  11. In December, Namibia elected its first woman president, Netumbo Nandi-Ndaitwah, who will take office in March if court proceedings over the results go her way. @thecontinent looks at who she is — “hawkish and conservative,” and the country she’ll be leading.

  21. The Continent is a free (of cost, ads and trackers) news publication for Africans by Africans

    The Continent is a weekly newspaper produced by African reporters, photographers, illustrators and editors. It is designed to be read and shared on WhatsApp, Telegram channel, Signal or e-mail, and has become the continent's most widely distributed newspaper.

    It is designed to be read on a mobile screen, with mostly short news pieces of 250 to 400 words, and a few longer pieces of about 900 words. Editions are sent out as a PDF on Fridays.

    Led by a small team of nine (all working remotely) and having published contributions from nearly 200 journalists, writers, photographers and illustrators from across Africa in the past year, The Continent has covered numerous important and urgent stories, starting with reliable information from African researchers and public health experts on the Covid-19 pandemic, and on to other ground-breaking reporting: the injustice of “vaccine apartheid” with rich countries hoarding Covid-19 vaccines; the impact of Nigeria’s sudden and dramatic Twitter ban (applauded by none other than Donald Trump); a tender photo essay on being queer in Uganda, in a country where it is dangerous to be LGBTQ.

    The Continent is published by the All Protocol Observed, a registered non-profit based in South Africa. It was initially funded by the editorial team, but has since attracted donor and commercial funding. So a refreshing difference is no adverts and also no tracking. You receive the PDF weekly via your channel of choice (or you can just download it from their website), and you can reshare this with anyone you wish to.

  23. De haven van #Antwerpen heeft die van #Amsterdam en #Rotterdam voorbijgestoken als exporteur van met zwavel en benzeen vervuilde diesel naar West-Afrika. Dat blijkt uit onderzoek van Apache, @DeGroene en @thecontinent.

    De strengere exportregels die Nederland sinds april hanteert lijken dus vruchten af te werpen.
