Olympics Rights Deal: The IOC has signed a new broadcast deal for the 2028-32 cycle in sub-Saharan Africa, with Marketing & Media Solutions (MMS) securing free-to-air coverage across 44 countries for Los Angeles 2028, Brisbane 2032, and the French Alps 2030 Winter Games—starting with the 2026 Youth Olympics in Dakar. Regional Mobility Push: A new Mo Ibrahim Foundation report says AfCFTA’s gains are being held back by slow action on free movement: only four countries have ratified the AU 2018 Free Movement of Persons Protocol, and most Africans still face visa hurdles even when traveling within Africa. Oil & Gas Watch: Sao Tome & Principe has launched a fast-track licensing round for three ultra-deepwater blocks west of the islands, with bids due by 30 June. Local Business Spotlight: A Highland chocolatier from Scotland won four awards at an international competition, using single-origin cocoa from São Tomé. Digital Finance Regulation: Sao Tome’s Neves Licensing Authority says fintech growth is forcing countries to update licensing rules for cross-border, cloud-based financial services.
