AGP Executive Report

Last update: an hour ago

Regional Trade & Logistics: Botswana says it will keep pushing stronger SADC ties to improve cross-border ease of doing business, streamline logistics and cut non-tariff barriers, citing recent binational commissions with Zimbabwe, Zambia, Namibia and South Africa. Food Security & Agriculture: SADC agriculture ministers in Victoria Falls urged faster regional co-operation on fertiliser regulation and animal disease control as 58 million people face acute food insecurity, warning that climate shocks and input costs are squeezing farmers. Fuel, Forex & Industry Costs: Zimbabwe may lose about US$4.3m monthly revenue after fuel tax changes meant to cushion diesel costs, while forex auction allocations reportedly fell about 50% as liquidity tightens—both raising pressure on production and transport. Energy Overhaul: Government unveiled a multi-billion plan to upgrade the power grid and build strategic fuel reserves, aiming to reduce reliance on imported petroleum and supplementary electricity. Mining & Value Addition: PPC signed with Sinoma to boost clinker and cement output and assess a possible integrated plant; Zimbabwe also approved 190+ carbon credit projects via its blockchain registry, signalling more investment pull for green projects. Governance & Public Services: MPs clashed over a worsening sewage crisis, with responsibility pinned on local authorities; meanwhile, road maintenance is strained by imported chemicals draining forex. Business & Jobs Skills: Zimbabwe pushes TVET as teacher enrolment drops, while Havenhill Academy highlights ACCA pathways for internationally employable accountants. Legal/Policy Signals: State withdrew fraud charges against Harare deputy mayor Rosemary Muronda and Zanu-PF member Shadreck Mashayamombe after prosecutors said evidence was insufficient.
