Europa Metals Ltd (AIM:EUZ, JSE:EUZ) executive chairman and acting CEO Myles Campion talked with Proactive's Stephen Gunnion about the company's planned reverse takeover (RTO) deal with Marula Africa. The transaction is set to give Europa access to a portfolio of producing and near-producing critical minerals projects across Africa, including copper, lithium, tantalum and manganese assets. Campion described the deal as “transformative” and noted that the company had been actively seeking near-term cashflow opportunities. He highlighted the Kinusi copper mine in Tanzania, which is already in production and yielding high-grade direct shipping ore (DSO), with grades of 20-30% copper. He also pointed to the Blesberg lithium-tantalum mine in South Africa, which holds a 250,000-tonne surface stockpile grading up to 6% lithium. A processing plant is already in place. Additionally, the Kilifi manganese asset in Kenya is expected to operate as both a processing hub and a producing asset. Europa intends to return capital to shareholders following the recent $3.2 million sale of its Spanish asset. The AGM, scheduled before year-end, will define the initial capital distribution. Campion said: “So it is pretty transformative… We'll come out the other side as a completely different company, with some very good cash flows coming through.” Looking ahead, the company is preparing for due diligence, technical reports and regulatory steps to progress the RTO. It is also exploring a rare earths opportunity as part of the agreement with Marula.

Good afternoon, I'm _____ with today's episode of EZ News. Tai-Ex opening The Tai-Ex opened up 108-points this morning from yesterday's close, at 23,084 on turnover of $5.9-billion N-T. Shares closed higher on Monday despite Chinese military drills around Taiwan. Large-cap tech stocks appeared resilient amid optimism toward an investor conference scheduled by TSMC Thursday, where the chipmaker could give positive leads in the current boom of an artificial intelligence era. MAC condemns China's sanctioning of Taiwan businessman, lawmaker The Mainland Affairs Council on Monday condemned China over its sanctioning of Taiwanese businessman Robert Tsao and DPP Legislator Puma Shen, calling the move detrimental to cross-strait relations. In a statement, the MAC said the Republic of China is a sovereign country and that attempts to undermine (破壞) a free and democratic society will only drive the two sides further apart. It made the remarks after China announced earlier in the day the imposition of sanctions including an entry ban on Tsao and Shen for being "Taiwan independence die-hards." The Taiwan Affairs Office in China may have been referring to the Kuma Academy, a war-preparedness organization established by Shen and supported by Tsao, the founder of contract chipmaker United Microelectronics Corp. In 2022, Tsao made aT$1 billion NT donation to the academy, a volunteer civilian training organization with a mission to "prepare a pre-war mentality for civilians and cultivate self-defense capability." UN Concerned as Israel Fires on UN Peacekeepers The U.N. Security Council expressed “strong concern” as Israel has fired on and wounded U.N. peacekeepers in southern Lebanon during intensified fighting. It reiterated its support for their role in supporting security in the region. The statement Monday is the first by the U.N.'s most powerful body since Israel began firing on the positions of the peacekeeping force. The U.N. peacekeeping chief told reporters that Secretary-General Antonio Guterres confirmed Monday that peacekeepers will remain in all their positions even as Israel has urged the peacekeepers to move north. Israel has been escalating its campaign against Hezbollah in Lebanon across a U.N.-drawn boundary (邊界) between the two countries. Hurricane Helene clean-up efforts hampered by 'armed militia' groups Hurricane relief workers in the US state of North Carolina have been evacuated following threats from 'armed militia'. This comes as US authorities are trying to stem a flow of false claims circulating (散佈) about the government's response to recent storms - including some made by former president Donald Trump. Sally Patterson reports. Kenya Protests Against Nuclear Plant Dozens have rallied against a proposal to build Kenya's first nuclear power plant in one of the country's top coastal tourist hubs. Muslim for Human Rights led the march Friday in the town of Kilifi to the county governor's office where they handed him a petition (請願書,) opposing the construction of the plant. Kilifi County is also home to Arabuko Sokoke forest, which is on the tentative list of the UNESCO World Heritage sites, as a significant natural habitat for the conservation of rare and endangered species. The construction of the plant is set to begin in 2027 and be operational by 2034, at a cost of about $3.8 billion US dollars. That was the I.C.R.T.

