LAGOS, July 12 (Reuters) &#8211; Nigeria&#8217;s Lagos state faces a &#8220;potential third wave&#8221; of coronovirus infections, its governor said in a statement.
He warned of fines or even imprisonment for those who break rules to contain the virus and said Lagos state would step up its vaccination campaign, following the detection of the highly infectious Delta variant in an incoming traveller.
Nigeria, Africa&#8217;s most populous nation, has not been as hard hit by the COVID-19 pandemic as other parts of the continent, with just over 168,000 cases and 2,124 deaths confirmed since the outbreak began.
But Nation Centre for Disease Control officials last week confirmed that they had detected the Delta variant, putting officials nationwide on alert. The NCDC did not say when the infected traveller had arrived.
&#8220;From the beginning of July, we started to experience a steep increase in the number of daily confirmed cases, with the test positivity rate going from 1.1% at the end of June 2021 to its current rate of 6.6% as at 8th of July 2021,&#8221; Lagos state governor Babajide Sanwo-Olu said in a statement. &#8220;The rapid increase within a week gives great cause for concern.&#8221;
Lagos state, home to the commercial capital, has been the epicentre of Nigeria&#8217;s COVID-19 pandemic. It has confirmed 60,366 cases since the outbreak began &#8211; nearly 36% of the country&#8217;s total.
There are self-isolation requirements for all incoming passengers, and arrivals from red-list countries Brazil, India, South Africa, and Turkey, must quarantine in a government facility.
But Sanwo-Olu said that 15% of Lagos state arrivals from red-list nations had absconded, while authorities could not reach 18% of other incoming passengers.
He warned of sanctions including fines, imprisonment and deportation for rule breakers, and said Lagos state was &#8220;exploring all avenues possible&#8221; to increase vaccine access.
Just 1% of Lagos state residents have received two doses of vaccines against the novel coronavirus. (Reporting by Libby George; editing by Barbara Lewis)

Nigeria’s Lagos state faces “potential third wave” of COVID-19

* South Africa extends COVID-19 measures
* EM stocks recover from last week&#8217;s losses
* Delta COVID variant could weigh on EMFX- Analyst
By Ambar Warrick
July 12 (Reuters) &#8211; South Africa&#8217;s rand tumbled on Monday as violence broke out after the jailing of former President Jacob Zuma, while most emerging market stocks and currencies appeared to have stabilized after losses last week.
The rand sank more than 1% to a low of 14.3658 to the dollar, leading losses across emerging market currencies. Violence over Zuma&#8217;s 15-month prison term spread to Johannesburg over the weekend, resulting in property damage and road closures.
Zuma, who was given the sentence for defying a court order to cooperate with an inquiry into corruption during his tenure, is set to challenge it during a hearing on Monday.
South African stocks fell 0.6%. The rand is still the top performing emerging market currency this year, trading more than 2% higher.
South Africa extended tight COVID-19 restrictions by another 14 days as it grapples with a damaging third wave of COVID-19 infections, particularly of the more contagious Delta variant. The move could upset an otherwise steady economic recovery in the country.
Broader emerging market currencies traded steady after logging losses last week. MSCI&#8217;s index of currencies rose 0.1%, recovering from a 0.4% loss last week.
But concerns over the rapid spread of the Delta variant are likely to cap any gains this week, with upcoming U.S. inflation data also expected to curb sentiment.
Investors also digesting the implications of a reserve requirement rate (RRR) cut in China from last week, which analysts say could imply a slowing economic recovery.
&#8220;EM FX came under great pressure last week as broad risk off sentiment hit global markets&#8230; The Chinese RRR cut helped risk sentiment recover on Friday, but this is likely to remain short-lived if the delta variant continues to spread,&#8221; analysts at Brown Brothers Harriman wrote in a note.
Commodity-linked currencies extended their losses as the spread of the Delta variant threatened to weigh on demand.
Russia&#8217;s rouble lost 0.6% as oil prices dipped, while softer gold and base metal prices weighed on the rand. The rouble had lagged its peers in Europe, the Middle East and Africa last week, falling 1.7%.
Emerging market stocks recovered slightly from steep losses last week, with MSCI&#8217;s index of stocks rising about 0.5%.

