African economies. The group, which operates in Kenya as well as Uganda, Tanzania, Rwanda, Burundi, South Sudan and the Democratic Republic of Congo, said net interest income rose 8% to 148.0 billion shillings. Reuters also reported that subsidiaries outside Kenya contributed 31% of group pre-tax profit, underlining how much regional diversification now matters to KCB’s earnings mix . That wider footprint is part of the bigger signal in these results. On its investor relations page, KCB describes itself as a regional holding company overseeing banking subsidiaries across East Africa, and says the group has an asset base of about 2.0 trillion shillings with one of the region’s largest branch networks. Reuters reported total assets grew 9% to 2.15 trillion shillings in 2025, reinforcing the bank’s position as one of the region’s major financial players. The results were not without pressure points. Reports said loan impairments rose slightly to 32.4 billion shillings from 30 billion a year earlier, a reminder that growth is still unfolding in a risk-sensitive lending environment. Even so, the broader picture remains one of resilience : KCB’s official investor materials list its FY 2025 audited financial statements among the group’s latest disclosures, confirming the bank is presenting these gains against an established regional expansion strategy rather than a one-off jump. In that sense, KCB’s latest performance is also a reading on East Africa’s banking direction. Large lenders are no longer judged only by what they earn at home, but by how effectively they convert cross-border presence into stable profit growth. For KCB, 2025 offered another sign that regional banking weight is becoming central to the sector’s long-term competitive edge.

Rwandan singer Clarisse Karasira returns with “Abandi Bana,” a song highlighting social media pressure and urging self-acceptance. Rwandan singer Clarisse Karasira has released a new song titled “Abandi Bana,” marking her return to the music scene after an 11-month break. The song was officially released on Saturday, January 23, 2026. Currently based in the United States, Karasira said the song addresses the growing pressure many people face due to comparisons fueled by social media. According to the artist, “Abandi Bana” aims to remind listeners—particularly young people—to avoid measuring their lives against curated images and lifestyles seen online. In an interview with InyaRwanda , Karasira explained that the song was inspired by everyday experiences that many people go through but rarely discuss openly. She noted that social media often presents only positive moments, concealing the struggles behind them. The artist emphasized that constant exposure to idealized online content can cause individuals to lose focus on their own personal journeys. She added that people may feel pressured to imitate lives they do not fully understand, leading to unnecessary stress and dissatisfaction. The music video for “Abandi Bana” reflects ordinary daily life, highlighting the importance of embracing one’s own path rather than aspiring to live like others. Karasira said the visuals were intentionally designed to reinforce the song’s message of self-acceptance and reflection. Known for producing music with strong social themes, Clarisse Karasira continues to use her platform to address contemporary issues. “Abandi Bana” reinforces her reputation as an artist committed to delivering messages that resonate with real-life challenges faced by modern society.

OUAGADOUGOU, Burkina Faso – Burkina Faso's government has suspended the radio broadcasts of BBC Africa and the U.S.-funded Voice of America (VOA) for two weeks. The suspension comes in response to their coverage of a Human Rights Watch report that accused the Burkinabe military of extrajudicial killings, including the deaths of at least 56 children in February. The report alleges these killings are part of a broader campaign against civilians suspected of aiding jihadist militants. The national communication council labeled the report as likely to incite public disorder due to its "peremptory and tendentious" statements against the military. In addition to the broadcast suspension, authorities have also blocked access within Burkina Faso to the websites of BBC, VOA, and Human Rights Watch. VOA Acting Director John Lippman emphasized the organization's commitment to accurate and balanced journalism and called on the Burkinabe government to reconsider its decision. This development has sparked international concern over press freedom and human rights in Burkina Faso.

Empowering Early Development: The Case for Pregnancy Support Grants in South Africa The critical window from conception to a child's second birthday represents a golden opportunity to shape their future health and potential. Adequate nutrition for the mother during pregnancy and for the child post-birth is paramount to prevent undernutrition and its long-term consequences, such as stunting, which can lead to lifelong health and social challenges. While many regions globally recognize the value of maternity benefits, with over 80% coverage in Europe and Central Asia, Africa lags behind at just 16%, and South Africa currently offers no benefits to pregnant women. Addressing this gap by providing pregnancy support grants could significantly improve maternal nutrition and access to essential antenatal care, laying a foundation for healthier, more productive future generations. A Cost-Effective Strategy for National Well-being Research indicates that extending child support grants to include the pregnancy period could yield substantial healthcare savings for the South African government, estimated at R31,200 ($1,600) per child over the first 1,000 days. This could translate to a national saving of about R14 billion ($720 million) across all newborns during this critical period. The majority of pregnancies in South Africa occur in impoverished or female-headed households, where financial constraints often lead to food insecurity. Implementing a pregnancy support grant could alleviate these pressures, ensuring better nutritional choices and overall well-being for mothers and their unborn children. Investing in the Future through Pregnancy Support A pilot study in the Western Cape demonstrated the potential success of a pregnancy support grant, where recipients used funds to purchase nutritious foods, highlighting both the economic and psychological benefits of such support. Despite concerns, evidence suggests that child support grants do not incentivize pregnancy but rather provide crucial aid to those in need. Learning from global examples in countries like India, Mexico, and Brazil, South Africa has the opportunity to transform the lives of women and children, drive economic growth, and realize significant government savings by investing in pregnancy support grants. This policy change could mark a significant step towards breaking the cycle of malnutrition and poverty, enhancing the nation's health and economic future.

