What Is the Plan for Uganda’s Three New Stadiums after AFCON 2027?

Uganda is investing more than $300 million in three stadiums for AFCON 2027: Mandela National Stadium at Namboole is being expanded to 45,000 seats, while new 20,000-seat stadiums are being built in Hoima and Lira. After the tournament, scheduled for June 21 to July 17, 2027, the country will have 85,000 seats but no published revenue model, while Uganda Premier League matches average 3,000 to 5,000 attendees. Paulo J. Cruz, CEO of African Collaborations Group, says Uganda should establish a commercial plan before the tournament and integrate the venues into sport and entertainment districts that earn revenue throughout the year. He says his company works with governments to prepare such projects for private and institutional investment without using public budget funds.

Sudan war and inflation leave families struggling to survive in Khartoum

In Khartoum, 39-year-old Rasha Abdelaziz Musa sells tea for seven hours a day to support her four children, but rising food prices have made her earnings insufficient. Her husband, a member of Sudan’s military, has been on the front lines for more than eight months; she has not heard from him for months, and he has sent no money. Feeding the family costs about 40,000 Sudanese pounds a day, and Musa sometimes ends the day in debt to food traders. Ahmed Youssef, 61, who supports a household of 12 through work at a butcher shop and occasional livestock deals, says his irregular income no longer covers daily expenses.
