Prime Cabinet Secretary and Cabinet Secretary for Foreign and Diaspora Affairs Musalia Mudavadi has called on African countries to deepen cooperation in aviation and accelerate the implementation of the Single African Air Transport Market (SAATM) to improve connectivity and drive economic growth. Mudavadi said Africa could not fully realise its economic potential while air travel between neighbouring countries remained costly, slow and dependent on transit points outside the continent. Speaking on Wednesday during the 10th Aviation Africa Summit and Exhibition at the Sarit Expo Centre in Nairobi, Mudavadi said better air connectivity was critical to Africa’s economic transformation and regional integration. “Aviation is not just a means of transportation. It is an enabler of trade, tourism, investment, healthcare, education, humanitarian assistance and cultural exchange,” he said. “It connects people, markets and opportunities. For Africa, a continent of immense geographical diversity and enormous economic potential, aviation is a strategic necessity.” The summit brought together policymakers, regulators, aviation industry leaders, investors, innovators, development partners and other professionals to discuss challenges and opportunities facing the continent’s aviation sector. Mudavadi welcomed delegates to Nairobi, describing the city as a regional financial, logistics and dip...

Read briefing Over 11,000 pharmaceutical technologists have threatened to down tools in protest against new guidelines that would bar them from practising in Level Three to six health facilities. Under the new guidelines adopted by the Pharmacy and Poisons Board, only practitioners with degree-level qualifications, will be allowed to administer medicines in the mentioned facilities, while diploma-level holders will manage dispensaries. Kenya Pharmaceutical Association Chairman, Chitechi Amboka, termed the guidelines contained in the Good Pharmacy Practice Standards, discriminatory, saying the rules strip qualified diploma-holders of the right to handle essential medicines. Amboka said pharmaceutical technologists constitute over 70 per cent of all healthcare practitioners and play a crucial role in the day-to-day running of healthcare operations. He said the new draft guidelines, expected to take effect in January next year, risk causing a collapse of the healthcare system at a time when the government is implementing Universal Health Coverage (UHC). “The new guidelines adopted by the Pharmacy and Poisons Board will bar over 11,000 of our members from handling medicines across 3,569 public facilities, retaining those functions for degree holders only,” said Amboka, stressing, “We hereby reject this in totality.” Addressing the media in Naivasha, Amboka said the Association would hold a prote...

Read briefing African governments have been urged to invest in leadership alongside technical expertise to ensure public sector and public financial management reforms translate into lasting institutional change. Speaking during a webinar on Leading Public Sector Transformation in Africa: Leadership Lessons from the LEAPS Programme, African Capacity Building Foundation (ACBF) Executive Secretary Mamadou Biteye said leaders must go beyond understanding systems and develop the ability to inspire people, build trust, navigate competing interests, manage resistance and sustain momentum when reforms become difficult. “Public sector reform is rarely held back by a lack of good ideas. More often, the real challenge is our ability to lead change by bringing people together, building trust, overcoming resistance and sustaining momentum,” Biteye said. The virtual forum brought together public officials, public financial management practitioners, development partners and alumni of the Leadership Excellence in Africa’s Public Sector (LEAPS) Programme to share experiences on the role of leadership in driving institutional transformation.

Read briefing Nigerian designer Omosalewa Ogunjimi has been named the Real Leather. Stay Different. (RLSD) Africa 2026 Most Commendable Designer, emerging at the top of a highly competitive pan-African field with EXUVIA, a striking exploration of leather, structure and transformation. Inspired by the human spine, ribcage and the natural process of moulting, EXUVIA explores ideas of resilience, protection and renewal through a bold, sculptural design language. Rather than treating leather simply as a surface or decorative material, Ogunjimi makes it part of the garment’s architecture, using modular construction to create a design capable of transformation and multiple expressions. The result is a proposition that brings together storytelling, functionality and material experimentation, qualities that distinguished EXUVIA through the final stages of the competition and earned Ogunjimi the honour of representing Africa at the international RLSD competition in Bangkok, Thailand, from 27–29 October 2026. For Ogunjimi, EXUVIA is also an expression of an increasingly distinctive personal design language. “EXUVIA is a reflection of my design language where structure, functionality and storytelling come together to create something distinct. I’m honoured to carry this work forward and represent Africa on the global stage,” she said. FROM CONCEPT TO CREATION Now in its fourth year in Africa and sixth...
