AGP Executive Report

Last update: 8 hours ago

Maseru Clean-Up: Clean Lesotho Initiatives has restored a neglected Maseru site by tackling overgrown vegetation and dumped waste, with plans to turn the area into a recreational park in talks with the Maseru City Council. Education Value for Money: Minister Maele toured Botho University’s labs and innovation hubs, saying the government is checking whether it gets value for money from sponsoring 2,500+ students, and pushing closer ties with private training providers. Botswana–Lesotho Cooperation: At the Botswana-Lesotho Bi-National Commission, both countries pledged action on trade, investment, water and energy, governance and people-to-people links, including plans for water transfer and energy security. Lesotho Digital Jobs Push: The US Embassy and American Corner launched an AI Skills Development Programme under the Sebabatso youth initiative, aiming to boost digital entrepreneurship and e-commerce for young businesses. Transport Costs Bite: Lesotho’s fuel-price pressure continues, while a proposed 79% taxi fare hike is set to spark a showdown over affordability—especially for disabled commuters facing a “triple blow.” Public Finance Watch: The Auditor-General says the CAFI project spent only 41% of its revised budget by March 2024, raising concerns about implementation and private-sector impact. Health Investment Case: Lesotho’s Ministry of Health unveiled a M2.3bn investment case targeting maternal and child health, family planning, and GBV/child marriage, framed as economic strategy.
