Senegal: Religious celebrations marked by inflation
While the country’s economy is experiencing a sharper-than-expected slowdown according to IMF forecasts, Senegal is facing worrying inflation. It has reached 9.7 percent in 2022, its highest level in decades.
This situation is due in particular to soaring food prices. An unbearable increase for most Senegalese households, especially during the holiday season. A report by Wahany Johnson in Dakar.
Libya: promoting date exports
Date producers in Libya would like to export their abundant harvests, however, they face various challenges that slow down their hopes for emancipation.
The regions of Wahat, and Awjila are known for producing large quantities of dates, which reach 150,000 tons per year. The problem is that much of this fruit is destroyed or used as animal fodder due to poor marketing.

6 Pics: When South Africa was White and VIBRANT! - The Hanging building!
This building still exists in Johannesburg. It was already built and looking great in the mid-1980s when I came to work in Johannesburg. Someone back then told me that the floors of this building are hanging. I did not quite know what to think of it, but its design is strange and when you look at the bottom, youll see the whole building is held up by a central column. (Just like those buildings of 911).
