AGP Executive Report

Last update: 4 hours ago

Water Crisis: South Africa’s water scarcity is no longer a seasonal scare but a permanent drag on farming and the economy, with experts warning that extreme weather is hitting faster than systems and budgets can recover. Immigration Tensions: Anti-foreigner protests are flaring again, and vigilantes are threatening action against undocumented migrants by June 30—fuelled by joblessness, weak services, and political opportunism. Regional Push for Independence: Lesotho’s foreign affairs minister says SADC must deepen economic self-reliance to survive global shocks, with landlocked economies like Lesotho hit hard by fuel and trade pressures. Parliament on Payments and Services: Lesotho’s Social Cluster committee has ordered urgent fixes for unpaid wages, contractor debts, and gaps affecting teachers and student sponsorships. Land-Use Alarm: A fresh push in Lesotho’s National Assembly wants housing settlements stopped from swallowing agricultural land, calling for binding digital land-use plans. FMD Warning: In Lesotho, authorities are urging communities not to eat dead cattle as Foot and Mouth Disease spreads, warning that old practices must change.
