The Simandou project in Guinea is the largest greenfield integrated mine and infrastructure project in development in Africa. Unlike mining's traditional “pit to port” model, Simandou promises to touch every region of the country, bringing development to hitherto neglected communities and transforming Guinea into a key player in the global steel industry. Kicking off Voices of Africa in 2025, Aboubacar Koulibaly and Ismael Diakité reveal details of this monumental project dubbed the 'backbone of Guinea's economy' and progress towards production of first ore in November 2025. Produced by Africa Practice, in partnership with the African Minerals Development Centre and the Investing in African Mining Indaba.

« Deuil, douleur et chagrin », lance le Standard à Nairobi après la terrible répression policière des manifestations d'avant-hier. Des manifestations qui « ont fait au moins 23 morts dans tout le pays, pointe le journal, dont 18 à Nairobi, et 1 à Mombasa, Isiolo et Kakamega. Des chiffres fournis par la Commission nationale des droits de l'homme du Kenya. »Finalement, poursuit le Standard, « après des semaines de grandiloquence, le président William Ruto a cédé hier à la pression populaire, en choisissant de ne pas signer le projet de loi de finances controversé, à l'origine des manifestations dans tout le pays après son adoption au Parlement. »Alors « que va-t-il se passer maintenant ? » s'interroge le quotidien kényan. « Le projet de loi de finance est renvoyé à l'Assemblée nationale », mais les députés sont « actuellement en vacances. (…) Une session extraordinaire du Parlement devra donc être convoquée. Et une majorité des deux tiers sera nécessaire pour annuler le projet. »Sur la sellette…Reste que les plaies sociales sont profondes… Lors des manifestations de ces derniers jours, note Le Monde Afrique, « des pancartes ont grimé les députés en “cochons“, eux qui figurent parmi les parlementaires les mieux payés au monde. L'exécutif n'a pas été épargné, surtout le président William Ruto, élu il y a deux ans en promettant des millions d'emplois et une vie moins chère.Ce riche homme d'affaires, parti de rien, rappelle le journal, s'est érigé en incarnation des “hustlers“, ce petit peuple des débrouillards qui forment l'essentiel de l'économie. Mais depuis son arrivée au pouvoir en 2022, il a multiplié les nouvelles taxes pour faire face à la dette (67 % du PIB). Au point que le très pieux Ruto est désormais surnommé “Zakayo“, du nom de Zachée, un opiniâtre collecteur d'impôts de la Bible. « “Ruto must go“ (“Ruto doit partir“), clament les manifestants. »La colère va-t-elle retomber ?Et Le Monde Afrique de s'interroger : « dans ce contexte, le retrait de la loi budgétaire suffira-t-il à calmer la colère ? Après le Parlement, la prochaine mobilisation appelait initialement à “occuper la State House“, le Palais présidentiel, ce jeudi. Hier, avant même le retrait de la loi, des organisateurs insistaient plutôt sur une marche blanche en mémoire des victimes. « C'est une victoire pour le pays, mais ce n'est évidemment pas la fin », estime un activiste interrogé par le journal, « qui ira marcher aujourd'hui “pour les vies perdues“. L'attention pourrait se détourner de la résidence officielle – récemment rénovée – de William Ruto. Mais ce dernier doit maintenant trouver les centaines de millions de dollars qui manquent à son budget. »Guinée : la mort mystérieuse d'un général emprisonné…À la Une également, la Guinée, avec la mort du général Sadiba Koulibaly, l'ancien chef d'état-major général des armées…Le général Koulibaly est mort alors qu'il était en prison. Il avait été récemment « condamné, rétrogradé et radié ! », rappelle le site d'information Guinée 7, « pour détention illégale d'armes et désertion à l'étranger. » Il serait mort d'une crise cardiaque.« À la prise du pouvoir par le CNRD en septembre 2021, il avait joué un rôle de premier plan, rappelle Africa Guinée, ce qui lui avait même valu le titre de numéro 2 du Pouvoir militaire. Il avait commencé à tomber en disgrâce à partir de mai 2023, lorsqu'il avait été démis de ses fonctions de chef d'état-major général des armées, puis nommé ministre de l'Urbanisme, avant d'être limogé le lendemain de sa nomination. »« L'étrange mort de Sadiba Koulibaly », pointe pour sa part Jeune Afrique. « En saura-t-on davantage sur les circonstances de son décès et, si oui, cela suffira-t-il à dissiper le doute ? », s'interroge le site panafricain.« Une mort et moult interrogations », lance le quotidien Aujourd'hui à Ouagadougou. « De quoi cet officier supérieur très respecté de l'armée était-il vraiment accusé ? Quelle est la nature de sa brouille avec son ancien allié, le président Doumbouya ? Le soupçonne-t-on d'avoir voulu attenter à la sûreté de l'État ? Pourquoi, selon les avocats, on fait de la résistance pour restituer le corps ? Un décès et une kyrielle de questions qui font que beaucoup veulent en savoir davantage ! »En tout cas, relève Le Monde Afrique, « son décès survient dans une période de forte crispation intérieure, au moment où l'opposition critique un exercice du pouvoir autoritaire et solitaire par le général Mamadi Doumbouya, aujourd'hui investi Président. »

