Résumé Complet

Japanese biologist Yoshinori Ohsumi won the 2016 Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine for discovering autophagy, the process where cells break down and recycle damaged components to survive stress like fasting. Research shows autophagy ramps up after 12-24 hours without food, peaking around 72 hours, aiding cell renewal, reducing inflammation, and supporting metabolic health. Shared widely during Ramadan—which began around February 18—posts connect the science to longstanding Muslim, Hindu, and folk fasting traditions, though experts caution it's no cancer cure and advise consulting doctors for safety.

Point Clé

As millions reach day five of Ramadan fasting, a post about Yoshinori Ohsumi's Nobel Prize for cellular self-eating has drawn huge attention. It spotlights how the body recycles damaged parts during nutrient scarcity.

Résumé Complet

In a France 24 interview, US Senior Adviser for Africa Massad Boulos expressed deep disappointment over M23's takeover of Uvira in South Kivu, calling it a clear violation of the June 2025 Washington Peace Accord ratified in December and witnessed by President Trump. The deal sought troop withdrawals, FDLR neutralization, and economic ties over Congo's minerals, but M23—backed by Rwanda according to Boulos—advanced after partial retreats under US pressure on President Kagame. Boulos accused Kagame of betraying Trump administration trust and hinted at tools like sanctions, amid decades-old conflict displacing thousands and fragile ceasefires like the February Doha framework.

Point Clé

At the Munich Security Conference, Massad Boulos didn't hold back, pointing directly at Rwanda and M23 for reigniting violence in eastern Congo despite a hard-won US peace accord.

Résumé Complet

Edo State authorities demolished a structure in Amagba, arresting two suspected Aye confraternity members while declaring four others wanted; they also sealed a property owned by fugitive Maphite financier Etiosa Akhiombare Joshua. This follows Governor Monday Okpebholo's January 2025 law, which mandates property demolition for knowingly harboring cultists and carries severe penalties like death for cult killings. Spokesperson Eribo Enwanta says the moves aim to stop cult violence that has cost Edo over $1 billion yearly, with residents divided—some praising reduced murders, others questioning if it oversteps on due process.

Point Clé

Excavators rolled in amid crowds in Amagba, tearing down a building where suspected Aye cult members had holed up. It's part of a bold push to end years of score-settling violence gripping Benin City.

Gazetted on February 16, 2026, the Constitution of Zimbabwe Amendment (No. 3) Bill extends parliamentary and presidential terms from five to seven years, delaying the next election to 2030 and shifting the presidential pick to parliamentarians needing a majority vote.

A 90-day public consultation now runs until mid-May, amid planned protests, petitions for a referendum, and potential court fights.

Point Clé
