His presence drew a diverse crowd, from the elderly to children and those dressed in both rags and finery, as they eagerly sought to catch a glimpse of him after years away.

Just days before, he had attended a church service in Freetown, reconnecting with his…

Leaders of the Democracy for Citizens Party (DCP) have rebuked Deputy President Kithure Kindiki over his recent designation as the spokesman for the Mt Kenya region. At a gathering in Embu County, supporters of former Deputy President Rigathi Gachagua, led by Nyandarua Senator John Methu, asserted that such titles are not decided by elders alone. “The people of the region, not the elders, determine who the kingpin is. Kindiki should stop assuming this title,” Methu stated in Kianjokoma, Manyatta Constituency. He emphasised that Gachagua remains the rightful representative for the region. The leaders expressed unity behind Gachagua, accusing President William…

As thousands of people visit the Bayeux Tapestry at the British Museum for the first time, locals in Bayeux, France, are feeling its absence keenly. Since the tapestry was sent to the UK in July, the town has seen a significant drop in tourist numbers, having been closed for renovations since September 2025. Mathis Laîné, who works at a nearby restaurant, noted a 20% decrease in lunchtime sales and at least a 10% drop in the evening following the museum’s closure. The tapestry, which depicts the Norman conquest of England, was on display in Bayeux for nearly 1,000 years before…

Former Sierra Leonean President Ernest Bai Koroma returned to the country on 6 September 2026 after the government dropped criminal charges against him. His return has been welcomed by the Economic Community of West African States (ECOWAS), with calls for national reconciliation and unity. Koroma expressed his commitment to fostering peace and advancing Sierra Leone’s development. His homecoming carries significant political weight, particularly for the All People’s Congress (APC) party. Many Sierra Leoneans draw parallels between Koroma’s journey and biblical narratives of return, such as that of Moses. While these comparisons should be made with caution, they highlight themes of…