EMERGING MARKETS-Civil unrest, virus woes see South African rand drop over 1%

JOHANNESBURG, July 12 (Reuters) &#8211; Supporters of South Africa&#8217;s former President Jacob Zuma looted shops and set fire to a mall on Monday, before a court hearing in which he will challenge his prison sentence for failing to attend a corruption inquiry, local TV stations reported.
The violence followed a weekend of unrest by stick-wielding protesters in South Africa. It mainly concentrated around Zuma&#8217;s home province of KwaZulu-Natal (KZN), with some spilling into the main commercial city of Johannesburg.
Television channel eNCA showed footage on Monday of a blaze from the roof of what it said a mall in Pietermaritzburg, eastern South Africa, where Zuma was due to have his legal challenge heard. The channel said the motorway leading to the city had been closed to prevent further the trouble.
A police spokesperson did not immediately respond to a request for comment.
The constitutional court sentenced Zuma to a 15-month jail term last month for defying its order to give evidence at an inquiry investigating high-level corruption during his nine years in power until 2018.
The decision to jail him was the culmination of a legal drama seen as a major test of post-apartheid South Africa&#8217;s ability to enforce the rule of law against powerful people.
But Zuma&#8217;s core supporters, echoing the former president&#8217;s line, say that he is victim of a political witch hunt orchestrated by allies of his rival, President Cyril Ramaphosa.
Ramaphosa said on Sunday there was no justification for violence and that it was damaging efforts to rebuild the economy amid the COVID-19 pandemic. (Reporting by Tim Cocks; Editing by Edmund Blair)

Looting, arson before hearing of S.Africa’s former leader Zuma

* Malawi has a shortfall of 36,000 primary school classrooms
* 3D printing is faster and greener than conventional construction
* Many schools in Africa suffer from overcrowding, dropouts
By Charles Pensulo
SALIMA, Malawi, July 12 (Thomson Reuters Foundation) &#8211; G athered under the hot sun, dozens of women danced and sang in jubilation as children from the village of Salima, in central Malawi, started their first day at their new 3D-printed school, which had been built from the ground up in only 15 hours.
Made of concrete placed layer by layer through a computer-controlled nozzle, the school is made up of a single room with rounded corners and is big enough to accommodate 50 students.
Olipa Elisa said her 10-year-old son used to have to hike 5km (3 miles) every day to the nearest school, often arriving late and exhausted.
&#8220;I am very excited that we now have a school closer to my home, and my child will not have to take the long journey,&#8221; said Elisa, 38. &#8220;What we need is more of these learning blocks to accommodate other classes.&#8221;
Run by 14Trees, a joint venture between Swiss cement manufacturer LafargeHolcim and British development finance agency CDC Group, the project was faster, cheaper and less energy-intensive than conventional construction, said 14Trees managing director Francois Perrot.
Its success shows how 3D printing could be transformative in Africa, where there is a dire shortage of classroom space, he said.
The U.N. children&#8217;s agency UNICEF estimates there is a shortfall of 36,000 primary school classrooms in Malawi alone, a gap that Perrot estimates could be closed in 10 years using 3D-printing technology.
&#8220;Based on our calculations, if we rely on conventional methods it would take about 70 years to clear that backlog,&#8221; he told the Thomson Reuters Foundation in an email.
Large-scale 3D printing is gaining steam around the world, with some projects producing a home in just 24 hours of printing time for a few thousand dollars.
By the time 14Trees had built the Salima school &#8211; which the company says is the first 3D-printed school in Malawi &#8211; it had already printed the walls of a prototype house in the capital Lilongwe in just 12 hours, compared to almost four days using conventional methods.
As well as cutting the time it takes to build a structure, 3D printing also reduces the quantity of materials needed and the amount of carbon emissions produced by up to 70% compared to conventional methods, said Perrot.
As an example of the potential cost savings, he pointed to the &#8220;ink&#8221;, a dry mixture of cement, sand and additives that is mixed with water to form the concrete used to print the walls.
Perrot said that ink could be made in Malawi instead of being imported, as it was for the pilot school project.
&#8220;Manufacturing the ink on the ground will dramatically reduce the cost of the building for buyers and create local jobs in manufacturing,&#8221; he said.
&#8220;We (also) now have an indigenous Malawian team fully trained to operate the printer.&#8221;

