Ivory Coast’s Cocoa Price Hike Sets New Standard for African Producers

Ivory Coast, one of the major suppliers of nearly half the world’s cocoa beans, has raised the guaranteed price it pays to farmers to a record $4.50 per kilogram. This decision, announced by President Alassane Ouattara with the assurance that farmers will now “benefit from the fruits of their labour,” is a direct response to soaring global prices. However, viewing it solely through an economic lens, critics argue, would miss its deeper significance

The Soludo Blueprint: Redefining African Leadership

The latest edition of African Leadership Magazine celebrates the visionary leadership of Professor Charles Chukwuma Soludo, Governor of Anambra State, Nigeria — an economist, reformist, and one of Africa’s most forward-thinking voices on economic transformation and institutional renewal.

As former Governor of the Central Bank of Nigeria, Charles Chukwuma Soludo left an indelible mark on the continent’s financial landscape. His historic banking consolidation reforms stabilised Nigeria’s financial system, restored investor confidence, and inspired a generation of economic policymakers across Africa.

Today, as Governor of Anambra State, Soludo continues to lead with the same boldness and innovation — translating his economic vision into real governance impact. From driving smart urban renewal to building digital public infrastructure and championing a productive, export-driven economy, Soludo’s leadership is setting a new benchmark for data-driven, people-centered governance.

His message is clear: Africa must rise from dependency to competitiveness — through ideas, innovation, and ex*****on.
This conviction has made him a model of pragmatic African leadership, inspiring reform-minded leaders across the continent to think differently and act decisively.

🌍 Power Shift: Women Reimagining Leadership & Global Prosperity
By H.E. Sylvanie Burton, President of the Commonwealth of Dominica (High Commission of Dominica, London)

“We stand at a defining moment in history — a moment when women are no longer just participants in progress, but architects of a new world built on inclusion, innovation, and shared prosperity.”

At the Global Power Forum 2025, President Sylvanie Burton delivered a powerful message celebrating women’s growing influence in shaping a fairer, more inclusive world. Drawing from Dominica’s example—where she became the first female president of Kalinago descent and women now make up 42% of parliament—she highlighted how women’s leadership is transforming governance, driving innovation, and redefining prosperity as progress for all.

Her address captured the spirit of GPF 2025: that leadership rooted in empathy, collaboration, and purpose can unlock a more equitable global future.

Be part of GPF 2026 and the Global Power Women Conference and International Forum of African-Caribbean Leadership (IFACL), where Africa and the Caribbean unite to reimagine leadership, technology, and prosperity.

The upward revision, announced in the Bank’s Africa Pulse report released in October 2025, points to a gradual but resilient economic recovery anchored on moderating inflation, stabilising currencies, and measured policy easing across several major economies.

Why South Africa’s Car Market Is Roaring Back in 2025

South Africa’s new-vehicle market in 2025 has moved decisively from recovery to expansion, with domestic sales now tracking to surpass pre-pandemic levels for the first time since 2019. Industry bodies and market participants attribute the upswing to a confluence of factors: stronger consumer demand for value-oriented models, loosening monetary conditions compared with 2023–24, a sharper presence of competitively priced imports and an improving macroeconomic backdrop that has bolstered household purchasing power.
