Starlink, SpaceX’s satellite Internet service, is making its debut in Benin, marking a significant milestone in its expansion across Africa. With the ambitious goal of providing global high-speed connectivity, Starlink offers the people of Benin an opportunity to access reliable Internet, even in the most remote regions of the country.
The service, priced at a monthly cost of 30,000 FCFA (approximately $48.66), comes with a one-time hardware fee of 400,000 FCFA (about $650), along with shipping and handling charges of 15,000 FCFA. Users will also need to pay an additional 3,125 FCFA per month to ARCEP for access to the necessary electromagnetic spectrum.

Starlink’s arrival brings new possibilities for Benin’s digital infrastructure, aiming to bridge the existing gaps in the high-speed Internet landscape. With 10.14 million subscribers to mobile Internet services and 24,641 fixed Internet subscribers, Benin takes another step towards more robust and accessible connectivity.
This initiative aligns with SpaceX’s broader mission to expand technological opportunities in underserved regions of the world, thus contributing to reducing the global digital divide. Starlink relies on a constellation of low Earth orbit satellites, enabling reliable and fast Internet access, even in geographically isolated areas.
Starlink’s expansion in Benin represents a significant advancement in the global quest for universal Internet connectivity, opening new avenues for education, business, and economic development in the country while also contributing to the digital transformation of Africa.

Considered the future of Africa, youth can contribute to economic transformation of the continent but need skills to be employable, a challenge that should be addressed through investment in education and skills development.
Addressing the 5th Session of the Committee on Social Policy, Poverty and Gender, the African Union Commissioner for Education, Science, Technology and Innovation (ESTI), Mohammed Belhocine, highlighted that a new social contract anchored in education and skills development was the key to unlocking Africa’s potential and fulfilling the aspirations of its people.
“The success of a new social contract requires that Africa harness its population demographic dividend, especially the women and youth, whose energy, creativity, and courage must drive its development agenda,” said Mr. Belhocine, in an address, delivered on his behalf by Ms. Sophia Ashipala, AU Head of the Education Division.
He said a paradigm shift in the approach to education and skills development is required to move beyond traditional models and embrace innovative methods that harness technology, creativity, and experiential learning.
Chairperson of the African Union Commission, H.E. Moussa Faki Mahamat
In addition, there is a need to close the gender gap in education and skills development.
“Empowering women and girls through education is not just a moral imperative but an economic one,” he noted, adding that, “When women have equal access to education and opportunities, they contribute significantly to economic growth and social development.”
Mr. Belhocine noted that Africa is in a paradox. The continent was the cradle of humanity and the site of unparalleled diversity with a youthful population, had abundant natural resources, with a vast potential for growth and prosperity, yet the same continent was grappling with numerous challenges, including poverty, inequality, and social disparities.
According to the African Development Bank, Africa’s youth population is expected to double to 830 million by 2050, making education and skill development even more critical. The World Bank estimated that sub-Saharan Africa had the highest youth unemployment rate globally, reaching over 20% in some countries.
According to UNESCO, out of the 500 million children in the 5-19 age group, close to 100 million are out of school in sub-Saharan Africa.
“This is a tragedy we must urgently address. We must ensure that every child in Africa has access to quality education, regardless of their background or location,” said Mr. Belhocine, adding that, “We must invest in programs that equip African youth with the skills necessary to thrive in the modern job market. This includes digital literacy, vocational training, and entrepreneurship education. By doing so, we not only unlock economic potential but also foster innovation and self-reliance.”
Mr. Belhocine urged governments, civil society, and the private sector to collaborate to invest in education and skills development and that inclusivity should be our guiding principle in ensuring that education and skills development reach the most marginalized and vulnerable communities.
He called for the recognition of the potential of Science, Technology and Innovation (STI) as multi-functional tools and an enabler for achieving continental development goals. For STI to play its pivotal and critical role in Africa’s socio-economic transformation, there must be renewed investments in education.
“Building a new social contract for Africa through education and skills development is not just an aspiration; it is a commitment we must all make,” Mr. Belhocine said, adding that, “It is a promise to the youth of Africa that their dreams are within reach, and it is a pledge to create a continent where no one is left behind.
Economic Commission for Africa (ECA) acting Director of the Gender, Poverty and Social Policy Division (GPSPD), Sweta Saxena, noted that education can be a lever on which Africa can build a new social contract because it is linked to all the SDGs.
With the impending deadline towards the SDGs, Africa is set to miss most of its SDGs targets, Ms. Saxena said, citing that some progress has been made in achieving 15 of the 17 SDGs, especially on health and education, but there has been regression on climate change, people institutions and justice institutions.
She said the only silver lining Africa has been progress on making data available but this too fell short of the mark to make informed decisions. The multiple crises of the COVID 19 pandemic, the Ukraine war and the impact of climate change have stalled progress on SDGS and this has increased poverty and unemployment on the continent.
Citing that one of three children were not at school in Africa, Ms. Saxena said this calls for a rethink on creating a new social contract that can help reap the benefits of a young population. Half of Africa’s population will be below the age of 25 by 2050.
“We need to build a new social contract that can reorder and reprioritise what we want, give equal access to opportunities for all so that everyone can live to their full potential and contribute to society in a meaningful manner,” said Ms. Saxena, adding that this was possible with the prudent use of limited resources and also a symbiotic relationship between government and the people

