Senegal Gas Push: Senegal’s state oil arm says the Yakaar-Teranga gas project could cost about $7.5bn and, once producing, help cut the country’s $1bn+ annual energy subsidy bill while boosting power and industrial plans in fertilizer, petrochemicals, steel and cement. Energy Sovereignty: The same push is playing out in policy—Senegal has been terminating and reviewing oil-block concessions as it moves toward tighter control of resources. Africa Forward Fallout: In Kenya, France’s Macron announced €23bn (about $27bn) for energy, AI and agriculture, but also sparked backlash after interrupting a summit panel to demand silence—an image problem as Paris tries to sell “partnership of equals.” Public Health Warning: Across West Africa, a “zombie drug” crisis is worsening as high-strength tapentadol tablets from India are reportedly showing up in markets and being linked to kush. Connectivity Move: A new Via Africa subsea cable plan would link Europe to South Africa with landing points including Senegal, aiming to strengthen regional network resilience.
