The African Chronicle is an independent Pan-African news publication. Africa, told by us.
Too many African stories are still told from outside the continent. We report from inside it, with journalists who know the places, people and politics they cover.
What you can rely on us for
African accountability reporting, with particular strength in governance, public money, infrastructure and the consequences for ordinary people.
Before we publish, we ask what a story reveals, explains or establishes that the announcement itself does not. When we investigate, we follow the story after publication and record what happened next.
What we cover
- Investigations: public money, governance and corporate conduct, with every investigation kept as a file you can follow from the first revelation to the responses and the outcome.
- Politics and governance: elections, parliaments, councils and the regional bodies that shape the continent.
- Economy and business: trade, infrastructure, financing and the businesses competing for Africa's future.
- Culture, sport and the diaspora
- Voices: signed opinion and analysis. Every opinion piece carries the name of the person who wrote it.
