As South Africa prepares for its upcoming local government elections, attention is turning to a critical question: how engaged are citizens in choosing the leaders responsible for delivering services in their communities?

Local government is the sphere of government closest to ordinary citizens, responsible for essential services and development at community level. Yet voter apathy, declining public trust and dissatisfaction with service delivery continue to raise concerns about democratic participation.

Across Africa, local election experiences vary, influenced by political competition, electoral credibility, civic education and citizens' confidence in democratic institutions.

On The Discourse, we examine the importance of voter participation in strengthening local democracy, holding elected leaders accountable and shaping the future of communities.

To unpack these issues, we are joined by Dr Tendai Mbanje, a governance and political analyst with extensive experience in African election monitoring.

The United States has imposed fresh sanctions on Rwanda's Ministry of Defence, accusing Kigali of supporting the M23 rebel group in eastern Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC).

The Trump administration is calling on Rwanda to withdraw its troops from eastern DRC, alleging that Rwanda's defence ministry directed thousands of troops to fight alongside M23 rebels.

The sanctions come months after Rwanda and the DRC signed a US-brokered peace agreement aimed at ending the conflict. However, fighting has continued in eastern Congo, raising fresh concerns about the prospects for peace and stability in the region.

Rwanda has yet to formally respond to the latest US sanctions.

What do these sanctions mean for Rwanda-US relations? Could they affect the implementation of the peace agreement? And what are the implications for ongoing efforts to resolve the conflict in eastern DRC?

To unpack these developments, we are joined by Jean Baptiste Gasominari, Rwanda-based political analyst and attorney.

15 years after the fall of Muammar Gaddafi, Libya continues to grapple with political divisions, corruption, economic hardship and the struggle to achieve lasting stability.

Findings from Arab Barometer’s 2022 survey reveal growing frustration among Libyans, with only 15% expressing substantial trust in the House of Representatives. Economic pressures, rising inflation and cash shortages have also made it increasingly difficult for many people to meet their basic needs.

The survey further highlights declining optimism about Libya’s economic future, alongside growing support for a Libyan-led process to reconcile political divisions and rebuild national unity.

But what do these findings reveal about the everyday realities of ordinary Libyans? How have years of conflict and political uncertainty affected public confidence, economic opportunities and people's hopes for the future?

To unpack the research and its implications, we are joined from Tripoli by Mohamed Abufalgha, Policy Outreach Manager at Arab Barometer.

A new initiative is seeking to build a global movement for reparations for Africans and people of African descent, bringing communities together through art, music, education and political action.

The Global Reparations Caravan aims to connect local reparations campaigns across Africa, the Caribbean and the wider African diaspora, creating a platform for collaboration, awareness and collective action. The initiative is planning its full launch in 2027, with a preview event scheduled to take place in Antigua and Barbuda next week.

But what is the vision behind the Caravan? How will it unite communities across different regions, and what does it hope to achieve in the global campaign for reparations and restitution?

To explore these questions, we are joined from Washington by Jasmine Mickens, Director of the African Reparations and Restitution Fund at TrustAfrica.

In this interview, we discuss the origins of the Global Reparations Caravan, its approach to mobilising communities through culture and political engagement, and the importance of building international solidarity around reparations for historical injustices.

Angola e Tanzânia reforçaram a cooperação bilateral com a assinatura de acordos em áreas estratégicas, durante a visita de Estado do Presidente angolano, João Lourenço, à Tanzânia.

Os dois países assinaram igualmente um acordo para a troca de prisioneiros e um memorando de entendimento para a cooperação nas áreas das telecomunicações e tecnologias de informação, além de um instrumento no domínio da Autoridade Metodológica.

A visita decorre num contexto de esforços para dinamizar as relações económicas e comerciais entre Angola e a Tanzânia, que partilham laços históricos de amizade e solidariedade desde as lutas de libertação africanas.

Fifteen years after the 2011 uprising that toppled Muammar Gaddafi, Libya continues to grapple with political division, insecurity and uncertainty over its future.

Despite efforts to advance political dialogue and economic cooperation, rival political authorities, competing armed groups and delayed elections continue to complicate the country's path towards stability. Meanwhile, ordinary Libyans face persistent challenges involving governance, public services, accountability and access to economic opportunities.

For a generation of young Libyans who have grown up amid instability, fundamental questions remain: Has the revolution delivered the freedom, security and prosperity people hoped for? What is preventing lasting political stability? And what will it take to build a future that responds to the needs and aspirations of ordinary citizens?

On this edition of The Discourse, we examine Libya beyond the political headlines, focusing on the lived experiences of its people and the challenges shaping the country's future.

We are joined by Dr Victor Doke, a lecturer at the Kofi Annan International Peacekeeping Training Centre, to explore Libya's political transition, security challenges and prospects for lasting peace.