The newly elected President of Rugby Africa (www.RugbyAfrique.com), the continental governing body for rugby in Africa, Mr Herbert Mensah, will discuss the business of sport in a one-to-one fireside chat at the 2023 Africa Investment Forum (AIF) (www.AfricaInvestmentForum.com) on Thursday, November 9 in Marrakech, Morocco.
Championed by the African Development Bank and seven other founding partners (Africa50, Africa Finance Corporation, Afreximbank, Development Bank of Southern Africa, European Investment Bank, Islamic Development Bank and Trade and Development Bank), the Africa Investment Forum is Africa’s investment marketplace to accelerate transactions to close Africa’s investment gaps.
Mr Herbert Mensah
Founded in 2018, the Africa Investment Forum has mobilized nearly $143 billion in investment interest. The event brings together heads of state, business leaders, decision makers and investors to advance critical investment transactions to closure. Previous attendees include President Paul Kagame, President of the Republic of Rwanda, President Cyril Ramaphosa, President of the Republic of South Africa, and President Nana Akufo-Addo, President of the Republic of Ghana.
The sports industry in Africa is experiencing rapid growth, with the potential to generate jobs, improve public health, foster social inclusion and drive economic growth. According to PricewaterhouseCoopers (PwC), the industry was valued at $7 billion in 2018 with an expected growth of $12 billion in 2027. Despite the potential, investment across Africa remains limited, with only 1% of startup financing directed towards the sport sector.
Rugby Africa President, Herbert Mensah, continues to emphasize the business potential of rugby across Africa. Since his election, President Mensah has called for a change of mindset from African governments and international organizations to increase investment in rugby across Africa. In June, President Mensah delivered a keynote speech on treating rugby as a lucrative business venture at the Bloomberg New Economy Gateway Africa 2023 event in Marrakech, Morocco.
The annual three-day Africa Investment Forum Market Days event will commence on Wednesday November 8 to Friday November 10 under the theme “Unlocking Africa’s Value Chain” in Marrakech, Morocco.

The Economic Commission for Africa ECA Offices for North and West Africa convened an expert group meeting on Wednesday, November 1st, in Accra (Ghana) under the theme “Transition to Renewable Resources for Energy and Food Security in North and West Africa.”
The meeting took place within the context of the second joint Intergovernmental Committee of Senior Officials and Experts (ICSOE) for North and West Africa. Participants examined the impact of climate change in both sub-regions, discussed practical measures for countries to adapt and safeguard their energy and food security, while advancing their development and made some important recommendations.
Experts, researchers, development practitioners, and representatives from 22 North and West African countries attended the meeting, and discussed three critical issues:
Climate change, src: google.com
The impact of climate change and its implications for economic and social development strategies.
Energy security and climate change challenges, and especially the pivotal role of renewable energy in meeting the needs of the populations.
How intra-African trade can facilitate and accelerate the energy and agricultural transition, especially by contributing to food security and the emergence of sub-regional value chains in the agriculture sector.
“In North Africa, it is estimated that water scarcity could affect up to 71 percent of GDP and 61 percent of the population, compared to 22 percent and 36 percent for the rest of the world. However, alternatives remain: by relying on renewable resources, we can not only address these challenges but also accelerate sustainable economic development and social development in the region, along with poverty reduction, job creation, and social equity,” said Zuzana Brixiova Schwidrowski, Director of the ECA office for North Africa.
“Food insecurity is unfortunately a structural challenge in Africa, affecting 20% of the continent’s population compared to the global rate of 9.8%. In this context, three imperatives are evident: increasing agricultural and cereal productivity, mobilizing more domestic resources, and expediting the implementation of the AfCFTA, which serves as our cornerstone for poverty reduction and the acceleration of structural transformation,” said Ngone Diop, Director of the ECA office for West Africa.
Despite its limited contribution to global warming, Africa is significantly affected by this phenomenon: Currently, 17 out of the 20 countries most threatened by climate change are located in Africa and climate change already impacts 2 to 9 percent of national budgets across the continent[1]. According to the latest report from the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC), North Africa and West Africa are particularly vulnerable with 1.5°C to 3°C expected temperature increases which poses significant threat to populations’ health, productivity and food security.
In response to this situation, African countries have to redirect a growing portion of their public finances towards mitigation efforts and the protection of their populations, thereby depriving themselves of resources needed to finance development, safeguard development gains and implement the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).
These constraints underscore Africa’s crucial need to develop innovative growth models capable of preserving and enhancing the well-being of their populations while adapting to climate change and contributing to its slow down.
These models should include appropriate land and water management within the framework of sustainable agriculture, the use of renewable energy to meet national energy needs in a variety of sectors including transportation, industries, heating, cooling, etc., and the establishment of financing models that can address such needs.

