Sovereign Wealth Spotlight: Oman’s Investment Authority just posted record 2025 profits of OMR2.9bn and a 14.6% return, ranking among the top global performers—another reminder that disciplined state investing can move fast when markets cooperate. Health Sovereignty: Ebola and hantavirus alerts are rising as experts warn outbreaks are getting more frequent and more damaging, while donor support keeps shrinking—pushing African governments to fund preparedness themselves. Botswana Energy Pressure: Botswana Power Corporation has pleaded for tariff adjustments, citing net losses, tight liquidity and a P3.5bn creditor balance as import costs jumped sharply. Regional Trade Flows: South Africa and Zambia dominate cross-border cargo through Namibian ports, while Botswana’s share is growing on copper exports. Governance Watch: Air Botswana’s reporting and leadership gaps are still dragging, with overdue audited accounts stuck since 2022. Transparency in Resources: Oxpeckers says Botswana authorities finally allowed viewing of the EIA for the Botala Energy gas project near Serowe.
