If you’re wondering what shook Africa in March, you’ve come to the right spot. We pulled together the two stories that grabbed headlines on our site – a political crisis deep in South Sudan and an injury blow for Inter Milan’s forward Marcus Thuram. Both pieces mattered, whether you follow government news or love football.
The arrest warrant issued for Vice President Riek Machar set off alarms across Juba and beyond. The move broke the fragile 2018 peace agreement that was meant to keep fighting at bay. Our coverage dug into why the charges stayed secret, how opposition groups reacted, and what the UN and U.S. are saying about a possible dialogue.
We also explored how this development could ripple through the region. Border towns that rely on trade with South Sudan risk disruptions, and refugees in neighboring countries might see new waves of displacement. The article gave you practical tips – like which NGOs were stepping up and where to find real‑time updates if you’re tracking the story.
On the sports side, Marcus Thuram’s ankle injury forced him out of Inter’s Coppa Italia quarter‑final against Lazio. The forward felt the knock during a match with Fiorentina, and the pain lingered into the crucial clash with Juventus earlier in the week.
Our piece broke down what the injury means for Inter’s lineup, who could step up, and how it might affect their title push against Napoli later in Serie A. We added a quick rundown of Thuram’s recent performances so you can see why his absence is such a setback. If you’re betting on the game or just want to know who to watch, we gave you clear alternatives like Lautaro Martínez and Nicolo Barella.
Both stories show how fast things can change in Africa – from political negotiations that could spark conflict to sports headlines that shift team strategies overnight. At Zulu Surf Riders Daily we aim to keep you informed with short, direct reporting that skips the fluff.
