Last update: 11 hours ago

Product Recall: Woolworths has recalled WBeauty Complete Clarifying Shampoo after the National Consumer Commission flagged Pluralibacter gergoviae in a limited batch (SKU 6009233284823), sold across several countries including Botswana, with refunds offered. Energy & Infrastructure: Aliko Dangote set September 30 for the Lamu Oil Refinery groundbreaking and said the Dangote refinery IPO could open within 10–12 days, while Botswana President Duma Boko pressed for big-ticket investment and rail-linked industrial demand. Regional Fuel Security: Zimbabwe and Mozambique launched Phase II upgrades to the Beira–Feruka corridor, lifting pumping capacity from 3 million to 5 million cubic metres by end-2027 to create a fuel buffer for SADC. Digital Expansion: WIOCC secured $300m to expand Africa’s digital infrastructure, including data centres and fibre and subsea cable assets. Fuel Retail Oversight: Botswana’s BERA gave fuel stations a three-month ultimatum to fix safety and environmental breaches or face closures and licence action. Capital Markets: Continental Reinsurance Holdings is set to list on the Botswana Stock Exchange via a roughly P2.1bn IPO, a major test for investor appetite.
