AGP Executive Report

Last update: 10 hours ago

World Bank Financing: The World Bank approved a US$500m package for Ghana’s GMACP to rehabilitate and maintain 1,000+ km of rural feeder roads, aiming to cut transport costs, reduce post-harvest losses, and directly benefit 550,000 people through jobs and better market access. Frontier Investment Push: The AfDB and World Economic Forum launched the Humanitarian and Resilience Investing (HRI) Roadmap for Africa, with pilots already underway in Liberia and other fragile economies to mobilize private capital and narrow Africa’s big financing gap. Local Business Support: Liberia’s Governance Commission and partners validated a Draft Local Content Policy and Supplier Development Portal under LIFT-P, targeting stronger Liberian participation in concessions and supply chains. Energy & Power: President Boakai submitted a US$57m concessional financing deal to lawmakers to expand renewable generation, strengthen grid reliability, and boost regional power links under the WAPP framework. Governance & Travel Controls: Boakai issued a cabinet directive restricting foreign travel by ministers and senior officials and prioritizing virtual participation for international meetings. Trade & Port Oversight: A House committee was set up to probe alleged unlawful charges at Monrovia’s Freeport, including fees tied to Central Tracking Numbers that importers say cause delays and losses. Mining & Exploration: Zodiac Gold reported new trenching results at its Ben Ben North area in Liberia and moved to drill a new priority target. Health Alert: Nigeria’s public health panic over Ebola risk continues as Africa CDC flags multiple countries at potential transmission risk.
