Kenya Politics: National Treasury CS John Mbadi went on the offensive against EALA member Winnie Odinga, telling her she “has no capacity” to advise him and challenging her to seek an elective post. France-Africa Finance: The Nairobi Africa–France summit is being framed as a reset of Macron’s priorities—apology plus investment—while critics warn the relief may be “thin” without delivery. South Africa Cost Shock: Metro electricity tariffs are set to jump 6.6%–10.5%, stoking “rebellion” fears as households already face fuel and job pressure. Digital Identity: At ID4Africa, officials pushed for legal and digital identity for refugees and stateless people, warning that weak safeguards can break public trust. Crypto Rules (SA): South Africa extended public comments on draft Capital Flow Management Regulations to 30 June, with crypto treatment a key concern.
