  • Deep Breathing Is the Order of The
    Hof Communications Cape Town 10 December 2017 This editorial is the opinion of the editors of ParlyReport Deep breathing is the order of the day fter having endured so many of President Jacob Zuma’s cabinet reshuffles, most of them in his A own interests, it is painful to think that in all probability there is still one more shuffle to go. In the past, this regular passing of the hat has allowed minister after minister to side-step the truth and report to Parliament on a “it wasn’t me” basis. It has been the bane of Zuma’s presidency and in many cases the cover up for wholesale corruption and the ineptitude of some of those anointed. When the music stops… So, it is with trepidation that Parliament awaits another round of new ministerial faces which will probably coincide with a new round of appointments of chairperson of committees, let alone some new faces in the benches. This is all at a time when the economy sits at tipping point. Once again, the parliamentary telephone directory will be at the mercy of ever-changing power battles within the governing party, a minor matter it may seem, but which somehow represents the country-wide breakdown in communications across of whole section of the governance and political spectrum. It occurs every time cabinet portfolios get switched around. This waiting period for new faces is the same as the usual vacuum before an election. In this case, however, the ordinary Joe has no say in outcome. In an election, one sees a manifesto of beliefs, values, policies and an appeal to the electorate.

  • Nigeria: from Goodluck Jonathan to Muhammadu Buhari ______
    NNoottee ddee ll’’IIffrrii _______________________ Nigeria: From Goodluck Jonathan to Muhammadu Buhari _______________________ Benjamin Augé December 2015 This study has been realized within the partnership between the French Institute of International Relations (Ifri) and OCP Policy Center The French Institute of International Relations (Ifri) is a research center and a forum for debate on major international political and economic issues. Headed by Thierry de Montbrial since its founding in 1979, Ifri is a non- governmental and a non-profit organization. As an independent think tank, Ifri sets its own research agenda, publishing its findings regularly for a global audience. Using an interdisciplinary approach, Ifri brings together political and economic decision-makers, researchers and internationally renowned experts to animate its debate and research activities. With offices in Paris and Brussels, Ifri stands out as one of the rare French think tanks to have positioned itself at the very heart of European debate. OCP Policy Center is a Moroccan policy-oriented think tank whose mission is to contribute to knowledge sharing and to enrich reflection on key economic and international relations issues, considered as essential to the economic and social development of Morocco, and more broadly to the African continent. For this purpose, the think tank relies on independent research, a network of partners and leading research associates, in the spirit of an open exchange and debate platform. By offering a "Southern perspective" from a middle-income African country, on major international debates and strategic challenges that the developing and emerging countries are facing, OCP Policy Center aims to make a meaningful contribution to four thematic areas: agriculture, environment and food security; economic and social development; commodity economics and finance; and “Global Morocco”, a program dedicated to understanding key strategic regional and global evolutions shaping the future of Morocco.

[2] The oil is 5 million barrels of Basrah Light (‘Basrah’, an Iraq oil) and 5 million barrels of Bonny Light (‘Bonny’, a Nigerian oil). Basrah is less valuable than Bonny because it is heavier and has more sulphur. SFF has six underground storage tanks at Saldanha Bay with a combined capacity of 44,4 million barrels.
