Apellis Pharmaceuticals Announces Inducement Grants Under Nasdaq Listing Rule 5635(c)(4)

The energy sector in West Africa, dominated by oil and gas production, has long been the backbone of regional economies. However, as global investors, regulators, and communities demand greater accountability, Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) reporting has become a critical challenge. The region’s resource-dependent economies face unique obstacles, including fragmented data systems, regulatory inconsistencies, and limited technological infrastructure. Emerging technologies like Artificial Intelligence (AI) offer transformative solutions to these ESG reporting challenges, enabling the sector to transition from mere extraction to responsible and transparent operations. The energy sector in West Africa relies on a patchwork of manual data collection systems that often lack standardization. This leads to incomplete or inaccurate ESG data, making it difficult to generate credible reports. ESG regulations in the region vary significantly across countries, with some lacking formal frameworks altogether. For companies operating across borders, compliance becomes a daunting task. As companies face increasing pressure to demonstrate sustainability, the risk of greenwashing—where entities misrepresent their ESG credentials—has risen sharply, further eroding stakeholder trust. Issues like oil spills, deforestation, and community displacement are central to ESG concerns in the region. However, companies often lack the tools to measure and report the social and environmental impact accurately. Artificial intelligence has emerged as a game-changer for ESG reporting. Below are key applications of AI that can help reshape ESG reporting in West Africa’s energy sector: Data aggregation and integration: AI-powered tools can aggregate data from multiple sources, such as IoT sensors on oil rigs, satellite imagery, and government databases. These tools not only ensure consistency but also reduce human error and improve the speed of reporting. For example, satellite-based AI solutions can monitor oil spills and detect deforestation near energy projects, providing real-time environmental data for ESG reports. Data validation and anomaly detection: Machine learning algorithms can validate data integrity by cross-referencing information from disparate sources. AI can compare energy output figures with emission levels to ensure consistency, flagging anomalies indicative of underreporting or misrepresentation. Regulatory alignment through NLP: Natural Language Processing (NLP) algorithms can analyse local and international regulatory texts, helping companies understand and align their ESG reports with the relevant frameworks. AI systems can map company activities to compliance requirements across ECOWAS countries, streamlining multi-jurisdictional reporting. Real-time monitoring and proactive response: AI enables continuous monitoring of environmental and social metrics, ensuring that reports reflect real-time performance rather than outdated information. Companies can also use this data to respond proactively to stakeholder concerns. Greenwashing detection: By leveraging AI for pattern recognition, stakeholders can identify discrepancies between reported ESG metrics and actual performance. This deters companies from inflating their sustainability credentials. Predictive analytics for risk mitigation: AI can also predict potential environmental incidents, such as oil spills or pipeline failures, based on historical data. This helps companies prepare and include risk mitigation strategies in their ESG reports. Resource optimisation and environmental footprint tracking: AI models can optimise resource use and track the environmental footprint of energy projects, ensuring more sustainable extraction processes. Machine learning models can predict water usage in oil extraction, helping companies minimise overuse and report efficiency improvements. Blockchain integration for data integrity: Coupled with AI, blockchain technology can create immutable records of ESG-related data, ensuring transparency and building stakeholder trust. A blockchain-backed AI system could verify carbon offset claims by linking them to on-ground renewable energy projects in the region. The benefits of AI-enhanced ESG reporting are significant: Improved credibility through accurate, data-backed insights. Regulatory confidence through automated compliance with evolving standards. Investor trust is driven by transparency. Operational efficiency through reduced time and cost associated with ESG reporting. As West Africa’s energy sector grapples with the dual imperatives of economic growth and environmental responsibility, adopting AI for ESG reporting is no longer optional. By addressing data fragmentation, regulatory challenges, and greenwashing risks, AI can help companies transition to a more transparent and sustainable model. Governments, corporations, and investors must collaborate to deploy AI solutions tailored to the region’s unique needs, ensuring that the energy sector becomes a leader in responsible resource management. The journey from extraction to responsibility begins with accurate ESG reporting—and AI is the bridge.