&#8216;DOUBLE DISADVANTAGE&#8217;
Limbani Nsapato, country director for Edukans, an international development organisation focused on education, said the shortage of classrooms around Africa is an urgent but overlooked issue.
The average ratio of pupils to teachers in Africa is 40-to-1, he said, but with only about 47,000 classrooms for nearly 5,420,000 students, the ratio in Malawi is closer to 115-to-1.
Overcrowded classrooms lead to poor quality of education because teachers find it difficult to engage with every student in a class, he said.
To accommodate their large numbers of students, many schools move classes outside, but when the weather is bad, classes are often cancelled, Nsapato explained.
&#8220;Pupils who live far from school have a double disadvantage because apart from getting (stuck) in congested traffic, they also have to face the challenge of covering long distances, which makes them late for class,&#8221; he added.
&#8220;This makes them arrive at school tired, leading to poor concentration. Such students often drop out or repeat classes because of poor performance.&#8221;
Another company trying to solve that problem is Studio Mortazavi, a global architectural firm that has designed a 3D-printed school in Fianarantsoa, a city in southern Madagascar, for the U.S. nonprofit Thinking Huts.
The school, which is due to be built next year, will be made of concrete and locally sourced construction materials and powered by solar energy, said Amir Mortazavi, founder of Studio Mortazavi.
The project will comprise several pods that can serve different functions, including as classrooms, science labs and dance studios.
Maggie Grout, founder and CEO of Thinking Huts, which is also working with 14Trees on the Madagascar school project, said 3D printing should make the project scalable while keeping down carbon emissions.
But first, the organisation has to make sure it can get the printer to the remote rural areas where classrooms are most needed, so it is currently working on streamlining the printing process on a university campus in Madagascar, she said.
&#8220;Once we launch the first school and more people know about our vision, we hope to conceptualize a new printer that is specifically created to be more easily transported to the communities we work together with,&#8221; Grout said in an email.

COST
Catherine Sani, head of the Malawi Institute of Architects, worries that 3D printing may not be the cost-saving solution it is being touted as.
&#8220;Given our gross need for quick classrooms, this would indeed seem like a good option given the speed in production,&#8221; she said.
&#8220;However, we also note (that) this method is quick on a single site, but for multiple sites more 3D-printing equipment would be required, thus making this system very high-cost compared to other methods.&#8221;
As companies work on making 3D printing more portable and affordable, Tom Bowden, a trustee for Britain-based charity Building Malawi, said the technology holds promise in parts of the world where lack of funding can often stall or kill essential infrastructure projects.
His organisation builds schools, libraries and sports facilities which are operated by Malawian organisations.
Using earth bag construction or bricks and mortar, it costs about $20,000 to build a double classroom, Bowden said.
&#8220;The costs are high, we really can&#8217;t find cheaper solutions for the concrete floors, iron sheet roof and metal window frames (and) our build process takes about 10 weeks, depending on the specifications,&#8221; he said.
Given all of those issues, &#8220;3D printing sounds interesting,&#8221; he said. (Reporting by Charles Pensulo; Editing by Jumana Farouky and Zoe Tabary.

FEATURE-Can 3D-printed schools tackle Africa’s classroom shortage?

Jim Furyk held off all challengers and some severe weather to win the 2021 U.S. Senior Open on Sunday in Omaha, Neb.
Furyk took a four-shot lead into the final round after shooting a third-round 66, despite several delays and complications due to severe weather in the area. He carded a 1-over 71 Sunday to finish 7-under 273 and wrap things up at Omaha Country Club.
His main challengers were Canadian Mike Weir and Retief Goosen of South Africa, each of whom finished 4 under in a tie for second.
When Weir eagled on the sixth hole, Furyk might have been feeling the Canadian closing, but subsequent bogeys on Nos. 8 and 10 gave Furyk some needed space.
It wasn&#8217;t a perfect round for Furyk, who bogeyed and double-bogeyed on two of his first three holes. But he rallied with birdies on six, 13 and 16 to wrap up the championship.
Furyk might have had a little history on his side. Eighteen years after winning the U.S. Open for the only major victory of his career, he used strong rounds on Friday (64) and Saturday (66) &#8212; during the peak of the inclement weather &#8212; to push himself to the title.
He became the eighth player to win both the U.S. Open and U.S. Senior Open in his career, joining a list that includes Jack Nicklaus, Arnold Palmer, Gary Player and Lee Trevino.
Weir started the day seven shots back, but he pulled within three on multiple occasions, shooting a field-best-tying 67 on Sunday.
Goosen had birdies on two of his first six holes to help himself finish with a 69 on the day.
Several Americans finished in the top 10. Kevin Sutherland finished tied for fifth (1 under), Fred Couples landed at No. 7 (even), and Bob Estes, Jerry Kelly and Wes Short Jr. finished tied for eighth (1 over).
Other top-10 finishers included Australian Rod Pampling alone in fourth (3 under), German Bernhard Langer tied for fifth (1 under) and Spaniard Miguel Angel Jimenez tied for eighth (1 over).

