Angola plans to cut fuel subsidies without raising prices, Bloomberg reports, as the country seeks to reduce fiscal pressure from oil price volatility.

The move comes amid a draft budget projecting 5.5% GDP growth in 2027 if oil stays at $71 per barrel, according to CNBC Africa.

Meanwhile, Luanda's population is projected to surpass Lagos by 2050, the World Bank notes, as urbanization accelerates across sub-Saharan Africa.

TAAG Angola Airlines has announced new flights to Cape Verde in December, per Rustourismnews.
