AGP Executive Report

Last update: 5 hours ago

Traditional Catholic Culture Clash: In Econe, Switzerland, the Society of St. Pius X consecrated four bishops without Pope Leo XIV’s consent, dismissing excommunications and framing the move as defending the faith—deepening a schism with the Holy See. Gabon Activism Under Pressure: An AFP report says Gabon’s post-coup climate is cracking down on criticism and activists, including TikTok personality Nelly Ngabima (“Princesse de Souba”), whose accounts were suspended after posts alleging abuses. Local Tensions in Libreville’s Orbit: In Daveyton, residents staged a “last warning” march demanding foreign-owned spaza shops shut and calling for a stronger police presence, with reports of looting later. Gabon’s Iboga Heritage Meets Science: A new harvesting method could boost ibogaine production from an Amazon plant, spotlighting the wider debate around sacred Gabonese iboga, addiction treatment, and the risks of poaching. Film & Grants: Doha Film Institute announced 2026 Spring Grants, backing projects from across MENA and beyond, including Sudanese director Mohamed Kordofani. Health & Rights: Nigeria won a UN CEDAW seat, while a pan-African allergy alliance marked World Allergy Week with a push to treat allergies as essential care.
