Placards highlighted broken promises of GH¢6,000 or GH¢7,000, while COCOBOD assured ongoing payments of over GH¢1.09 billion in arrears. The Ghana Catholic Bishops' Conference demanded using surpluses to protect farmers, as government leaders cited massive debt and market woes, and opposition accused betrayal of election pledges amid cocoa's role in 30% of export earnings.

Résumé Complet

Footage from the February 13-15 AU summit showed Kiir walking unsteadily during a C5 meeting, prompting widespread criticism on X about aging African leaders holding onto power despite health concerns.

Kiir has led South Sudan since 2011 independence, through a civil war that killed nearly 400,000, with elections now set for December amid fragile peace; officials insist he remains capable, but no comment addressed the video.
