Malawi orders foreigners into refugee camp
Reports and analysis of the day's political, economic and sports news from across Africa.
Malawi鈥檚 government has ordered thousands of foreign nationals to move into an overcrowded refugee camp at Dzaleka, despite many of them having been in the country for years. The authorities have suggested that the decision is partly due to the increase in jihadist attacks in neighbouring Mozambique.
Plus, former Lord鈥檚 Resistance Army commander Dominic Ongwen has been jailed for 25 years by the International Criminal Court in The Hague, for atrocities committed in northern Uganda.
And pandemic measures have been reinstituted in the Seychelles, despite the country having one of the world鈥檚 highest Covid-19 vaccination rates.