Botswana International University of Science and Technology (BIUST), in collaboration with Yanshan University (YSU) from China, launched a second Confucius Institute on Tuesday in Palapye in the country’s Central District.
Speaking at the ceremony, Otlogetswe Totolo, vice chancellor at BIUST, said that because China is advanced in science, engineering, and technology, knowing the Chinese language and culture will improve students’ ability to pursue further education in China, giving them a competitive advantage in international companies.
“Many of our civil and environmental engineering students have benefited from understanding the Chinese language and culture, and gained employment in the construction industry, where Chinese companies have a significant footprint,” said Totolo.
For his part, YSU President Zhao Dingxuan said the new Confucius Institute will fully combine advantages of the two universities, adopt the “Chinese vocational skills” training mode, actively promote international Chinese education, and build a bridge for deepening exchanges and mutual learning between the two sides.
Botswana opened a previous Confucius Institute at the University of Botswana in collaboration with Shanghai Normal University in 2008.

The Ghanian Vice President Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia says his anticipated victory in Saturday’s NPP flagbearership contest, will be a victory for the entire NPP party. The NPP brings a hot contest, which started with 10 people, to a close on Saturday, with 4 people left in the race.
Vice President Bawumia is widely tipped to emerge victorious with a wide margin, and ahead of the elections, he said it will be a victory for all because it is an internal election to choose a leader for the party.
“Throughout my campaign, dear friends, I also stressed on the need for a decent campaign devoid of rancour, in order to preserve the unity of our party. I demonstrated this value, by embarking on a campaign devoid of insults and personality attacks. As I stressed throughout my interactions with delegates across the country, I am committed to the unity of the NPP, and I as the party’s flagbearer, will bring everybody on board,” Dr. Bawumia said.
Vice President Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia
“We are a party of different people from different backgrounds with different preferences. But in our differences we are indivisible. With this in mind, I have been presenting a message that fosters unity, inspires hope and confidence, and positions the NPP as the best to lead Ghana.”
After an intense campaign, which took him to constituencies across the country, he expressed optimism that he will be victorious on Saturday – a victory he said “will be for the NPP.”
“Throughout the process, I have come to know the party people even better. There are many fond memories of this journey that will go a long way to deepen the respect, love and harmony between me and the party people.”
“Having put up a spirited campaign backed by a dedicated team of brilliant and hardworking young men and women across the country, I have nothing but absolute confidence that I will be victorious on Saturday, November 4th. And my victory will be the victory for the NPP.”
Dr. Bawumia used the occasion to express gratitude to NPP delegates and all party stakeholders across the country for their warm welcome during his interactions with them at their various constituencies.
He also thanked the media for their professional coverage of his campaign since he announced his candidature.