Page africaine aujourd'hui dans le WFC avec un retour sur les journée d'éliminatoires pour la Coupe du Monde 2026. Ce rassemblement était aussi important car c'était le dernier avant la CAN qui aura lieu en Cote d'Ivoire en janvier prochain. Décrassage d'ailleurs sur le pays hôte, les Éléphants particulièrement en forme pendant cette trêve internationale. La formule est-elle trouvée pour être performant à la CAN ? Débats ensuite autour de l'Algérie : les Fennecs ont remporté leurs deux rencontres de Coupe du Monde avec une bonne incorporation de la jeune génération (incarnée par Chaibi et Zerrouki). Voit-on une montée en puissance de la sélection de Djamel Belmadi ? Le Sénégal a été en difficulté au Togo avec les superstars Koulibaly et Mané qui ont semblées amoindries physiquement. Les départs d'Europe en Arabie Saoudite se ressentent-ils dans les prestations ?

Sempre più calciatori si stanno facendo sedurre dalle proposte economiche mostruose di club sauditi, con il Paese che sta spingendo sul calcio per ottenere i Mondiali del 2030. Gli ultimi in ordine cronologico a cedere alle avances arabe sono Kantè all'Al-Ittihad e Koulibaly all'Al-Hilal. Intanto, il fondo sovrano saudita, proprietario del Newcastle, ha offerto oltre 60 milioni di euro al Milan per Tonali, che ora vacilla: ne parliamo con Guido Vaciago, direttore di Tuttosport, e con l'agente Andrea D'Amico. Come avranno preso i tifosi milanisti la possibilità che il numero 8 rossonero venga ceduto per far cassa e finanziare il calciomercato? Lo chiediamo a Carlo Pellegatti. Questa sera alle 20.30 va in scena gara 6, con l'Olimpia Milano che ha il primo match point Scudetto in casa della Virtus Bologna: convocato Guido Bagatta.

Stamford Chidge & Jonathan Kydd are joined by Clayton Beerman to look back at a poor defeat at home to Brighton and ahead to Real Madrid in the Champions' League.In part one we ask were there too many changes? Not enough continuity or were players rested for Real? Kepa was excellent but other than that there was no leadership, no spine, no attack, no energy and fitness and no hope. Meanwhile Brighton were everything we are not – aggressive one touch football; going forward quickly with end product. With no sign of form turning around we ask can we still get relegated?In part two we discuss the crowd having enough of it all. With Chelsea finding themselves in a perfect storm of shit: players who should have been sold; players who want away; players who think they'll be sold; interim manager with no focus; new owners who have turned it upside down. The season can't finish soon enough. What will the long-term damage be given how much time Chelsea will need to re-build; the possibility of a FFP fire sale and revenue down with no Europe…In part three we preview the second leg of the Champions' League quarter-final against Real Madrid. How will Frank set up the team with no Koulibaly and Chilwell? How are we going to score 3 goals? And do we have to score first and by going on the attack do we leave ourselves vulnerable to getting thumped?In part four we have this week's emails to read out. Hosted on Acast.

Stamford Chidge & Jonathan Kydd are joined by Martin Wickham to look back at a frustrating draw against Everton at the Bridge.In part one we ask why did Potter shut up shop at 1-0? Was it Brightonesque or an attempt at game management? We look at the substitutions. Gallagher for Pulisic? Why not Mudryk? Cheek for Kovacic and Chalobah for Fofana - understandable but Chukwuemeka for Felix? In part two we look at the poor defending by Koulibaly and Kepa's errors for Everton's 2nd goal. The result was frustrating and felt like a defeat and it seems like when Chelsea don't win the negativity starts. However, Chelsea looked fluid for much of the match, although still profligate and the defence was immense bar the two errors for the goals. So, are we getting in a stew about nothing? In part three we give a very warm welcome to Garry Hayes and Ceri Levy from The Chels podcast to talk about their new project: The Blueprint: How Chelsea FC Changed Football, a brand-new narrative podcast series covering the rise of Chelsea FC and the club's role in shaping modern football, has debuted with an extremely rare and exclusive interview with former Chelsea FC owner Ken Bates.From fearing for their very existence to conquering Europe and winning the Champions League all within two decades, the story of modern Chelsea FC is unlike any other.