Elizabeth Waitha ni afisa elimu wa  UNICEF.“Tuliweza kubaini Kaunti 16 ambazo zilikuwa na watoto zaidi ya 10,000 ambao wanaendi shuleni, na hii ilikuwa ni kwa shule za msingi tu. Na tukaangalia ni jinsi gani ya kuhakikisha mazingira bora ya kusoma kwa watoto waliosajiliwa kwenye mradi. Na tumeweza kuwasaidia zaidi ya wanafunzi milioni kwa vifaa vya shule na pia kwa waalimu vifaa vya kuandikia kama chaki, kalamu na vingine.”Na ndipo David akasikia kuhusu mradi huo,“Nilipata taarifa kutoka kwa walimu ya kwamba kuna mradi ambao unawasaidia watoto walioacha shule ili warehjee shuleni kuendelea na masomo. Sasa nilipokuja shuleni nikaambiwa wewe tutakusajili katika huu mradi wa msaada , ndipo nikaweza kurejea masomoni, hadi sasa nipo shuleni kwa sababu ya msaada huu. Vitu ambavyo nilipewa ni pamoja na mkoba wa madaftari, vitabu, kalamu na vifutio.”Hii imemrejeshea David matumaini ya ndoto yake“Mimi nikimaliza kusoma nataka kuwa Daktari ili kusaidia wagonjwa. Na katika kusaidia wagonjwa mshahara nitakaolipwa ntajisaidia mwenyewe na pia kusaidia familia yangu”Kupitia mradi huu mbali ya vifaa umewezesha zaidi ya watoto 256,000 kurejea shuleni na bado wanaendelea na masomo.

This evening on Africa at A Glance we talk about a new investigation by BBC Africa Eye, for BBC World Service, that has uncovered cases of elderly people being murdered and attacked after being falsely accused of witchcraft along Kenya's Kilifi coast. Violent attacks on supposed witches occur across paths of Africa and beyond, but the estimated 70 deaths reported here every year are about much more than fear of the supernatural. Meeting victims, relatives and even perpetrators, #BBCAfricaEye investigates the real motives fuelling these brutal incidents and the impunity that often enables them, revealing that many elderly victims are targeted not by strangers, but the very people who should be protecting them - their own families. Joining us for this discussion is Julius Wanyama, who works at human rights organisation called Haki Yetu. Julius is featured in the film and his organisation published an extensive report on witchcraft accusations of the elderly in Kenya, and Nicola ‘Nicky' Milne, is the Executive Producer and Director of this film. The film is produced by ‘BBC World Service / BBC Africa Eye:  and it's called ‘Cry Witch: Take My Land, Take My Life'.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Is nuclear power a possible answer to the challenge of phasing out fossil fuels in response to global warming? Many African governments say yes – and 18 are now in the feasibility stage of developing nuclear power stations. Currently, South Africa is the only country on the continent which generates electricity from a nuclear power plant.But activists argue there are too many risks – and that Africa lacks the capacity to dispose of the waste nuclear power produces. In Kenya, residents of Uyombo village in Kilifi are opposing the development of a power plant in their area – even though its construction is only due to start in 2027. The government says when – or if – it comes online, it should generate 1000 megawatts of electricity, nearly a third of the energy Kenya currently produces. For the Africa Daily podcast, Alan Kasujja speaks to renowned environmental activist Phyllis Omido, who is leading the campaign against the project. He also speaks to Justus Wabuyabo, the head of Kenya's Nuclear Power and Energy Agency (NuPEA), the body tasked by the government with developing nuclear energy in the country.

Elimu ni moja ya nyenzo zenye nguvu zaidi za kuleta mabadiliko kwa watu binafsi na jamii na ndio maana katika miongo miwili iliyopita, serikali ya Kenya imefanya mageuzi mengi ili elimu ya msingi iwe bure na ya lazima kwa watoto wote walio katika umri wa kwenda shule. Hata hivyo, watoto wengi bado hawako shuleni kutokana na umaskini, miundombinu duni, kutelekezwa na wazazi na matatizo ya kiafya hasa katika maeneo masikini. Sasa shirika la Umoja la kuhudumia watoto UNICEF limeamua kuingilia kati kwa kushirikiana na wadau kusaidia. Flora Nducha na maelezo zaidi.Katika Kaunti ya Dandora jijini Nairobi ambako wakazi wengi ni walala hoi, watoto kwenda shule ni mtihani unaoanzia kwa wazazi kama Wambui Kahiga mama wa Octavia mtoto mwenye umri wa miaka 10.Wambui anasema, “shida zangu kubwa sasa hivi ni chakula, mavazi , kulipa gharama za shule na ghara za kulipia nyumba. Kibarua ninachopata wakati huu ni cha kufua nguo na hakiaminiki kuna wakati napata na kuna wakati nakosa. Najihisi vibaya kwani ingekuwa mapenzi yangu , Octavia angekuwa alianza shule kitambo.”Kwa mujibu wa UNICEF umasikini ndio sababu kubwa inayowafanya wazazi kushindwa kuwapeleka watoto shule na sasa shirika hilo linashirikiana na wakfu wa Elimisha mtoto (EAC) na wanaendesha programu ya elimu zaidi ya yote kupitia mradi wa “Njoo shuleni” ili kuwafikia watoto wote kama Octavia na kuhakikisha wanapata haki ya elimu.Elizabeth Waitha ni afisa elimu wa UNICEF Kenya anasema “mara tunapobaini watoto ambao hawana fursa ya elimu, tunawasajili na tunaweza kuwasaidia na vifaa vya shule ambavyo vinapunguza mzigo kwa wazazi kuweza kuwasaidia watoto wao kwa ajili ya kusoma”.Na hii inaleta faja na matumaini kwa watoto na wazazi kama kwa mama wa Octavia akisema, “Octavia yuko shuleni , na sasa ambavyo anasoma naona maisha yake yatabadilika , yatakuwa maziri hata mimi atakuja kuniinua.”Kwa UNICEF “Elimu ni haki ya msingi ya binadamu na kila mtoto anapaswa na anahitaji fursa ya kupata elimu na uelimishaji mkubwa unahitajika kuhakikisha kwamba kila mtoto anasoma.”Kulingana na takwimu za Educate A Child (EAC) kuna watoto milioni 1.3 wa umri wa kati ya miaka 6 hadi 13 ambao hawasomi nchini Kenya.Mradi huu unafadhiliwa na mfuko kwa ajili ya maendeleo wa serikali ya Qatar na unatekelezwa katika kaunti 16 nchini Kenya ambazo ni Baringo, Bungoma, Garissa, Isiolo, Kajiado, Kilifi, Kwale, Mandera, Marsabit, Narok, Samburu, Tana River, Turkana, Wajir, West Pokot, na katika makazi yasiyo rasmi ya jijini Nairobi.

