*Congo: Pygmy women leader appointed minister in South Kivu*
On June 5th, Governor Marcellin Chisambo announced a reshuffle of the
government of the Congolese province of South Kivu. Three weeks ago, three
ministers were thrown out following a motion of no confidence in the
provincial Parliament. One of the new ministers is Adolphine Byayuwa Muley,
42 years old. She will lead the ministry of environment and agriculture.

*Zimbabwe elections: How Tsvangirai can beat Mugabe *
On Friday the Constitutional Court of Zimbabwe ruled that the upcoming
elections must be held by the 31st of July. This development confirms the
suspicions of many that ZANU-PF intends to hold elections immediately after
the expiry of the coalition government (29th June). This then leaves just a
few weeks to carry out political and security sector reforms necessary for
a free and fair election.
Triggered by an application challenging President Mugabe to announce an
election date, the Constitutional Court’s ruling has been interpreted by
opposition groups as yet another trick from the ZANU–PF political playbook.
The allegation is that through this ruling (by a partisan court) ZANU–PF
has effectively declared an election date.

*Libya: anarchy reigns*
May 2013 was just another humdrum month in Libya. It witnessed more deadly
explosions, a prolonged siege of government ministries, the disappearance
of a popular militia leader, the closure of the Sebha airport by militiamen
as retaliation, a declaration of Cyrenaica’s semi-autonomy by self-styled
provincial leaders, the resignation of Libya’s president, and the start of
the witch hunt to cleanse the public sphere from those who served the
Qadhafi regime in any capacity.

*On Darfur and the death of Mohammad Bashar*
The second honeymoon of Darfur’s Doha peace process lasted just over a