It's been a good run for Everton going into the int'l break that was capped off by a tie at Chelsea that felt more like a win. The ATP is here (for episode 350!!) sans Alex to get into all the details of the 2-2 draw that showed S-word in abundance. James and Ryan get into the tactical battle of Potter vs. Dyche, Enzo/Kovacic vs. Onana/Gana, Reece James vs. McNeil/Godfrey (okay, that didn't go well), Simms vs. Koulibaly (that went better), and talk about alternatives at CF and CB going forward. The duo get into all sorts of interesting stats and a ton of listener comments, which very much helped James spend much of the episode trying to get Ryan to actually say the S-word so thank you…tune in to see how he fares.  LINKS: linktr.ee/usatoffeepod Intro: Steve Barkwill Production: James Boyman Outro: Kenboib Learn more about your ad choices.

Travis and Ola are joined by special guest Jam (@Carefree_Jam) to discuss the two massive victories against Dortmund in the Champions League and the win away to Leicester in the Premier League. The hosts discuss the nature of the two performances, the switch to the 3 at the back system, the key players improving with this system, and how the continuity of it is helping the squad in the short term. The hosts discuss how the Leicester match had its ups and downs, but ultimately could have been better in some ways. Key performances of Chilwell, Koulibaly, Enzo, and Mudryk are highlighted and the importance those players will have going forward with the 3 at the back in the absence of Thiago Silva. The expectations and predictions for the rest of the season are given for each host after 3 wins on the bounce.

The Italian giants have been hit with a 15-point deduction following an investigation into the club's financial practices that could also complicate matters for Tottenham.

Pulisic sprawled on the field and was replaced at the start of the second half. The U.S. Soccer Federation said after the game the American star was taken to a hospital for an abdominal scan. The Americans play the Netherlands on Saturday with the chance to reach the quarterfinals for the first time since 2002. Iran has failed to advance in all six of its World Cup appearances. Senegal 2, Ecuador 1 – Koulibaly’s goal puts Senegal into round of 16 at World Cup Senegal captain Kalidou Koulibaly put his team into the last 16 of the World Cup by volleying home the winner in a 2-1 victory over Ecuador. Koulibaly scored three minutes after Moises Caicedo had evened the score at 1-1. Senegal took the lead after a first-half penalty by Ismaila Sarr. Caicedo scored his goal in the 67th. Ecuador would have advanced from Group A and Senegal would have been eliminated if the score stayed 1-1. The Netherlands beat Qatar 2-0 in the other match to win the group. Senegal finished second while Ecuador and Qatar were eliminated. Netherlands 2, Qatar 0 – Netherlands beats host Qatar 2-0 to advance at World Cup The Netherlands finished off the worst showing by any World Cup host nation by beating Qatar 2-0. The Dutch advanced to the round of 16 by winning Group A while the already eliminated Qataris became the first host to lose all three of its group games at soccer's biggest event. Cody Gakpo put the Netherlands ahead midway through the first half with his third goal in as many matches and Frenkie de Jong doubled the advantage five minutes into the second half. The Netherlands is a three-time runner-up at the World Cup and also finished third in 2014. Qatar was making its tournament debut. England 3, Wales 0 – England advances after beating Wales 3-0 at World Cup Marcus Rashford and Phil Foden both scored to put England into the last 16 of the World Cup with a 3-0 victory over Wales. England coach Gareth Southgate opted to put both players in the starting lineup for the team's final Group B match and they responded with all three goals. England will next face Senegal in the round of 16. Wales finished in last place in the group and has been eliminated. Southgate had faced calls to freshen up his team after the 0-0 draw with the United States. He brought in Rashford and Foden into a new look attack and it worked.

FIFA – Croatia charged after fans taunt Canadian World Cup player A disciplinary case has been opened against Croatia at the World Cup after the team's fans taunted a Canada player with Serbian family ties. FIFA says the charge against the Croatian soccer federation was “due to the behavior of its fans.” It cited rules relating to discrimination and security at games. Canada goalkeeper Milan Borjan was born in an ethnic Serbian region of Croatia that was part of the conflict that split the former Yugoslavia in the 1990s. He moved as a child with his family to Canada and chose to represent that country.New York Knicks guard Derrick Rose (4) attempts a layup as Detroit Pistons guard Cory Joseph (18) defends during the second half of an NBA basketball game, Tuesday, Nov. 29, 2022, in Detroit.
