AGP Executive Report

Last update: 3 hours ago

Cartography & Representation: The UN General Assembly backed a shift from the Mercator map to the Equal Earth projection, passing “Correct the Map” 164-1, with the US the lone no vote; Togo says the goal is to stop Africa appearing artificially small and even says schools will update geography materials. Publishing & Rights Enforcement: Nigeria’s Copyright Commission seized suspected pirated books worth about N7m in Abuja’s Garki Market, saying the action protects authors and publishers. Politics & Elections: Nigeria’s NDC rejected claims it lacks governorship candidates in 12 states for 2027, insisting it has candidates in all 28 states where polls will hold and urging media to verify reports. Social Policy: South Africa’s SASSA October 2026 grant top-ups remain undecided for millions of “core” beneficiaries, with the usual budget confirmation timeline landing after disbursement dates. Local Governance: A South Africa-focused report argues municipal performance gains since 1994 are real, even as service failures persist—fueling debate ahead of local elections.
