AGP Executive Report

Last update: 3 hours ago

Messi Farewell in Argentina: Lionel Messi played his final international match for Argentina against Benin at Estadio Monumental, finishing with a 3-0 win and a drone-show spectacle that briefly turned into an ad before forming a Messi shirt; he scored via penalty and added two assists as Argentina marked the end of an era. Sahel Media Push: The Alliance of Sahel States (AES) launched Tafouk TV, a joint media channel broadcasting from Bamako, aiming to counter disinformation and promote “information sovereignty” across Mali, Burkina Faso and Niger. Burkina Faso Football Politics: President Ibrahim Traoré says Burkina Faso may directly intervene in football administration despite possible FIFA sanctions, arguing the state must act to improve organisation and infrastructure. Digital State Backlash in Ouagadougou: A critical report says Burkina’s e-government drive—online services like criminal records and health insurance—largely serves urban elites, with limited internet and 4G coverage leaving most people behind. ICC Row Revisited: Traoré again attacks the International Criminal Court as “imperialism,” arguing Africans face unequal scrutiny while Western interventions go unchecked.