Adequate nutrition for the mother during pregnancy and for the child post-birth is paramount to prevent undernutrition and its long-term consequences, such as stunting, which can lead to lifelong health and social challenges. While many regions globally recognize the value of maternity benefits, with over 80% coverage in Europe and Central Asia, Africa lags behind at just 16%, and South Africa currently offers no benefits to pregnant women. Addressing this gap by providing pregnancy support grants could significantly improve maternal nutrition and access to essential antenatal care, laying a foundation for healthier, more productive future generations. A Cost-Effective Strategy for National Well-being Research indicates that extending child support grants to include the pregnancy period could yield substantial healthcare savings for the South African government, estimated at R31,200 ($1,600) per child over the first 1,000 days. This could translate to a national saving of about R14 billion ($720 million) across all newborns during this critical period.

Ghana issues Interpol red notice for ex-Finance Minister Ken Ofori-Atta amid major corruption probes tied to misuse of public funds and stalled national projects. In a dramatic turn of events that underscores the deepening anti-corruption efforts in Ghana, former Finance Minister Ken Ofori-Atta has been placed on Interpol’s red notice list. This move comes after his failure to comply with multiple summonses from Ghana’s Office of the Special Prosecutor (OSP), amidst mounting allegations of corruption and abuse of office. The red notice, which effectively alerts law enforcement worldwide to detain the subject pending possible extradition, marks a significant escalation in the ongoing investigations into the financial mismanagement and alleged embezzlement of public funds during Ofori-Atta’s tenure. Ken Ofori-Atta, a prominent figure in the administration of former President Nana Akufo-Addo, is at the center of numerous probes involving multi-million-dollar projects. Among the most contentious is the National Cathedral project, a government initiative envisioned as a spiritual symbol for the country. Despite hundreds of millions of cedis reportedly allocated, the project remains an incomplete excavation site, referred to by critics as “a monument to misplaced priorities.” Other investigations include suspicious dealings in petroleum revenue allocations, power supply contracts, and ambulance procurement deals, all of which hint at systemic lapses in transparency and public accountability. While the current headlines focus on legal procedures and evasions, the roots of this crisis run deeper. Ofori-Atta’s appointment in 2017 was mired in controversy, primarily because he is a relative of former President Akufo-Addo. This familial connection raised early concerns about nepotism, with critics warning it could compromise institutional oversight and embolden unchecked authority. Ghana, like many democracies in sub-Saharan Africa, faces chronic governance challenges, where institutional frameworks often fail to hold the powerful accountable. Weak procurement systems, lack of parliamentary oversight, and the political shielding of appointees contributed to an environment where public office could be easily exploited for private gain. The re-election of President John Mahama has introduced a renewed political will to address historic corruption cases. His administration has launched at least 33 corruption-related cases involving former officials, signaling a broader effort to clean the slate and restore public trust. The OSP’s insistence on an in-person interrogation despite Ofori-Atta’s legal team requesting virtual engagement on medical grounds, underscores a shift toward a more assertive, no-compromise approach to justice. “We will not countenance this conduct, not in this case,” said Special Prosecutor Kissi Agyebeng, rejecting what he described as a pattern of evasion. Ofori-Atta’s whereabouts remain officially unknown, though reports suggest he may be in the U.S., UK, South Africa, Hong Kong, Guyana, or the Cayman Islands. The issuance of an Interpol red notice opens the door to international legal cooperation. However, the actual process of extradition could be fraught with delays depending on the laws of the host country and the strength of Ghana’s diplomatic relations. Ken Ofori-Atta's case is not just a political scandal, it’s a reflection of the structural vulnerabilities that continue to plague governance in many African states. It speaks to a critical need for reform in public financial management, appointment procedures, and anti-corruption institutions.

DRC lawmakers adopted Washington Accords bills, sending them to the Senate as MPs call for peace and accountability. The Democratic Republic of Congo’s National Assembly has adopted two bills authorizing ratification of the Washington Accords, sending the texts to the Senate for a second reading after a near-unanimous vote, according to Actualité.cd . The measures cover the peace agreement between the DRC and Rwanda and a strategic partnership between the DRC and the United States, both signed in Washington. National Deputy Singoma Mwanza, elected from Nyiragongo in North Kivu, said the vote should send a clear message to communities affected by conflict in eastern DRC: lawmakers want peace to return as quickly as possible. The next stage now moves to the Senate, where the two texts are expected to undergo a second reading before the ratification process can advance. The DRC-Rwanda peace agreement includes security coordination provisions and broader efforts linked to regional stability, according to the U.S. State Department . Mwanza also stressed that peace agreements should not become a shield for impunity. He said serious crimes and crimes against humanity committed during the war must still be addressed through justice mechanisms. The issue remains sensitive because eastern DRC has faced years of violence involving armed groups, regional tensions and large-scale displacement. The DRC and Rwanda signed a U.S.-mediated peace agreement in Washington in June 2025, but implementation has remained closely watched by international observers, with AP noting concerns over whether the deal can address the deeper roots of the conflict. For Kinshasa, the Senate review will be the next political test: whether the agreements can move beyond formal ratification and become a framework for security, accountability and durable peace in the east.