European Tour Aberdeen Standard Investments Scottish Open Scores

By Robin Emmott
BRUSSELS, July 11 (Reuters) &#8211; A 90-year-old Belgian woman who died from COVID-19 in March had contracted two variants of coronavirus at the same time, which is believed to be the first documented case of its kind, a scientific congress and Belgian media said on Sunday.
The case, discussed at this year&#8217;s European Congress on Clinical Microbiology &amp; Infectious Diseases (ECCMID), shows that it is possible to catch two COVID-19 variants simultaneously, the society that organised the congress said in a statement.
The society said the woman became sick with Alpha and Beta types first identified in Britain and South Africa and her doctors said she could have contracted the infections from two different people.
The woman, who was treated at a hospital in Aalst near Brussels, had not been vaccinated, Belgium&#8217;s Dutch-language public broadcaster VRT said. Belgium, like much of the European Union, faced vaccine delivery problems early in 2021 and its vaccination programme started slowly, although the EU has now delivered vaccines to cover 70% of the population.
The society, citing discussions at the July 9-12 congress, said doctors believe it was the first documented case of its kind and, although rare, similar dual infections are happening.
&#8220;Both variants were circulating (in March) in Belgium,&#8221; molecular biologist Anne Vankeerberghen of the OLV hospital in Aalst said on VRT&#8217;s website.
&#8220;It is therefore probable that this woman was infected by two different people with two variants of the virus. Unfortunately, we do not know how this infection happened,&#8221; she said.
The European Commission, the EU executive, has warned that it expected the highly contagious Delta variant of the coronavirus to become dominant in Europe this summer, citing estimates from the EU disease prevention agency. (Reporting by Robin Emmott. Editing by Jane Merriman)

JOHANNESBURG, July 11 (Reuters) &#8211; Shops were looted overnight and a section of the M2 highway was closed in Johannesburg on Sunday, as sporadic acts of violence following the jailing of former South African President Jacob Zuma spread to the country&#8217;s main economic hub.
Violence had mainly been concentrated in Zuma&#8217;s home province of KwaZulu-Natal (KZN), where he started serving a 15-month sentence for contempt of court on Wednesday night.
Police said criminals were taking advantage of the anger some feel over Zuma&#8217;s imprisonment to steal and cause damage.
The Johannesburg Metropolitan Police Department (JMPD) said there had been looting in the Alexandra township and Jeppestown suburb. The M2 was closed off after there were reports of shots being fired at passing vehicles.
Protests were ongoing in the Hillbrow neighbourhood on Sunday morning, JMPD spokesman Wayne Minnaar said.
KZN police spokesman Jay Naicker said there had also been looting in eThekwini, the municipality that includes Durban, and that nine people had been arrested, taking the number of arrests in the province since Friday to 37.
&#8220;We saw a lot of criminals or opportunistic individuals trying to enrich themselves during this period,&#8221; he said.
A senior police official in Gauteng, the province where Johannesburg is located, told public broadcaster SABC: &#8220;What is happening in KwaZulu-Natal, there is a link in a way with Gauteng,&#8221; Major General Tommy Mthombeni said.
Zuma was given the jail term for defying an order from the constitutional court to give evidence at an inquiry that is investigating high-level corruption during his nine years in power until 2018.
He denies there was widespread corruption under his leadership but has refused to cooperate with the inquiry that was set up in his final weeks in office.
Zuma has challenged his sentence in the constitutional court, partly on the grounds of his alleged frail health and the risk of catching COVID-19. That challenge will be heard on Monday. (Reporting by Alexander Winning Editing by Frances Kerry)

Violence spreads to South Africa’s economic hub in wake of Zuma jailing

July 10 (Reuters) &#8211; Ten-man Raja Casablanca scored two early goals but had to hang on grimly to win the African Confederation Cup for the second time in four years with a 2-1 victory over JS Kabylie of Algeria in Saturday’s final.
Soufiane Rahimi put Raja ahead after five minutes at the end of a sweeping move and then Congolese Ben Malango was offered time and space to swivel inside the penalty area and strike home from close range for a second goal after 14 minutes.
But JS Kabylie pulled one back with the first attack of the second half of the final, which was played in Benin, as Mohamed Zakaria Boulahia finished smartly at the end of a protracted goalmouth scramble.
The Algerians received a boost when Raja had Omar Arjoune sent off after connecting with an opponent’s face with a high boot just past the hour mark.
Referee Victor Gomes of South Africa at first handed him a yellow card but after being told to review the decision on the pitchside VAR screen, it was changed to a red.
Raja, who previously won African club football’s secondary competition in 2018, held out to spark boisterous celebrations at the final whistle. (Writing by Mark Gleeson in Pretoria; Editing by Toby Davis)