The United Nations World Food Programme (WFP) Executive Director, Cindy McCain issued an urgent plea from the Rafah border crossing for safe, expanded humanitarian access to Gaza as humanitarian needs skyrocket and critical food supplies reach dangerously low levels.
For the past few weeks, entry points into Gaza have been virtually sealed except through the Rafah border crossing point. While there has been a steady increase in aid entering Gaza, it is nowhere near enough to meet the exponentially growing needs.
“Right now, parents in Gaza do not know whether they can feed their children today and whether they will even survive to see tomorrow. The suffering just meters away is unfathomable standing on this side of the border,” said Cindy McCain as she returned from the Rafah border crossing in Egypt.
United Nations World Food Programme (WFP) Executive Director, Cindy McCain
“Today, I’m making an urgent plea for the millions of people whose lives are being torn apart by this crisis,” she added.
McCain is concluding a two-day visit to Egypt, during which she met with Egypt’s President Abdel Fattah El-Sisi, senior government officials, and visited the Egyptian Red Crescent’s humanitarian staging hub in Al Arish. She also inspected the rapid expansion of logistical operations and monitoring systems at the Rafah border crossing, which are crucial for providing vital assistance to people within Gaza.
“We appreciate all efforts to facilitate a steady flow of humanitarian supplies through its border with Gaza, and the work of the Egyptian Red Crescent is remarkable. We need to continue to work together to get safe and sustained access to Gaza at a scale that aligns with the catastrophic conditions facing families there,” McCain noted.
During her visit, McCain explored opportunities for WFP to leverage its extensive expertise in logistics during emergencies to further strengthen collaboration with partners such as the Egyptian Red Crescent to scale up the delivery of humanitarian aid into Gaza. She applauded the efforts of their volunteers who have worked tirelessly to get lifesaving assistance to their neighbours.
“The crisis in Gaza is not just a local tragedy, it’s a stark reminder that our global food crisis is worsening. Not only does this crisis threaten regional peace and stability, it undermines our collective efforts to combat hunger worldwide,” McCain noted.
WFP is scaling up to reach more than one million people with urgent food assistance in the next few weeks. More than 650,000 people in Gaza and the West Bank have received food and cash assistance from WFP since 07 October. WFP is distributing fresh bread, date bars, and canned food to families in UN shelters every day, and food parcels to displaced families in host communities. WFP continues to provide cash-based transfers to people residing in communities so they can buy the food available in shops that are still open.

The President of the Republic of Ghana Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo, has disclosed that his Government, since assuming office in January 2017, has constructed an four hundred and thirty-two kilometres of roads, a feat he describes as unprecedented.
The roads include, amongst others, the completion of the dualization of the 22km Ho main road, the 30km Have to Kpando road, the upgrading of the Golokwati -Wli road, resealing of the 15km Asikuma junction to Ho road, regravelling of the 30km Frankadua to Adidome road and the surfacing of the 17.8km Matse-Klave and Lume Atsiame-Avetokoe roads.
Some of the others are the asphaltic overlay on 15km of town roads in Hohoe; bitumen surfacing of the 15.6km Akwetey-Adaklu-Waya feeder road; bitumen surfacing of Bume-Danyigba-Anfoega road; Danyigba Town Roads, Dra-Sabadu road, and Bume-Agata road; bitumen surfacing of the 12km Yorkitikpo-Kpoviadzi-Trepe road; as well as the bitumen surfacing of the 9.7km Mafi-Adadepo, Wute/Yorkitikpo and Kpoviadzi feeder roads; bitumen surfacing of the 9.7km Liati Agbonyira-Fodome-Ahor road; and the upgrading of 2.5 km Klefe town roads.
The President of Ghana, Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo
President Akufo-Addo made this known when he joined the Chiefs and people of the Anlo Stateat a grand durbar to mark the celebration of the 2023 edition of the historic Hogbetsotso festival, on Saturday, 4th November 2023, at Anloga in the Volta region.
According to President Akufo-Addo, work is also steadily ongoing on the 5.3km Ho By-Pass dualisation project which stands at 37% complete, as is work on the upgrading of 8km of selected roads in Ketu South, which is 48% complete.
Touching on the Eastern Corridor Roads, the President noted that the work that has been undertaken are in sharp contrast to what had been done at the end of 2016, which saw only 135km of Eastern Corridor Roads, representing 27%, in good condition before he came into office.
“As at the end of 2022, 366 kilometres, that is 74% of the Corridor had improved from poor to good state. This has had a positive impact on the movement of goods and people along the corridor,” he added.
The President noted further Government has cancelled the contracts awarded to contractors working on the Aflao – Denu – Dzodze – Ave Afiadenyigba – Ave Dakpa – Ho Road; Denu – Havedzi – Keta road; Srogbe – Anyanui road; Agortoe Junction – Tregbui – Adutor road; Anyako – Seva road; and the Weta – Metsrikasa road.
He explained that “most of the contractors, however, failed to carry out the works. The Ministry of Roads and Highways has, thus, decided to terminate the current contracts and re-package them for award. In the short term, the mobile maintenance unit of the Ghana Highway Authority will be deployed to undertake emergency maintenance of the very critical sections of these roads.”
In addition to these, President Akufo-Addo told the gathering that government has also secured funding of US$89 million from the African Development Bank towards the construction of the 29.35 km Asutsuare Junction – Volivo road, the 39.2 km Dufor Adidome- Asikuma Junction Road, the 23.9km Asutsuare Junction – Aveyime road, and two (2) Interchanges at Dufor Adidome and Asikuma Junction.
Procurement processes, he explained, are currently on-going and work expected to start by the first quarter of 2024.