Today we head over to Kenya where I recently provided the keynote talk at the Sustainable Africa Tourism Summit.  After a week of meetings I took the opportunity to visit Tsavo National Park which is the largest national park in Kenya and also happens to be in its lowe season right now.  Located just a 2 hour drive from Mombasa, Tsavo in the low season months has everything which you would expect to find of a major national park in East Africa with just one exception – crowds. In this episode recorded live at Voi Wildlife Lodge in Tsavo East, I talk through my experience of the low season here in Kenya and, as you will hear, got a little too close to the wildlife for my liking, in the process!  And you can learn more Kenya during the low season months in a forthcoming article in Low Season Traveller Magazine as well as a new guide which we will be producing at a later date. To learn more about Voi Wildlife Lodge, please visit https://voiwildlifelodge.com Next time, we head over to Kilifi in Kenya to visit one of the most eco-conscious properties I have ever stayed in, Distant Relatives. But That's our show for this week. Thanks as always, for your company, and if you enjoyed this podcast, please do leave us a positive rating and review on your podcast app and also don't forget to follow us on Facebook, Instagram and LinkedIn to be the first to hear our latest low season stories, articles and guides.

We know how important it is to be inspired by both big businesses and individuals, which is why we are excited to present Talking Leaders, a bi-monthly initiative from the AHDB which will see a series of inspirational speakers share their life experiences and deliver impactful stories to the AgriLeader community. In our August broadcast, Hampshire pig farmer and Young National Pig Association (YNPA) vice-chair, Flavian Obiero, will be joining us to share his passion for getting people from a non-traditional background interested in agriculture. Flavian grew up in the coastal town of Kilifi, Kenya, and it had never crossed his mind that pig farming, especially in the UK, would become such an important part of his life. But after an accidental weeks' work experience, the rest, as they say is history! Flavian now has twelve years of expertise in the pig industry and is based on a pig unit near Basingstoke. He is particularly interested in marketing and adding value to pork. He is also passionate about increasing diversity in British agriculture. Knowing what it entails to break through in such a long-established industry, Flavian is passionate about increasing diversity in British agriculture and believes it is a win-win for everyone. Flavian believes building a brand to market and showcase the sector as progressive and professional is the only way to get the public onside and to extract the value from the market. To achieve this, you need to be able to identify with your customer. Join us to explore this topic in more detail and to hear about Flavian's own experiences and challenges, as well why diversity in agriculture is so important.

Science in Africa: tackling mistrust and misinformation

Mental-health researcher Mary Bitta uses art and artistic performance to tackle public mistrust in science across communities in Kilifi, Kenya.This distrust can extend to procedures such as taking blood and saliva samples, and also to mental-health problems, which many people think are caused by witchcraft — evil spirits or curses from parents or grandparents, she says.Such beliefs account for mental health not being prioritized by policymakers, she adds. But change is afoot.“In the last five years alone, we've had policy documents specifically for mental health. There's also been progress in amending legislation. For example, there has been a recent lobby to decriminalize suicide because, as we speak, suicide is illegal in Kenya,” she says.Bitta tells Akin Jimoh, chief editor of Nature Africa, how she uses a form of participatory action research — in which communities are involved in song, dance, video and radio productions — to change attitudes to mental health.This is the final episode of an eight-part podcast series on science in Africa.

The potential impact of HFNT on patient-centred outcomes and on resources, particularly oxygen supplies, should stimulate further exploration particularly in children with severe pneumonia managed in low resource settings.