"They stop us and impose fines, but let autorickshaws pass unchecked right in front of them. If the rules apply to us, why not to them?" said several residents. Citizens point to an apparent dual system of traffic laws in Bokaro — strict enforcement for private vehicles (two-wheelers, cars, and SUVs) versus leniency for autorickshaws and commercial vehicles. While private vehicle owners face penalties for minor violations like not wearing helmets or seat belts, autorickshaws allegedly continue overloading passengers, operating without proper registration numbers, and driving recklessly. Similarly, sand-laden tractors reportedly operate freely without scrutiny. Rajesh Kumar from Sector 12, said, “It's frustrating to see how we're fined for even the smallest mistake, while autorickshaws break rules and go unchecked.” Another resident, Shyam Kumar, highlighted the issue of overloaded autorickshaws operating without registration numbers facing no consequences. Local businessman Suresh Kumar emphasized the need for equitable enforcement, stating, "We want fair treatment. If the law applies to private vehicles, it should apply to autorickshaws too. Why the double standards?" Responding to the claims, DSP traffic Vidya Shankar said, “The law is equal for everyone. Whosoever violates rules will face action. Autorickshaws are also being checked." District transport officer Vandana Swejwalkar said, “I have instructed to take action against all those caught violating road safety norms. We are also checking autorickshaw papers, including those ferrying passengers and schoolchildren. Several points across the district have been identified for camera installation to ensure comprehensive monitoring." We also published the following articles recently Autorickshaws flouting rules not penalised in Bokaro: Locals Bokaro residents are protesting what they perceive as biased traffic law enforcement. Private vehicle drivers report being penalized for minor infractions while autorickshaws routinely flout regulations, including overloading and operating without proper documentation, with apparent impunity. Over 400 school vans, autorickshaws fined for traffic violations Vadodara police penalized over 400 school vans and autorickshaws for traffic violations during a recent safety drive. Following a series of accidents, authorities met with drivers to emphasize traffic regulations. The week-long operation revealed rampant overcrowding, leading to 85 vehicle detentions and fines totaling Rs 2,26,500. Minor offenses resulted in fines, prompting corrective actions for safer transportation practices. Crackdown on errant autorickshaw drivers in western suburbs A weekend crackdown by Andheri RTO and traffic police netted 64 errant auto drivers in Mumbai's western suburbs. Over 100 autos were inspected, leading to Rs 2 lakh in fines for offences like refusal, overcharging, uniform violations, and invalid documentation. Authorities are targeting hotspots like stations and commercial areas. Stay updated with the latest news on Times of India . Don't miss daily games like Crossword , Sudoku , and Mini Crossword .

Commanders place kicker Austin Seibert on injured reserve

PORT-AU-PRINCE, Haiti (AP) — Haiti’s online media association said two reporters were killed and several others were wounded in a gang attack on Tuesday on the reopening of Port-au-Prince’s biggest public hospital. Street gangs have taken over an estimated 85% of Haiti’s capital, Port-au-Prince, and they forced the closure of the General Hospital early this year. Authorities had pledged to reopen the facility Tuesday but as journalists gathered to cover the event, suspected gang members opened fire in a vicious Christmas Eve attack. Robest Dimanche, a spokesman for the Online Media Collective, identified the dead journalists as Markenzy Nathoux and Jimmy Jean. Dimanche said an unspecified number of reporters had also been wounded in the attack, which he blamed on the Viv Ansanm coalition of gangs. Haiti’s interim president, Leslie Voltaire, said in an address to the nation that journalists and police were among the victims of the attack. He did not specify how many casualties there were, or give a breakdown for the dead or wounded. “I send my sympathies to the people who were victims, the national police and the journalists,” Voltaire said, pledging “this crime is not going to go unpunished.” A video posted online by the reporters trapped inside the hospital showed what appeared to be two lifeless bodies of men on stretchers, their clothes bloodied. One of the men had a lanyard with a press credential around his neck. Radio Télé Métronome initially reported that seven journalists and two police officers were wounded. Police and officials did not immediately respond to calls for information on the attack. Street gangs have taken over an estimated 85% of Haiti’s capital, Port-au-Prince. They forced the closure of the General Hospital early this year during violence that also targeted the main international airport and Haiti’s two largest prisons. Authorities had pledged to reopen the facility Tuesday but as journalists gathered to cover the event, suspected gang members opened fire. Video posted online earlier showed reporters inside the building and at least three lying on the floor, apparently wounded. That video could also not be immediately verified. Johnson “Izo” André, considered Haiti’s most powerful gang leader and part of a gang known as Viv Ansanm, which that has taken control of much of Port-au-Prince , posted a video on social media claiming responsibility for the attack. The video said the gang coalition had not authorized the hospital’s reopening. Haiti has seen journalists targeted before. In 2023, two local journalists were killed in the space of a couple of weeks — radio reporter Dumesky Kersaint was fatally shot in mid-April that year, while journalist Ricot Jean was found dead later that month. In July, former Prime Minister Garry Conille visited the Hospital of the State University of Haiti, more widely known as the General Hospital, after authorities regained control of it from gangs. The hospital had been left ravaged and strewn with debris. Walls and nearby buildings were riddled with bullet holes, signaling fights between police and gangs. The hospital is across the street from the national palace, the scene of several battles in recent months. Gang attacks have pushed Haiti’s health system to the brink of collapse with looting, setting fires, and destroying medical institutions and pharmacies in the capital. The violence has created a surge in patients and a shortage of resources to treat them. Haiti’s health care system faces additional challenges during the rainy season, which is likely to increase the risk of water-borne diseases. Poor conditions in camps and makeshift settlements have heightened the risk of diseases like cholera, with over 84,000 suspected cases in the country, according to UNICEF.
