What can Africa expect in 2025?

In yesterday’s podcast, Alan discussed the major events of last year with BBC colleagues Ruth Nesoba, Chris Ewokor and Mpho Lakaje. But can they predict what’s to come next year?

Yesterday Alan and his BBC colleagues from South, East and West Africa gathered for a reminder of the big stories of 2024 – and to discuss how they’d shaped the continent.

Today they pick up and look forward to the next year: so what can we expect to see in the news in 2025?

With presenter Alan Kasujja (@Kasujja), Africa Daily’s @Mpholakaje in Johannesburg, East Africa Deployments Editor @RuthNesoba in Nairobi, and BBC journalist @Chrisewokor in Abuja.

NOTE: Since the recording of this discussion the estimate for the number of dead in Mozambique has risen to 278 (source: local NGOs via Integrity Magazine).
