Ghana warns of power cuts while Italy's Eni works to boost gas supply
Italian energy group Eni will temporarily suspend operations at a gas plant in Ghana on Sunday to implement a supply increase, likely resulting in power cuts, the West African country said on Wednesday. Ghana, the world's second biggest cocoa producer, has been trying to ramp up oil and gas production to increase revenues and prevent fossil fuels from becoming stranded. It has reached a deal with Eni to increase natural gas supply by 30-million standard cubic feet per day to 270-million, the energy ministry said in a statement on X on Wednesday. To facilitate the upgrade, Eni will temporarily halt some operations, resulting in "an impact on the availability of gas for power generation", the statement said. Speaking at an event on Monday in the southern city of Kumasi, energy minister John Jinapor said Ghana was "likely to experience some interactions or interruption of power" while the plant was offline. "Once the work is done, we shall stabilise supply of gas, increase gas production and that will improve the delivery of power," he said. Eni's Offshore Cape Three Points project off Ghana's Atlantic coast meets 65% of the country's energy demand, according to the Italian company's website. Last week, Tullow Oil said in a statement it was planning to increase the supply of gas from its Jubilee and TEN projects to about 130-million standard cubic feet per day.

'Our kids were murdered and now their killers are taunting us from behind bars'
Max Dixon and Jimmy Mizen were both 16 when they were murdered and, although the cases were 16 years apart, both their killers have since been able to "glorify" the attacks Two mums whose sons were murdered are calling for social media giants to do more to stop inmates posting from jail - after both killers "glorified" the teens' deaths online. Leanne Ekland's son Max Dixon and Margaret Mizen's son Jimmy Mizen were both aged 16 when they were murdered - almost 16 years apart. Max was killed alongside his best friend, Mason Rist, 15, after being brutally attacked outside Mason's home in Knowle, Bristol, on January 27, 2024, with a machete. Five people - including Kodishai Wescott, 17 - were jailed for life in December 2024 at Bristol Crown Court for their murders. In January 2025, it emerged that Wescott had posted "offensive" rap tracks about the murders on Snapchat while in jail. Margaret's son was killed on May 10, 2008, by Jake Fahri, now 35, who threw a glass dish which shattered and severed an artery in Jimmy's neck at a bakery in Lee, South-East London. Fahri received a life sentence for his death but was released on licence in June 2023. However, in January 2025, he was recalled by the Probation Service for "shamelessly boasting" about his crime in a rap song that was shared online. It was claimed Fahri was the masked drill artist TEN whose music had been played on BBC 1xtra. The mums are now calling on the Ministry of Justice (MoJ) and social media companies to do more to stop inmates from posting on social media from jail and "glorifying" their crimes. Leanne, 45, a kitchen manager, from Knowle, Bristol, said: "It makes me sick to my stomach with anger. He's [Wescott] a despicable excuse of a person, not just for snatching Max from us, but to gloat about it. "He is glorifying the beautiful life of Max that he stole. He was told in court that he was showing remorse, but I didn't see any of that, and this proves to me that there was no remorse whatsoever." Margaret, 72, self-employed, from Lewisham, southeast London, added: "Finding out about the music he'd [Fahri] made was a complete shock. It brought up a lot of emotions for the family. It was a difficult time. "Why should he become a celebrity off the back of Jimmy's death? I can't help but think he was doing it in prison too. I think it's glorifying violence amongst young people." With the heartbroken mothers meeting for the first time recently, they have now issued a joint call for more to be done to stop killers from having access to social media to gloat about their crimes. They are not just putting pressure on prisons to do more, but also social media companies to act faster in taking down posts and accounts sharing similar content. Westcott's offensive video included rap lyrics which referenced to "33 seconds" - the time it took for him and three others to ambush and kill Max and Mason. It has been reported that Fahri was masked drill artist, TEN, whose music featured violent themes and concealed his identity with a balaclava in videos. In one song, he appears to reference Jimmy's death as "stuck it on a man and watched him melt like Ben and Jerry's". "These low lives are in prison for a reason, they shouldn't have phone privileges, let alone been allowed to upload anything like this in the first place." Leanne said. "Me and Margaret will never stop grieving our precious sons, having disrespectful content like that being posted is beyond insulting." Margaret added: "Even if Fahri is taunting me through music - I will not give up forgiveness, peace and hope. The day I drop to his level he's won. Leanne and I both have a common goal and sadly, too much in common. "Social media is a great concern due to the violence it attracts. Max's killer posted from prison, I can't confirm if Jimmy's killer did too but who knows - phones are too easily available there. There's lots of talking from the government and now I want to see some action." A spokesperson for the Ministry of Justice has previously said it had disabled a number of accounts relating to the allegations of social media misuse.
