Malawi to lift visa restrictions

MALAWI - Visa-free travel is on the rise in Africa, with Malawi being the latest country to ease restrictions. Earlier this year, Kenya took an even bigger step, going visa-free for all visitors. The move falls in line with the African Union Agenda 2063. The flagship projects of Agenda 2063 are programmes and initiatives which have been identified as key to accelerating Africa’s economic growth and socio-development over a 50-year period. Kwame Senou, the Executive Director at The Holding Opinion and Public (THOP) Institute, a think tank that is committed to fostering Africas economic and human development, spoke to SABC News from Côte dIvoire.
